    No they where not, and I guess having no queue or 30 minute queue is better then 5 Minutes. From my experiences (someone that tries to speak up when there is any kind of drama) tends to get things sorted, because of this, I feel people overblow the situation because they do not know how to communicate, or kicking people that are causing trouble (pulling way too fast, being rude at elevators, etc) I seen "toxicity" on the reverse end too, a friend or two trying to hold the run hostage (a lot of times this is done with a friend being max level) where they could of just unsync it and not cause problems for 6 other people.

    With your tone, I wouldn't be shocked if you where part of that group. I did not cause problems for people, do not dare say such things to me. This is you making a post where your sig quote fits you well, is that why you do not understand the saying? Maybe you run into people telling you a lot for a reason.

    With your last line I addressed that, I did not know we where talking about the individual looking for the best exp. We were talking about making the roulette appealing to experienced players so new players were not waiting a long time in queue.

    ....whenever I want seems like a large waste of my small bit of time. So there's one less tank/healer that is going to be able to pull new people through MSQ.

    Just my perspective.
    I am sure that is insanely common

    Do you watch a movie, the same movie 1-3 times a day for a month? 2 months? even a movie you love a lot, doing that will make you hate at some point, the breaking point of that is different from person to person but it does not change a breaking point does exist. Queue times will skyrocket after a point when people are done "testing it" because it is simply boring to do the same thing over and over and over again , reading the same text/story cuz you know what happens.

    You cannot blame people for skipping the CS.

    used to, not anymore, very unlikely.

    MSQ roulette gives 200.
    Meridianum gives 120.
    Praetorium gives 200.

    New player bonus is on top of those.
    implying max level players care about poetics in the first place, and if they do they run ARF or something.

    Where =/= WERE.
    Where = a question or a statement of place.
    Were= to formerly be.

    .... Deny it all you like , besides weren't you done on the 6th? That was the last thing you posted in your own quitting thread about how you were going to quit since this game was soooo horrible and the devs are so greedy and oh they should make it like this game or that game , this is alpha-test level, they should be ashamed and this game is stuck in 2000 standards... .. Why does this matter to someone leaving the game?




    Or you're NOT quitting and just posting things to whine. You do not speak up for drama, you create drama.

    TONE?? what was offensive about my original post? Now I'm going to state things in a harsher manner because YES. I. DARE. I will state things how I see them and if I find I'm wrong I'll apologize, but everything that has been done to this roulette supports my observation. You keep making assumptions about my character and habits. I've run all these quests for people and NEVER skipped the CS unless someone else did first. If someone politely asked for the zerg to wait, I waited. Do NOT make judgements about my character without reason. I spend HOURS with learning parties doing encounters I know I can farm with others because it SUCKS trying to find another person to fill and hey, I'm enjoying playing the game and I like the fact I'm helping out.


    The people who rushed others through it WERE the ones who were there for quick XP. I never said it was WRONG, or that they should BE ASHAMED. Just that the people who wanted a quick blob of xp and tomes are NOT the people that SE wants running this particular MSQ stuff. They want the people doing the quest to experience the cutscenes at a decent pace and be able to enjoy the story. Being part of a PROBLEM doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person or evil or even impatient. Wanting quick xp is fine. Wanting quick tomes is fine. This roulette is just NOT for that anymore and if you ask for them to take it back to that or whine that it's not as efficient as it used to be you're obviously the kind of person who doesn't care about the experience of the newer players running alongside you and just cares about your xp per minute which is TOTALLY FINE, I may not agree with that philosophy but it doesn't make it WRONG. The changes made make it quite obvious that if the roulette doesn't meet your standards for leveling then this should no longer be a part of your roulette rotation. It appeals to those who would like to help, have some time and are ok with earning a decent amount of xp and poetic tomes (which are still useful post 70).

    DON'T queue if it's too low. If it gets slow enough SE will change things. They can measure these things and if newer players start complaining then things will be changed. It is far to soon to say this has killed or improved the MSQ queue.
