Alliance Raids and players not waiting for Cutscene Watchers

[Cheremia]

You're getting incredibly defensive over "Just say something when we zone in" - that's literally it. Ask, and I'll at least wait since I'll see it in the alliance chat, the orange is eye catching enough. Don't ask, and I just assume they don't really care about it.

I don't have the system messages in my chatlog, either.

Since I believe that to be enough, I'm not really arguing. It's sorta just how... y'know, social activities... work. And this response to it sort of baffles me.

Why am i defensive? I legit am chilling here, sorry if it comes across that way. Might just be the way I write. Am at work so i'm trying to write fast

I'm just saying - you want people to give you favors but don't give the favor of just paying attention back.
Orange/whatever your colors are, are more eyecatching than white, yes.

But it's also not ONLY in the system message, it's a flying text, it also shows above people and on their names if they do.
It IS clearly communicated and can easily be seen if you pay a little bit of attention.

You want something but give not paying attention to the ring staying longer than it does when everybody auto skips, not looking at your party list, seeing somebody watching cutscene, not looking at people to see that they may be (if they are not in your alliance, which is harder to see, but the ring thing is still a thing) in return.

Which is also part... of you know, social activities? Respecting each other by giving at least a smidgen as much as you're asking of them? Others shouldnt give more than you're willing to give back in return.

edit: just to make clear, i'm extremely selfish actually. So much so that i flatout dont play if i dont feel like it because if i'm in a bad mood, i can't pretend to be in a good mood... Even if i usually play with friends, i wouldn't want randoms to deal with my bad mood self even if i wouldnt write or wouldnt do anything different, other than being miserable.
