live letter... avoid the forums

[Ri_ri]

People wanting to feel exclusive and special for doing content that's half a year old. I fail to understand them.

[Davionx]

More often than not the angriest people are the ones being carried through content. At least Thats my experience in mmos where everything isn't handed to everyone.

It doesn't matter if they nerf 1-5 or not. The fact remains that even if they don't nerf it, people are just going
to grind out whatever the iLvl is in 2.2 for Tome items (let's say 110 as an example) then run 1-5 in iLvl 110
gear and they are going to demolish it anyway.

I don't understand the big deal.

Nerf + iLvl 110 Tome gear = 1-5 Easy
No nerf + iLvl 110 Tome gear = 1-5 easy.

All not nerfing is going to do is delay it a little longer, nothing more. Nobody is ever going to -truly- know how
hard it was pre-2.2 unless they willingly go in with only iLvl 90 or lower gear. Which... unless you are wanting
a challenge or just bored is not going to happen.

Good idea, OP. Pity I am a bit of a forum-holic. :P

The forum is no where as bad as in game though. The amount of rage and crying you see from players in game is way worst than the forums.

The forums are much, much, much worse. Seriously. lol

You don't df hard content often? Many players on the forum have horror stories of how rude players are in game. It's a regular occurrence while on the forums it's just a difference in opinion most of the time rather than rudeness.

I do, and those people are out there, won't deny that. The forums aren't a good indication of what actually IS though. It's unavoidable to cross paths with these individuals who seem bent on ruining your day, and while it is somewhat common, I wouldn't call it a regular occurrence in my experience.

It's often enough for me to consider it worst than the forums and you see posts on it quite often.

Lemme give you an example of just what happened just a couple hours ago in DF.

Queued up as tank for Garuda and I think OT did something minor wrong (not too sure)

Blm: DERP TANK!
Blm: DERP TANK ALERT!
Blm:I shouda bet on a tank, misread that
Blm: Well whatever, I owe u 100g nao
Blm: Hold on one sec yall
Blm: Setting up my macro
Blm: <se.11>
Blm: Shout: DERP TANK ALERT!
Blm: <se.11>
Blm: Shout: DERP TANK ALERT!
<me> Guy in dl gear, no zenith weapon, talking smack and not doing enough dps (after failing to burn Sup in time)

Bad players that try to talk down to others is extremely common. Just makes the game non casual player friendly and forces players into just doing content in their own groupies. Also the reason why tank population will never increase.

Many of the people complaining about turn 1-5 are probably the same people crying and overreacting about bard adjustment before 2.1.. there was like 3 threads about it. Then the patch hit and Bard damage wasn't destroyed and is still wanted in every fight lol

I'm actually glad with the change. This way my group that's clearing turn 5 regularly can help out the less fortunate/skilled/casual or w/e the "pros" wanna call them, people in my FC , clear coil.

People always cry about anything and everything.
