There is a fair amount of truth to this, and there seems to be a new, decent-sized wave of new players otw up to 50 recently. The main problem in my opinion is, they don't seem to know what an "MMO" stands for. They get to do things on their own and assume it's a single player game and then proceed to ignore party chat. Others are more like some of the crowd already at 50 doing endgame with their poor attitudes saying "Screw everyone else! I want my loot. Don't tell me how to play!"...which more often than not results in no one getting loot at all. There have been a few exceptions, and even some that remain silent the whole run seem to pay a little bit of attention to what is said in party chat, cause they actually seem to learn what needs done, and this makes me happy to see.
