Do the Legacy Servers Have an Elitism Problem?

[Pinkie_Pie]

This is exactly how it should be.

Random ninja: WTF WHY YOU KICK ME
Group lead: Cause dem boots don't match noob

Random ninja: WTF i'm 20 item levels higher then you and i'm top dps, I"M REPORTING YOU FOR ABUSIVE KICK
Group lead: Go right ahead but I feel the GM's will agree with me about dem boots not matching yo, better take your a** to foot locker if you want in my group.

So I was informed by the GM there's such a thing as a counterclaim by the grieving player that the party "forcibly kept the griefing player in the party too long instead of kicking." To me, this is a poor policy and only rewards this kind of ridiculous behavior, and honestly could lead to major embarassment for SE if a known quantity such as a Twitch streamer films this in action. The guy that was eventually kicked tried to hide behind this counterclaim when the party initially refused to kick him and wanted him to take the leave penalty.

"Forcibly kept the griefing player in the party"?

He chould have left at any time he wanted. He chose to stay there instead of taking the penalty, trying to exploit the system.
It is impossible to keep someone in a duty if they choose to leave.



Technically, from one perspective, kicking him after he refused to take the deserter penalty could be viewed as assisting in exploitative behavior...

Not everyone on legacy servers are legacy players.

Not everyone on legacy servers are legacy players.

In fact I'd wager there's less legacy players than non, at this point.
I've never seen elitism over legacy status in any serious capacity at all in my entire time playing.

There was of course some jokes when ARR launched but really that's even died down many years ago.

Yeah that's dumb i cleared A12N with ilvl 230 and even that was easy, Item level doesn't equal skill an "elitist" should know better.
