Why is game entitlement a thing and people think they deserve every item in the game?

So basically nothing is earned in this game juding by everyone's response I always thought effort mattered. I'm sure glad life doesn't work like this and those who work actually get rewarded for their efforts

Acknowledgment is the first step. You're on your way to Tolerance, as well as Acceptance.

Then maybe one day you'd wake up and find out you don't even care anymore. That will be a great day.

And if you really think that's how real life work, and people don't find the easy way out of everything (I'm talking about that hard, green cash), then you have a lot to learn lol.

Technically, connections tend to go further in RL than effort. Kind of like being connected to players that are willing to carry you through content - paid, unsync or otherwise.

You have a very naive understanding of life. Rewards, alas, are not usually directly proportional to efforts. Many of the least-compensated people in the world are some of the hardest working.

Given the tone in a lot of your posts, maybe you should consider stepping back from the forums and just having fun in the game without focusing so much about what you think of the state of the game or the people that play it, if for no other reason than your own sanity.

Sorry but the world is heading in that direction also.

Life doesn't always work that way unfortunately.

One of the first lessons I got as a kid was "life isn't always fair" so if you are missing this life lesson then you might want to study up on the background of this well known saying.

The kid next door has a brand new video game console even though he bullies you and is an ill mannered brat, but your parents can't afford one even though you are a good and well mannered kid...life is not fair. Someone got the job you wanted and they are totally unqualified for it, but they got the job because they are friends with the business owner...life is not fair.

I could go on with examples, but yeah your view on life is only through rose coloured glasses. You aren't seeing what life is really like sometimes.

I just don't get your issue at all. Like for example if someone rides pass you on a rare mount, or with certain gear pieces, or with certain titles. Do you analyze them thoroughly to try to find out if they got it from skill or bought it? If you do this....why do you do this? Do you feel jealousy or some other emotion that possibly fuels your need to know and or care about how that person obtained the things they have even though they are a total stranger?

I personally would never buy a clear for something, but I don't really care if others do because I don't see the point in sticking my nose into what random strangers are doing nor do I feel like I need to know. I see other players all around when I am online and thoughts wondering about the method in which they obtained the things they have never occur to me. I just go about my own business and play and have fun in my own ways.

When I see primal birds this is all that is going through my head anyway....lol



In general comparing your efforts and subsequent rewards to another person is bad and will only make you depressed. Some people in life get things easier than you and sometimes you get things easier than others it is just how the world works (MMO environments are even worse in this respect because RNG is so prevalent). Kind of like that one kid we've all had in our school classes who never seems to need any help and sleeps through class and still gets As, while some of us study our butts off and pay attention in every class and barely make those As.
