Things to think about before you call someone "Bad"

[Vahlnir]

Honestly not trying to be hypocritical, but try to understand the frustration when a current player builds up a game to have the exact opposite type of community as your average Raid or die MMO to a new player, then before the new person even hits 35, they get slammed and vote kicked multiple times (which unless someone is afk or being harassing is against the rules) for not knowing every single aspect of a fight and even told the group they are new.

A person who could have ended up being a decent player logs out and logs back into the other MMO she was playing because the devil you know is sometimes better than the devil you don't.

But before they leave they point out the 1700 post thread on this forum where the vets are literally slamming all the "bads" they have to endure.

And no it wasn't really like that a couple years back. I'm not saying that anyone on this thread is guilty of that, but it is happening and in every MMo I have played that adopts this attitude, a reduced player base isn't far behind.

That's my two cents on it.

I respect your opinion, but a "toxic" atmosphere isn't typically responsible for a game's decline. I still don't believe this game is there yet. What's usually responsible is a rift that grows between the players, the devs and the company in charge of a game as the quality and quantity begin to...degrade. This has been very much the case with WoW as a more recent example.
