BA elitist groups monopolising primal

[AnnaMolly]

Exaggerations and overreactions like this thread are why people think devs don't listen to NA players. Japanese players aren't obsessed with butt sliders and complaining about non-issues or content that isn't out or even officially announced yet.

If you want to go into BA and make it to some extent in an organized manner, join the Discord, agree to the etiquette and not to screw over your fellow raid mates (that's the "agree to their ToS" thing) and jump into a group when someone is doing a learning party.

The discord is how NA/EU is dealing with the way devs designed BA, the discord isn't the cause and they don't "claim" instances or portals, when someone approaches your portal that isn't in the discord, you are encouraged to politely tell them you're in an organized group and offer an invite to the discord, if someone is in the discord, and jumps in your portal, they're being rude and disregarding the etiquette, so they are either reminded or booted depending on how many times they've done this. It isn't as bad as some are making it out to be.

EDIT: I should also point out, since some have apparently thought it would be some sort of justice to snipe portals and leave these "monopolizing elitists" down a party member, that's griefing and it's against ToS. If you're going to snipe, which I sincerely discourage you from doing, you should probably try your best to contribute. You can't really be carried through BA.
