"Everyone's so open and friendly" is a lie

We can't say GCBTW anymore now it's BCBTW

Look, there is what the marketing team presents and there is reality.

When you're in the game, you can see how unpleasant people are when something goes wrong and several minutes before, nobody talks about raid alliances and others.

Seeing as your previous post highlighted the complaint that you could 'no longer' call someone incompetent I'm not even sure what to take of that.. Calling someone incompetent is rude and it is largely counterproductive to do so if you aren't offering advice. If you have the gall to do that then have the common courtesy of telling people what they're doing wrong.

Besides, you have never really been able to do it. You'd know that if you checked the old terms of service. The rules were largely unchanged with the main additions simply being examples. Because apparently it was difficult to know what constituted as harassment, being rude, undermining, or instigating. Etc.

Well listen, we have to express our frustrations rather than play the sheep, unless we risk a ban.

People are mostly incompetent, that's a fact.

I probably shocked your sensibility without meaning to, what do you want?

And, I have never been banned for telling a person that they should learn to play.

have some raids been groaners? sure can. never had anything run out to an hour though.

but then, apparently we are all carebears on Crystal, guess we still get the job done though ^^

I am so happy I am not on a "leet" server group, things seem to take a lot longer

Maybe that is because, ironically, everyone with your attitude decided to pile into one data center. You get into a "raid sever" but you apparently can't complete a raid because you all cancel each other out after one mistake.

Sure we can, cause this doesn't change there is still some less pleasant people inside of the community.

Oh wow! This thread is STILL ongoing!

People got nothing better to do until thursday.

the funny thing is, if you see what the jury % vs the normal votes. not surprising

It sucks since we can't tell people they are incompetent anymore, alliance raids take 1 hour to finish (without wype), what a hell.

Paradigm Tower in that amount of time what a pleasure...

I guess all the skilled players are on break.

The population of the game has expanded. You will find new players in every second game. It is pretty normal that they do not know all the mechanics for the first time. Nobody can know something that they never known before.

I did 3 ShB and 3 HW relic weapons in the last 2 weeks and ran CT raids probably 70+ times during this time. I have seen different teams and compositions during this period. There is no need to generalize. Sometimes you get lucky sometimes you do not. If someone wants pro players I highly suggest to ask around their own FC to run dailies with, or join a "pro" linkshell. I am in a linkshell that runs Minimum item level oldschool content and sometimes spend 5 hours learning a content that everyone else does in 5-10 minutes because they go unsynced.

I understand that people can be snowflakes sometimes and get frustrated if you point out their mistake. But a very easy way to remedy is that you tell them how to do better instead of telling them, "oh you f*cked up" or "oh you are incompetent..." - these will not help the raid to go faster. Nothing wrong with being pissed at people for not learning from mistakes. But on the other hand, it is hard to learn when you dont know what you did wrong or how to do things better... I have sen many people leaving raids cause of sprout's slow learning, but they never even tried to help the sprouts to learn. To be honest, I feel like its best for everyone if they leave and we get another person to fill.

Alternative theory: there's one consistent in your experiences and it probably isn't that every time you do a raid you suddenly find yourself in a parallel dimension where everyone but you is magically bad at the game.
