Random Party Invites?

[lineandcolor]

You just seem like your angry that people want to group with you to play... I just have not seen anyone attempt to troll by sending out blind invites, assuming these people are just trying to get help.

No, just annoyed. If they want to group with me, they need to tell me why. I'm a complete stranger doing my own thing, if I don't know what the invite is for, I am going to move on. Why is that so strange or "mean"?

I don't mind playing with people, and I've gone through dungeons without needing to communicate all that much. But even so, if I could get a simple, "Hello, I need help with a mob, can you help me?" or something to that effect (a beckoning emote will do as well), I wouldn't mind at all being invited, since, you know, I would actually know what the invite is for. Otherwise, I will decline and move on.

I don't know why you're making it sound like this is the worst thing in the world to do. :/

yeah it's nothing bad at all, you just want to play your game that's all
everyone is free to do anything the way they want to do it, you paid for your account and your subscription by yourself

I agree completely. I call this "Ambush Friend-ing" and don't like it. I will automatically decline an ambush request. If you want my help, ASK for it. I'm a nice guy, and I actually enjoy being helpful, but I want to know WHY I should suddenly interrupt my plans to accommodate a stranger.
