Hunter even put in a Nexus instance that you can go into to reduce the chance of this happening.

         /wave at revloc06. O yes the high and mighty cause thats how people see themselves when they put all that time in to get what everyone else got before them. LoL I don't know where your getting off saying that but i for one don't put myself in a position that i would think myself better then other players. A newbie is a newbie period. The forums are here for us to rant and rave yes but if you would take 15 mins out of your damn day to see that these things have already been posted by other newbies that came way before this new wave that is starting to flood in you'd see that your rants have already been discussed by others that were in the same position as you but did less bitching and crying about it.

          All these new QQ post about things that need to be fixed aka are wrong have long been in the game and we all have learned to work around it and struggle through to get to the goals we set for ourselves in this game. Thats why when we see newbies asking the same thing over and over again we say go read the forums. Not make a new post about your rant so your question or problems can just have a quick and easy solution. No. But so you can look back at what others have spent their free time understanding and trying to fix for others so these headaches wouldn't happen. These rants/QQ's are laziness in not reading rules, not taking time to go back and do a little server research, and overall plain lack of common sense.

           I for one have gave up alot of my time to help others that have needed/wanted to get things done. Never have i ever took a single plat from them or ask for anything in return. Some have stayed friends others have quit or just went on their newbish ways. I can tell you this from all my time helping others i have found that there are people that really want the help and others that just want to sit back like their watching a movie or something. Its a sad part of life but even after getting a head start in life or in this game people will just throw it away over nothing just cause they think they should be given more.

What is the problem with politely saying..."sorry man, I feel your pain, but the rules say, yada yada, if you need help message me in game" and leave it at that instead of flamin the dude?

Or, do like I do...

don't help anymore. I used to help out, but then it got to the point where it was expected, even though I was busy doing my own thing. So, I stopped unless I knew the person in RL.

There's a difference asking for help with something and asking for someone to come kill everything for you.

Cracken offered help to me, which I accepted.  I didn't take it for grantit, and thanked him probably every 30 minutes.  That probably got annoying but I made sure thank him after each thing he helped me with.  This all started because I lost my epic 3.0 weapon to the bird fountain, from crashing.  If you read my above post I was very grateful for him helping me. 

I shouldn't be condemned for mistakes.  Or embarrassed on the forums from his post. 

I should say, I shouldn't have to feel like shit because I made a mistake.  I make mistakes, I am still learning.  Not everyone has an adaptive personality to learn things instantaneously, it takes me awhile, several attempts to learn things correctly. 

But I digress.

I have seen people lose stuff in the bird bath only to be offered a complete run through to get their epic back. Not only that but they were offered condolences and helpful advice. Even more, people related their own stories to kinda let them know they "feel their pain". Difference between those posts and this one? This post was about bitching and moaning and bs this and bs that and how nothing is my fault. The majority of people you have encountered don't like you because of your attitude, not because your a noob. Remember, Cracken helped you when you were nothing but a noob to him, it was when your attitude became annoying that you became a nuisance. The being removed from your guild was likely because of the same thing, yet, you blame that on the server too.

The elitist bs accusations has been thrown around here and there at different times. It is usually (though not always) a sign of not having a proper argument/point. Just because you find an accusation to throw at people that makes people want to tell you to stfu doesn't make your point any more valid.

There's a lot to be learned in this thread.  I hope people take the time to read it completely and understand what is being said by both the OP and the people responding.  Leave your emotions at the door and just read.   Cool

We point the newbs to the forums TO READ THEM AND LEARN, not just to take their OOC questions and post them on the boards without reading anything.  There is a difference.

Just a update, he now has his 3.0 back.  I spent a hour or so yesterday running him.

I've been watching this thread from a distance, for good reason. It's like a hornets nest full of chainsaws and salty baby tears.

         Indeed he is the "shiznit" as you say. I still find it funny that with all the gear i got this newbie he wasn't able to act on his own but go back crawling to someone else. Just shows what type of person he is. Tho as a people i find that most are willing to pop a tv dinner in to the microwave instead of taking the time to cook a full dinner. My point laziness is not a substitute for noobness. Guy just wanted everything handed to him like it was suppose to happen. Guess he got his wish. Good job.  Wink

Eh let people play how they want to play. Frankly I was the same. After I was shown how easy it is to run up the progression ladder with help, I asked for it. However I got minimal to no help until 3.0.

Anyway, its not really anyones loss but his own he just got to experience less content. Its like the guy who plays the new video game vs the guy who goes out and buys the strategy guide for it before even booting it up and trying it.

All depends on play style. However, I don't agree with the whining. /punt
