Am I a jerk? Or are people just fucking clingy?

This, situation, happens at least once a week for me.

Put up LFM, people join, zerg through 2mil exp or whatever in a few hours. Done, log off, log on next day.

Random person you did not even know before that joined said group: "Hey are you running anything?", every day after that group.

So as always, I reply the usual after I get annoyed: "If I'm running anything, I will have a group up, if I don't, I'm soloing. Stop sending me random tells asking for that, I don't even know you".

And then the usual reaction is along the lines of "wow wtf, don't worry I won't ask again, jerk".

Do people somehow think you magically become their friends because you grouped with them once, when all they ever said in group was "what's next"? Or do they think I'm some kind of whore they can just call to get free and fast exp? Or are they just clingy fucks that get offended when I tell them they're annoying?

Or am I really a jerk?

Why is that an "or" question?

This is related to how good (not solo but with a group) you are. People just want to run with good players.

I had a guildie that was sending me party invites within a minute after I login. Tbh she was a good player, she just wanted to be sure to have 1-2 good players running with her.

Normally such a thing requires a prerequisite of being friends.
In these modern times, people just ignore such cordial manners.

Or on the other hand, maybe they just fall in love with your personality?  Smiley

I can see how this must tie your thong in a knot up your gaping puss.  I have the same problem

The thong up my cavernous hole, and not the random tells.

Glad we could help one another here.

That's what really bothers me. They're just strangers to me...yet they act like friends. It's kinda creepy sometimes.

And no. No one would ever fall in love with my personality.

That would make sense. Was confused on how we both have had the same symptoms.

You know those NPCs in the marketplace? The ones that just sit there, day in, day out, wiping their ass, jerking off, asking each other how the sausage was? The ones that have no life, no meaning, no higher purpose? The ones that say nothing, go nowhere, and do nothing but perform the same tasks over and over again? The ones that can do a million different wonderful things, but always end up spitting out, "the red one", because that's what the fat leotard-wearing dead-end in front of him wants? The ones whose sole reason to be is to supply that fanny-pack wearing intellectual dead-end with "the red ones" all day, all night, today, tomorrow, and ever on?

And lardo come waltzing up with great big sack and a hundred time of saying, "the red one".

Say hello, Mr. Goldscuttle!

OMG! The same happened to me last time! Wanna become friends with me on Facebook? Cheesy

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

And someone in another thread called ME delusional recently!

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

If you are even remotely competent or nice you get the "I'll ADD you!" comment as the noob leaves.  Said noob will then send you random tells until one of you dies.  This is the way the world works.
