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?


I think it's you carry them through the majority of the life and they want it to happen again. But you are also a big jerk, so I guess both things are applicable  Tongue

Now the lies/BULL SHIT gets even bigger.

Level 24 to level 28 equals 4.5 million exp.  Distributed claims to earn this in "one day".   This would take playing 24 hours straight earning 187500 exp every hour.  Or if you only played for 6 hours you would need 750000 every hour.

To the OP

I cannot answer the question about you being a jerk, I don't know you.

Are people clingy? Yep, people can be.  It comes down to keeping with a "Good Thing".  When people don't know the best/fastest way to earn XP and they run into someone that doesn't immediately kick them from the group but actually take them through the leveling process.  Some people have a different definition of what a friend is, vs. acquaintance

However, as annoyed as you became with a question you still have better options then your current response.

One: Ignore the tell
Two: Respond - Not sure yet, will put up LFM when I'm ready to group

While it won't stop you from being annoyed it will however make you look less like the cad in the perceived relationship with an acquaintance.

It's still possible, but with a new, even more mind numbing process.


Hmm.  So some quest optional and/or explorer area XP still isn't ransacking, I guess?  I'll take a PM if you feel like it.  If not, fine.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

I guess that irresistibility that you most assuredly possess in real life is flowing over into the video game world.

It's probably both a blessing and a curse to have such a magnetic personality.

This still isn't crucibled so I can't see what all the fuss is about.

Or you are a liar with a HUGE ego.  I call bull shit on your claims of being able to earn "2 million exp or whatever in a few hours". 

You are claiming to run X quests at Y exp per. 

If X is 20 quests then Y must be at least 100,000 exp per quest.

If each quest is averaging, say, 20  minutes, then you are playing 400 minutes (6 hours, 40 min).  Add in time to get to quests, repair, sell, vendor, buff, LFM, etc. 

Total bull shit.


Were you the guy he wouldn't run with?

I've run with players, and forgotten about them, and then get tells from them saying "hey, remember we grouped together - can you send me some plat? I need to buy a new weapon!"

Some people are just socially inept. And they get upset when you point that out to them, using blunt words. It's ok. I think they deserve a little jerk-time.
