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?


No, you are not a jerk.  Yes, this happens all of the time to me when I run with others or give away junk.

I get a bunch of tells for about seven days from players that want the real easy button given to them.  I put in the time to be able to play the way I play.  They can too.

This is what I have found to be successful.  I reply with this,
"I won't mind you adding me to your ignore list.  Have a great day."

It is not overtly offensive.  You are asking them to put YOU on their IGNORE list giving them the psychological feeling of being in power.  Then you are telling them to have a great day because you are just that kind of guy.

Usually, they understand that they have been squelched.

You are not a jerk...but looking at it from their direction.  THey enjoyed running with you and perhaps they wanted to run with you more, eventually and slowly gaining a measure of friendship.

Or they just wanted to pike the xp.  *shrug*

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.

of course not, that is the whole premise of attention seeking emo kids.

you can tell them how to resolve a situation and the causes of it, but all that concerns them is that it occurs and it must be publicly discussed expressed

FEEL EMOTIONS AT THEM

FEEEEEEEEEL

As if I actually calculated the fucking thing accurately so I could post it. But hey if you want to do math, my last life was 15-20 day 1, 20-24 day 2, 24-28 day 3. 50%+5%+5%. Have fun. If they stick around long enough one day they get a shit ton of exp.

A day has 24 hours in it. You might want to be more speciific with your time spent playing quests. It takes me 12 hours of 50% pot timers to go from 20-28 on EN mostly. If I'm not going to complete the quest, then I can do a life from 1-20 in a day. In a day being as vague and obscure as i can, because measures of hours are too minute for me to recall when changing my tampon.

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.

You are a liar.

You are a liar. 


A sustained 750,000 XP per hour used to be possible (in either House of Death Undone or Impossible Demands).  I don't think it's possible any more with the new XP ransack mechanics.

Or you just suck at leveling?

Seriously, can you not get at least 400k or more every hour out of epic quests? Most of them never give less than 50k each, and usually WAY more. Most take 10min or less. Fuck, just spies is like 150k in 10min and WGU was 260k in 30min, could have been 20min just running invis.

As I already mentionned, sure, probably not "a few hours". But if you think it's impossible you're serioubly bad at leveling. Sorry I put so much sand inside your vagina.

I don't think your lying I got from 24 and im 50k shy of 28 in just 3 days of relative relaxed playing. If someone went for broke I could see them getting that in a day but ifs not how I would want to play. All I had was a hard streak if that for most of it, as I had given up my elite streak at level 25. Also having an xp pot going, is big especially when I did do some of the more xp laden quests the first time on EE.

So ... THF Barbarian wielding? Hm. It just seems you could get more blood soaking from dual barbs. Unless there's something I'm missing, I think I'll just stick with my current build.

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