	What did you think of the buddy system weekend?

	If you can roll it you can smoke it.� If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

	I drank a pot, run the xp train twice on epic hard and went from 24 to 26 9/10ths. Thumbs up for sure. I didn't even run crucible to prove a point

	It was great. Note, there was no need for anyone to die or be backpacked to the end. I saw a lot of "pikers welcome" LFM's. Just step in and afk. Unless you want to loot the end chest. But who needs more vendor trash?

	Why bother Retarded Streak is still retarded, with bonus or not... So Not enough Donuts... I was On Call, so the only thing I did was Saturday night raidathon... and Waterworks in a solo party ( me an' my socks ). We told them the idea was stupid... As usual The Producer steamroll his idea, because he didn't get a clear : Hell No message.

	It's like they're trying to make this a social game. Shocking. Would be nice to have this system implemented permanently but at lower values. Like, keeping it at 10% each for events once in a while, lower to 5% each standard outside of those.

	Orien hadn't seen that many lfm's going on in years, think the event was a worthwhile one for sure. Fast leveling and plenty of groups to choose from.

	I noticed very few raiding LFMs up on Khyber. I was disappoint.

But several guildies didn't want to miss out on the XP bonus so they ran 6 man stuff, especially the longer stuff that yields solid XP, like HH and TOEE.

We finish maze when he types "Crucible?" in chat, then about 5 minutes later he pops in. Doesn't move once. Other guys in group were complaining a little until I pointed out that he was adding 10% XP just by standing there, and it wasn't like we actually NEEDED him to do anything. It was glorious, and I hope they make it permanent, soon. Even if they drop it to 5%/player or something.

	IMO, a long-term 1% bonus per groupie would be welcome. Like having your vom on or not. At least that would help compensate for some of the scaling.

	If you can roll it you can smoke it.� If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

	Personally I think if it was 2% per extra that would be better and probably account for the scaling more accurately. You add the bonus and having death only effecting the guy who died and it was a win-win situation all the way around.

	where's the cheese dip?
