What are some of your pwi pet peeves?

Imagine you are in a nation fight while your team is full while fighting against ~12 of the other team. You (me) the barb just grabs the flag and ofc the goal of NW is to bring the flag to a specific point. But nearly anytime in any nation when I grab the flag I need to bring it to the spot myself without any friggin help. No cleric, no archer, not even ppl that would keep the enemys away from me.

So many times nearly the whole enemy squad gathered around me and ofc killed me (if more then 8 full r9r2 ppl that's really no miracle). Then I always think to myself...if all the enemys are attacking me, WHAT ARE MY FRIGGIN NATION MATES ARE DOING MEANWHILE!!!!!!! Remembere 20 against 12..sometimes even less enemys...

Oh, this is so annoying. When I used to run NW I did so on barb, and it was rare that I got help when I had the flag. Often I had no problem but sometimes I'd get 10-15 enemies on me and couldn't make it... really, the other team is smart enough to go after the flag carrier, why aren't they smart enough to follow?? It really aggravated me.

I hate it when people don't listen when they're told to do something or not to do something. Or when they don't know their role. I did an FB29 for a sin using my wizard and cleric. He was told to stay back and let me tank on my wizard. When he didn't listen, I left my wizard behind and he complained that I wasn't attacking. You want me to attack, let me do my job.

Solution: Do what you need to do, don't worry about them. If they die, rez em after you get to the boss. b:pleased

I've also been watching faction as members were doing dungeon runs with randoms and they were complaining about a cleric using wellspring only or DDing. I ended up going along (at a lower level than the cleric they had) and healed. She turned around and left after saying "Looks like I'm not needed here". Of course you're not needed, you don't know how to listen or heal properly! It's sad when a lower level cleric heals better.

I will usually follow up by telling them as much. I'll also typically offer training to help then be a better cleric. They usually don't respond or rage though.

Also, you want to be healed or ressed, make sure you're doing your job. If your job in that particular squad is to be a DD, then DD. If you don't know how to DD properly and you keep stealing and dying, don't blame me. It's also a pain when your tank tells you not to heal then almost gets himself killed and forces you to pretty much res him since he's that low on health.

I just let em die. If it wipes the squad, oh well. I'll come back and rez everyone, and make sure that I tell the tank to pay more attention to his HP so it doesn't happen again. Tank may still sit and range, but usually the squad will get a clue that he's an idiot.

(I also have a bad habit of letting the aggro-***** Sin's and BM's just die and rez them at my convenience when they aren't the designated tank. Not really a bad habit, but they think it is. =P )

Wait, when did Sins bet Bell and Fissure? Oh lawdy.

I may have been a wee bit hung over and half asleep when I wrote that.

Considering that most Aba/SoT BHs WCs I see (that aren't for cleric/barb) are for sin/BM, I don't think you have much of a place to complain that a few squads prefer non-melees to avoid problems if you don't manage to kill the bosses before they buff up (since most sins/BMs seem to forget they have any skills other than triple spark on bosses.)

When a high level rages because you do not want their help in a low level bh, and calls you things like "ridiculous noob," and claim "you don't even make sense," and gets really mad because "DANG IT! I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU!!!!!" instead of saying cool, good luck or maybe even dusting off some forgotten alt in that range and going for the fun of it.

People getting mad annoys you?

That's weird, it should be the opposite. For me at least.

You mean people not getting mad annoys you? You're strange.

The other opposite, people getting annoyed makes me pleased.

my pet peeve is that ****** power lvl bs. it has ruined the whole game. every one and there brother is lvl 100+ now. where's the fun in that? i remember when lvl 80+ was good for everyone and only the people that had been playing sence beta were lvl 90+. its so sad. it was a good game but its gone to **** -.- b:angry

I know I posted last but that was hours ago and I hate editing stuff that long after

When people use "need" to describe anything in game. It's a game. You don't need anything in it. Though some of the people may need to get a life.

My pet peeves? Okay, here come my QQs:

- Horns, especially because they freeze item transfers.
On top of that, 99.99% of the time, it's some terrible one-liner from an unfunny one;

- People that spam the same ad every minute (about selling an item or looking for one);

- Those who put "cheap" on their vendors, while it's stupidly overpriced. Same goes for expressions like "offer" or "I dare you (to buy)";

- Perverted roleplaying (basically in world chat). Go find a 18+ game to express your fantasies, darn it;

-Being lagged/disconnected and logging back as dead... It happens to me every day now. b:angry

- A broken Advanced Grinding Machine (it works for now though).

etc.

not sure if any of these have been listed yet:

- people who don't use the illusion stone teleport and instead fly to every location to save money (and waste everyone else's time)
- people who leave the squad or dungeon to make a trade or help someone else do something -- have some respect and consideration for your squad mates
- people who abbreviate my name as "Vina" instead of Vin. if you're gonna type 4/5 letters, you might as well go all the way and say the full name.
- people who spam world chat with personal conversations that could just as easily be had in squad chat. here's a hint: the rest of us do NOT think you're cute. we also don't care about the 5 friends who think you are, or what any of you have to say to each other.
- people who are greedy about loot. they either drop squad or wait for everyone else to port out so they can pick up all the drops themselves even though someone else paid the wine.
- people who get an attitude for no sufficient reason (omg someone asked if i am the same person as this other guy who has an identical name! how dare they think i am that guy! *rage/quit squad*)
- people who leave squad when things don't go their way (oh the first boss didnt drop what i need, lets reset WS and do the pavilions all over again so i can get what i need. finish the run? no thx. bye.)
- clerics who think they are brought to WS to DD. no. just no. we bring you so you can heal. if we wanted more DD, we would take another sin. idc if you're r999. you were brought along to HEAL.
- "dd" clerics who nag for chi so they can triple spark instead of BB
- sins or BMs who cannot solo earth pav
- anyone who fails earth pav
- anyone who STILL fails earth pav even with the extra person helping them
- r9s who say they need help in their pav right off the bat, meanwhile other ppl have garbage gear and still manage to solo
- people who pick up every mold (not the banker) and say "oops" every time, and the rest of the squad who thinks it's cute or funny rather than kicking the idiot
- people who put you through a long interview process just to join a squad. "sage? sage amp? sage soul degen? sage this? bramble that? wep link? armor? can you solo metal?" -- if i couldnt do WS i wouldnt PM!
- people who are ultra picky about what class and culti they bring to WS and end up forming a squad that cannot pass the pavilions.

OMG, I hateeeee this. One time I even dropped some coin so that they could teleport anyway, since they said they didn't have the money and they responded that they preferred to keep the money and just fly anyway. I was so annoyed, I dropped squad.
