PWI's pet peeves

Interesting thread

Let's see..

Tanks that are complaining when I give them my SoV buff even if I said that it's sage before buffing.

People asking about my RL gender.

And most of all:
In tw or nw, getting oneshotted by archers (usually) that were, from my point of view, somewhere offscreen. I don't mind losing to a stronger opponent but if I didn't even see them I get frustrated.

Additionally, lots of things that have allready been said.

Crimson

People who don't like you just because you are in "blablabla" faction. I have been guilty of this in the past but have come to realize just how stupid it really is. I constantly have people pming me going "OMG you are in ____ faction? I don't like you anymore" (or something along those lines). It's random pixels above some more random pixels head. It truly does not mean anything else. I hate applying to a faction, can't stand it, won't do it anymore. If ___ faction will take me without an app and is generally active then sure why not.

Which brings me to faction applications. I guess I sort of get it. No faction wants those people that jump in, assume the entire faction is there to give/farm their gear just so they can jump into another "better" faction but still. Talk to the person in game, run an instance with them. I apply to jobs not video game groups.

People that take their in-game relationships so seriously that their whole world revolves around it. There are always exeptions and I know people have found luuuurve in game but everyone has seen them and you know they get on your nerves as much as they get on mine. "So and so cheated on me!!! They got a girlfriend/boyfriend rl and now they won't do marriage quest with me because they say it's against bla bla." It honestly aggrivates me most when they complain to me about it like I'm supposed to be their in game relationship therapist. Dude I am here to play a game, not to listen to you whine about something I don't give a rats *** about.

Other wizards that don't alternate undines when we're in squad together. I undine, then you undine or vice versa. Don't undine right after I do and take the debuffs away. Drives me crazy.

People that go "OMG you're a SAGE WIZ...so fail" Get over it, I went sage, I'm not going to change it. Conversation over.

I am not a huge pker, and really don't pvp very much though I am on a pvp server. I do randomly get a wild hair up my butt and like to give it a go and go to wherever spot people happen to be. Don't pm me when I kill you and say "WHY YOU KEEL ME I'M ONLY LVL 80" I don't check your gear before I kill you. You are out there...you're fresh meat and I wanna kill someone. Don't go to west gate and sit there with your thumb up your butt and not expect someone to get you. I'm not trying to stalk lower lvl people and generally feel bad when I do happen to get them but at the same time don't go to active pvp spots and not expect it.

People that think just because you helped them one time that you are automatically their "helpful" slave. I love to help people, it's fun but I refuse to follow you around all day long to kill every last little mob that you need killed just to be spam pmed the next day to do the exact same thing.

This doesn't apply so very much anymore because very few people quest nowadays but people that constantly ask for help on regular quests. "I have to kill 100 ___ someone help meeeeee." If you can't do it by yourself you either need to gear up or learn your class. Nothing wrong with teaming up with people your level that need the same quest but I'm not going to drop whatever it is I'm doing just to kill 100 mobs for you while you sit there and do nothing. It makes me even more mad when people rage quit a faction just because no one will drop everything their doing to grind those quests. I did them ALL on my own or with others who needed the exact same thing the exact same time I did...if I can do it, you can do it. I'm not talking about special quests...just the regular run of the mill level quests around the map.

I know someone that mentioned this earlier but I disagree and feel the opposite. I hate it when people spam pm me "WHY YOU DELETE ME AS FRIEND" because you friended me, and then never talked to me for months, you havn't signed on in months...some reason or another. If I deleted you, I wanted to. I have had people friend me, not talk to me forever, I delete them, then pm me mad, friend me again and then not talk to me for months all over again. What's the damn point in friending me?

Playing this game for a few years has I guess changed my perspective on things. I used to really care what people thought, wanted everyone to like me, wanted to be well known all kinds of stuff when I first started. Now...to be honest, I just sign on to play a game and get away from my real life for an hour or so. If you don't like what I do, I just really don't care xD.

It could go on, but I'll go ahead and end the rant now xD

PWI pet peeve.


People who do nothing but whine about their pet peeves..




b:laughb:laugh


Nubs...

My biggest pet peeve is when my Bernese mountain dog steals my mouse while I'm doing a dungeon and makes me die because I either ask and chase him or I run rapidly across the screen and get killed by a mob.

Also when some lowbie doesn't stop asking for help just because you helped em before and you tell them your busy at the moment but don't seem to understand you can't do anything right now.

Not being able to mention other games when they themselves advertise Neverwinter and Elemental Kingdoms (just see above banners). b:surrender

I think its not allowed because we might all migrate elsewhere if we heard of such other games should they exist and simply give a damn about their game's integrity and their player base.

Just to blow of steam here, some more of my personal pet peeves:

- People who play the game, then shouted BORED in wc/gc then started to make drama. If you bored in this game, log off, then do something else that interest you, if you still bored, may God have mercy on your soul.

- Meridian thingy, my luck is soo bad that I got stuck in Dark gate for nearly three months b:cry.

- People who doesn't listen to instructions, especially in the new Hidden Dragon Den which causing multiple squad wiped since Boss went frenzy.

- Joins a random wc squad, then the first instruction from the leader is "Go Skype/Vent", well sorry, I dislike using them, and if you're going to make a a voice-chat exclusive squad, make sure you inform that during wc. b:angry

- Person who think he/she is elite, blame the squad for being fail after got multiple squad wiped. Said person rage quit, then the next attempt went smoother with no one in squad dying.b:laugh I guess we now know who is the fail one b:bye.

My biggest peeve is how some act as if the sun sets and the moon rises just for them.

Those debuffs that stay like forever on your toon >.<

When I put some hypers into my hyper count down and it pops up while i'm playing or every time I login for at least the next few days. b:shutupb:beatup

The water glitch

When people say "no reply=no thx" as if saying No thanks to like maybe 2 pms is that hard, or a simple WC "full/sold all ty" afterwards in wc is so hard. >> The people who do this usually dont' even have anything good.

Obvious fake auctions in WC

Having too many JJ orders because of my own laziness. I realize it's my fault but when I get a stack of them it's annoying to go through them all. b:chuckle

You blotted out your hotbar? b:laugh

The waterfall glitch? Baby you just jelly my milkshake is better

Funny enough Trolling Tide server doesn't seem to get too many fake bids.

Lol I got sick of JoJ after 2 days. Then after a week I stopped logging my cleric for it entirely. b:laugh

People whining if I want to do 2-3 groups in BH Snake and not lure the runners because that is slow and unnecessary.

My miraculous luck in the Cube of Fate... I never, ever got an Ecstasy card there. Maybe I wasn't doing it too much (still lvl 92), but my generous stack of sadness cards makes me believe, that Ecstasy cards are a hoax and don't really exist. The other day I got into the Very Bored room 5 (five!) times b:beatup, because I kept getting tags for 3 rooms back. So, considering 5 sadness cards I got in that run, I decided that my stubborn strive to complete the Cube that day has carried me too far, and then, after getting 1-shotted by a mob in the second exploding hands room, I left the Cube with a feeling of great relief... b:tired

But at least I got a +10% exp bonus from World quest that day. And dyed my Mandarin Silk gown with random dyes out of boredom and accidentally got pure black (which I didn't even want in the first place, but since black dyes cost a crapload, I guess this should be considered great luck). Thus, if your luck sucks so bad in Cube, it must be concentrated somewhere else, lol.

- People who asked my lvl 94 cleric to clear FF/FCC for them after I help them lowbie quest/bosses b:tired

- When helping lowbie doing their bh/tt gear farm, I often tell them to join attacking after I hold agro on mobs/boss, and most of the time they just stand there like an idiot. b:angry. I tried to teach them politely how to use their class (BM on HF timing, seeker with debuff, sin with ribstrike etc), and yet they still stood there like an idiot. b:angry

- Multiple lunar bh in one week b:cry I like doing lunar, but doing it after 2x event is kinda worthless

- sin with G16/R9S3+12 dagger and aps gear blaming it on other people (tank/cleric, etc) when he got 1-shotted by boss b:surrender. As we told him to use CoD and keep his agro, he instead told tank and cleric to get better ref on their weapon.
