Common Courtesy in SoD?

This happened to a group I was in....

My group was clearing our way down to a known named spawn point. When we started, we were the only ones in the zone. Right before we get to the room were the named spawns, 4 lvl 63-65's show up, and clear the spawn. No named was up, so thats not the big deal. Its the fact that we were there to XP, and possible get loot, and do somthing challenging for our group. Then 4 assholes run by us while we are clearing the last of the roamers, and just take the camp. Seems common courtesy is crap in SoD along with the Aeternus guild members that pulled this stunt. Thanks
 
Yeah...I've seen that stuff happen way too often.

On the flip side though, it annoys me watching a group that is too low to take a mob try it over and over and over when I'm waiting to kill the thing...and then if they wipe they get mad if you kill it while they're regrouping.

It goes both ways.

But yeah, running past people who are exping just to get to where they're heading and then killing things they want to exp on...that's pretty dickish.
 
Yeah, it's a hard matter. I always ask and, if they're fighting their way to what I want to kill, I just leave the zone. Otherwise I would be tempted to kill it should they wipe.

I was once hunting with an alt in Blackburrow. I told my group to go kill the high warden, since he drops a nice bag. While we were hunting our way there, a monk ran past us, and I sent him a tell. He told me he was also going for the high warden, so I asked him if he could give us one attempt at least (since we were first, but not high enough to bypass content). He not only agreed to let us have an attempt, he told us to he would leave. Nice guy :).

This kind of thing doesn't happen all the time, and you shouldn't judge the whole population because of one mishap. SoD has a pretty nice community. But in every community you find a few odd ones to spoil it. Fact of life.
 
Although it is indeed a bit jerkish and rude to do, there aint really much you can do about. Camps are not recognised in SoD after all! The best you can do is what Grommok did with his alt!
 
The thing is we had the force to do the camp easily...we hada full group and had no mishaps getting to the area and pulling it. Just because there aren't camps doesn't mean you shouldn't excercise common courtesy to the people who were there first. Definately put a tarnish on Aeternus reputation in my eyes.
 
well, you see there was no time to ask them to stop, like I said we were killing the last roamers, when we saw them run by. After the just took what they wanted and basically said screw you we started talking with them. We got replies like well I didnt think you guys could take those mobs, or why dont you guys go kill other camps, my favorite one was we just thought you were Xping on regular mobs. Basically, everything we said, they were jerks back to us, and this wasnt just regualr guild members, this was the GUILD LEADER, and OFFICER. There was no reasoning with them, but this mishap basically destroyed our group, everyone was so furious we split and logged for the night. Still, I can see, if they let us TRY to clear the camp, space out the spawn, and we wiped, hey thier camp, have fun guys we going somwhere else. Honestly, if there was a named up, i would have casted every spell in my book to try to get the kill, cause what they did was wrong, and this is to those guys From Aeternus Guild, Thanks, one day you will get yours untill then.... :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger: :finger:

As I can't comment on this particular instance, I ask that you do not judge the guild as a whole based on that experience. I know the GL pretty well and I seriously doubt he would have jumped passed you knowing that guys were indeed clearing up to the spawn point.

I maybe wrong, people are in many situations. But there are alot of good people in Aeternus I group with many of them daily, so I ask do not judge the entire guild on this one situation. I hate to see this type of thing especially when, from my experience they've done alot to go out and help other people on many occasions not just the guild.

In any event, no this isn't the norm here on SoD. The community here is above by leeps and bounds what I've come to expect on live servers. This is a great server and I do enjoy my time here.

See ya around,

I totally agree with you Yami, I dont hate the entire guild, just the 4 assholes that jumped passed us, which happened to be the guild leader and an officer. So far my exsperiance on SoD has been great, people are really nice, the high lvls have helped me out with knowledge and groups etc. This has happened before, even at the same spawn location, and it was a legends guild member. I talked to that guy, and he said, " oh sorry man, I didnt see you guys <there are 2 ways to the spawn>. He said the PH was cleared, and he would help us clear the other two, for him being a jackass and not asking. A couple of days later I was even grouped with his alt, and his lvl 65 was hanging around incase we got in trouble.

I dont judge the guild on this action, but its a pretty good indication if the leadership is like this.....lead by example, at least I hope thats not how their guild works.
 
This is turning into a nice drama thread. So it's getting locked. If you have any further problems or wish to make a comment you can PM me on the forums, or speak to a GM.
 
Before you post next time, perhaps you ought to consider a less inflammatory way of going about it? Or as Raherin said, consider what channels are available to you to actually effect change rather then coming to the forums and whining about it.
