Well, where to start? Earlier today I posted what seemed to me an innocent query looking for some players or a guild that I can join with as I level my new character on Argent Dawn, and unleashed a veritable torrent of extremely heated opinions on the subject of the PCU.
Now, having just returned to WoW after a long time away this means nothing to me, and meaning no offense to anyone on either side of the debate it is impossible for me to form a balanced judgement cos I all I have to go on is the word of one group of strangers vs the word of another group.
So all I will say here is thanks very much to the people who took the time to respond, there was some helpful stuff in there, and Iâll be following up some leads in game.
Gotcha. Well I got a few good recommends out of that last post, hopefully thatâs enough to find some good people in game. The acid test is can you run a whole dungeon with someone without wanting to metaphorically punch them right in the internet?
Yeah, itâs just a large community of guilds. They keep their seperate guild identities and themes, while RPing cross-guild events or stories together, sometimes have large multi-guild attendance campaigns, attend and back up each otherâs events. Itâs intimidating at first, but itâs honestly a really pleasant and fulfilling community to be in.
The controversy, honestly, is that any kind of large group or âbig nameâ tends to also inspire rumour and behind-back talking. I say this not as a shill, but because I saw this exact thing happen on the Shaâtar when I was there too. Someone who made lots of large events was accused of trying to monopolise and take over⊠itâs happening here all over again, is all.
RPers are a funny bunch. They want the content made and delivered, but some resent the ones that do it. Anyway, thereâs honestly no monopoly that Iâm aware of. Everyone just wants to RP and wants to create and take part in it. Theyâre just really eager about roleplay in World of Warcraft! Well, unless thereâs a second officer chat Iâm not actually aware of where they discuss these dastardly ideasâŠ
Could always use party sync to others that are lvling even if they are much higher lvl than you and do those dungs, finding a group that way should be easy.
Sorry that your previous thread got derailed and closed. While I canât help you out, being a Hordie and everything, there will be Alliance guilds rolling in to throw you a bone in your search.
Donât pay any attention to the âantipcuâ dude. I think the fact he named himself something that petty just to attack us says enough about the sort of person that kicks up a fuss. Anyhow in regards to what the PCU is, here is a helpful thread for you to find out more:
