i’m not sure where to put this but i wanted to try out unholy dk, i’ve been told learning your rotation in questing if you want to do endgame content isn’t an optimal way to do it?
i was constantly being harrassed and accused of being a bot in a dungeon i wasn’t familiar with and it’s thrown me off wanting to do anymore, i wasn’t aware it was even possible to bring bots in dungeons
no matter how many times i replied to them they would say things like “only a bot would say that” and wouldn’t stop harrassing me, has anyone else had any experiences like this? this is really the first time i’ve participated in group content with random people and i’m nervous to go back into it, i feel like this is just reinforcing me to keep being a hermit and only do solo content
I’ve seen a lot of idiots insulting people or me, for various reasons and generally nothing really serious. If you are hurt easily, then you’ll have a hard time in wow.
I speak with experience, i’ve had bad moment in my life, depressione etc where I couldn’t bear people’s toxicity or insults, now it’s better, I can irgore them.
You will meet idiots no matter how you play, in m+, in PvP, in +18 keys, best it to work on your patience and stay positive: ignore toxicity and be nice with the few nice people that still play the game.
Some people have no tolerance for new players, it wasn’t a lot different when I started back in TBC. I was accused of buying my account on eBay because it was my first character and was on a learning curve.
If people are being rude just put them on ignore. Some probably just think they are being funny.
Don’t take it to heart. Try to read up a little about your class and what you are supposed to be doing. There are various guides available on sites and discords for your class. At max level you can always spend a bit of time on a training dummy getting to grips with your rotation if it’s new and not familiar.
just people trolling you having a bit of fun… kinda sounds like you get ya feelings hurt easily. you might have a tough time in online gaming if thats the case because there certainly not always “friendly” a thick skin is probably going to be required honestly.
Yeah just more players acting like jerks and trying to get under your skin. ^
I have had an experience like this, in my case they got verbally offensive to try hit a nerve before kicking me from the group.
I reported and got in a ticket with blizz, they said they would take action against that behaviour.
To be honest, It’s really a rare thing to find a nice chill group even in the easy content. You have to deal with a lot of bad attitudes, plenty of noobs.
I had a nice group a couple days ago, at the end we all stopped and talked and was in awe at how we actually got a nice group of players and started to share some horror storys.
Sad times. What a world we live in huh.
Reach out to the nicer players, guilds, communities and try phase out those groups when you can.
Fight against this behaviour by refusing to give them your time and attention and be more outgoing when you meet nice players, hopefully that help find some cool folks.
Did they happen to be from the same guild or server?
Seems like they were a bunch of like-minded idiots. Some people find those actions funny… but I guess they have a different kind of humour than me.
Best is to just ignore and report, nothing to do with having a thick skin or lacking it. You can act with people you know like that… with a stranger its just being obnoxious and that has no place in the game.
To be honest, deal with it. Grow thicker skin or buy on ah. You will meet many different People in every aspect of life. Here you can choose. Choose to find a new group maybe next group write smileys? Go on in your life like everybody else, no need to stop just because you meet 1 or 2 person who says they dont like you and generalize upon that after that episode.
this is sad let me give you a PvP example of such jerks
loss happens in a epic bg due to bots and they whisper you with abusive language
like this shaman called me"insane" for pointing exactly WHY horde lost
why bring your rating insults against a epic bg player?
wont feed his ego by acting better than the rest of us
In theory. Discourse has a way of getting emotional rather quickly when not done face to face. Dunno if the lockdowns of 2020-21 have made people even more emotionally nude online or not.
I mean this guy gets it completely. You decide to pug, you know what you sign up for. You CANNOT avoid the bad apples in that aspect of the game. THEY WILL BE THERE. Just move on and pretend you never let anything they ever say to you. Get to you. Persistence when you face negativity. Is how you over time will get better experiences in the pug life, than worse.
Seroius, the world would be perfect if we all clap hands, but different People, different needs, People who express them self interpret and understand things different. Noone said that you should accept being called a jerk, but every scenario has 2 sides . Some People post and generalise 1 bad episode and says it is a common and general problem, its personal how they define it but now i have played for many years now and I really rare meet toxic People and If I do I have choices. Either leave, report and then go on. Dont make this a big Thing.
Look at forum rules, do you think they are precise? There is a lot of interpretation to make into these. If I said to a player in a dgs. That he need to improve if he want to be good and I get no reply and then Kindly whisper hey are u there , and next hey did u see and he report me for spamming. . What then? Did I do something wrong just try to help him? If you look into the tos i could have Breaking the rules just because I was eager to actual help him/her
