Kicking new players

Community General Discussion
23

I never really see people getting kicked unless they are afk or trolling hard in lfr, and even then not always.

I think the issue mostly is that most people want to rush trough the dungeon as fast as possible to get the reward, and skip stuff when possible. While new players are more likely to explore or sightsee things. I personally don’t have any problem with that, but sometimes its hard to see when its someone that wants to see around the place or if its someone thats just (semi) afk running along to get the rewards. And plenty of people also would kick sightseeing people just because it would cost the run 1 more minute to do, part of the community has become much more toxic than it was before all the sharding/servergroups/lfd/lfr/QoL stuff

They can do that, but frankly i don’t think many people will do that. They just bought the basic game+ subscription maybe the latest expansion as well. Perhaps not always sure if this game is for them. I don’t think many people want to spent 20 euro or even more just to get heirlooms that actually remove the aspect of gearing from lower levels. I can imagine that it would feel for newer players that its paying to remove part of the game

I’ve given guildies/friends gold for heirlooms before. It’s quite rare to see people without them.

People like you are a godsend. So refreshing amongst all the negativity as of late. Thanks for warming this old forsakens’ heart.

There is hope for our community yet.

Yes I know each person can be both horde and alliance . I was asking if a horde can help an alliance , because I am not sure then can be in a same groupe and etc.

sadly there’s not much you can do.

got kicked few weeks ago myself, because some mong pulled extra adds and I didnt tank them :joy:
and since blizzard refuses to fix their kicking system, sadly we’re stuck with unfairness.

Im currently lvling my characters on both factions so if you’re down you can add me and I could help you out learn the game in general. my battle tag is - Bukachu#21354

I waited thirty minutes to do a dungeon tonight … Then when I entered they were not around I made my way to find them but they had taken a short cut and hadn’t cleared any mobs. So I tried and died and then they kicked me and I had to wait another thirty minutes.

I wouldn’t worry. You will get kicked for anything. Just forget it and move on.

What should you do?..aight, I will help you out.

First off, Never be the one stuck holding the bag, in terms of negative energy.

Now, you want to know why they kicked you, that’s irrelevant, all that matters is that it was done and you’re holding the bag right now.

You need to get rid of that bag (negative energy), how?

You need to get some random player kicked to get rid of it.

Now if you can’t stomach doing this, you need to figure out a way to lift as many bags as possible in the future and you’ll be fine :lying_face:

I thought the exact same thing.

The community is unfortunately ever so slightly toxic in random groups, mostly because there are no consequences for their misbehaviour. So general speaking it’s just something you need to learn to shrug off and move on.

There are some good people out there, but they might not be that easy to find these days. Take a chance on a bit of chatter in the general chat in city / zones and see if you can find some nice people. Also the best bet is to find a guild, though guilds for new players can be a bit rough to find, and many in the existing guilds might not be levelling at all, so it’s a bit of a balance act here.

When you’re kicked there’s not much you can do abotu it. You just have to move on. As others suggested you can say at the start that you’re new. Some people can be aholes and just kick others for no reason. Some people kick because you do something wrong.

I think that you should always first tell the person they are doing something wrong and only if they ignore you and keep doing that you should kick them.

Also If you have any questions you could add me Wojtasz#21171. I’m kind of in the process of leveling new characters, recently started Draenei Warrior, he’s lvl 30.

I kept my promiss, he linked up with me, i gave Tamurra gold for heirlooms (on my own server, since that was cheaper, just asked Tamurra to make a toon there, i picked him/her up and told him/her what item to buy and how to send item cross server ^^.

I’m in the process of trying to get gold on sylvanas atm so i can help Tamurra getting the heirloom leg / cloak / head item once the person get the reguired reputation for said item.

Yeah, we might be forsakens, doesnt mean we lost our humanity :wink:

But yeah, its cool to help out new player, making sure they get a good start in this game ^^.

Also got the new player some bags (4x16 slots atm), its hell to start this game without bag slots, funny part, when i was trying to trade em, the players bag was full XD!, just shows how much they are needed, hopefully i can figure out some money tricks to get some gold for some 30 slots. (might have a trick up my sleeves, like, selling old DM “warlock summon” runs to hunter who want that gun as transmorg).
