@Karegina – Ah! Okay, gotacha...@John – Will do! :)<br /><br />@Karegina – Ah! Okay, gotacha. I was coming from my own experiences where my mini-guild tended to do everything en masse so I just assumed that's how everyone else was. (doh) Suppose it all depends on their mood too, if they are feeling anti-social a nice quiet 'finder group would probably fit like a glove. ^_^<br /><br />You're a much braver soul than I for jumping into trade chat. The first thing I do on new toons it turn that channel off. >.<;; (Between that and Barrens chat I'm amazed I talk to anyone in-game)Martha (Perish Twice)http://www.martha.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6306443098225235631.post-28083155790502104272012-03-23T10:50:01.915-07:002012-03-23T10:50:01.915-07:00@Martha - I didn't make myself clear (apparent...@Martha - I didn't make myself clear (apparently that is something that is happening a lot lately), when you have 12 people online in a guild and everyone is running a LFR/LFD by themselves and never talk in guild chat, THAT kills my sense of community. I completely understand that there are a lot people out there that play on 'off hours' to the rest of the server and this is how they get to see content! I love that. <br /><br />I know that my husband and I tend to help out whoever we see that needs help. If someone is getting trolled in trade for asking a 'nooby' question, we're one of the ones that whispers them directly to help them out, or invites them to group to show them. <br /><br />It sucks that in general, people are assholes. With my anxiety, I don't run things without my husband, but I've been in a group with 3 dps that didn't know what they were doing and yet we were able to succeed because I had played enough of their classes to give them some pointers.<br /><br />Anyway, this will run on forever if I don't stop it now.Kareginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15856024096017956794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6306443098225235631.post-63310134764614587302012-03-23T09:29:05.456-07:002012-03-23T09:29:05.456-07:00Martha, you need to add me to your real ID. My co...Martha, you need to add me to your real ID. My comments should have my e-mail address so you can find me :) You are always welcome to run with one of our groups.<br /><br />I am also a huge advocate of having a rank or reward system for people trying to teach people.<br /><br />(Logtar) http://logtar.com/wowAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155433907431797044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6306443098225235631.post-60531492943084187262012-03-23T05:02:43.151-07:002012-03-23T05:02:43.151-07:00I think the only way it does that is if people onl...<i>I think the only way it does that is if people only run them alone.</i><br /><br />For some of us that's the only option—which I think is why the topic touched a nerve for me. I'm a very casual player so I haven't found a good guild fit yet and thus I'm running dungeons with people who are being punished for taking the time to help me (longer dungeon play-times + no lasting benefit for them = more booting, less teaching).<br /><br />I think if Blizz did something like give the whole group a benefit for the first few times someone completed a dungeon in the 'finders it might make people more receptive to the teachable moments… *shrugs* I dunno, I just wish there was either a benefit to being nice or a punishment for being a jerk! :pMartha (Perish Twice)http://www.martha.netnoreply@blogger.com
