This reminds me.. Recently I was in a group and they refused to do alpha
loot. But I needed the xp and faction so I stayed. I was getting to loot a
little bit but then one of the members looked at my gear and suddenly
decided that I didn't "need" money or items bc I already had "good stuff".
Nevermind that I had to work my ass off to get the money to buy the stuff
and had no money left to buy spells or better items. I don't know where he
got off. I mean, I wasn't even getting xp from most of the stuff while he
was and he would've been dead 10 times over if I hadn't saved him by using
DDs to kill stuff before it could kill him. So he expected me to gain
nothing but faction? Such a jerk. And the worst part was, he was main healer
yet he refused to heal me when I had 1 bub of life left. He had 3 bubs of
life yet and started healing HIMSELF while I was near death. He wasn't even
getting aggrod on at the time. I was only injured so much bc I pulled some
orcs off of him so they wouldn't kill him. When I asked him nicely for a
heal he said "I heal the tanks first-- and I'm the only one injured". I
responded with "I think I did a pretty good job of tanking". I didn't get
healed til another person who wasn't in a group ran by and stopped to heal
me.
Luckily a guildmate of mine showed up and invited me to join his group. The
jerk was left on his own and he stupidly tried to attack the entire large
orc camp (in EC) on his own. I watched him die (nothing I could do about it
really).
Oh well.. don't mind me. just rambling.
luv,
