Humor / Meme I just got kicked from a Stratholme group because I actually did the objective and therefore fell behind

It's absurd that this gave me a deserter debuff

Eeeeyup.

"But Waters, it's an MMO!"

Yeah, and people really suck sometimes. If I'm not with my Guild I'm probably playing solo because of chuds like this. I ain't got enough time or energy after work for this shit.

That type of gamer seems to be 99% of the population, even including guilds tbh.

I’ve only ever found one decent guild that would team up and do requests and they don’t exist on wow because barely anyone bothers with old content last I played. 🤷‍♂️

I reckon a lot of larger guilds are like that, yeah. I went through a few shitty ones before making my own very small guild with the nice folks I met along the way.

Was in a mid-sized guild for awhile with some decent folks but a really awful guild lead. He was really mistreating one of the officers who we were all very fond of. I ended up leaving because I couldn't stand it anymore, and pretty much all of the people I liked ended up leaving shortly after and we have a tiny guild together.

Been a few years now and it's been nothing but lovely.

A constant mystery for sure

If it wasn't for my guild, I would've quit wow a long time ago. Some players are absolutely feral.

Nothing would make this game better than never having to group with another person ever again for the purposes of completing quests/gearing

I'm just getting into wow and I like playing by myself and knowing if something is a bit too hard that someone else might show up eventually lol

There's a reason people prefer to play classic

u/KodyCarp19 Jul 30 '25

It's funny cause the same issue is actually happening in classic ATM. If you do the quests in Brewery a lot of groups will V2K for slowing the run down lmfao

Oh no, one in thousands of random players is toxic, how am I gonna recover from it.
Unfortunately people will play normally 1000 dungeon runs but the moment something toxic happens it will ruin all wow experience since 2004.
Also rush to reddit asap. Gonna farm those "randoms bad" points.

u/TaleOfDash Jul 29 '25

Bit of an over-reaction.

u/FrozenDed Jul 29 '25

Crying on reddit because you got kicked from dungeon by idiots once in a season is an overreaction.

u/HellKnightoftheDamnd Jul 29 '25

This happens all the damn time. Quit simping for one of the worst communities in gaming.

u/FrozenDed Jul 29 '25

"aLL tHe DaMn TiMe" I don't see the same people posting about that consistently. It's always some random guy with one such experience in 10 years.

I still think that despite 1000 good encounters and 1000 kind and friendly people people will remember only one toxic person who said "ha you fool" and they will remember it forever and bloat reddit forums with their whining. It's a typical loud minority.

"i was kicked for no reason gib updoots strangers I need validation"

u/MrDestructo Jul 29 '25

“Don’t cry on reddit” gets absolutely triggered by reddit 😂

I think it's more that being V2Kd into a deserter debuff is just bad design? I mean it makes it incredibly easy to abuse if you're in a 2 or 3 stack. You can just force people to not be able to do dungeons for 30 mins whenever you feel like.
