Tiger - Venture Co.

This is something we hear once in a while and frankly quite often these days. People want to get through an instance as fast as possible to finish some quest or get a nice drop from a boss. Why they don’t take their time to get a group around their own lvl and do the instance the traditional way I guess can only be because they’ve done it before and find it boring and want to get it over with. Unless it’s because they are simply lazy or don’t have the patience to find a regular group. I’m not saying it’s always wrong to get boosted through something or get some high lvl people in your group so it will be a bit easier. And I’ve also helped people through some instance where they just run and loot while I clear the way. I don’t see much fun in it, but that doesn’t mean I judge anyone ever doing something like that. However I get tired of people who always want to get boosted through instances and quests instead of taking their time and play the game as intended. And ofcourse it doesn’t help if they ask every day and maybe even several times a day. Then it seems to me that for these people it’s a race getting to lvl 70 not experiencing the game. Now we all have different ways off playing the game and if people wanna get to the highest lvl fast I don’t have a problem with that even though we all now I took my time getting there. But when people keep nagging fellow guildies or random highlvl people it gets old very quick.

Some people have a high lvl char and maybe more than one and everytime they make an alt that go through the same stuff. Understandable not everything is fun repeating and particularly not if it takes a lot of time. So it’s fair enough you ask your friends to come help and make it a little easier to complete. If your friends are busy at that moment, well then tough luck. We got a rule in Tiger saying that you are free to ask for help from your guildmembers, but don’t expect them to be your personal levelling/ grinding robots. If you are having trouble getting a group/help try to arrange a time where people can help, maybe even ask for help on the forum.

Just so we are clear; this post is not aimed at anyone particular in Tiger and I didn’t write it now because of some resent events. The only time I really thought it became an annoyance to me was when everybody made belfs and all we heard in guildchat was people asking to get boosted. Then I must admit I couldn’t help thinking “does nobody wanna play the game anymore?” And then there were the few times where some people seemed to resent that they didn’t get the help they wanted, when they wanted it. As I tried to explain I don’t mind people getting boosted in general, though I don’t always understand the fun in it. But as long as people don’t spam guildchat with requests about getting boosted and be fair when nobody has the time to help, I’m sure we can all help eathother out from time to time :)

Happy hunting all!
