How often do you run into these types of players on ESO? ;-p

#6 - If you're not sure if you're playing with this guy, don't worry -- he'll tell you. Only vegans talk more about their lifestyle choices than pothead gamers.

#5 - The professional literally does not understand how somebody can have fun without doing their homework first... Nobody knows the rules of this fantasy world better than the professional, and nobody gives less of a *** about the concept of fantasy than the professional.

#4 - Nobody talks a better game than this guy. If there's something impressive to be done in the game, he's done it. That raid boss? He soloed it. While drunk. It wasn't even a big deal. That prime piece of equipment? He had it, once, but he found it made the game too easy so he threw it away. If you find yourself on his team, he's taking point.

This guy isn't here to have fun; he's here to win, and he doesn't experience either very often. He'll rage, swear, and froth into the mic, brag about his skills, immediately throw a grenade up his own ass and explode, then blame it on you and quit. Then he'll tell the next group he joins that they seriously wouldn't believe his last group -- they were so bad it was absurd. You guys aren't like that, right?

#3 - [A]ll of the girls I've met while gaming have been nigh-mute. In games that require communication and teamwork, this can be a serious problem. But it's understandable: After the barest feminine whisper in an online game, somebody will open up their *** and somehow words will spill out of it.

#2 - He's not very good and, what's worse, he doesn't seem to care. If you're playing a fighting game with the invincible ***, he's just mashing buttons, not even bothering to combo cancel (the plebeian!). If he's playing a shooter, the invincible *** is not tactically covering corners and laying down suppressive fire on the valuable assets -- he's hopping across the battlefield like a war bunny while firing a shotgun at your face.

And the worst thing is, he's doing pretty well.

#1 - [T]he little kids who think that, because they spent all of spring break playing in front of the computer, they're suddenly going to get a sponsorship from Razer and have their face printed on mousepads. The hardcore kiddie will wait for you to make the slightest mistake, then promptly declare you "a casual."

#4 Sounds like a lovable guy.

#3 I dunno, most of the real girls I've met while gaming were pretty eloquent.

Don't forget about the guy, who after getting obliterated by you proceeds to rage-tell you and tell you how you should play, so he can destroy you.
Stop using shields! Stop LOSing! Stop cloaking! Stop blocking! Stop healing! Stop CCing me! Stop doing dmg! Get naked and jump off the cliff, but let me tag you first...

Crown

Or the guy who, after you've killed him and his buddies in a small group, insists that he can 1v1 you. When you come back and kick his ass, he insists that you're a hacking exploiting cheater and whispers you every minute or two about how bad ass he is and how you've been reported....

VincentBlanquin

or the guy who ask for gold donation, so he will dont kill me next time

Easily the most outstanding visual I've heard in a long, long time.

+1 Awesome.

Obviously this list can be expanded. Allow me to start:

• Vet 16 "New Guy" He's seen the videos and may or may not have the FOTM build. This guy grinded up to max level of class ________________ (fill in the blank here) and hasn't got clue #1 how to play it. He's the tank that doesn't know what a taunt is, the healer that can't heal through mudcrab attacks, and the DPS that hits like his weapons are made from paper mache.

In ultimate answer to the thread title: "Less often than I used to. Still more often than I'd care to."

This is me

mcurley

Lol, all good reasons to solo.

Although, #6 sounds more like "The Teenage Pothead" rather than "The Informative Pothead"

Rylana

Number 2 all the way

Cathexis

I think my favourite is when you get these *** who 5 on 1 you, especially if you are an underpowered class or lower level, and then cry their face off and wet the bed when you figure out a way to beat them.

I'm a writer so I prefer typing. I'll get on voice if required but won't talk much, partly due to a crappy mic which carries game noise when I speak, and partly because the first sentence. :-)

Forestd16b14_ESO

Ssooo.... you asking if we ever ran into a arse hole before? If so then yes lots of times like few weeks ago when U7 went live did the gold pledge at v15 and the healer was blaming everything on us instead of him self cause all he did was spam healing springs that's it and he was a templar too

But back to the list I have ran into all 6 .... lots of times and it just ..... so ugh

Mojmir

I grouped with all of them last night,wish I could reach through the mic and scissor kick them in the throat

FireCowCommando

If bunny hopping everywhere in PvP makes me a number 2, then im doomed!

ToRelax

I am something between 2 and 5 I guess...

#5- Hey man, do your homework. You won't regret it.

#4- Im glad you're here helpin me win.

#3- I have never met a real live girl, but im sure theyre great.

#2- Practice makes perfect.

#1- Age means nothin and a name means less - b dylan

Turelus

I have met so many #4 on this game.

I once met a guy who was bragging about how he was an Emperor on EU PC Thornblade, how he totally owned that campaign. He went oddly silent when I asked him which character it was because my guild had been there since day one and we knew every single Emperor as we crowned them... funny that.

Fizzlewizzle

I had some guy call me names and whatnot when i made a run for it when he tried to kill me.
I was "a f*king loser" and that i should fight him instead of running away like "the little b*tch" i was, because he would "f*cking own my face".

Made me laugh, especially after it went quiet when i asked him why his NB couldn't keep up with my Templar, and if he wanted some tips on how to stop runners.

Amica

Wow a post all about me ... that's sweet guys :-)
