PVP and the struggle

Faction: DC NA server AS

There was a time when you could just port into cyrodil, type lfg in zone and get in a group and hop into their TS and play the game. Now...it's like a battle. Almost like you have to say "Hi, I have been playing this game since beta. I have 5 Vet toons and know how to stay on crown and follow orders. Please pick me up"

If the argument given is "well you could be a spy so we don't want to pick you up bc we don't know you. Then my response is that is sad you have gotten to the point where your only comfortable with your current play group and feel so insecure to play with new people.

If the argument is join a pvp guild my response is I have pvp guilds, no one was on at the current time though so I went "puggn" or at least tried.

If the argument is we are full start your own group. I'm just a good follower not a good crown is my response but you are right.

If your argument is "it's our guild's prime time and only guilidies in group for now." I can respect that and understand that and then this post doesn't apply to you.

@ up noob" "Go suck your own $$$$". Just ridiculous but none the less entertaining haha.

Met a lot of good friends in this game. Guys lets not get so comfortable we can't meet new people and pvp with them. If we do we will shut out new potential.

Don't know why it didn't include in the original post but the part where it says shut up and noob were tells sent to me while trying to get picked up lfg. Lol

Aww we love you Dutch. I don't do pick up groups myself, but I have noticed lots of frustrated LFGs in Azura's zone while AP farming on my lowbie lately. Maybe try another server? Haderus has been quite populated lately. Maybe you'd have better luck there?

Thanks bro lol. I hopped back into Had after going "offline" from the hate tells and the experience is much more pleasant lol.

On azura right now there are 3 main groups - VE, CN, and harlocke. During primetime, all three usually have the population to run solely from guild members.

I feel bad when I see pugs that ran next to our group, put down siege, rez, heal, etc. and are actually being good players and not pugling baddies and then they're typing lfg over and over. It's not that we don't think you're worth an invite, it's that we're usually full or only have a few spots remaining that will be held for guildies.

I can't speak for the other guilds, but when I see someone type 'looking for organized pvp guild', I'm far more inclined to talk to them than a basic 'lfg'. When we do invite non guildies, it's usually because it's an off time or later in the night and there's extra room, but you're still far more likely to get an invite if you're friends with someone in guild and they can vouch for you. Random solo life is hard, I've been there, I feel for you.

That's really good to know thanks. I will never type lfg again. Lol I will do it the way you said if I ever pug it again.

i run solo most of the time nowadays. I dont regret it, i dont have to join up with a group to be ordered to charge into a lag filled hole in the wall with oils pouring down over me with no one using purge. I was in a PvP guild once, but... it did not end too well:( have not tried another one since.

DUTCH_REAPER

bummer man. Sorry to hear the pvp guild didn't work out for you. Have you tried another since?

The only time I run solo is in IC. Main reason for trying to group is to get more AP quicker due to ZOS infinite wisdom in awarding it.
