...To ask you those questions you want us to ask 
So here's a few from me, @ZOS_RichLambert :
1. Have you ever just gone somewhere and helped some random lowbie out on your characters you play just for the hell of it?
2. Do you only play on PC or do you play live on Consoles as well? Just wondering because it may blow console players' minds to think they may have played alongside you and not known it
3. As a player, not a dev, what is your most memorable moment in-game? If it's hard to peg one down you could name a few

It's also tons of fun to run dungeons via LFG. I generally like to tell folks its my first time running a dungeon just to get them to explain mechanics to me. A large majority of the time the group is super welcoming and supportive which is awesome!
I play on PC and Console, though PC gets the vast majority of my play time. (Side note Matt Firor is a console nut and spends the majority of his time playing there)3.

Most memorable moments in-game:5. As a player, not a dev, what is your most memorable moment in-game? If it's hard to peg one down you could name a few- Logging into ESO for the very first time on launch day. Seeing the huge crush of people running around the world was amazing.

It really is. I do a lot of the LFG or dungeon finder because it forces me to do these dungeons differently every time. A lot of people don't know how to do them and most aren't even ready for them so it challenges me in new ways to overcome what they lack. In many occasions I have had to be the tank and healer at the same time, other times tank and dps. It makes these old dungeons new and fresh again.
I was doing vWGT tower with some of our new Japanese community doing it for the first time and we had a translator so i could explain and we got through it. They caught on to the mechanics pretty quickly.
Its a great way to keep things interesting rather than blowing through it everyday with a tweaked out group.Edited by Armitas on July 8, 2016 1:57PMRetired.

Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

I love the dye you get from killing Molag Bal. It's like a golden purple. It goes great with the dye for beating the main quest.

Same here! If we run with someone who is friendly, they get a guild invite. If they are noobs or pros, it does not matter as long as they are nice people. Because of that, we have the best group of friendly, ego-free, drama-free folks you could ever wish to play with in an online game.2 -

Saltypretzels✭✭✭✭So you would agree the random aspect of those mushrooms needs to be changed a bit? Like when they blow up on you without warning? How about they are given a 10 second spawn in timer before they are primed? To account for lag and when they spawn under the bubbles.
From what I've seen, those are the number one reason why people give up on the arena. Myself included.0
