    People ignoring other people in the guild chat. When somebody says something and stays ignored.

    People asking for crafters. That's it. They don't provide any info, so a crafter would need to message them and ask what they want, what's the tip etc. And usually the tip is something silly like 5k maybe 10. And you're like - really? That's why I stopped doing what I"m doing? And then all that awkward part where you have to back off.


    People complaining about players playing how they want.

    When this "how they want" slow down the group, cause a wipe etc, yes, the group can complain.

    I'm not talking about content like vWGT. I'm talking about most other dungeons, which are rather easy to complete, even with a group member underperforming. I feel like using whatever abilities you wish should be encouraged in an Elder Scrolls game, but this is an MMO, so I understand both sides. My point is that some people will constantly nag about your build doing .1% less DPS than it should. I am someone who will grind for hours for BIS, but I understand that its not for everyone. Unless you do not know how to use abilities, if this is in a normal dungeon, it shouldn't matter. If this is a vet dungeon, then yes of course they should know what they are doing. They shouldn't be told to rework their entire build just for not being meta, however. If the difference is only marginal, unless you are doing vMOL, I say go for it. Try that crazy concept. It is just a game, afterall. Just because min/maxing is fun for you (and me), doesn't mean it is fun for them. Don't ruin their fun.

    No one EVER complains about a build doing 1% less DPS than it should.

    Also your last sentence. Sure, he wouldn't ruin their fun IF they didn't come to his group being bad and ruining his fun.

    People complaining about getting kicked for spamming wrecking blow in a dungeon because "they wanna play how they wanna play".

    I wonder if thats why I got kicked out of a dungeon the other day? For spamming jabs?

    Players attacking mobs they don't need to and dragging them closer to nodes to make it look like they did. And then when they cry about someone taking "their" node while they were killing those mobs that they didn't need to.

    Players who complain when you attack "their" mob.

    Players who complain that you didn't help them with the mob they were fighting.

    Players who are attacking everything in a delve, so you start doing the same so you both get to the boss together... Then they wait for you to get agro and make a bee line towards the boss. Believe it or not that 800 plus CP player isn't slowing down because he needs your help on the boss, he is slowing down so you don't have to wait several minutes on the respawn.

    Players who think they own the area they are grinding.

    Players who enter and attack the mobs where I am grinding.

    Little contradiction there?

    When you move as an AoE is placed on you then you're already out of the center which means you're out of red faster. You don't stand still in one spot unless you know you can.

    Oh yes, this!

    "For this boss fight, just stand still. If you move around you will spread the DoTs and too many people will get it. If you stand still, it won't spread, and everyone will survive that phase. Any questions? No? Okay, tank, pull!"
    Single DPS moves all over, stacks the DoTs, and wipes the group. Repeatedly, until kicked.
    Why be normal when you can be better?
