I've said it before, but I swear some of ya'll create bot accounts to post a stupid idea on the forum so you can make a witty comment in opposition to the post and farm stars.

It's completely illogical for me to think. Yet, some of these threads have no business being made. Let alone having 20+ comments.

You would have to be very dedicated to do that.

If you're after forums reactions you'd get them faster just posting "Zo$ sucks!"

This is not an issue, the issue is that you allow this to be a problem for you. Come on now, what is hypersensitivity if this isn't it.

I don’t understand. Why are you thanking people for the run if you don’t want them to say “you’re welcome” or “no problem”? What do you EXPECT them to say? Those two responses are generally what people respond with when they’re thanked for something...

If they offer no help what-so-ever, why not simply solo it?

When someone says thanks to you, it's surely common courtesy to respond "no problem", "anytime", "you're welcome" and so on.. what are you on about?

So we can gauge acceptable answers, how do you respond when you've not really helped the people you're with?

I mean. Its a group effort. And I am not thanking anyone in sense what thank you in real life means. (might be I am but then I say like "Thanks for helping me get this monster set").

It just gives impresison of the NP guy that he thinks hes all that and I thanked him for his magnificent company.
(EDIT: or NP gal)

So if I understand this, your issue is the fact that they're saying "you're welcome" or "no problem." Why say "thank you" then? It's clearly not what you mean as "you're welcome" is a proper response to "thank you."

Why not say "gg" instead? Or "good run?"

I typically do say thank you and genuinely mean it. I rarely PUG anything aside from the vet DLCs and if we made it to the end as a group it means that at a minimum they werent an intolerable jerk. More than likely exhibited signs of being a halfway decent human being. For that they get a "thank you" and a "you're welcome" is a good response. How much DPS they had or whether or not they contributed as much to effort as everyone else is irrelevant, within reason of course.

I have noticed something that annoyes me and I am sure many other people, when doing stuff with random groups. After dungeon or raid I am being polite and say thanks for the run. Some people answer "np", "you'r welcome" or such. I don't say thanks because you most likely did not help me especially in it, I say it because of common courtesy. Naturally if someone actually helps me doing something, I will thank personally those people.

Are you American and do you also use 'How are you?' as a greeting that you're not supposed to reply to with something else than another greeting?

I say NP because using chat on the PS4 controller cramps my hand or you'll have to wait like 5 minutes for me to type out "Thank You".

99% of the time when I finished replying to someone who asked a question in chat, someone else already typed up a more detailed response so I just don't even try anymore. These are the people with keyboards on hand connected to their PS4.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And honestly, even if I say "thank you" in a group, I don't care if anyone responds. If I want someone to care, I would go to a family member, friend or loved one. No stranger on ESO is going to deserve my feelings being hurt by them or offended.

This game has decayed into utter garbage.

You're better off spending money on a VHS player.
