Why is XboX NA server so hateful?

Alutora · February 2021

I play on EU, max cp, veteran player, and I decided to experience the journey again from the beginning on NA servers, since I’m a bit bored on EU.

I applied to two guilds, both of my applications were declined (I did explain I was coming from EU) and one of them sent explanation “no noobs sorry”. Guild, that claimed to be “friendly guild” in description 😯

I said ok, whatever, I decided to do a dungeon instead. At level 10, in Spindleclutch, I was voted out before I even took the quest. I was shocked. Some time later I got into Fungal Grotto, I checked the group, all cp players, and needles to say I was again kicked before we even engaged the first group of trash.

Plus I also noticed that, in guilds with top trader you’ve got to pay 20k a week to stay in the guild?

I’m just shocked and saddened by this behaviour, I really didn’t expect this from my American friends...I’m playing ESO for a while now, but on EU servers players help new players. We don’t kick low levels in Fungal Grotto. We don’t tell other players on zone chat to kill themselves. If someone is lacking, we offer them advice. Guilds are families, not business transactions.

Sorry for the vent...😓

I'm sorry you've had this experience. It sounds like you experienced a lot of toxicity in a concentrated amount of time

Having played on XBOX NA for a year I would say this is not typical. Nevertheless this has been your experience and I'm sorry about that.

Also, never apologize for your feelings! I'd be feeling pretty upset too if I were you.

If you're looking to try and continue your NA journey you are very welcome in my guild which I promise actually is beginner-friendly. The only reason we'd kick anyone is if they were toxic, elitist, or hateful in any way. I'm putting the description below. Please feel free to join us if we sound like a good fit!

Don’t give up @Alutora, sure you had a couple of bad run ins with toxic players, but it doesn’t mean it is the end, it just means you may need to put in a little more elbow grease. (As someone who has been playing eso on Xbox NA for 5 years and ongoing, I am fairly versed a bit.)

Either way, I could spend some time helping you get started, Craft some gear for ya (depending on your preferences as there is many craftable sets that you are no doubt already aware of.) and even help you complete “some” of the normal base game group dungeons (Specifically the quests associated as each one grants a skill point on completion.) Or you can just pick a direction and I can provide some assistance. Like travel buddies.

(May be advisable to DM me, my Gamertag is in my signature below. Do as you see fit and Have a good day.)

Hi! I am so sorry you had such bad experiences. I am relatively new, only playing for a year. I've had a few bad experienced but generally everyone has been very helpful and I was lucky to find some good guilds. One guild I am a part of is new and we are actively recruiting all levels. We just like to play the game and have fun, and even get into story telling and role playing. It is called Banners of Nirn. I am also a part of another guild that is very active and extremely friendly and helpful. They even have a weekly trial training night. They're called Unspoken Presige. Feel free to message me if you want to get involved in these guilds. My GT is CrzyFanGrl63

as an XBOX NA I say WTF!?!?!

I'm terribly sorry you were mistreated like this. I will say the servers have their share of groinks that hang out espousing all kinds of offensive Qanon type rubbish in public area chat... because MURICA, or just teens baiting I guess?

Aside from this, unless yer leeching, no one should be kicked from a normal non-dlc dungeon. LOL @ guilds that require "application".... I'd avoid those on principal (sure there might be some legitimate guild goals for performance for trials, etc., but as a beginner... avoid that for a looong time).

Always, announce that you need the quest by typing in group chat when you first enter the dungeon. people should at least wait, if not actively help. I have been a bit suprised recently with the *** who still foot race a skip bosses I need to complete even after i announce I need the quest... I guess their just to busy to bother? Nice

"american friends".. LOL, I don't even know what to say... We yanks are quite an embarrassing lot these days.. i guess we always have been.

Can people see my high CP when i'm on a lowbee alt? Is that why I never get kicked (i'm usually healer if MAG or DPS if STAM)? I certainly have a "fuzzy foreigner" type name from a "murican" perspective.

I’ve experienced similar stuff when looking for a guild, Mostly toxic elitists until I finally found the perfect guild for me
