Forum leveling grind is too hard.

Seriously, I'm tired and now I have to go play ESO all day. How can I level faster. I feel like I'm nerfed and other players are OP. Is there a good place to grind? I tried the German forums but I think it's bugged out because there was just a bunch of weird words. Is EU down?

Any help would be great as I've been stuck at this level forever and the loot drops suck awful.

Also, where are all my skills?! I have no skills and that makes things harder.

    Perhaps there was a forum nerf in patches 1.1.2 and 1.1.3?

    Funny, but there actually have been a few forum nerfs. It used to be much easier to level in the forums because you had more achievements and there were more categories to level, such as "like".

    My insight is really low but that's because I don't put any points into it. My LOL isn't working right either but I think that's because we're playing with so many bots.

    This is hilarious. I almost made the exact same post yesterday but managed to restrain myself. Thank you.

    I mean seriously, how many freakin' forum points do I need to get to reach four stars? It's harder than getting to VR9 FFS.

    Man, I just made level 3 with 54 likes, 7 awesome and 24 lols. Probably need to level insights some more.

    You guys just need L2P.

    Forum leveling much more fun the VR leveling.

    Seriously, he must've used an exploit. My bet would be the "troll idiots" exploit.

    lol nah your good man, just trying to do the same thing you are, grinding my way through the forum ranks 1 Agree, Insightful, Awesome, and Lol at a time, with the odd answer thrown in there for good measure.

    @Tiyamel‌ It's tough. According to my stats (aka: forum DPS) I specialize in absolute nonsense! And to think you don't rep for that!! I'm so nerfed.

    Sry, but this is the funniest thread on the forums I've found for a while.

    Maybe a good approach to grind the level in the forum is to write a guide.

    But better be fast before it gets nerfed *lol* .

    Thx to Giny, Sarana, Thaili, Derra, Cherahim, Gloy, Raweelz and Drimacus, you make the game worth playing even with AoE-caps, no usefull progression past Assault / Support Rank 10, and with PvP being not even close to balanced.

    I cant solo guides because of my insight problems!! I'd need at least a 3 man group to make it elite but the only thing worse than grinding in the forums is GROUPING in the forums.

    just be active in the forums, in a good way of course :) no trolling or baiting, if you know the answer to someone's question then answer it, you might get some points for being helpful, and yeah as you get further maybe write a guide or 2, there is still plenty of stuff in game not documented yet :)

    Well it's a lot harder to level up on forums if you're actually trying to improve the game (highly unpopular, since most forum users are bitter players who already left for Wildstar or whatever else) instead of messing around trolling and collecting lols.
    Apparently 99% people who agree with you are still too lazy to hit Agree button, or they just simply don't visit forums (like most of my guild)
