Actually, in my case the ellipses I use in place of "you fucking idiot" in an attempt to avoid being mean every 10 or so words.

Speaking of MY ellipses, here, have a few... ... ... ... ... ... ... .. ... ... ...

TLDR = I don't have the intelligence to fathom anything more than single sentences at a time.

Strange, I thought I already covered this... <check it out...MY ellipses. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

OMFG Maerilith was right, and is toxic.

Okay, say whatever you want. I'm going to be done. I'm emulating the hate I'm receiving.

What's your character's name op?

In case you are unaware, this is RnF. Anything goes here, nobody is going to cry with you in a corner because you are not getting SoW every 36 minutes. Get used to it.

That being said, I did not take your post as a "personal attack". I'm simply stating the fact that your OP has a sense of entitlement. You join this free server, and within two weeks, complain about the lack of involvement from the community. People have been here for 5+ years and have had not one complaint.

What's your in-game name? I'll be sure to follow you around every zone to make sure you are enjoying yourself here.

lol'd at solid block of unformatted txt and shit eating grin.

welcome to project 99 OP and please have a goog time here, this thread delivered finally, and now I'm going to retire from RnF for awhile <3

The honest answer to your actual question is Yes, there are many people who want new players to come join the server. Genuinely new players are classic!

Grind it out to your 20s and 30s and really try your hardest to play your class well. Ask lots of questions and try to find a few experienced players you can bounce questions off of. I have a few folks on my /friends list who're new to P99 and hit me up for random questions all the time. In your 40s and 50s gear and plat will be much easier to come by so just try to get there as quickly as possible.

The stiffness and condescension you've noticed comes from the P99 raiding culture. People who've done a lot of endgame stuff can turn into sanctimonious robots because getting so far inflates their egos -- and those who have the dedication to get that far get high on that kind of stuff. When you meet people like this just feel confident about considering them the strange, aberrant ones and keep your own dignity about being kindly toward others.

Sorry I didn't read that part either. Allow me to elaborate on what I meant by tl;dr! I meant I skimmed your post, got a feel for the content and tone, and decided it was a poorly formatted ball of bawww not worth giving serious consideration to. There's nothing any level of critical reading and thought that would do to change that assessment. But, yeah leave P99 please.

Sorry to disappoint, but I'm here to stay. Hate as you must, you'll only receive love in return. Hope you're having a great day!
