It was my understanding that training out without warning was a suspendable offense? I don't see how there's any choice in the matter. Even if it's not required, I think it's pretty bad form to not let people know.

Hum, weird. I coulda swore this was written somewhere, but can't find it. Maybe it was removed.

The people don’t hate you because your calling the train. They hate you because you are training them. If you train out enough times that you thought you needed to make this post, then stop trying camps you can’t handle. Especially something like the lord, where if you try to get out, your going to take another group down with you.

If you train, you should warn people. If someone else trains you, and you also flee, and no one else has warned of the train, you should warn people. And yeah, sometimes people respond with anger. And surely we all understand why. It usually makes me very uncomfortable when others direct anger at me. Perhaps you feel the same. I think I'm getting better at not letting it upset me, though.

But there is also another option, which is, if you mess up when doing a camp and fleeing would result in training other people and causing them to die, you just stand your ground and die.

And there's even one more option, which is to play the game in an extremely meticulous and cautious way so as to minimize the possibility of having to flee. Obviously, no one can manage to do this every time, but I think many players take unnecessary risks.

The better we play, the less we train those around us.

You could make an ambiguous macro.

/shout Watch out some dude is training the zone!

Is there any point in standing my ground and dying if another group member is going to run anyway?

I'm playing a rogue, I just warned the group 3 times about invisible wall, careful of this and that. Someone accidentally pulls. TRAIN!

Heck I even predicted that train would happen so I told a member of the other group to look out.

Way more triggered when some dude sprint through me with mobs without saying anything. At least if you call the train, I can react and move/run. If you just drop a bunch of necromancers/shamans on me, I'm probably just dead.
