at least on my server it seems like every other Republic player is a selfish prick.

really now I clear out the spawns so I can get to a quest item only to have some other idiot run up to grab it.


i dont have a imp toon yet so I dont know if its the same on the other side, but playing a imp you would kinda expect it.

I thought this thread would be about our American republic...

More likely to come from WoW.

i think another reason is i havent joined a guild.

cuz i hate it when guild group shows up, they never share or play nice.

usually if I am not close to being done I will move to another quest, because its just a waste of time to compete with a group for quest items.

like now I am stealthed in a corner waiting for a elite to respawn so I can kill him.

so i alt tab out and post here.

this x100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

i rolled a sith inquistor and im pretty sure i stopped playing after about 30 minutes because of barrens chat-esque talking and basically just straight up griefing from your OWN FACTION! quest item stealing/quest mob pulling/not giving a crap about doing any of those things. Maybe its just Twin Spears but holy jeebus

If you are playing an MMO, you are less likely to have a lot of friends irl, more likely to be attempting to escape from your life, more likely to be competitive, more likely to be young, and since a lot of people liked the original old republic game because you could choose to be evil, they probably also like that aspect of playing MMOs.

It's a generalization, but I think it's fair to say it applies to a good number.

The Republic is due to be flooded over the next couple months, so you can enjoy more jerks when these bore you.

In before someone who thinks preorder population ratios are accurate to estimate post-release ratios tries to argue with me.

I haven't purchased TOR but I know how these things go and my post is accurate.

Doesn't change things. There's a lot of noobs that this is their first mmo too. Did a 2 man flashpoint with a sith who rolled on a sniper rifle I wanted because he didn't know how to pass.

School noobs, make a guild, turn guild pro. Guaranteed someone did that for you, sounds like it's your turn now.
