While yes turning down the player invite would be except able and quite frankly I would most likely do the same depending on how much time the party has. However I don't think it warrant a flame. Also to say the person is "lazy" "ignorant" is somewhat far fetched.
They've had a year and a half to get the staging points, they're either lazy or stupid at this point. They've had far more than enough time and the staging points are ridiculously easy to get.
First off it don't take that long to level up these days in fact this probably part of the problem. If a person has no knowledge of these place then how can rightly obtain it.
This
might be a valid point if it wasn't for the fact that it has absolutely no basis in reality.
EVERY 70+ nowadays camp involves one of the staging points. No one wants to go anywhere else, because they give by far the most exp/hour; so it's literally impossible to get to 75 without knowing about them.
A example of this would be when taou came out and a party wanted to go to a over crowed colibri camp because they did not know about the crawler camps or puk camps. You cant tell me that you knew where to go the first day in sky, so what make you think some newbie to taou would be able to obtain SP without help.
No one expected everyone to have every staging point the second ToAU came out, however there were guides to all 5 staging points on the internet
the very next day. Hell, people had threads going on QCDN covering where to get some of the staging points the night ToAU came out. When something is brand new, of course no one will know about it; but we're not talking about something new, we're talking about something over a year old that has been reported every since day 1. "Not knowing" isn't an excuse given the wealth of information out there,
(oh fyi not everyone has the luxury of a computer.)
What kind of dumbass pays for internet access
without owning a computer? Seriously, how do you manage to come up with these utterly ridiculous "points" to make?
I am not protecting the gimps barjaratt I'm just more reasonable to see that not everything is gimp and not gimp, and quite frankly offended about the gimps like you statement.
You are defending the gimps. You're letting people slide through the game without the slightest bit of effort and get insulted when anyone shows any kind of standard at all. I'm actually
incredibly reasonable when it comes to gimpness, there's just a point where I'm not going to let shit slide. Having standards doesn't make me elitist, especially when they're as lax as they are. Everything could be broken down into gimp and not gimp, though; but there'd be a huge range of not gimp that would cover average, decent, good, great and elite gear/players. It's still a line that could be drawn though.
I work hard for my gear and everything I do, however that does not mean that I don't understand those less fortunate then I.
You're acting like you're unique in that respect. I do understand that some people don't feel the need to buy all HQ gear(I'm one of them, even) or that they can't get certain pieces of gear without any effort; but I expect them to at least put forth an effort. I do not, despite whatever you've twisted in your head to believe, call people gimp lightly(not seriously at least). I reserve that for those who truly deserve the title, for the people who are obviously lacking something very basic and very, very useful that there is no
good reason for them to be lacking.
