It&#8217;s All I Need!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>My guild on Arathor is very small, but we are a pretty effective raiding team.  There are only 28 characters in Shockforce and probably 20 human beings behind those toons.  We split the guild into \u201craiders\u201d and more \u201ccasual\u201d gamers (they are all in Shadows of Shockforce).  A requirement to move into Shockforce from SoS is that you have to finish the Karazhan key quest.  Then you can enter Kara and enjoy the raiding fun!<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve seen a lot of guilds, talked to a lot of players, and I really like our small, close nit community.  However, I thought it would be fun if I described in general terms the more annoying WoW gamers I\u2019ve met along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Please Help Me! \u2013 This is the person who joins a guild and expects everyone to drop everything and level his character.  Since I didn\u2019t have this luxury when I leveled my own toons, I have little patience for this type of person.  Learn to play your class, and level on your own.  It\u2019s Ok to ask for help on some of the more difficult quests, but guilds aren\u2019t power-leveling services.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Phat Loot! \u2013 This guy is playing WoW for one reason.  He wants loot and doesn\u2019t care anything about your guild.  He\u2019s the kind of person that will sell his grandmother for a ham sandwich.  He\u2019ll drop your guild as soon as a better opportunity comes along.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Drama Queen! \u2013 Everybody is picking on this player.  Nobody likes him.  Why didn\u2019t he get picked for an instance run!  Drama seems to follow this player wherever he goes.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. I\u2019m Too Leet! \u2013 A lot of Everquest refugees seem to fill out this profile.  These players have seen it all, done it all, and don\u2019t want to hear your noob suggestions.  They are usually just marking time in your guild until they can get their application approved in a more \u201cleet\u201d guild.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Mo\u2019 Money! \u2013 This player is constantly asking you for gold.  Nevermind that you have to spend countless hours making your own cash, or so this kind of reasoning goes.  He\u2019ll spam guild chat asking for coins, and he\u2019ll send you whispers begging for riches.  And oh yea, he\u2019ll pay you back!  He swears!<\/p>\n<p>Mr. I Can Swear Like A Sailor! \u2013 Want to read all of the known curse words in the English language?  Enjoy seeing female body parts described in oh so sexy ways?  This player aims to please.  Usually between the ages of 12 and 15 (or at least acts that way) and probably never seen those aforementioned female body parts, the colorful language is quite entertaining.  If you want to relive elementary school.<\/p>\n<p>These are the major types of WoW-idiots one comes across every now and then.  And they are annoying as hell some times.  I particularly enjoy the kid who quit our guild SoS (where he constantly begged for money), joined a new guild, and continues to beg me for gold even though we\u2019re not in the same guild.<\/p>\n<p>He was the first member of my Arathor ignore list, hehe.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My guild on Arathor is very small, but we are a pretty effective raiding team.
