forums.worldofwarcraft.co...ost6268469< > < > That's not necessarily a thread regarding the actual debate -- however it does go to show how many people have like 3+ level 60 characters.< > < > Remember in EQ how many people had two level 60 characters? And you ALWAYS knew who they were? Having a second level 60 character was something... rare and crazy. In WoW, it's commonplace.< > < > I have a few gripes with the Casual Vs. Hardcore debate, and here they are:< > < > If they made 5-10 man "epic" content, then all the items would be farmed by the now Ubers and sold into the AH, thus negating the need for those instances for casuals in the first place.< > < > People have multiple level 60 characters. It's not about not having the time to dedicate to something.< > < > People say you shouldn't have to make "schedules" to play a game. However -- how in the fuck do these people manage to do any other hobby? Bowling league on Tuesdays at 7? FUCK THAT SHIT MAN I SHOULDNT HAVE TO SCHEDULE BOWLING WITH 50 OTHERS IN A LEAGUE. BULLSHIT MAN. :< > < > I'm as casual as it gets... I don't even have a level 60 character. The highest I have is a Level 52 Orc Warrior. He probably has like, 1 blue? haha. Not even any purples. I almost got some purple boots -- but passed on them because I knew I never played and wouldn't make much use out of them. I play maybe... 3 hours a week if that. Last week I honestly played probably 45 minutes. Hah.< > < > They hate DKP. In fact, DKP is the only thing that keeps casual players in raiding guilds in the running for loot at all. The only downside of that would be if the loot was based on a vested curve. IE: Your % of raid attendance = % of DKP you have available.< > < > 100 DKP in your account but you only raid 50% of the raids in the last 30 days = 50 dkp available.< > < > With the amount of subscribers WoW has -- it's not hard to team up with 39 other players, especially if you're in a guild with people who compliment your playstyle. That argument is just plain bullshit. Most guilds in WoW have like a zillion members. One of my first guilds in WoW (The Goon Squad) is the largest guild in WoW, and has like 500+(is that possible?) members. I remember when we created and there was a hard cap on the numbers of players in a guild.... I mean come on -- the people are there.< > < > Does anyone else have any ideas on the subject? I'd love to hear them... <i></i> |

I figure World of Warcraft has enough content for both. If someone is casual then they shouldn't expect to have purples on every character they make to 60. If someone is hardcore, and can come up with enough folks to run through whatever instance/quest it takes to get them purples on every character, so be it. Good for them and such. < > < > I love raiding with Oryx, but I only have time right now for 1 character at 60. My alts have pretty much stayed below 25 since the game started. In that sense, you can call me casual (or whatever other colorful words you used ). As for my 1 level 60 character, she has nice gear -- not great, but nice. Of course I don't expect her to have the best because I have had to go inactive for awhile while my house is being built -- packing, moving, etc. is a bitch. < > < > Are you upset because others can get their purples across the board or are you upset that more casual folks have a harder time? I think that is the way it is, the casual = harder time, in all games though. <i></i> |

PS WoW is so damn easy that I know several "casual" style gamers that have more then one level 60. Hell one of my guild mates was at sea for 6 months and has 1 60, 1 over 40 and 1 over 50.< > < > The only reason I don't have multiple 60's is because I play like 4 or 5 times a freakin month for maybe 2 hours total a time.. that's not casual that's nonexistant play. <i></i> |

It comes down to this in the end. Casuals, defined as people that do not wish to raid, want the same rewards that take 20, or 40 people to raid, 2 to however many hours to obtain.< > < > Only due to mudflation, should casuals see the same type of gear as "raiders". You can't balance epic geared items from 5 or even 10 man zones, without putting in even better gear for the time invested for 20 man and 40 man instances. It would be a never ending cycle.< > < > As it is now, the only reason that they are complaining is there hasn't been a new "top" end dungeon for them to farm, as Dire Maul was the last one and it's only gotten easier the many times people have gone through it, and there's still another Raid instance coming after the 1.9 patch, which, ironically, balances the Raid Instance to Groupo Instance 1 to 1, where as right now, pre 1.9, it's 2 Raid Instances to 4 Group Instances. ZG and the upcoming 20 man Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj are played pretty much in the middle of both so...< > < > The thing is, what these casuals don't realize, is that over time and due to mudflation, they can easily clear places like MC, and Hakkar, which btw has better gear then Rag does, without sacrifcing little time.< > < > -Sola <i></i> |

Dolalin would actually have a level 60 character before trying to lecture everyone or before giving off his expert advice on things that he really knows nothing about (PVP, for instance). Dolalin would know his "opponents" better when choosing his battles. If the battles were taken to him, Dolalin would have the common sense to do a little research so he'd have some evidence to support his defense. For all that he was, or for all that people may have perceived him as, Dolalin was not a stupid man and I don't think anyone ever really thought that about him. < > < > Mr. Raffety, on the other hand.... <i></i> |

Oh please. Nowhere in my post did I say anything about "babysitting", and for you to term it that means you didn't even take the time to try to understand what I was saying. Take a look at your posts in this thread, and then try to say you're trying to help the problem rather than fix it. You don't have to 'babysit' to do that, it's called leading by example. Fine by me, let this board turn into an even greater shitflinging fest.

Well, maybe you should be a good samaritan and find that image from the Quake Monster quiz of the Enforcer, host it for me, and then there will be no problems! And.. just so you know, the whole "your oken quiz is so 2002" is so late 2002. <a href="http://www.botepidemic.com/frikbot/q1mons/"><img src="http://www.botepidemic.com/frikbot/q1mons/enforcer.jpg" border=0 alt="I'm An Enforcer!

Yes it was a poor attempt at being humorous but the point of the bold still stands. The humor was this is something you already know. You've been here long enough to understand how R&R can be< > < > It is not Tarot or any Mod's job to moderate this forum in that manor (this was a long battled decision, but you know that. You were here at that time. < > < > His first post was VERY hard to understand. I had NO CLUE exactly what he was trying to rant or rave about because he switched sides in his topic so often it made my head spin. When Nek posted asking wtf he was talking about. He instantly responded in a very childish way.< > < > That fueled my sling at him and others and he got more and more childish.< > < > even after that it started to go back on topic till he himself derailed it again. < > < > You are defending the indefensible at this point.< > < > Rosetta's WoW Profile Rosebud's WoW Profile< > Coin and Cleavage< > "My Give a damns busted" - Jo Dee<i></i> |

That sig is too tall and is a violation of the sig rules. Please ban yourself and if Plur uses it, ban him as well. < > < > please note that this is all sarcasm and sig rules can suck a dick on a short bus! <i></i> |
