And I can't for the life of me figure out why I quit....

UCMers - they matter ONLY if they are sitting farming a piece/kill/etc that you need for a quest. The real issue is people feel that the UCMer is getting something better than themselves and take it personally. Did your game suddenly end when I hit 275? Did your game end when I got my 1000th rare? Did your game end because I killed a d golem in the whatcha ma jigger placer you getto from Stonehold? Did your game end because I was bored and beat the snot out of Wasps in Menace? A majority of the complaints are your getting more than me and thats not fair. And then there are the BUT I WANNA MACRO HERE whines, and the WHY WON'T YOU LET ME LEECH whines. Amazing idea, there are other spots in the game that offer around the same risk and rewards, you might have to kill a couple more things but there is more to the game than Arcade, Quest Hub, Fuins, Eaters, EO.

Quest Leaders - I find them ego stroking and demanding of attention. Despite the claims of "helping everyone" it is more an ego stroking exercise. All fall on your knees and hang on my every word. No one else can run those quests, because they get yelled at for not seeing a message that the LEADER was going to descend from the heavens and show us morons how to do it. Once upon a time EVERYONE would learn the new quests and they would run them, now you all sit around waiting for the great leader to decide your worthy and you have bowed and scraped enough to be deemed worthy.

I'd like to take this time to remind all of you that this is infact JUST A GAME, the balance of power in the universe does not hang in the balance. If your going to dislike people, find real reasons not something silly like well he wouldn't let my vassal leech. If your spending more time running around trying to get those damn UCMers banned, your not actually playing anymore, and this could be why your no longer having any fun. Being the fun police is neither fun nor useful.

But then what do I know... I quit because I stopped having enough time for it to be fun...

Wubbie - How is it a guy who played a chef was having way more fun than you? Didn't have the most toys, the best toys, and somehow I had fun... look into having fun...

Um, yeah, that is the way it is all right. Surprising how few have been able to arrive at the same conclusion as your keen vision of the way things actually are.

when my account got booted for CoC I was not UCMing and I did not accuse anyone of reporting me. I was trying to point out there are people who play without 3rd party programs (which allow you to attack and type at the same time)


I put my girls in an out of the way dungeon I mean geez how many people do you know still do the quiddity orb quest yeah the one where you run around looking for the north and south black claw critter. I figure they are out of the way cannot harm anyone and can have fun but oh no about their 3rd day in there going into the 4th hr or so I hear grandma come quick someone blue talking to us grandma I get to keys explain whats going on ok np and they gone


well I decide to move the girls so I took them to underground forest just outside GW you all know the place right nothing special just a place they could run around in and have fun they are there about a week or so and grandma that blue person here again ok so now I am really racking my brains to think a place for them and I remember and old dungeon on the plains with virindi and tuskers wrong they lasted 1 day there.


So as a last resort I got them flagged for the ancient olthoi queen dungeon in zak and let them loose in the tunnels 3 weeks they lasted and got booted for CoC problem it stated no length of time but after 4 hrs I ended up getting it reinstated which I still have not been able to access yet and its been almost a week now. I just think its really weird they not suppose to be all that worried about UCMers I hear but yet my girls got the bad end of the stick.

Sounds like somebody is stalking you. Do you have "appear offline" checked? If not that would be a good first step. I have the "appear offline" checked on most of my toons now because I don't care to be bothered.
