Yesterday: I enter the realm, see at least 5 empire in range, I wait. Within 20 minutes, Tamuera and Yagar are around (Not surpising since we live in the same time-zone and have the same time/day to play). We group, we don't like Empire, we run straight for the citadel. As we hit New Thalos, we see Hiroj, he sees us, he quits. We run towards Balator knowing our time is short, Gheron quits as we pass the north gate of New Thalos, as we hit Balator, Solanger quits, as we hit the first set of centurions so other one quits. Leaving Stahlhagen by himself and he dies, horribly. Moments later a Fire AP, Z-something logs on, whom only I can harm, gets into a little fight with me, more than matches me, then quits not three minutes later. It's *these* people, IMHO, that ruin the game. Take us three, we are against not three people, but three *cabals*. We'd happily venture into a fight against a more numerous for but it's the foe that flees and logs on their lowbies, safe from losing their precious clothing.
You claim to have spend one hundred hours on a character, Gheron, to get to the position you are/were in and based on that, you have the right not to die, and so quit out when you are in danger. BFS, Waigerits had close to 350 hours and was around 43-44 in rank during the time when Masters were getting ripped a new one. He stuck it out. You're a complete and utter coward. Naturally I have nothing against you playing with your friends, but to do so, and still quit out when there is clear and present danger, Bah. Pathetic. You sound like one of the newbies who loot their first set of decent clothing and log on once a month to keep it. *That* is a throw away character.
