@Brish, thanks again, and if you read up on my backlog of posts here you’ll see many rants about things I was unhappy with, and I felt the need for a fresh start :-)

@Kromus, thank you!
Agree, some pugs really make you /facepalm but with a little patience and kindness you will get most people to shape up.
I understand most people want runs to go fast and smooth, but being friendly and forgiving will generally make a “bad” player perform better than by being rude to them :-)

‘do as he sayeth and thy may be rewarded handsomely!’
Lmao, that made me laugh :).

Well- I liked that post, because it totally highlighted how PuG doesn’t mean doom- It just means theres a high chance they wont be as reactive, nor will they be around your guilds skillset, but whos fault is that?

They could be bad for one of two reasons:
-Lost in time: They’ve not been 80 long. At the different part of the Learning curve to you.

-Rolemodels: They lack decent rolemodels, and have quite found the guilld for them yet- im sure it’ll come soon!.

PuG’s just need a bit of watering i guess :).
Although lets be honest sometimes, just sometimes, you wanna blow your own brains out when you get some pretty riddiculus players.

Awesome post :).

True, pugs aren’t that bad(i don’t like them cuz i prefer to raid with ppl that i know, didn’t said that they’re good or bad) but sometimes players lack of patience.
Idd it was a pug (back then i was guildless),but i must say that it was a dungeon not a raid, there’re some differences.
It turned out good cause you were nice ppl , still are and will be.
Didn’t managed to ask you.. but what made you change the realm?I would like to know what happened.. (hope it woun’t bring u back “bad memories”).

They were not bad players, they started out a bit on the rough side but me and our RL and the rest of my guildies were polite and friendly and the pugees responded to that :-)

Pugs are not inherently bad, you just may need a bit more patience and understanding but generally they work out good.

The first time I met you was in a Shattered Halls pug, remember? And that one turned out pretty good, don’t you think? :-)

It seems funny to me, cuz i had 2 do with something like this also. I hate pugs..but what is there to be done if not enough guildies are online? :) Were those 2 badplayers btw? :D
P.S. “Wipe? You mean, like we did not do just now? =)” u owned them haha
