I'm still finding it amusing if I put on cl10 rings for dms people will call you a newbie on zomg.
And they try tell you things you have known for yearssss.

Just because you have a higher cl than someone does not give you more experience than them.
I will crew with anyone atleast once and judge them by how they play not by visual stats alone.

I'm Cl11.8 and I still get talked down to lol. I don't mind directions, but I don't need them repeated at me five times like I'm slow or new to zomg, when I haven't even gotten a chance to show I understood them the first time.

But hm, yeah, kinda weird how people talk down to CL10s as well. I understand a lot of them are farmers, but at least treat people as if they're competent until they prove otherwise.

I don't mind leading newbie crews, but sometimes it's frustrating when people ignore directions. EG:

Pru: Please don't use knockback.
Cl10: *Knockback knockback knockback. Aggros whole room.*
Pru: Please stop using knockback on monsters. It happens when you r4 hack.
Cl10: *knockback knockback knockback. Keeps aggroing whole room.*

:< I always get disappointed when saying please fails to work.

Yeah that happens a lot lower level farming in dms.
In crews like that I will intentionally knock wolfs into walls or towards the crews, If i see they are going to agro half the room.

By all means use rr4 hack just know what direction its going to send the monster in before hand its not hard >.<

[Skull Maximum Drive]

I don't really mind crewing a CL10, as long as they have patience and the right attitude... Attitude is everything biggrin

I COMPLETELY don't mind, so long as they know what they're doing. If they're intentionally knocking it closer to the crew, or into a wall or something. That's fine with me. But when they knock it out into all the other monsters and leave it up to the crew to take care of the mess they made AND keep them alive... yeah, no, I have a problem with that.

[Lagorama]

It happens .-. eg. I told them not to sit constantly, their response being 'I don't care, I need to when my stamina is low' and kept having to ask them to rage their buffs let alone r1 them.

After a good hour of my patience being stretched, they left anyway, which was actually even more annoying. Needless to say I usually put people on a private list of 'never crew with' :c because they make everyone's experience more miserable.

But hey, I don't run into those sorts much, I've met some really nice newbies ; u; who are sweet and I wouldn't mind crewing again with

[SimplyABreeze]

I have no patience for newbs..unless there's someone I know with me.

[savvycrazy]

I help whoever i can whenever i can! (sometimes they tip me!) biggrin lol

Every so often I run a crew of low CL randoms. I have the advantage of playing aggro so it's pretty hard to die unless they do something really dumb... Of course, there are some of those too.

Most people though, particularly those under 10.5 are really happy to get crewed & just very friendly & polite. They're also happy to learn new things. Don't let one bad apple spoil the whole bag.

Accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative...

That's what happened with my crew earlier this morning. Switched over to a heal tank to avoid them dying a lot.
