Anyone else feel sorry for these individuals?

[Jeddite]

Actually yes, I do feel sorry* for these individuals who make these pointless cryfest about getting ganked on a PVP server in a game that's going on twelve years old.

You're not entitled to quest safely and undisturbed in contested territory.

Comes to pvp server, complains about pvp

As usual, people who aren't being victimized by gank kiddies have no empathy for those that are. It's one thing to engage in world PvP against players who can put up a fair fight. It's another thing to kill players 10 levels lower than you and making their leveling experience frustrating just because... well, I have no idea why they do it. I'm assuming they're sociopaths.

And yes, you mighty PvP "experts", if I could transfer my characters from Nost PvP onto Nost PvE, I'd do it without looking back. I look forward to your deep insight on how I am a carebear who needs to get good.

Just be happy that priests are not ganking you.

You're a non-factor.

Unless these people, like me, hit cap at launch and never had to deal with a ?? ganking us while we leveled - not that it was all roses by any means.
But for the people who have not leveled since launch, you likely do not understand how severe the problem is. When I leveled my first character, there was a metric fuckton of people, but no bored 60s ganking zones. Or bored 60s helping their bitch-baby friends who can't 1v1.

Tonight, over 2 hours, I was killed by 5 random passing 50-60s.
And camped by 3 separate 60s that were either alts or guildies of characters my level that I was mercing while leveling. They both camped me for 15+minutes (not that bad by most standards). It's part of the game, I get it.
[All while a raid of 60s from my faction sat in the town 30 seconds away, but didn't want to get involved because they had world buffs. kek]
It is absolutely harder, slower, and more frustrating to level now than it was at launch.

I understand it's hard for many people to empathize, but I figure it's worth a shot to at least lay out the rational argument.


Of course, the overwhelming reality here is: Nothing can be done about it. People are always going to be nasty when granted power & anonymity. But that doesn't mean you can't at least express sympathy for the people leveling up their first character on the server. They're here for the same reasons you are, to experience Vanilla WoW in all its glory.

I appreciate you taking the time to do so.

Sadly, I agree. Jerks are going to be jerks. Sometimes, you just need to let off some steam and hear someone say, "I sympathize with you; it sucks."
