Today was mostly pretty good. Got stuff done at work. Went to the Gardens and got more iris pictures. Came home (and remembered to return the library book due tomorrow on the way).
I'm now playing World of Warcraft but not, I think, for much longer tonight. I got a tell from someone who wanted me to join their guild. This happens periodically; I said thanks but no thanks. I don't enjoy group play and don't want to be in a guild. (This is 90% true. I do not mind being in Scott's guild with the alts that I pair up with his alts.)
Person proceeded to try to encourage me to join as they really need healers (my un-guilded alt is a shaman, played for ability to solo your way up). I said no, that wasn't what I was looking for. I then got lectured about how a guild could help you do instances and I should join one, even if not his. I replied that I don't enjoy groups, even for instances. I got "I hope u know that's all there is for u to do at 60 but whatever cya later"
To which I offer a resounding: dear and holy, I hope not. Leave me alone. Yes, I know that. If I hit 60 with this alt I will probably stop playing her. I'll probably cease to have interest in the ones that pair with Scott at that level, 'cos most of that stuff can only be done by groups larger than two. And really? I don't see the point. It's annoying to me, or boring, or both. And once you're 60 it's not like you can gain levels. I'll probably quit the game then and start saving real life money by doing so - or play another alt to see what another class/race combo is like.
What is it about people thinking everyone has to enjoy the game the same way they do? I am sure that if I liked it their way I'd find it playable longer, but so what? I don't. I'm really irked at this sanctimonious idiot for being a sanctimonious idiot.
