Ninjaing other people's objectives is just rude and wrong

I see nothing wrong with this.

'Guy' is in the wrong here because he's claiming a free to take objective by anyone on the quest is somehow his. What a greedy ******e.

What you're missing is that possession has nothing to do with it ...common courtesy and respect have everything to do with it.

Things that seem to be foriegn to todays over entitled generation.

Doesn't the fact the devs saw fit to place elites, or other mobs around the objective imply they expect players to 'earn' the reward? To have to put some effort in to get to the objective?

The point someone else made about clearing the way to it is fair enough. I'd have no argument with that, but when I've cleared the way and am fighting the last couple of mobs before being able to get it just to watch someone swoop in on a speeder, take the objective and then disappear again demonstrates (in my opinion) an arrogant and selfish nature.

As has been said though, others have a very different opinion, so I guess we just have to live with it.

You can't possibly be that dense. You're trolling.

On the outside chance you actually aren't trolling, yeah, the item/objective IS mine. I paid for it by clearing the way. I pay for time, and I just spent my time gettting to it by clearing things around it. I really did buy it, I really do own it.

You want one? Fine. Pay for it like I did and you're more than welcome to it.

Manners cost nothing.

Something my mother told me, but alas so many people in this world forget it in their mad rush to be first to achieve something. This game is no different than any other mmo in this regard.

My rule is: If i see someone next to a node, mob or quest objective and are clearly trying to clear to it i move on to the next one which will not be very far away.

Some people are just impatient and try to defend their actions by saying things such as "i didnt see you there" or "i didnt see your name written on it" which is no defense in any way whatsoever for such actions and show the childish behaviour that they exhibit in everyday life.

I put them on ignore and move on.

I've no interest in grouping with bad mannered oiks, but I'm not going to waste my own time trying to correct them either.

Thankfully, as annoying as they can be, the ratio of decent people seems to be higher on my main server

Respect is earned and courtesy is for the dead my friend.

I don't know you, so I don't respect you. I do not know if you have any features that are worthy of respect.

I also don't disrespect you.

Due to not knowing you, you are a non-factor in my life and, therefore, decision making processes.

Your emotions and quality of life aren't any of my concern, because we don't know each other. If you're happy or sad, my life doesn't change in any way, just like if I'm happy or sad your life doesn't change.

Again, respect is earned, not given.

Being born does not imbue you with any sort of transcendent value.

You're a congregation of atoms and electrical energy, I am a congregation of atoms and electrical energy.

We're not special.

Hold on.

You think you have the right to loot these items but I'm the entitled one?

let me laugh harder.

I agree with this fellow.

No, it isn't yours.

There is no rule that clearing easy to kill/avoid mobs makes something yours.

I mean it sure is hard to stealth/CC/send companion and then loot, right?
