That's not it. It's simple common courtesy. The kind of stuff you do everyday with out thinking about it.

You are standing at a store shop window and you move over a little when others join you. You are checking your snail mail at the centralized mailbox, and you get out of the way so others can check their mail.

Really, people shouldn't have to even ask.

All you have to do is make it so if if they try and access the mailbox or the GTN they automatically dismount.

It's a bit far to go not allowing people to mount up on the fleet. It will never happen anyway. Plus there are also more than just one mailbox or GTN to go to.

I support this thread.

No, its not about him, its about you, and how the devs should cater to you, rather than everyone else.

Hypocrite.

This. I've heard people saying this about the large speeders for a long time. I've even seen it done but I have never once been unable to interact with an object.

Common courtesy in MMO's died long ago. This is the end result of the solo, ultra-simple gameplay that pervades the industry today. There are simply no ramifications for having a reputation as a jerk. Same can be said for obnoxious, juvenile /general spammers. This nonsense would get you quickly blacklisted back in the day and you would have been stuck at level 10 with nobody wanting to group with you.

No, they need to ban large speeders from fleet, or space stations.
Limit them to planet-side only.
They are simply too large, makes me feel like the annoyingly huge, sparkly, loud mounts you can buy on WoW.
"LOOK AT ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME!" is what those people are saying in real life.

I'm not sure I agree with this. Common courtesy doesn't exist anywhere online - read any forum anywhere. Common courtesy exists in the real world, where your real self might actually have to interact with the real people around you again, in some kind of meaningful way. Plus, there's the option that some people might take exception to your rudeness, and punch you in the face.

I like the idea of prohibiting speeders but giving everybody a speed buff. No more rudeness allowed. Until then, I'm going to report everybody - it's the only time the rude people will experience a consequence for their actions.


I think it says a lot of bad things about our species in that when there ISN'T a consequence for our actions (i.e. all online interactions), we will act like jerks most of the time.
