He doesnt have to deal with the playstyles if he doesnt want to. Thats why he stated no cutscenes when comprising a group.

Typical PUG players, thank God I only group with guildies.
The sad thing is the people bashing the OP refuse to read his post but pass judgement anyway.

FYI, I think he did a poor job of stating his idea. And yet I'm one of the few people trying to defend the guy.

Oh, there's not much doubt he did a very poor job stating what he wanted. But then again, that's hardly reason for people to bash him.

What infuriates is , after being clarified, people continue to cling to the idea that it's fine to force others to do what they want (watch) but it's horrible, elitist, and WoW-ish to have a group looking to skip cutscenes at all, as if that's some kind of sin.

Increasingly, I find myself not bothering to play with or even speak to anyone outside of my guild because it's simply not worth the effort of dealing with people who are offended if you don't bend over backwards to do what they want.

While I personally enjoy the cutscenes and I find a replay value in not knowing what other classes responses are in certain dialogues - I can understand if someone is not interested in them after having done that part already for the Xth amount of time.

I am sure it will relieve a lot of stress and misunderstanding if a future LFG tool will have an option to identify on what you are looking for in that instance/moment.

It's all good dude, in the end we win

To all the nay sayers: Do you think for a second that these 1000+ post threads that the mods recreate don't stick out like a sore thumb? You can bet they take these ideas under heavy consideration since there is such a buzz around them..

Things like mods, macros, this topic and more.

By all means continue to increase the post count to 1000 so they can recreate the thread for us

Thanks!

While I don't agree with the desires of the OP, there is nothing wrong with his request. He has a different playstyle and desire than others, and he is making that clear when he forms the group.

If someone doesn't want to follow the request of the OP when he formed the group, they should look for another.

We shall see lol

I'll rehash this so it is fresh -

I'm just saying that they should patch in a feature that would be located on the right click menu of the group leader under the loot rules to include a setting to also control content being skipped or not.

For example:

Someone invites you to a group - You receive the in game popup asking if you accept or decline the invitation with the addition of the party settings.

You would see something like:

Knyghtprowler has invited you to a group
Loot setting: FFA
Content setting: off

Accept or Decline?

Then people could choose to decline and you continue looking, or join them. Everyone is happy.
