If there's only the one item and someone is fighting a mob guarding it I will wait my turn, but I do not see that very often from other players.
AMEN! Tie the objective to the mobs you have to fight to get it.

I think people forget that a game such as this can only be as good as its community.
^ This, and the same people or their equivalent in-game. I know it's the norm on the interwebz and online games have always had their share. Gimme a break though, pissing and moaning about devs, the game, and generally acting like a ******* kid isn't the best method for bringing attention to an issue or getting improvements.

It's pathetic.
This. Also, the inability to modify your customization choices once you are in the game and the tendency for everyone to suggest adding this ability to the damn Cash Shop! We need Facemakers and Hair Salons in the game! We should not have to pay real money to make these kinds of changes!

Character renames and transfers > Store for Cartel Coins
Character re-customization > In-Game for Credits

Only the meek get pinched. The bold survive.

i have to agree there,,this community is self destructive,,finding an BT or esseles group without a

" SPACEBAR!!SPACEBAR!!!" yeller is about 1-10..mission ninjas is common too

even a GOOD mmo would have trouble with these,,but still theyre spreading more and more

simply because game mechanics reward this behavior

I can usually find a pug pretty quickly so the times when no one says anything or doesnt want to play stand out. The former is another thing I've noticed, the fleet can be filled but no one says anything. They just stand there.

Another pet peeve is when people bring vanity pets into ops'es (that pet peeve is so damn literal). Not that ops'es are hard but do we really need more **** running around on our screens?

What grinds my gears is...

... Thinking what could have been if the goal of the designers had been to make an MMO instead of a solo game that I have to pay $15/month to play.

a lot of them are AFKers,,getting a drink, bathroom, stretching, phone, waiting for friends to log on

but yea,,when comparing a full fleet with rush hour at stormwind AH,,its a tomb
