why?

[Hoofhurr]

I think the thing that really broke the limit is when i see a guildmate asking in guildchat if anyone wanted to do such and such dungeon. I mention that i would do it, or any other dungeon they wanted to do. At first i get no response, so i ask again. Then i get a response, 'i dont know if we are going to do anything now.' So i figure fine, we can wait to see what people are doing and fill out the group. I wait 10 more mins, and respond again, 'have we figured out what we are going to do', but that person is now 'afk.' So i go get a drink, watch some tv, and come back 10 mins later. Checking to see if that person is still afk, i do a /who. To my surprise, the person is in the dungeon he was talking about. I then do a /who purge, and there are exactly 4 more purge in that same dungeon.

This is clearly addressed to me. I asked in guildchat if anyone wanted to do DM west. I just gotten done doing it and my group was disbanding and I wanted to go again. Things move fast in the digital world. You sent me a tell but pretty much at the same time so did several other people with several different agendas. I reply to you that I don't know if we are going to do anything now because everyone wants to do different things and at that time I couldn't seem to get a group going. I go afk and during that time Skaag sends me a tell and an invite to a group that contains him, Maul and Aijo. When I get back I join up with them and by that time I've totally forgotten that you sent me a tell at all. We hire Zylferr a druid when he logs on and start to do a run. The group was me shaman shaman rogue druid. Already pretty healer heavy imo but somehow we made it work.

This is par for the course how my evenings go when I'm playing. I'm usually in an instance or pvping, replying to guildchat, party chat, and having long running conversations with at least 2 people. Sometimes I forget things because there is so much going on so I apologize to you. I should have told you as soon as I found out that I was accepting the invite to Skaag's group and that a third shaman in the group was probably going to make it inviable.

But you bring up to really good points that I'd like to address as well that I don't feel are specific to this scenario but are important overarching issues.

Yes it's going to be harder for you to get into groups..

1) It's human nature that I'm pulled to grouping with the same people I have always grouped with because I know that they are competent players, put up with how I do things (I can be silly and abrasive) and tend to share the same goals I share. It's often frustrating for me to group with people I haven't grouped with before because I have to adjust to their egos or methods of operation. I thought I was doing a decent job though of inviting anyone that was interested in grouping to do stuff.

2) There are many shaman in the clan compared to other classes and while you can get away with 2 in a group due to their overwhelming versatility; three shaman in a level 60 instance such as DM west is going to handicap the group. This is simply an artifact of class ratios within the clan and I've argued that point before. Fortunately for you, in most raids you want at least 1 shaman per group and you can't say that about any other class.

So to sum it all up I apologize for perpetuating a misunderstanding by not being more responsive. Someone might call my bluff but I do try and do my best to give everyone what they want when they want it. For some reason, I find myself juggling a lot of people's interests whenever I'm online and I let the ball drop on this one. It was definitely nothing personal and it wasn't because I don't care. I'd love to group with you sometime and nothing makes me happier when you invite me to a group with 4 people in it with a clear goal in mind and all you need is a tank.

See you in game.

Edit: I hope you realize how much better things would have been had you posted this before you left the clan. Leaving and then explaining your situation is akin to pulling the trigger and then asking questions.

I'm not sure why your access was removed I didn't know anything about it nor do I have the authority to do that.
