I run a 55 bird and I'd like to think I'm fairly knowledgeable on the mechanics. Thing is, I also run a 49 pally, on my way up. All of the above posts is one of the few reasons why I don't join a PUG. I only go into public dungeons. And even then I get the odd messages telling me to go to my level, when I'm on my pally.
Just in the past two days, I went into a PUBLIC room in the Sewers and one of you level 55s from the forum (I won't name names. No point to it, but I know who you are) typed out "boot!" I couldn't help but laugh and type "nice try...". And he left. But the show went on and we all came out with hardly a scratch because the other players also knew what they were supposed to do.
And another one just today told me to "get lost, 49", again in a public room. It was fun to see all of them 55s clumped together with fever and blowing each other apart. Well, just remember a 49 reved ALL of you and saved your skins while taking aggro as well.
You're bound to find people like that everywhere; people who think they're too good for lower levels. If you don't want lower levels joining your game, create a locked room. That function is there too.
My advise?
Know your game, have a good time.
The ignore button is there for a reason.
Don't go into PUGs unless if you know the players.
And when you get to 55, don't act as if everyone below you doesn't know jack. Remember you too were a lower level before.
Coincidentally, if you ever want to join in my games, you are always welcome regardless of level. If a space is reserved for a friend, I won't even boot you, but stop the game and pm you explaining the situation.
It's all about fun and games. Keep it that way.

Traps are my best buds. They always pop up to greet me when I'm near...

Haha so ridiculous
I could solo all of hideout except GF at 48, so I know it can be done in a group. You just have to be smart about it. I loath running Hideout with ramdoms though, because I know I will end up tanking GF. It's not so bad if you have a group that knows to keep away when you get fever, but most do not.

I started running sewers when I was 45 on my bear when there was no level limit. Found some level 55-56 players who either liked my play or were too good to care that they let me play with them and level from 45-50 in the sewers. So ya there are nice people out there. One just needs to know how to handle his char. If my team mates have no objection against playing with someone leveld 50-53 I let them stay but if they tend to screw up every other second then u gotta boot.
