    Large chance that was me booting :/

    Sorry, but I have no patience anymore for dragging low levels around while trying to explain how to kill bosses/not get agro. Sometimes you have to work for it

    I may or may not be in a guild called The Rusher, where I may or may not enjoy myself.

    Okay so I did not mean for this thread to become a war. It has become one so let me clear things up

    I do not boost. I didn't buy ao3 just to level. I bought every campaign in order, did every quest, and I now has around 3500 kills.

    The point I was trying to make was regardless of my level, i would appreciate someone asking me to leave rather than booting me and then throwing in a lifeless flame.

    Now as for the other part, after reading all the comments it seems that boosting has been a problem for along time and you 50's are tired of it. And I understand that, but that gives you no right to think your better than everyone else. It's a game. Chill.

    Anyways, thank you for the explanations. I will be playing Ao 1 & 2 till around 45.

    /close if you can

    I would think the opposite. It would force people to buy all maps, rather than just later ones and then leech onto high lvl players.

    I try to play as nicely as possible. I only ever boot if someone wont leave when I request it nicely (gotta let friends in) or if that person is being obnoxious. Honestly, I really dont care if a level 5 joins my game in ao3 or anything else as long as everyone who I want to be there is there. I just let them stay and mind their own business. A lot of the time I'll even just pop into low level games for fun and wipe out the map and just gift the appropriate drops to the lower level players.

    It just seems like a level 50 would rather waste someone else's time by NOT creating their own game in the first place. Is it that 50's are just lazy? Or that they don't have much success in inviting friends when you do this? Seriously. I do not know the answer to this yet.

    And still no 50 has answered me when I mentioned the Toy Man Factory boots. "No" or "Sorry". Is it that a lower level can't handle it? I am level 36 right now and have killed him about 40 times so far in various groups.

    Maybe they should allow the option to allow people to make their own games and set a minimum and maximum allowed level of each player. When you create an instance, have min and max level boxes(Like the auction house.) and a password option if you want it.

    This sounds like a win/win for everyone.

    I have also seen lowbies getting pissed when farmers rip through their hidden grate quests also.

    Not sure what you're saying here. I only host my own games. My friends are even used to waiting for me to remake, bc I prefer to be the host. But that still doesn't give people the right to complain about being booted when they're not in the right map for their level.
    And the booting complaints are annoying altogether bc again, create your own game if you don't like being booted. I don't get booted bc I only host my own games or join a friend's (and then, only when invited!).

    I think the best asset to the game would be an option to lock games to anyone who hasn't been invited. Would cut down on boots altogether. And then you wouldn't had to worry about your friends joining you who have a kajillikn people on heir lists. It would also make sure that if you have more than enough of one class in your team, more of them can't join without being invited.

    If you dont have friends, host your own game and wait for people to join. But people would rather join random games and complain about getting booted.

    I don't even get why people complain about booting. You can create your own game. So create your own game.

    Ok, raise your hand if you have a problem being booted from a game you created. ... ... Anyone? Come on. Someone complain about a game they created... I'm listening...

    And if you do not usually create your own games, please do so. You'll find you like it. That does not mean you have to do it every time, but please do it once in awhile. How about this? The next time you get booted twice. And you're not feeling good. In fact, you think you might be angry. That next time, create your own game. Invite some friends. You'll find yourself happy again.

    Or the next time you log on, how about instead of jumping to random games, check your friends list, see where your friends are. If any of them is doing something interesting, try joining them or PM them about joining. How about that?

    Anyways, next time you start to feel angry about booting, start your own game. See then if you still feel angry about booting. Start your own game and watch people join who run off in random directions. Hell, maybe rush your boss while you're clearing the dungeon. See then if you still want the BOOT button to disappear.

    Wow this is amazing.
    A month ago, everyone pretending to be cool said "if you dont want random people to join your games, create your own locked game instead of booting".

    And what do i see now, "if you dont likw getting booted, create your own frigging game!".

    Whats next, maybe "stop complaining about leechers, we already got level 50s and are soo pro so if you got problema go create locked game"?

    I was booted from my own game.... By lag! :P.



    Anyways I find boots funny. When I get on my noob and join games I get booted for the funniest reasons. Like "Wowww gtfo" or "f***ing leech". Or best yet "Screw your life". But on my lvl 50 boots are like non existent. The only time I get booted on my 50 is if I join a nearly full ao3 game and the host politely asks me to leave because hes holding spot or he boots with reason "Sorry holding spot".

    Just get to lvl 50 if your really so sick about being booted.

    I still get booted at lvl 50 with my hobo gear (hobos cannot afford cosmos, hobos have not much luck with cosmos drops either ... just rifts and voids).

    I have to say that I burn through much more pots when the group is lower level or less experienced (example, being chivalrous and allow keeper to have his shield up before hitting him with all you got).

    I'll create my own game if I get booted a little too often (which hurts sometimes ).

    I've encountered level 2, level 27 joining us in AO3. Lvl 27 want us to pay him to leave!!

    Bottom line is... a lot of hilarious stuff happens (bears/birds screaming "Mage heal!", Lvl 30s ordering "Rev!" in ctk, players begging for pinks or gold in townes), create your own game if you don't like it or find your own group of friends to play .

    Here's my take on this:

    If you're below 40, you have no reason to be there (AO3). A lot of people farm and are not looking to waste a spot that a productive player could take. It's very annoying having to rez people after every wave. I remember doing Plasma Pyramid the other day that had a level 33 mage. I was having to rez them at every single boss room. If the host doesn't want you, then they have every right to boot you. They want to have fun playing this game too and that probably doesn't include boosting people.

    Maybe allow people to set level restrictions for maps would be helpful. Make it an option like setting the password. For those searching games, have a check box checked by default to show only playable games. This would reduce the clutter of seeing games that they can't play in. If someone wants to take this to the suggestion forum and reword it or whatever; feel free.
