My Gripe For The Day

I know that I run the risk of pissing off the vast majority of my guild mates, but I feel like I need to vent a little bit lest I asplode.

A year ago when we went over "all this stuff" I cautioned against the road that was being breeched - I warned that it would end up being exclusionary, I warned that those who were uber-casual would get left out when the mood or opportunty struck for them to do what they wanted, and I warned that people would get the impression of "cliquey-ness" whether it existed or not.

I understand that people can't just up and go whenever they want to these things, but I also thought that in a guild like ours, exception would be made and accommodations would be made for the uber-casual when they wanted to experience some of these things. I was under the impression that things wouldn't end up like they have.

I reluctantly agreed to things when this was all hashed out, and since that time I've only been proven right. Want to show me that I am, in fact, wrong? Take me over a "regular". That's the evidence I need. Act like my inexperience and meiocrity is actually preferred simply because I've never been and you'd like to let me have the experience over someone who's just "doing the grind".

That's all I got. Consider your toes tromped upon.
