No your right, I play on East and I got called "****** newb" 3x. There was no variation it was ****** newb everytime.

For not rushing someone random, for using a chaos on my dueling assassin and thirdly because i was offering a Tal's ammy for Um.

If there is a group of pre-pubescent teens, there is going to be pricks, it happens everywhere.

B.net IS full of pricks. All the "nice" people left long ago, and I joined them.

LMFAO!!! People who try to e-insult you have no life
Picture this.
A lvl 99hdin comes into your game and has the best hdin gear, he says "HAHAHAHAHAHA YOU SUCK BECAUSE YOU HAVE CRAPPY HDIN GEAR!*shows gear to nub*"SEE!!!!!! LMFAO!!!!"
Now does that guy have a life?
If you answered yes, you have no life.
Now picture this.
A guy around your level walks into your game and sees Dclone comes, Offers to help and then ends up taking the anni
Does he have a life?
No
If you answered yes, you have no life.

The point im trying to make is its just a stupid game, don't cry about it. Yea, there are real life scammers out there too, you can cry from them, but this is just pixels! WHO GIVES A DAMN ABOUT A GAME???
Oh BTW:If you do then you have no life.

yeah there is very few nice people left on d2.. I mean back in .09 etc it wasn't so bad.. now its just fallen apart cuase everyone depends on mh now and now that warden keeps updating with new module's make maphack's almost impossible so no one wants to rush etc. But if your us west ladder I can set up a rush for you no problem.

The most fun I ever had on d2 was when I switched from LoD to classic and joined "the cult of d tree". I'm sure no one's ever heard of it, since there were only about 10 or 20 of us. Basically if you were in the cult you had to follow one rule:

If anyone (even someone not in the cult) asked you for an item and you had it and weren't actively using it on a character you had to give it to them.

I had originally joined because I thought it would be a good way to get decent equipment for my new character, but it ended up being a lot of fun due to the fact that everyone I played with was generous and cooperative and I didn't have to deal with any assholes.

No offence, but if it takes you 15 mins to figure out you got squelched, you got some major problems playing.

All you gotta do is make a game "RushMeFreePlz" or something along those lines. Wait for someone, and say you will give your forge, (since you said free, they will do it, but, the forge is a added insentive not to leave on you.) thats it. Don't start chatting, and filling up the screen with text, asking for free gear, asking to add you to their list, asking for their account name so you can add them, or anything along those lines.

If they are going to rush you free, be polite enough to let them do what needs to be done with as little distraction as possible.

I can almost garentee from your post (quoted) you are talking endlessly, or else they would not squelch you. They aren't ignoring you either they are killing monsters and rushing you. What is their to talk about? When they are done, say "here take my forge", and then "thank you good bye".
Nothing more. I garentee you will get a rush if you stop talking to them constantly.

Personally, if I'm rushing normal, nightmare, or even hell, free or not. I don't want to die and work my way back to my body. It's just time waisted.

I'm not trying to be rude, or say you are doing anything bad, just that some people try to be nice and get penalized for it by dying, because someone wants to make friends. If you want, ask all those questions after the rush.

Lastly, don't go running in areas in act 5 trying to follow them if your lvl 1 your just gonna die. This will either make them leave or get them annoyed at you. Wait in town till they say wp is up. If they don't give you wps, no big deal, you can get them later on when you are higher in lvl.

Common sence, and some consideration, go a long way.

CelestialBadger, that's the one thing that keeps me playing. I have a small but mature group of friends I have played with on D2 since I started, and to some degree, they are alot like the clan you described. That is where the true enjoyment comes from. None of us beg, or cry about rushes, gear, lvls ect. We just help each other out.

you say its just a game, but who ever u are u will get annoyed/angry if some one does that crap

WHO GIVES A DAMN ABOUT A GAME???

I used to log on b.net, on Diablo II for one reason: To be entertained. But now that everyone are such jackasses? I'm not entertained. So I care because the game is not fulfilling it's duty.

 

[minny]

Play the game, dont rush.

 

[Laharl]

I've been doing that a lot lately on Nez Mod. It's a lot more fun without people playing the game for you.

 

[Hamtaro]

No actually i never did, because if i was ever about to be stressed i just went to go make myself something to eat and just X out and help my friends with something for no absolute reason.
