Did some thinking this time for my character about where i wanted to be later in the game. Decided in lieu of the dark horde that is all over thera I would make a good warrior to join the fortress. I made one whom I will not name and worked him up through the ranks. I repeatedly battled evil and lended a hand at the fortress many times. I even spoke to a few people and gave ample opportunity for discussions and the such.
I have to say that given the amount of times the fortress was attacked with so few in my range I cannot understand why they would not want to at least have made me a squire. It started to just feel like the fortress started to enjoy losing all the time instead of recruiting. It even got to the point where I was told to basically stop helping and leave.
No offense to anyone but is it just me or are there groups of experienced players who bounce around from cabal to cabal and if you dont know exactly what to say and how you are pinned as a newbie and cant ever join one? This may sound like a whine but I am the other part of the player base. I am the semi newbie who can get a character to 40 but has not been in thera long. Well if i feel that CF has become a home to clicks of exp players then its your loss bc I will get bored like i am now.
In conclusion I hope somebody reflects on that i have instead of the quick flame. Its players like me who add a little flavour so you exp players dont feel like you are fighting "bob" who has been a storm pal, fire warrior, duergar thief and you know its him.
