too long, didn't read

It used to be a derogatory term used for people who couldn't read more than a paragraph of text. Now it's kind of necessary because more than a paragraph or two is treated a bit like some people treat attunement in MMORPGs. I feel old sometimes.

To be fair, I think part of it is not that the new generation is too lazy to read at all, but that there's just too much to read on the internet. If I have 50 tabs of lengthy articles open (yeah I'm an altaholic and a tab-a-holic), I literally cannot read every single one of them unless I have nothing else to do that day. 24 hours is just not enough otherwise. So even though I like reading, I tl;dr or skip through stuff a lot these days. @OP: You bought a game that advertised itself as PvE-centric exclusively for PvP... 'nuff said.

Sorry chief, you're wrong on this one. I'm going to assume you don't do BGs that often, and if you do and have a different experience than this, then I want to know all your secrets. Anyhow. I don't do rated pvp. I'm not that skilled. Oh sure, I have blues and could venture in to it if I felt like getting pimp slapped by 1800+ gear people even more than I already do in practice battlegrounds, but I don't. So I do practice ones for (what used to be) fun. Get some prestige, buy some outfitter patterns, a mount, some stuff! Yep. It's not fun anymore. It's not because I've changed, or the system has changed, or something crazy has changed. It's because EVERYONE QUEUES FOR WALATIKI. I queue for random every time, now. It's randomly Walatiki every time. WAIT! Not every time. I think I did one round of Halls in the last 3 days. Maybe two. RANDOM, WHOA. Don't get me wrong. I like Walatiki. It can be fun. Eating your favorite food is fun, too. Except when it's the only thing you can eat. Even if you don't want to eat it. You have to eat it. You don't have a choice. That's Walatiki Temple, now. I spent 80-something minutes in a queue trying to do Daggerstone Pass. The NEW battleground. It's fun. I like it. Very few people seem to, and I'm betting it's because it's not the "most efficient" one or some such nonsense. So yes, if what you really like to do is battlegrounds, and there are those people, then those people are pretty much only paying for Walatiki. This is not just the OP. This is a problem. https://forums.wildstar-online.com/forums/index.php?/topic/107642-in-que-for-daggerstone-53minutes-and-counting/ https://forums.wildstar-online.com/forums/index.php?/topic/106981-random-bgs-need-to-be-more-random/ Here's more examples of people with the same problem.
