Thread: Attitude Adjustment People read our threads it seems

We all know the threads that have occurred on why doctors don't answer tells. An underlying theme was ruddeness and most Master Doctors keep their tag off.


Well I noticed a similar thread ws started in the Valcy Galaxy Forum.


After waiting for a bit I decided to do something I have not done for months. I put the master doc tag on and I have not taken it off for two weeks.


In that time I received only one tell that could be considered rude which I replied "well you don't have to be rude" which I got an apology afterwards...hmmm


Change of attitude it appears on Valcyn..A very good thing.


I now get tells "Are you buffing today?" and such and not "buff me". And if I say "Not at the moment" people are just saying "thanks anyway"


I think between venting in this forum and the Valcyn doctors venting in that galaxy forum many people finally got the point. It seems I can now have my tag on and not get rude requests.


Those of you in other galaxies may want to consider placing similar threads in your Galaxies. It might help.

I always used to ask nicely if a doctor was buffing... it's just common courtesy.



Now, I don't worry about that.





"There were young knights among them who had never been present at a stricken field. Some could not look upon it, some could not speak. They held themselves apart from the others who were cutting down prisoners at my lord's orders, for the prisoners were a body too numerous to be guarded by those of us who were left.
Then Jean de Rrye, an aged knight of Burgundy who had been sore wounded in the fight, rode up to the group of young knights and said: "are ye maidens with your downcast eyes? Look well upon it. See all of it. Close your eyes to nothing. For the battle is fought to be won, and this is what happens if you lose."

Other than being called a racist because I told a person that I do not buff rebals or neutrals, I have been impressed how the tell hell has some what died down. People seem to be more patient when they are asking you for things and sending tell.

For the past 3 days I've been pretty busy redecorating my hospital. I'm on Talus, so its not a really busy place to begin with. But in those 3 days I've gotten many tells asking for buffs. None rude. Its just that fact that I'm busy, so I tell them I can't. Usually people ask for a WP and they come to me, and thats fine sometimes. But usually when I say no, I mean no. I want to enjoy this game to the fullest, and if I have to stop what I'm doing to buff people every 2 seconds I just get frustrated. Thats why I take my tag off.


Another reason I don't really wear my tag is because of the endless amounts of people asking for heals. Yes I know that I'm a healer, but there are people that need the XP and tips that people should be giving to the medics/docs. I charge for everything I do, so when people ask me to heal, and I say I charge for the number of packs I use. I usually get some rude comment thrown back at me. I don't have a problem with taking time out of my day to heal or buff people, but the consent tells asking for it just gets really old...

I also think that many players have realized that Master Doctors are hiding from them. I can understand a level of frustration with not being able to find a Master Doctor when you want buffs. Actually the only rude /tells I have gotten recently were from fellow Doctors, eitherlooking for Enhance Kits or thinking I was charging too much for buffs.

They can piss off. Thats what I think. Not like we can do anything to really get the credits we need to keep all the harvester running. If Docs want Enhance Kits, they better start lvling the crafting tree and stop being lazy. I really wish that only MD's had the ability to buff....that would solve a lot of problems right there.

Let us know how you really feel lol.


This was kind of in the context of Master Docs that remove theur rag because of rudeness anyway lol.


I think Travin is right that between the posts people are seeing Master Docs hiding from them and have figured out that we do not log in and log out from the Coronet Starport being buff bots.


But at any rate the change is good, having the Master Doc tag out is getting some respect not at least on Valcyn unlike previous weeks

I agree.....but it's still pretty rough around the edges.
