I played FFXI for several years and enjoyed the game mainly because of the community and my LS. Changes SE made in gameplay and their lack of customer service finally cut the last string holding me to the game and I left for WoW. I have been playing WoW for several years and enjoying it immensely, but now I am finding myself more and more disgusted by the community.
It's not on my main server alone but every server I have a toon on. If someone asks a simple question in chat they get varied responses from Lolnoob to stfu tard etc. On top of that there is the problem of kiddies spamming duels, stealing gathering nodes while you're busy fighting a monster near it, leaving a group that doesn't go their way or if they lose a roll on gear, and a few other things I can't think of at the moment.
Basically I'm wondering if the Lotro Community is more mature than the average WoW server. I understand that there will be assbags in any MMORPG but it seems they are overrun in WoW at the moment. I think I actually saw it coming. It's good that Blizzard has a growing playerbase but within that base of 11.5 million players there is a large number of nerdraging kiddies.
