Its starting to get old quick. im 2 levels from 70 on my priest and shat is becoming a no mans land. So we are out a hub. Its just showing how sad some players are nerd raging and griefing everyone they can.
Oh well.

I think people need to lighten up, it's a event for a small time. So what if you get infected a few times, no biggie, just as a healer to remove disease, or erupt when you become a zombie.

If by "small time" you mean "three weeks"?

That's almost a full month of play time that you were charged for.

It is difficult to "lighten up" when you are prevented from playing the game on a PVE server by other players, and the only respone you get from people are "lighten up", "it's just a game", "just go with it", or "stop complaining".

People brag about killing low level people trying to quest. How funny it is to infect the auctioneers and bankers and quest givers. And if you say something about, the overwhelming response from the player base is "stop whining, it's fun".

That degree of disregard for civility is staggering. To borrow a phrase from a show I used to watch, "Tell me. What have I done to warrant such disrespect?"

This event is ruining the whole game until Wrath of The Lich King is out... which for me is anoying im trying to level a character to 70 so i have atleast two 70's when it comes out but that is imposible.. Then i tried to do some bg's so i could get some PvP gear, just to find out that the battle master's are mummified monkey's...And the disease only uses 1 minute to make you a zombie so if a zombie hit's you 6 time's you'r a zombie.

This event has cleary got to far.. I wish blizzard will never ever make something like this ever again..

No. Not people. Not the player base. They are scum. Calling them anything else gives these things more credit than they deserve.

Wow... Harsh, huh?

The idea is, everyone is supposed to get into it, which is why the infection gets faster everyday. I'm sure Blizzard's ideas were that the whole player base would kind of enjoy it, some being zombie,s others killing zombies.

If you don't like it, stay away from the Major Cities... I mean, most of the quests during leveling don't come from them anyway.

It's not the idea that people are taking issue with. Bottom line, I think, is that it puts too much control of how you play the game in the hands of other people. I wouldn't mind if there were wave after wave of Scourge invasions in each capital, or even each zone. That's part of the lore, that's an easy way to "get into it". I wouldn't be happy to be killed by a random ultra-powered enemy just walking around, but that's part of WoW. That would suffice to get me mad at Arthas.

But I'm not. It's not zombies doing this. It's people. Just because You're Infected doesn't mean you're a mindless scourge. It's still one person sitting behind the computer, making decisions. People are rather flagrantly taking advantage of this system. Maliciously infecting themselves, then walking into banks/auction houses/war rooms/training areas and just infecting everyone, effectively shutting people out from just basic interaction.

This isn't the Scourge. This is people. Players.

I'm not irritated with Arthas for bringing the plague to the city. I'm irritated with the idiots who think it's funny to infect as many people as they can for as long as they can. That's just plain griefing.
