Got Arianthe up a few more levels (alternate hunter--I'm using her as a guinea pig, more or less, so that my main with Ken's character 'works' better when we play.

Wound up standing aside while a small group of players stormed the same place I was trying to complete a quest, which is no big deal. But when I got to the boss fight for that particular task, they stormed ahead of me, killed the guy...and then stuck around to kill him about five more times. I went ahead and parked myself at that point and just watched. Considering the range of levels they had, I think the higher levels were trying to get the low levels up to speed. Which was fine, right up to the point where they more or less parked themselves right on the boss.

So I kept waiting. All but one of them finally moved off (the lowest level one), and then 'she' whispers 'Do you need help?'. I said 'No ma'am, just waiting my turn.'

She apologized and moved off, accidentally set the boss off again, but didn't fight back, so I went ahead and attacked and got his head, then made for the exit.

Saw the whole group again back at the guy who gives the quest, got my reward, moved on back to the 'city', and started selling my loot. One of the higher level ones (gorgeous black tauren) followed me in, roared a few times, and then offered a duel (which I missed, because I was concentrating on the seller's list, and not the little strip of beige with the accept and decline buttons). He took it off, though, went back outside.

I finished up, took my own character back outside, and then signed out.

I'm not upset, but it was a little trying to work around them. And I wasn't up for a duel, either, so I'm kinda glad I missed my chance at it.

But I also wonder if I was unintentionally rude.

ETA: Also, someone kept killing the ginger cats tonight. I kept finding little orange corpses around the towers. :(
