I love helping out smaller laff point toons whether its with tasks, buildings or what not.
I admit I have jumped out on other toons mid battle, not to be mean but for various reasons. If I see the others just aren't listening and they constantly wake up lured cogs and just plain don't know how to play the game then I'm not going to stick around and watch everyone die.
Once, I was having a really bad day irl and was playing Toontown to try and relax. I got into a group with people that wanted to train their sound gags no matter what everyone else threw. They didn't care if they died because they woke up the (4) 10-12 cogs or not, all they wanted to do was train sound ... period. I said sorry I have to go, good luck and I left. I just didn't have the patience to deal with toons that pull out a level 2 sound gag for (4) high level lured cogs just to get himself/herself killed the next round because of it. I agree that was a dirty thing to do at that time and I felt bad for doing it afterwards but thats normally not my style.
If a group is going well and there's no obvious problems I'll stick with the group till the end.
IMO unless your a SF with someone there is a severe lack of communication in Toontown.
I remember an instance when I was playing Ultima Online (another online game) with a group of people down deep in a dungeon, back when I was living and taking care of my sick grandmother irl ( several, several yrs ago ) and I heard a scream and a loud crash. I heard that and I quit out instantly as I ran to see if she was alright. I didn't bother to sit and make idle chat with my mates ... I didn't sort out loot or give people tells telling them when I'd be back I just left. Turns out she slipped and hit her head on the wall, I called the paramedics scared and shaking. ( true story )
All we see are the toons online at the moment, we don't know what happens behind the scenes irl. Its really easy to get upset at people but what we have to ask ourselves is ... do we know the complete story?
