I had 2 level 70's on their low level accounts helping me grind. In ONE hour I was level 3.
It took you an hour to get to level 3 with two 70's helping you? Yeah. Right. And I'm pretty sure you can't party with a 70 till your 15 or so, but I could be wrong.

Level 3, I wasted an hour doing constant quests and grinding, and this is what I get. The Quests!? kill panthers till you get 4 claws? YEAH RIGHT, its more like "kill 2000 for 4 paws and get a crummy reward".
Panthers... I take it you were in the starting night elf territory? Lmao, the drop rate for paws are about 70% per kill, if you can't complete a quest that easy, you have no chance in WoW towards end-game. Laugable, and yet not the WoW I played. Were you on a private server?

I was really stuck when I was on by myself, no one would heal me when I needed it. No one would help me when I needed it, or asked a question. There were real idiots in the chat, acting like they were the "win" and above me and calling me noob for trying to get help and advice. People telling me. "It takes 18-52 hours to get to level 50-70".
If you're level 3 or so, you don't need somebody to run around healing you. What class were you? WoW has a strong emphasis on soloing in the beginning (which is easy as hell), so once again, if you can't do that it's best you keep out of WoW. And funny, on every server i've played (Suramar, Exodar, Jaedenar, etc.) the people on chat are always nice and and always helpful. Seems like your in a fluke server.

Seems to me, the purpose of the game is to get to level 70 to do all the "fun" stuff. People tell me getting to 1-20 levels is a pain, and yeah.. it is, getting to level 5 is a PAIN. I was broke too most of the time, couldn't buy any gear, the beginner area wasn't as populated.
lol, you're crying about getting to level 5? Eek! And what are you expecting at the level - full on level 70 plate gear to buy? WoW is progressive, so yeah, its gonna take some time to get better gear. And night elf beginner area's are not as populated now due to blood elves, but there always a few noobies running around. Did you try general chat?

I'm done quoting you. You speak of a WoW I am not familiar with, and your gripes are either redundant, or make no sense whatsoever. WoW is a very easy MMO to get into, and if you can't do that good luck searching for another one.
