How about instead of playing this game at all, you instead learn how to form something even remotely resembling a coherent statement. What this even says, I’m not sure.

How about a workaround such as using grouping to get guildies on the same overflow?

seriously Chrisgr, stop playing this game and go take a writing workshop/class because your English is awful. That is assuming you can read what I am typing to you…

I was going to run it through Google translate, but I didn’t know what language to choose for the “from” part.

I mean I can usually parse most attempts at English/American sentences even ones from people with the old kitten phones that don’t have real or onscreen keyboards, but this? Not so much.

Hey come on guys give the guy a break, yes his diction grammar and spelling is appalling but the sense is there. Theres no need to flame someone for using a pseudo-teen-urban-babble.

Personally I have a lot of sympathy with the idea that there is too much server hopping at the moment, causing:
- lag (because of too many players in a single map for an event)
- destroying a sense of community (either too much /map spam or events not being announced on /map as they start)
- deflation (with rares and exotics now becoming farmable)

While it doesn’t stop me enjoying the game with my friends I likewise have yet to see a good side to guesting.

Sigh. English hopefully is a second or third language for you OP. Let me see if a lil cleanup will help debuff some of the flaming.

OK. Lets see. As players, we need to zone on our servers for few hours to do the dragons. As guilds, we also need to make our guild bountys not match dragon events, according to what time those events starts /ends. Otherwise, there is a big chance that half of our guild people will end up in overflow, because almost in each map that have a bounty hunt also has some zone event.. And dont talk only about dragons ..same happens with the Frozen Maw same with Shadow Behemoth. Nice. We miss out on guild events because of the guesting system??? Someone please inform Anet that people don’t play 24/7. They also have jobs, studies, etc.. Some people have time only for few hours per day. They cant enjoy the game with friends because some guests from other servers want to say “Hi” to all dragons in all the servers. Thank you for kittening my guild event today. Awesome guesting system.

Hopefully that is close to what you mean. If so, yes, you are right. The guesting is causing problems. It really upsets me when I try to go to an event on my home server and spend the entire event in overflow, then zone in the the regular zone to see the gear being posted, because the guests left and allowed room for me to get out of overflow. I can’t imagine how it would be to have bounties like that. My guild is not even big eno to get started on the bounty system. With 4-5 daily active players, maxing 12-15 on weekends, we are only at t4 on Art of War and may actually get to do something besides bounties by maybe December 2014 at the rate we accumulate influence.

My best suggestion tho, would be two things. First, check http://guildwarstemple.com/dragontimer/ and your server before you get a bounty going. Second, get everyone in your guild into the zone and out of overflow, BEFORE you spawn the bounty quest. I never realized they were on a timer. I cant tell you how many times I have been ikittenone, /mapped that I saw a person who was a bounty and either, no one was looking for it, or only one person was hunting the bounty. It makes it seem more weird that one person spawned it for just themselves to hunt.

The other night people were getting diverted to overflow in Queensdale as Shadow Behemoth was getting ready to spawn. After the kill, as people flooded the server asking “did I miss it?” there was the inevitable guesting-bashing.

I was there for the kill. I checked guild tags. There were 3 people representing 2 guilds I didn’t recognize; the rest were natives to the server. So, at worst, there were 3 guesters that blocked access to the event. Thats a worst case; the best remains 0 guesters.

This is actually pretty common; it is not unreasonable to expect that a couple hundred server natives want to go to that event at the same time. 2 million players divided over 4 “shifts” and 51 servers, with a 5% attendance rate still comes out to 490 players trying on each server. You don’t need guesting to have this problem, and attacking guesting doesn’t mean there would have been room for all the server natives that wanted to partake.
