Guild Wars 2

Alright, our server is now being bombarded by guests again to do the temple zerg/meta events that their servers are too lame to not do. Many people including myself and my guildies are getting forced into an overflow at least once a night now, sometimes more. It has to be amazingly simple to move guests out of an area INTO overflow to make room for home server people. This dynamic is already in place for when you are moved from a Way Point when it becomes contested. For example, server fills up, guests get notification “you have been moved to overflow to make room for home players”. Nuff said.

and how do you know they are guest and not you server mate that are simply too much?

Because they don’t mind telling you they are guests in map chat and that their servers don’t do anything except WvW… So people that go to top tier WvW servers just to “be cool” still get to get all the loot and benefits of a hardcore PvE server (which my server NSP is). That alone is not cool. THEN we have guildies that miss events for these guests. That is UNACCEPTABLE and needs to change pronto.

Get owned.

Everyone has the same right as you to that server. Perhaps you should consider moving to a lower population server.

The point is the people who’s home server that is should get priority.

Their servers are too lame to NOT do them so they come to yours to do it… again? o.O

I didn’t know that there was such a thing as a “hard core” PvE server. I’m from NSP and almost exclusively play WvW so someone can have my spot if they want.

Can you imagine the amount of parties that won’t be able to go to a dungeon simply because the guy who has done story has his server contested

My point is that I have a hard time believing that the sole reason his guildies are being pushed to overflow is because of people guesting on his server. Just because someone from another server used map chat does not mean that the majority of the people on there are from another server. It is more likely that he is just in a very high population server and upset about overflow.

We’ve done the temple events for a long time … and it’s never been like this. I don’t mind guests, but when people from their actual home server get kicked to overflow, it’s annoying. If people from the home server get priority over guests, it’d be a lot better. You guys can come on this page and troll all you want how it’s not a big deal, etc, but it’s more than just a few people complaining. Also, why should we move to another server? Maybe the guests that want to do this so badly with us every day should switch over. Pretty simple.

At the least, players on their home server should take priority over guests while in the cue to leave overflow. There is no way for me to determine how many guests might have pushed me or other players on my home server into overflow. However, I don’t like the idea of being pushed into overflow while guests on my server are taking up spots.
