Guild Wars 2

I just had to come on here and post this! Let me explain….

So recently I resubbed to SWTOR and have been having a blast with it (I really want to get to the Revan stuff, looks pretty neat) Despite the fun I have been having with the game, there has also been this terrible combat lag, where when I click a skill, there’s this .5 second delay or more before the skill is actually activated, which is extremely annoying. Now I didn’t know if this was some big issue, so I mentioned in map chat how this has been happening to me and how it’s been annoying.

I was promptly verbally assaulted by 10 people in map chat saying how I should stop whining, or how I should go play WoW, and the list goes on. When I tried to respond to these people saying how I resubbed to this game cause I LIKE it, then they proceeded to say how I was kitten and nasty stuff like that, it was really upsetting to me because up until that point, I had been really enjoying my experience with the game again.

Why am I telling you all this story? Because this terrible experience reminded me of how AMAZING the Guild Wars 2 community is and how I have never EVER had an experience like I just did in SWTOR in GW2. This game truly spoils me with all the amazing people that are part of it, who play everyday and make this game something truly special, so thanks everyone!

I’ll have to admit, I subbed back to WoW when Warlords of Draenor came out. I left during WOTLK and entered a Cata dungeon as DPS using Dungeon Finder.
The gear i’m wearing are Cata green gear obtained from questing in that Vashj area.

10 mins into the run, some party members keep posting DPS recount scores on
how much I suck at DPS, how they are fricking carrying a noob thru this dungeon,
how I should go die of cancer and various other colourful obscenities regarding my mother despite the fact I told them I was a returning player and just wanted to experience Cata dungeons as I’ve never experienced them before.

Out of 10 runs i’ve done, only 2 of them were friendly but thats because they’re also returning players like me. I then promptly deleted WoW off my computer and cancelled my subscription, and came back to GW2 and knowing that no matter how bad GW2 community is, it can NEVER be as toxic as WoW.

For those that want GW2 to implement a DPS meter, this is the sort of problem you will face. So please Anet, never allow DPS meter to be added.

Well never played the other 2 But I have played plenty of others. There are some real jerks in just about any game. But we do seem to have a better group of folks here.

This is exactly why there is no need to add a dps meter to the game. Thanks for posting this.
