Guild Wars 2

Having read one of the extraordinarily annoying ’I’m offended by totally unrelated events’ threads and noticing the proliferation of more, I have a suggestion for Anet and their 2016 April Fools event.

Remove all weapons skills and have our characters perform therapy on all of our in-game enemies so we can finally bring peace to Tyria. Our precision stat could be userd to calcaulate Critical Breakthroughs where we get to the heart of Tequatl’s angst or The Claw of Jormag’s maternal issues. And all of our elite skills could be hugs and Teddy Bears.

April Fool’s 2016 – A kinder, gentler, more sensitive Tyria

The thing that irritates me most is the lack of tolerance for each other on both sides of the fence.

It is not true that people are rude just because they find this April fools joke funny. It is not true that people are sad unhumorous beings just because they don’t find this April fools joke funny.

It’s just a different level and view on things like respect and freedom. I wish there was a more adult way in this community (or in western society in general in 2015) to cope with such a situation.

That is the really bad message I get from this situation.
