Guild Wars 2

Went into Heart of the Mists to try getting into sPvP again, and as I was chilling in lobby testing some runes and builds, someone was asking in map chat for the last person for their PvP group. They were asking for serious players and required VOIP. I made a joke (a really bad one, but no one was talking so why not break the ice) of “Do you even voip bro”

Nothing negative about that. Just a simple little phrase. After feeling satisfied with my build I leave the mists and not to long after I get a message from the person that was asking for more people. He sends me my win rate, and claims I’m trash talking when I only meant it as a joke.

This isn’t the first time I’ve seen toxic players. I queued with a friend who is quite a bit higher than me in terms of rank, and the entire time there was trash talking in map chat.

If players want more people to play in sPvP something needs to be done about toxic players. It’s the same thing in League of Legends, another PvP heavy game. Constant trash talking is not healthy and needs to be addressed. Bad.

Sorry if this post doesn’t belong, I’ll gladly have it moved or deleted but just throwing it out there.

Just ignore people like that.

Taking the time to look up a random player’s W/L? lol so serious esports!

PvP players take this seriously. When you aren’t in VOIP its hard to adjust to important moments in the game. This is why solo queue is a joke – when you can’t talk to your teammates or listen to them call things out your rotation is going to suck.

Welcome to the Mists.

No but really. Anyone who is looking for a 5th in the Mists isn’t too great themselves.

So what kind of subcranial implant to you suggest, one that releases chemicals into the subjects brain or one that interfaces with the neural network via electrical impulses directly?

He said nothing obviously inflammatory that could be sanctioned I’m afraid.

From his view point, you were the first one to start trash talking. Are you seriously that oblivious to not see that?

Sorry but we, seriously PvP players would not take it as a joke. Sure you don’t mean it but your joke right now, in this very situation, is like put oil in a burning flame.

PURE TOXIC.
That guy was a rude crude dude. I’m sorry that you got qq’d. Or you qq’d.

anyone asking for a random to join their group is bound to get a level of gameplay barely above hotjoin, VOIP or not. a sprinkle of elitism that actually doesnt cover the smell of fail.

serious PvP players get closed groups and practice for months the same comp. the guy the OP presented is anything but serious, just another noob except with funny hints of aspirations
