It is incredible how all that talk gets mixed up in the official class forums between PvE, PvP and WvW. The result is complete bullkitten talk. I just read a ranger thread where people were seriously arguing ranger longbow should out DPS all other weapons including GS and Sword. I don’t care what people get for their pve mob shooting “who comes closest to warrior dps” fest but if this idiocy influences pvp balance decision this would be really bad for the game.

If you split balancing between PvP/WvW/PvE (which is 100% the right thing to do) you also have to split the forums where people discuss this balance. This is one huge confusing Tower of Babel right now.
