Guild Wars 2

Genev.2450:

You guys should really talk about what your public stance is, you have members contradict each other and themselves at every turn, and sometimes even inside posts.
Just take a minute, talk, and decide how everything actually fits together, you can do it.

How so? Jonwar said people transferred over early and the rest of the guild followed those were our forward scouts. He said they transferred to find a better gaming experience which is exactly what I said when I talked about the friendliness and community here at Fort Ranik. We didn’t contradict each other and even if we had not everyone in the guild had the same reasons for coming over but the majority of us wanted a welcoming community and and a better guild wars experience which we have found.

Like I said in my previous post Fort Ranik was a medium population server meaning it was free to transfer here. We sent guys ahead a week in advance to scout out the player base and how friendly the server was after our last server fell apart when we lost our night coverage. They weren’t looking at whether or not we would unbalance a silver league matchup we were looking for friendly folks and a good fit which we have found. We did make an educated decision based on the community not on how upset opposing servers would be at our presence.

We don’t fit in terms of the matchup but I couldn’t be happier with how we fit within the community here on Fort Ranik. I misspoke when I said the guild didn’t know about the coverage of EU servers I myself did not know not the entire guild. Zergbusting during the day when we can, objective play during the night, and a friendly welcoming community is what our scouts told us and its exactly what we have found.

@ Axelheim – Your entire post is a contradiction. You begin by saying your guild are hoping for some guild fights during the night time. Then you say you are aware we don’t have the night coverage to give you fights. So when faced with some resistance with the possibility of giving you a fight and making you work, you say it is wiser for you to ignore it so you can come back later and take it with no resistance. Would you make up your minds. You want a fight, or you want to PvD? iirc Cynz, your guild mate, started it with his little windup post about chilling in our T3 garri. If it wasn’t a post intended to provoke then I don’t know what is.

Just my opinion, but a guild of your size has no business in Silver League EU. If you want the fights as you claim, you would have stayed in NA or atleast moved to a Gold League server in EU. In the long run I don’t think Fort Ranik will benefit. When you guys are in a matchup with 2 of the stronger servers, they will inevitably target FR’s day and prime time to make up for what you guys do offpeak. If the work you do in offpeak gets you a win in Silver League, then I pity FR’s day/primetime crew for what will inevitable happen in Gold League. Personally I’m just looking forward to next weeks matchup, with some proper guild fights.

We do want fights our favorite part of WvW is Zergbusting (busbusting over here) we try to rally during EU prime so we can run around and wipe out zergs and get into big fights but it is tough for us to rally when the majority of our guild is still at work/school/ ect. and when we do manage to rally is isnt easy to get our entire crew into a map during that time without it queuing up. When we do manage to get a good rally into a BL we watch the map for orange swords and immediately head for the nearest fight while our EU counterparts on FR worry about taking points. But at nighttime when our server really needs to catch up we can’t be selfish and waste an hour on a T3 keep that’s well defended just so we can get some extra bags and get some kills.

I agree after seeing the server and situation we have no business being on a medium population EU server. We picked a random server we could transfer to for free because they were medium population we didn’t know what the coverage on EU servers would be like. We are here now for season 1 and its too late for us to move into a higher tier because we are locked into Fort Ranik’s end season rank. We are doing what we can to get a win and have some fun. We look for fights when its appropriate and help our server out when it needs us.

The thread started off with SE talking about how much fun they are having in this matchup being able to get into some zerg fights during primetime and hoping for bigger fights during the nighttime. And then players started trash talking us and all we did was defend ourselves much like anyone else would do. We know we do alot of PvD during the night time but its not our fault you guys dont have the coverage to give us fights. We would much rather have fights but when we run away from a T3 Garrison that is well defended by an outnumbered group it isnt because we dont want the fights it because our time is more valuable to the server by taking other points and getting our PPT up rather than spending an hour trying to take a keep that we will be able to flip later. We are doing our best to help out our server and get a matchup victory. If all we wanted to do was farm your towers we’d go to Frostgorge instead and make more money.
