The guild tag may be the same but the name of the guild must be different.

How many here are playing less? And why?

raises hand .. since fractals it’s all gone to hell..

1. Loot drops are non-existent & there is no sense of reward for time spent.

2. Lag & skills not firing in wvwvw is killing even my enthusiasm for that.

3. LA is now just a fractals lobby & I hate dungeons..

4. GW2 was sold to me as ‘no grind’. Now even if I do grind there is no reward.

No gem shop, no money, since they nerfed drop rates across the board apart from FotM.

Hard to make any progress at the moment when you can’t afford even the next tier of lowbie armour because the drop rate is now pretty much non-existent..

Yep. Log in a low level alt , think about it & log out. No point playing for no reward.

My 2nd lvl 80 is still in the same armour as when she hit 80. Because drops are so bad.

Again, log out..

It’s part of any RPG earning rewards.

In wvw having a yellow star by your name that shows through walls (especially for stealth classes) is not a good thing…

Great start to the week. Don’t think I’ve seen the lead change so often as over the first day or so. Kudos to Kodash for pulling away in the lead.

Was expecting Piken to pull back with our ‘traditional’ weekday strength, but we seem a bit thin on the ground this week..

Speaking of which: Early hours of Monday morning killed a Kodash player just north of Speldan in a 10v10 ish and his Guild tag was (VII)…

Please tell me we don’t have another *Rene*G*ade guild fighting against us..

I started a new Ele. she is lvl 10.

Even though she has had 10s from the account bank, she now has only 4c to her name after buying the cheapest armour upgrades.

This may be my 10th char (after few deletions) .. it was never like this…

I not long ago made my 2nd lvl 80.

My 1st had all exotics in a day or two and could buy siege.

My 2nd is still scraping around to get a full set despite having spent badges & karma for a few, at least, ‘reasonable’ items.

All my bags have a grey lining…

Overflow servers in Lion's Arch

LA is now just a lobby for fotm grouping. Which is why the overflow all the time.

I still remember when there were conversations in chat..

Wouldn’t be so bad if there was a separate LFG channel that everyone else could switch off.

No mention here that RG left Piken for the current #1 EU server BT where they apparently impress with their stacked vulnerability/confusion/retaliation zerging if not their manners.. cough

Sorry to here GH lost guilds to us but I’m sure lack of RG made a bigger difference.

It’s still too short.

we had a guild leave our server after fighting with us that week. fight against us AND then rejoin in the same week to fight with us again. just no

Since lack of orbs and more people learning to play it’s getting harder to find a fast capturing zerg.

So d/l’ed TS3 and when I joined the channel the only person there left immediately.

No help to you there, but I’m curious too.. is it only guilds use TS/mumble?

To clear up the RG stuff:

The week before we went 7-day transfers RG started the week with us, switched to fight against us while we were ahead.

When we continued to hold the lead (with them against us..) they rejoined before the end of the week and started their “leave the server so WE (RG) can fight..” stuff.

Not well received by the Piken community.

They left at the end of that week.

Each week your server will start at a different location owning (initially) different keeps etc.

Try each week and you should find yourself with access to at least some of the points you need.

Good luck

This usually happens when I get caught in a pinch and hit my healing skill. The UI will show that I’ve pressed it (skill darkens and lights up again), but nothing actually happens. I could press it 10-15 more times and still no response. I will then get mauled. There is no evidence of universal lag (I can still see other players using their skills and moving around with no stuttering or backtrailing) as it’s happening.

exactly

thank you for ‘vocalising’ it so well
