Guild Wars 2

Congratulations to SOS – honestly there was a bit of chest thumping prior to your arrival in T1 which had a few players wondering….but you have proven to be a formidable foe in the past 48hours, both in terms of attack and defence; showing both strategy and coordination that have taken many of us by surprise.

I think that this is great! It makes the challenge more fun and if we have to revamp some of our own tactics to combat you so much the better.

I wouldnt discard either JQ or us(SBI) just yet, however, as them be early days.

As Cover Girl said, I’d be happy if you won as it only adds to the fun of the challenge of combating you.

RESPECT!

Sir this is GUILD wars, not leech off of other guilds b/c your guild is inactive. Also you can join multiple guilds, so why not just join WM?

(Read very little)

Out of curiosity, why would you post such a comment if you’ve little idea what you’re talking about? For your information, there is no leeching taking place – it is cooperative warmongering. Some of us here still retain traditional values like respect and honour, so I personally don’t join multiple guilds for the sake of it. However, as I’ve stated before I would be honoured to be part of WM; but alas I don’t understand Korean so I wouldn’t begin to know what they require, and I certainly dont have their skill in gaming. I’m just very happy to fight beside them and to learn all I can.

For the record, no only did WM post a response to this thread very quickly, but I also received a mail upon logging in earlier restating what they said here and sending me their love. Now not many people would do that, but a mail representing their guild…now that is worthy of honour and respect. Thank you all WM!

Jabtangs – thank you very much for your reply, and for making the situation clear to me; and please convey my thanks and regards to Jang Gun. I understand what happened now. I think that what ended up making me even more apprehensive was that after a short time there were only WM commanders in the Blackgate BL, about 5, so I figured that if I couldn’t follow WM then I should transfer to another BL, which is what I did.

I’m very grateful for clearing up any misunderstandings…I too thank you for all your efforts and support on SBI.

To some of the other commenters, I agree with what others have already said here…If you are wearing a commander’s icon then you should expect to be followed by anyone, regardless of what guild they are in; and if you dont want that, then turn off the icon.

I wouldn’t expect WM to put me in a squad in the first place, or to have me on their TS, though I would be honoured to be in their guild; but like they have kindly made clear through Jabtang’s post I should be able to follow any commander on the map regardless if Im in their squad/guild or not.

I like any communication from a commander, as I stated in the ‘who is the best commander’ post, this is possibly the most important virtue of a good commander.
WM communication just adds a layer of humour, which is great; and communication is all about understanding; and now I understand exactly what happened, and what was meant by what was said. Understand?

A number of other posters obviously did not understand what I said or what I meant, nor do I understand what you mean, like Webley??? Im all for perfect harmony, or at the very least trying to work together.

Ummm, just for the record I’m not transferring, nor ever alluded to doing so, regardless of the outcome of SBI, stomped or not. I take pride in my server, my guild and all the players who support WVW.

To WM I apologise for any confusion I’ve caused and I look forward to joining with you in battle yet again(as soon as work is over).

All I do in GW2 is play WVW – each to their own right? I die often and don’t get upset about it fortunately. In fact, I enjoy that too! I’ve commented on who I think is the best commander on SBI and mentioned the fact that I’ve run with WM.

Just before the last server reset I was moving across the map with Amarath of War and the two of us come across a couple of IOJ and I helped him mop them up – he did the mopping….and I’ve felt proud of watching/helping another guild work.

….New server matchups and I’ve gone to Blackgate BL second day cause they are stomping hard and found a group of WM in the first tower….how joyous I felt at the prospect of fighting with this guild again. Then, I get the message to the effect…..“If you are not in WM, follow another commander……”

I pause…in shock…but that will mean I’m no longer capable of achieving victory. My own guild rarely runs WVW anymore, who can I play with? You’ve now made me feel divided on my own server, where we should be playing together as guild alliances…isn’t this the whole point of the game? This is a moment I’ve dreaded….I just barely tolerate negativity in public chat and often have to respond to some idiotic comment…but now this?

The whole joy and experience of working as a team, even if I don’t speak the language and can’t communicate, hell I don’t mind when you leave me alone at a gate and I get ganked after you’ve fled and left all PUGS behind to be creamed for desert; but to create divides between guilds on the same server trying to accomplish the same aims, which when it all boils down to it is just to have fun.

I implore you War Machine not to do this….I might not be as good a gamer as you…but I’m equally devoted to the cause. I’ve died rezzing some of your commanders from a downed state, I’ve been part of your victories and defeat; as have countless other players not part of your guild.

If guilds on any server become exclusive entities, what hope for victory remains. Our world is our server and every guild, PUG on it, so I implore you to work together with everyone and I hope I never see such a message again….

A nordic necro devoted to the idea of fun and carnage for everyone.

On SBI I believe Zaff is the best commander for the following reasons:

he leads by example – first into battle, and will not run to save his skin like a lot of other commanders.
He is also a good fighter and often survives solo until the group can catch up to him.

He communicates with pugs so you know what he intends and can therefore follow him. This is very important, and while I believe that war machine is the most polished wvw guild I run with, it is the lack of communication from commanders to pugs that limits their overall effectiveness – with notable exceptions such as Jang Gun(hope I remembered name correctly)!

If you read this Dance With Wolf pls keep up communication channels as they are greatly appreciated.

Zaff will also ensure that any tower/keep he takes is adequately fortified before moving on and will go out and escort Yaks to ensure supply.

Few commanders I have fought beside possess all of these qualities. Respect from a nord necro in another guild!
