Great generalized post that is repeated billion times before.

Do you enjoy trolling? Or did I just offend you?

Why would I be offended? Or is this the automated template response of what you use every time someone responds to you with sarcasm? It seems that you are more offended for slandering me as a troll for my simple response.

What part of what I said is trolling? Your statement is the exact template of what I stated and is absolutely correct; however, it’s as I’ve stated, a template. People has been calling out to “other individuals” on “other servers” to fight regardless of score or disadvantageous situations since the beginning of WvW. The idea is noble; being repetitive about it, however, is far from inspiring.

Issue persists.

I understand this is a low priority bug, but at the same time I do believe the nature of this error can be fixed quite easily as well.

Wotah.2975:

Calm down man, I mentioned in a balanced match. That would mean you would be in the 200’s too. But that guys is saying that JQ doesn’t need anymore people in that time period using the argument that they barely hit +300. It’s just funny to me for some reason. I know, boggle, right?

I am drinking some very fine tea and any more calm would require anesthetics, so no thank you.

JQ 200
SoS 300
BG 100

Does JQ still need to recruit more in this scenario? Whether this is true or not I can’t say (I don’t play that time zone), but maybe that’s what the person you’re quoting is thinking.

Kreen.3925:

Cut him some slack Wotah. That guy is Tsym. You should know by now that those folks just can’t count.

Your posts over at guru are far more intellectual, don’t resort to ad hominem please.

Wotah.2975:

Mmmm. This is just so funny because, well in a balanced match everyone will be in the 200’s. If you’re lucky to get 300, we need to recruit more to make sure you don’t hit that again.

Or maybe BG needs to recruit more, or are we just completely ignoring them now?

Nuked.2360:

Being in Tier 1 since the beginning show’s resolve. It’s not meaning we don’t fight for first. And we did end up in Tier 2 for one week. That was the first week of weeklong matches I believe. We proved then we had the staying power for Tier 1 as we not only destroyed CD and Db at the time but we also propelled ourselves into Tier 1 and took second and then took first.

So you think it’s better for BG to fight for first place, get kicked out of T1 in less than a month (this will be second time), and then recruit people like that? They’re at a overwhelmingly disadvantage in terms of coverage right now. Honestly, in the long run, I think it’s better for the server to fight strategically one week (or weeks even) than bite off more than you can chew.

To be fair, when SBI was around, you guys accuse of each other for fighting second almost weekly, when none of you were. Fact of the matter is nobody could prove anything even if you are fighting first or not. The only thingy you get out of fighting for first place when you lack coverage is getting kicked down and then complain people don’t transfer to your server. Because let’s face it, guilds from other servers don’t constantly keep track of something you cannot prove, having staying power is better ammunition for your rep sheet than being labeled as forever beta.

jojojoon.8607:

I’m not sure if you even believe what you are typing. Are you trying to tell BG to play for second? You do know that any server that plays for second place WILL NEVER win 1st place right?

What’s wrong with playing for second when your server’s recruiting? If you show you have staying power it helps the recruiting process. Playing for second for one week is fine, nobody’s telling BG to play for second forever.

In fact, isn’t that one of the things that JQ’s proud of? Being in T1 since the beginning?

sostronk.8167:

I play 5-6 hours a work night and 18+ hours a weekend night. It may be because of my Oceanic timezone, but they are Korean apparently so I wouldn’t imagine their coverage time is much different and should overlap, but Im surprised that I haven’t seen a single one of them in game yet… apart from when we were having blackouts and they were asking us all to log off.

What BL? I see them plenty in SoS BL and I play 10 hours a week max.

erza.2537:

Every single time. They both seem to have too many glass canons who simply can not take it. In very small encounters this seems to be flipped to their advantage.

That’s kinda what we said about you guys on SoS BL over the weekend. You guys … kinda just go “have our badges” and roll over whenever we see you, but I’m sure anecdotal experiences are the most accurate and meaningful

erza.2537:

I’m honestly little disappointed by the politics of T1. Double teaming recessed a lot once SoS got significant point advantage. Just so they now can pretend it never happened lol. And yes i do stand by my statements and yes it did happen.

You guys really gotta let this go.

Try earning more gold and hire JQ so you can 2v1 us instead. Words of warning though, JQs aren’t cheap and any rates at lower than 10g/hour is just downright insulting to them. SoS’s just way too poor, we could only afford them on the weekends

DivineBeing.2086:

There is a line between smack talk and straight up just being hostile. That video was for fun. The comments here are meant to hurt rather than just be fun.

Also, so I take it NONE of your sports team have cheerleaders that rally the audience? You ever been to the locker rooms before the game starts? They talk about “crushing” the opponents. You can state what you want but everyone does a bit of friendly smack talk over athletic events.

Ooooh I see what you’re saying now, HB are the cheerleaders that sit on the side line and can only smack talk! Everything makes sense now! Though I actually thought they’re ok! You’re just being rude Divine!

DivineBeing.2086:

This. I am not sure why some people are so kitten over that video? They act as if we attacked their egos. I am guessing the people who are kitten have NEVER been to an athletic event in their lives? Cause people talk FRIENDLY smack talk between teams all the time.

Ex. Yea! I am taking you down. No! I am taking you down!

One comes out victorous but gives the other a pat on the back.

Good lord guys….

People are just using the same language they send to SoS and JQ in the video to respond back. If they get buttdevastated by “mere smack talk” when people talk back then I don’t know what to say.

Just FYI, my university’s sports team don’t go in the competition telling people they’re insects we’re going to step on as real winners don’t need smack talk. We show up and we know we dominate. Similarly, how often do you see PRX and WM make videos to show they’re winners? Do not generalize “smack talk” to be universal for all athletes, I find that offensive. Smack talk is a sign of the uneducated and less than classy bunch.

marquees.6230:

Okay, I’ll admit. I giggled at that, Kunagisa. But HB are a good group.

Of course, I got killed by them no less than few dozen times at BG borders, but that video was quite humorous as well (given the present situation). I’m sure they’re pretty good sport people and won’t be offended (afterall, you have to be pretty thick-skinned to make that video).

HB did warn us about the incoming onslaught of BG.

In 2013
We are back in the Tier of Tears
This time we are more prepared
More hydrated
And now covering 2 oceans
You may have sausages
You may have cried longer
You may think all those onions will matter
We are here to tell you:
We will keep crying at you
We will not back down
We will take the QQing to another level
And show you the amount of tears you didn’t think possible
No laughter
No surrender
One goal
To make Blackgate the #1 T___T
Dear SoS and JQ
We are HB
And you will be nothing but droplets of water
In our ocean of tears
Don’t say we didn’t warn you
Starting on the 11th of January
Tier 1 will never be dry again

Hi guys, this is the evidence of SoS and JQ teaming up against BG in EB

/sarcasm

hex.3218:

I see a lot of poster who do very little in WvW making a LOT of noise.

Are you new? Welcome to the forums, enjoy your stay.

hex.3218:

Tsym rules SoS. The other groups, just make sure you have close to equal and you’ll win easy.

Just like how PRX ruled SoS when they were around right?

People like you show less class than the chest-thumpers/forum warriors. You seek ways to fracture the other servers’ unity. Good thing SoS has a great community that cares more about the server more than individual guild fame.

I have no problem with you praising or belittling individual guilds’ performances, but to judge them in a way with main intention to stir up drama is extremely rude and disgusting (because that’s exact what you are trying to do, there’s no reason why you phrased your statement that way otherwise).

Magiofdeath.2745:

I don’t see SBI making excuses as to why they got moved down to tier 2, so why do we (JQ) and SoS do that on a non first place victory?

Yes they do, you’re just not looking at the right parts.

Magiofdeath.2745:

I actually did expect better from SoS since its only one loss, but well, look at my first impression of the players on that server anyways, opportunists/jp campers for no reason.

This is moot point because like you said this happens with every single server. Hell, JQ owns the JP most of the week.

crewthief.8649:

And LOL, so you gave your people ‘permission’ to miss WvW the week we won. That explains everything…LMAO. Perhaps you should reread your post and take your own advice. And serious LOLZ with regard to the fact that your Guild members have to ‘request leave’ in order to be away from the game. Wow dude…just…wow.

“Request to leave” is probably a simple statement they have to make, not 40+ pages thesis paper/portfolio review. How disorganized in real life do you have to be that you can’t even submit something that takes less than a minute to fill out. I’d imagine for a guild as big as his you need at least a sort of organization structure (with rules/logarithms being the most elementary) else the logistics would just be absolute nightmare when you wish to get anything done.

Anyone with any experience managing anything at multi-level would understand this Even if not the thought process should be apparent, I do not understand why you would find his statement humorous, let alone trying to ridicule it.

I very, very highly doubt someone with a dysfunctional real life could manage a giant guild (that lasts); furthermore, I tend to find these guild leaders tend to attract people with similar personality (ex: the people who would “play by his rules” to quote you), whom, unfortunately, also tend to be ridiculed by others for being “hardcore” in a “just a video game.” When in fact, these people are contributing members to the society with healthy lifestyle who find great enjoyment of video games as a hobby.

Of course, there are other “big guilds”, who tend to just recruit everyone (even mouth breathers) that can never accomplish anything, which MERC clearly is not one of those.

PS: Using LOL, LOLZ, and LMAO excessively does make you seem a little bit (if not extremely) like a clown.

Magiofdeath.2745:

SoS posters could of been more mature and just ignored that post instead of going on how SBI and JQ should just quit.

The hypocrisy is strong with this one. Next time, it helps if you take your own advices before giving them out. Calling out all of SoS’s posters base on few selective attended posts is always a silly thing to do. But you know that already, I’m sure.

Also, JQ is dominating right now.

kidbs.8920:

Unfortunately or maybe fortunately it’s looking like SBI will be heading back to T2 soon. We’ve lost a lot of good commanders and long-time WvWers.

I personally think we need to drop back and regroup and rebuild.

Nooooooo, don’t leave us with JQ. JQ smells bad.

Jedbacca.6297:

@JQ/SBI hate for each other, yeah…that probably will never go away… Our servers have been fighting one another since day 1 with a 1 week break from both servers a piece from T1.

I don’t know man. I think you two have very strong homosexual tensions toward each other (just like SoS and SoR).

You know what they say! Hate and love are not mutually exclusive. Sometimes I feel like SoS is just a huge lightbulb going between the bromance of your servers =/.

Aieo.2815:

I don’t think these headstrong group of people will admit their imprudence of mesmer sweeping until an official statement is made by Deuce of Atac.

That would help immensely, or at least some details regarding where he hid over the duration of the 2 hours and cross reference with how he dodged JQ’s constant 2 hours sweep (given JemL’s informant to be reliable). Truth to be told, it sounds pretty ridiculous that you hid that long under constant surveillance (unless of course, it’s not constant).

Mirage.8345:

JQ at this point is pretty much like “whelp, screw it.” What’s the point of putting in Tiered / ranked WvW and then allowing stuff like this to be available?

I find it a bit dramatic that a tier 1 server gets demoralized this easily.

I’d advise you to remove your link because I’m pretty sure a mod will come and do it for you if not.

JemL.3501:

like always, JQ and SBI playing fair, but the third -insert server- has to bring the hack strategies

Innocent until proven guilty. I personally do not trust either side unless there are concrete evidence. Also generalizing one person (or guild)’s behavior to an entire realm is quite irrational. Less presumptuous slandering and more slaughtering.

See you all on the battlefield (queue’s taking bloody forever).

Why ANET why? This is highly disappointing. I kittening hated gear progression in other MMOs and now you introduce this pos.

Marcus,

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Bugged-World-Bonuses/first

ANet hasn’t gotten around to address the issue still

I’m not receiving bonus as well.

I would like to know about this as well. More specifically, is there anything this year that’s “this year only” as in I can’t finish it next year?
