Guild Wars 2

There should be a way to accept or decline a friend invitation. Either that or they only add that character to your friends’ list rather than your entire account.

Frankly I see this as a breach of privacy and should be considered a serious bug/issue. Can you imagine this in every single MMO?

I retreat to another character to get away from other people in other MMOs, and it works. This friend system on the other hand does no such thing, and I prefer to have my own peace and quiet when the option is available.

Thankfully I only have my brother on my friends’ list, otherwise I would be inundated with spam, chatter, invites or anything else.

And as the OP said, if you’re female, you get unwanted attention, I’ve played enough MMOs and for long enough to know that most women that play them want their privacy, and in most MMOs they get it. But not here it seems.

If a character name is already taken it’ll say so when you sign the form at the name screen.

As an example, i have a warrior called Skarik Bearheart, now if i tried to make another character by that name, it’ll show that “A character with that name already exists, please choose another”.

It wouldn’t remove me from the game or disconnect me, it would just come up with that error.

This error, along with the disconnection, is basically showing that either your game is corrupted and will disconnect you regardless of what you name it, or it’s a server-side issue.

So your options are; Reinstall the game completely, or wait for an official response from an ArenaNet moderator.

Comfort is a big thing for me, if i play for more than 2 hours without a break, my ears start to sting, even up to 15 minutes after removing them.

In turn i bought a new headset which had softer ear cushions, and the problem went away. The headset i bought was a Sennheiser headset, it cost me £64.99. Which is about $100.

Of course i bought it from another company who sold them.

The headset in question is; http://www.sennheiser.co.uk/uk/home_en.nsf/root/private_headsets_gaming_pc_504121

It’s more of a gaming headset than a general use headset, and i’m not sure how much it would cost to buy it directly from Sennheiser.

Instead of switching the priority on the F Key to Rallying > Other > Loot.

Maybe they should all be seperately bindable, therefore making it a lot easier on what to do before/after rallying or looting.

That way you’ll have to choose, rally your ally and help everyone else, or loot whatever is on the ground and help yourself. That way it’ll make it more of a moral decision than a forced decision.

Just my two pence

Thanks Prepin, as far as i’m concerned this is a good answer. I’ve already gotten cooking, and i have plenty of unused gems in my bank.

Okay, so I’ve started a new Norn Warrior, going good so far.

But now that i’m level 7, I need to start focusing on a Crafting Skill with which to make my mark on the global economy, though I’m stuck with which to choose.

I know the obvious ones are Armorsmithing & Weaponsmithing, but which is more beneficial to me as a Warrior, and which best serves everyone else via the market?

Also, which would be a good secondary Crafting Skill? Granted it can’t be one which uses the same basic materials as Armorsmithing & Weaponsmithing. Though I’m not sure which one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
