I have heard rumors that WARD has merged with TWL. Can anyone confirm this?
Ty.
Hello, I am still waiting for confirmation. Thank you.
Does that make TWARD now TWARDL? And what happened to WARDACO?
Bla bla bla, my made up facts are better than your made up facts – Here’s something i made up to prove it
Fact: You get stomped, BG get points = you get loose on the field, and you get loose in the match.
Fact: This guy doesn’t know how to spell lose
Fact: This guy doesn’t get loose.
Fact: That’s not a guy!
No not at the moment, I do reserve the right to change my mind later though. 
Tarkus come to the dark side with us! Everyone knows Asura are the master race!
You’re a funny guy, I’ll banish you off a cliff last
So mean
![]()
Plus Side: Asura are the most well endowed race!
Negative: You may spend a bit getting ghost tonics so your guild can see you….
Or if you’re trying to fire an AC (or probably put in any siege piece) and a big Norn McFatty steps in front of you.
I love these statements as fact that can’t be verified by any source.
I’m the best Engi NA BTW.
No sir, I can indeed say you are wrong here since I am best Engi NA.
^^ This guy gets it :-)
We in JQ have best OpenFieldTrebShooterNA, Best2ndthiefNA, BesthideawayMesmerNA, and oh by the way put a # in front of all of that for the tweeter feeds! But…but…prove I’m wrong!
Who kitten ed in your cereal this morning?
I ll be honest with you, no matter the amount of psychological projection nobody likes JQ…nobody. This dates back from when JQ used to constantly block the Jumping Puzzle back in the days with 10 vs 1 at the entrance. This attracted a lot of people to JQ, people who enjoyed this type of behavior but were not that good in wvw.
From then on they made enemies from acting like kittenbags. Nothing has changed yet and the only thing JQ has left is paying guilds to come to their server so they can say they are T1 material…but they are not and their reputation still follows them.
For a long time JQ had relied on SoR but that changed some time ago when SoR decided to not carry JQ anymore. There is a reason JQ never ever gets the number 1 spot and it should be pretty clear by now.
JQ does not belong in T1…it never did and JQ will always a bad reputation unfortunately
I am guessing he died in the jumping puzzle to some JQ and he hasn’t gotten over it.
Lol! JQ is like the most bipolar server. One minute they’re double-teaming SoR with BG, next minute they’re double-teaming BG with SoR.
That’s not the problem with JQ. The problem is that BG is a bit “weird” when it comes to tactics.
Example 1
SoR tries to take an upgraded JQ bay. BG has at least two good options.
- take an unguarded upgraded SoR hills
- take an unguarded upgraded JQ spawn tower.
BG runs to JQ bay to watch the fight or get wiped there or get some bags or whatever.Example 2
JQ attacks SoR garrison, SoR comes to defend.
BG attacks JQ spawn tower and camp instead taking their bay back or.. getting NW tower.Sure, you can play it that way, but it makes absolutely no sense. And many of the situations when JQ decides to go for BG are because BG just did something stupid before, like taking JQ spawn camp with their whole zerg, while JQ is pushing SoR garrison or such things.
I don’t know how many times a night I hear, “Well BG just did something stupid. What do you want to do now?” Everyone in unison – “Kill BG make them pay.” I’ve stated this before, but apparently no one reads my comments. Actually, I am OK with this.
I have said the same about JQ. I took your Borderland the last time i lead and pushed JQ out. I took all your crap except for the north.
So when Iron rushed your Garrison i had 2 choises. Dig in and hold or go north and take your towers knowing full well that Iron most likely would float to some where else soon. Giving me a clear shot at taking a now paper Garrison.
Instead i went with option “There is a fight over there let’s go join it because that could be fun” and we had fun. Not the smart thing to do, but instead i had a TS channel full of people laughing and joking around about how stupid the fight was getting.
The thing is JQ dose stupid crap all the time that is not in there best interests and during EU they have SoR to guard them because JQ is not that important of a target in comparison. You get a free pass because of your place in the fight.
Several times i would have love to have crushed JQ and there puny force that provoked me by hitting my towers, but i have to deal with the far larger and far more dangerous SoR.
It’s amazing how JQ begins chest thumping as soon as they are back in the game. When JQ was practically ‘dead’, SoR and BG just ignored them, so I guess they are craving attention.
Hmmm, your definition and my definition of “chest thumping” are miles apart.
Someone asked why JQ hits BG instead of SoR. Gebrechen answered, I backed him up.

Wait so you’re talking about our borderland with a heavy IRON population on it? Let’s see here a second…. Hmm… What could our 15-20 on commander hit at that time… oh yeah BG and hope for the best. I mean are you honestly trying to compare what we’re saying to you taking stuff in our own BL? Why the hell would we not attack you over SoR at that point? Again this is stuff that doesn’t make sense.

It was great seeing TW/TWL, WARDACO, GSCH, and friends group up for BGBL last night! We had some great fights, keep it up guys!
So, after taking a few camps this morning I went to solo north camp. There i ran into a persistant power necro who crit like a truck, me being on my thief I ran around a bit into the open for better fighting terrain and after downing in my shadow refuge and reviving myself before the necro saw me, I drained all his life force and me being at 25% HP and the necro being at about the same I panicked and hit my #2 on my keyboard 3 times and it ended with the necro dieing. I’d just like to apologize to whoever this was and I do actually feel bad about it.
I was fighting a thief with my warrior and a guildie on their thief. That thief was spamming 2 so much that I was able to evade two Heartseekers with one dodge roll. He still downed me but I downed him with leet rock tossing and my guildie spiked him. Was a fun fight, surprised he didn’t turn and book when my friend unstealthed.
Lies! You have no friends!
I dont know why any of u r feeding titan the dude is nothing but a troll. Titan is the same dude who on thes forums wanted the death of the JQ server, he has said it many times.
And if anyone from TW asked for gold for that week they transfered to JQ, they were trolling you. Did you give them gold ?? no you didnt. DID you have fun with TW on your server? yes you did all you gotta do is read the thread, and you would clearly see JQ saying they wished TW stayed and how much of a blast they had.
Now about the PPT bs, there is dif strokes for different folks. I have never cared about PPt always like the battles, if that ment i had to break into towers keeps for them then i did it.
Btw wvw is stilla coverage game. When sor was winning we had the best coverage, same for BG and JQ. Only way to win facing more coverage is use the third server for a 2v1, this weeks its against SOR and who cares its wvw kitten happens.
I respect Both BG and JQ servers greatly and many of the guilds, some ppl from there servers less so. I really dislike PPl who want nothing more then to see servers IMplode and fall apart. I also hate it when ppl spread BS about someone from other servers hacking accounts
^—- This is awesome! I commend you, sir.
Hey JQ. You guys complete me.
I wish I knew how to quit you!
Dear Blackgate:
Your constant posts about 2v1s and being focused led me to put on my Encyclopedia Brown hat and do a little sleuthing. After an exhaustive investigation entailing a vast network of shifty informants, tens of thousands of man hours, and, naturally, some wanton and gratuitous abuse of controlled substances, here are the results:
- We show up, ready to roll and make some tasty, tasty SoR bags by forcing a 2v1 on them
- The first couple moves go splendidly, but you just can’t seem to keep your grubby hands off our marbles, can you?
- Go to wipe your latest kittenjam attempt and realize that SoR has tagged along for the ride
- The 2v1 has now switched to you and, although your bags aren’t as tasty, we stick it out because, y’know, we’re already over here and stuff
- Lather, rinse, repeat many many times
- Y’know what, sod it: Let’s just focus BG from the get-go tonight
Mystery solved. I hope my humble efforts help the seeming majority of your posters sleep easier tonight.
You’re welcome;
JQ
^—- This, so many times this. I said it earlier in this thread it might have been drowned out by people blaming IRON for something though.
Hopefully BG can pull itself out of this slump. Not sure what is up with that server but it’s obvious they need to fix something. Consistency is an important aspect of WvW.
To go from 1st place straight to 3rd is unheard of.
Are you sure you don’t know? I mean your server is, after all, double teaming us.
On another note, SoR, you guys are skillful as always, but JQ, I think tier 2 has made you soft. A fully seiged up tower with more numbers than us, and we still took it with just losing 1 person.
Did the one person fall out of the tower to his death?
I remember feeling exactly like that on JQ as well to be honest. I’m not claiming that BG and SoR were double-teaming us in the past, but there were times it certainly felt like it. Odds are it’s more an internal thing however… numbers lower from a little burnout, seeing the same servers over and over again can take a little of the bounce out of your step. It seems to happen to every server that sits on top for awhile. Soon enough, if the trend continues, you’ll drop down to a more pure tier 2 type match for a week or two (not seeing either SoR or JQ) and one of two things will happen… BG will either begin to fade into mediocrity as many servers have, with guilds jumping ship and people losing interest, or the change of pace will rejuvenate the WvW crowd and things will turn right around again. So expect a month or so of growing frustrations and an overall sense of ennui, but the fate of BG will depend on whether the community pulls itself back up with a fresh restart or fades away to the lower tiers.
Hang in there kid, you can do this.
This is a good post, I hope that you guys can pull through your internal issues and remain in T1 BG. I have to admit though, a selfish part of me would love to see Merc return to SoS with AGG and raise SoS back to its former glory. Good luck with your issues BG!
So you want TSYM, Work, DiE, FoE, et al to go back as well?
…ennui…
Quit making me look up words I don’t know. I have to look up words, I do know, too much already!
I am super confused why there is so much IRON bashing this week in the forums.
I think it is because they may have killed someone in a WvW zone, but I am not sure.
AoE and buffs hit 5, then make rally 5.
If you play for JQ or SOR feel free to go ahead and do it because I had a few golems suicided tonight to JQs zerg. In all seriousness though, it did happen and it was my gold that got burnt and I don’t think its very cool that anyone would troll this way. Decent players build good things, bads burn things down. Such is life.
Sos you were on our server you know we have a guy that does that too.
Wouldn’t surprise me if you knew these guys, being from the same server and all. Your credibility is 0.
Doubt it. The Population difference between JQ and EB is insane. Without having played on a T1 I’m not sure people can understand how much it blows.
Wotah, I still hate you and your DOK.
Haha! Don’t worry Gavi lets me know every dang day! 
This is quite clearly the server-wide quickness that comes after huge, laggy fights. I mean, just look at how abnormally fast the revive is, in the beginning of the video.
There you go three people that think the same thing. BOOM!
Sometimes when randoms build them yeah we have the urge to walk them off a cliff ^^
Why would random person’s golems be different then the others?
Just a guess, but I believe he’s alluding to the fact that someone throws something down people build it. A golem is 100 supply. The commanders have to keep note of how much supply is around them to know what they can pull off. If someone randomly throws down a golem that’s supply you might have to go get somewhere else and needlessly holding off what you were trying to attempt.
Again, this is just a guess.
Let’s see you’re fighting 3 (Ranger, Warrior, Guardian), 4th (Mesmer) jumped in late. You died, and you’re crying foul? O_o
Could the Ranger have used Quickening Zephyr?
And the insta stomp thing wasn’t so instant, I would have to say that was a lag spike. Or maybe perhaps something they’ve done with the code on what effects you’re seeing.
Ahahahaha are you serious? Did you see the Guardian autoattacking with staff at the end?
Wouldn’t surprise me if you knew these guys, being from the same server and all. Your credibility is 0.
It’s a half second cast with no cooldown.
You, being from Ehmry Bay may not know of borderland lag. It’s the thing the borderland (server) does when it tries to catch up from large fights usually from a Garrison fight where all three servers are fighting over it. Thing is we can’t tell, there is no mini-map.
Personally I thought it all looked sped up, even his tasks and especially the resurrecting. I thought the OP sped it up a little in order to make his point.
I don’t know the people, I do know they are from SEA timeframe (likely), and I play NA.

Oh man, and I just made my Kamohoali’i Kotaki. 
Shout out to JQ. Nice to see you guys coming out in complete full force this week. I must admit, I thought that server was going to be a deserted wasteland.
“Don’t call it a comeback
I been here for years
Rockin my peers and puttin suckas in fear
Makin the tears rain down like a MON-soon
Listen to the bass go BOOM
Explosion, overpowerin
Over the competition, I’m towerin
Wreckin shop, when I drop these lyrics that’ll make you call the cops
Don’t you dare stare, you betta move
Don’t ever compare
Me to the rest that’ll all get sliced and diced
Competition’s payin the price”
i wonder if the guild MERC is going to desert Blackgate the same way they deserted Sea of Sorrows when their server started to struggle a little bit in WvW
Nice try, but Blackgate has been in worse state than this. MERC has become part of the core members of the Blackgate community and leadership.
Don’t get excited.
Lol do you remember Jedah’s posts?
I do!
But isn’t he still on vacation from the game?
Thanks for the fun fights in EB tonight from [SG]!
We legitimately tried to 2v1 SoR when we got on the map, but after growing tired of RISE and ESOL trying to play in our backfield, we just decided to kick BG off the map for four hours.
It kind of went like this:
Push SoR to attack all their T3 structures.
Oh nice, BG takes Speldan, oh no Anz, nope now Mendon’s.
Mance: “So now what do you want to do?”
Everyone else: “Stomp BG, make them pay for their transgressions before us.”
Mance: “So it shall be. Praise Jedsus!”
Blackgate 79,549 +190
Sanctum of Rall 81,222 +345
Jade Quarry 90,201 +160
ALRIGHT GUYS
I’m back from TI3. #gamechanger coming back, WATCH OUT SOR AND BG.
Lets do it Wilco! #GameChanger #[SG] #It’s Ight
That Mance? He’s Ight…
There should be an emote that states, “Don’t kill me I am just trying to gather these things for daily”, or “..I am just trying to kill these chickens for daily”.
Anet work on this!
There is one like that.
/cower
It was tongue-in-cheek, but good to know. 
It should be seen something like: Pointing, waving hands frantically around, then feint.

We have champ bags now they are much better. I have not really noticed a loot diff otherwise, but It would make sense with the addition. Also a good step to put a damper on kill trading.
Great so it promotes tower/keep flipping instead.
Hey guys let’s not defend that, we’ll just get it back for the lewtz!
I would love to see this implemented! This will help so many things when people aren’t used to seeing multiple pins on a map.
JQ will likely be in T2/3 for several weeks. If they dropped out of T1, there’s a reason.
There really is no tiers, but there is still a rating.
You do realize this is a video game right?
I like when people like you post and act like the “raging” is only coming from the other servers.
I like when people like you post without reading the full message.
Apparently, culling is still a thing on JQ’s side. We must inform anet about this issue.
Give yourselves a break, you don’t zerg that much to create culling on our side.
It’s more about 2 thieves attempting to gank something, but being so bad they can’t finish the job. Then when it isn’t a 2v1 anymore they run.
Pretty typical mentality on JQ. If you want to see more of these baddies in action, just log in to any BL and look for a JQ tag.
I think you’re trying too hard now. It’s degrading the quality of your trolling and removing the natural feeling it once had. This forced-effort trolling really should be beneath you.
You have disappointed me and shall not receive the Volkon Seal of Approval until you clean your act up.
Funny thing is I wasn’t trying hard. I wasn’t even running food or nourishment.
You’re confusing reality with trolling which speaks volumes about your intelligence.
Neither did those guys. But you did have 25 stacks on you, that they did not.
You were on a cliff above us. We moved into the camp to drop north so you didnt drop on us if we went along the cliff up the ramp. We were in the camp for about 10 seconds. You’re being silly if you don’t see why we went through the camp to get north where there was open field instead of walking below you with a cliff between us.
Unfortunately Wilco wasn’t streaming last night. And I don’t believe any of the rest of us record. I know exactly why you went into the camp, which is another reason we pulled North. Then when we went at you from the road you still pulled into camp. That’s when the /laugh’s happened. Then we pulled North again and you finally came out. After a good fight that lasted a fairly decent amount of time you won, congratulations.
JQ group that pulled us to wolves on Mag BL – you should try to not spam laugh, it can be embarrassing when you get wiped 1 minute later.
I’ll respond to this since Wilco is being nice. There were precisely two /laughs and that was because we had what appeared to be equal numbers. You wouldn’t pull out of a just flipped NE supply camp or the entrance to it.
I still believe numbers were the same, and we had around 15 of us with pickups all around. It looked to be about two guilds of you plus some PuGs. Numbers looked very even from my stand point.
We did wipe, but it was a glorious battle away from a choke point that you had defended.
Seems no better a place than this to look for more WvW guildies! Otherwise there would be only enough messages as there were servers.
We accept cookies as bribes. =)
Remember JQ, the outcome of this match is decided by you.
My mother-in-law makes the best cookies. Chocolate chip and a variety of traditional Hungarian goodies. Where do I send?
Send the cookies to me but keep you mum in law
Gladly. She’s one of those mother-in-laws you’d actually want!
Hmmm, do tell!
Kudos to JQ leaders for making everyone come to DBBL wipe after wipe after wipe…I stopped counting after we wiped you 25th time at hills
You’re welcome! 
For full communication make sure that you have your guild members join us on jadequarry.com where we discuss all manner of different things that pertain to WvW/Class Build/etc.

JQ official Prime Minister”As Lord High Chairman Dictator of Db I think the position of official Prime Minister of JQ is very entertaining.
Nice to meet Lord High Chairman Dictator of Db. Please do visit our great nation of Jade Quarry as the royal Quaggan , His Higness, would like to discuss the Sale of Yaks to your good selves.
Ways of the royalty. Hope no royal baby comes out of this union
Considering the way babies come from royalty in history, if it happens it will likely be some peons baby anyway.
Now, I’m not saying anything, but, couple hours ago on EB map =
FA Side – all green, DB Side – untouched.Maybe we’re jut bad at defending our towers.
Might have something more to do with opportunity. Unfortunately weaker target is great for opportunistic commanders.
Sometimes WvW is you getting 2v1’d, sometimes it is you getting 1v2’d.
