"Excessive Messaging" cutoff is ridiculous

If I was copy and pasting, I’d understand it better, but I was intentionally varying the message a little in each mail to try and not get suppressed. Grr.

"Excessive Messaging" cutoff is ridiculous

I ran a small Halloween contest for my guild this month. This morning I judged the entries and set about mailing the prizes to the winners. After sending out TWO main prizes and getting a ‘not found’ message for the third, the mails I try and send out are ‘suppressed due to excessive messaging’. At this rate, getting the four main category prizes and the half-dozen or so participation prizes sent out to my guildmates is going to take forever.

Why is it I can’t send off more than two successful mails without getting hit with suppression while during the trial gold spammers could stand in LA and spam their gold-selling ads for hours under the same name, sometimes several times a minute, without being suppressed?

Lmfao, [SG] at Hills in JQBL. Omg… Your poor omega dodged back a bit too far and fell off the cliff. (He didn’t need to actually really back out of aoe. It was a wooden wall and you would’ve gotten it down just fine.)

You should have heard the cries of laughter in TS when this happened. I don’t think any of us could breathe really.

Our Mumble channel was a moment of shocked silence, and then “Did he just…”, and then the laughter. That poor omega pilot’s never going to live it down, is he. <3

Great fight defending your garrison TC. You are the undisputed Kings of trolling the circle/ ressing the lord.

You should see us defending Vale sometime (especially when outnumbered) when we’re feeling really stubborn. I think we’ve held people off for what, 30+ minutes at least from capping that tiny little camp?

Dear OP,

I zoned into Lion’s Arch today just in time to hear you spew out a curse-filled tirade about spending laurels on materials, and how at level 53 you only had enough materials saved up to make OOOOOOONE level 15 inscription (blue, not green). I watched people try and help you. I watched people (like myself) try and get you to calm down enough to offer a coherent explanation of what you needed help with, so we could try and help you.

Instead, you chose to continue to swear at us, to insult us, to for some bizarre reason drag RL politics into the mix though nobody else breathed a word of it, and to say how terrible the server is. There were a lot of people who would have been willing to give you help and advice if you’d just taken a minute to breathe and say what exactly you were looking for.

Even now having made this post, you STILL haven’t said what it is you’re looking for or want, other than a vague ‘T2 mats’. Which ones? Where have you been looking? What are you killing for them? What does the cash shop have, at all, to do with the state of low-level materials in the open world? When I took my first character through the game, I completed every map as I went along, trying to stay in a difficulty around my current level as I went. I don’t remember running into problems finding materials that way until I ran into T4 and T6 crafting tiers, and even then that was pretty easily solved by deciding what I wanted (scales, blood, totems, whatever), looking up what sort of thing dropped those (either the mobs themselves or white-quality loot bags from a level range), and ruthlessly slaughtering a metric ton of them.

If you change your mind at some point and would actually like help figuring out where to go and what to kill for the specific things you’re looking for instead of just knee-jerk screaming about how terrible the server is, feel free to shoot me a private message and I’ll see what I can do.

Haha, just because Mag does something doesn’t mean another server can’t pick it up and run with it. This is hilariously fun regardless of where the idea came from.

I’ve done Frostgorge Sound and Fireheart Rise both twice now through to completion, gotten rewards etc. My ‘Friend of Fire and Frost’ achievement is still stuck at 1/2, and my Invasion Canceler at 9/13.

Karma hoarding - wanted warning about change

‘..to help mitigate the issue?’

The 20th of every month is my guild’s karma day. We’d kicked on a booster early this morning and as they logged in, my guildmates expected to be able to use a boosted month’s worth of karma consumables like we do every month. Instead, we get patch notes with the nerf handed down to us. A lot of them just went ahead and used them ANYWAY, swearing about stealth nerfs under their breath. One person had over a million karma in consumables that they went through after the patch – how are you going to ‘mitigate’ that? They’re even more kitten ed off now.

Shattered Achievement Nearly Impossible

I was having trouble getting Shattered on my home server, and randomly guested over to either Anvil Rock or CD one afternoon to catch a convenient timer and got all five in one fight. The trick seems to be just finding a server with a group that tends to cluster more to the front of the boss so they’ll actually get imprisoned, from what I could tell.

I think it could have been summed up in three lines of text instead of in a three minute video.

The backpieces can also drop from the sanctum sprint chest. I dunno about the other skins though.

6+ Months - Still no Valk/Carrion Ascended?

I don’t understand why this hasn’t been resolved yet by ANet, especially when it was confirmed to be a bug and that they’d be added. Is it still intended that these will be added at some time, or have those plans changed? If it IS still intended, why the heck is it taking this long?

Ew, that sounds incredibly frustrating. Try going to the Deadend Waypoint on the Bloodtide Coast map and running south into the Cave past the skillpoint that Agent Xinn has. Go all the way into the cave and through the portal into the Whispers headquarters, and see if that gives you one of your missing PoIs. I hope you figure it out soon.

I still wish this helm just sat on top of the head without the chinstrap, but I’m pretty happy with the look now overall.
