Like I said, please, have a nice day!

Shame you wouldn’t address my arguments. Nevertheless, enjoy your day

Fine I’ll take “just an icon”, platinum color general insignia, and thanks for agreeing with me. And permanent was what we got for 4 months; those that stayed that is, I quit till they reversed the prejudice against some of the WvW player(s). If they had added the ranks icon everywhere first I would have no problem with the PvP icons. Also just because you don’t think anyone cares about WvW rank does not make it a universal truth, I like mine very much and could care less to see a PvP icon in any game mode not relevant to the PvP tournament.

Edit: but I agree a toggle would be nice, they just need to get to work on making the WvW icons now.

First of all, what prejudice? – from your old posts its as if you quit because youre making up assumptions that there are rifts between pvp and wvw players? You’re delusional.
Secondly, I can argue that getting a high rank in wvw takes less skill as it is pretty much just the amount of time you spend zerging, hopping on that k-train, spamming 1 and capping stuff. Heck I have over 2.5k wvw levels and even I know world rankings mean kitten all.
Lastly, pVp is a better indicative of skill because to reach diamond-legendary you would need more than half a brain and an excellent understanding of EACH classes and different builds. It is also more balanced. IF you’re saying pvp doesnt translate to WvW-pvp mechanics then youre straight up stupid or ignorant.

It is very clear that they cared more for the PvP community when they added the irremovable icons from the names while not doing so for the WvW crowd, if you disagree that is your right. As for skill, I generally enjoy GVG’s and small scale skirmishes that require you know positioning, tells, and what players are the larger threat, so no, many of us don’t hang out in EotM or button mash so you are wrong there. I am not, nor have ever, said there is no skill involved in PvP, but having PvP icons in WvW makes as much sense as having WvW icons in PvP. Feel free to read my post history if you don’t believe me.

Oh and btw calling someone delusional, ignorant and/or stupid for having a different opinion that your own is aggressive and rude, but then again that was the general impression I got from many players when last I entered the PvP lobby.

Please have a nice day!

It’s not about which mode Anet cares the most. WvW has pvp aspects and it makes sense for the badges to be there. It’s as simple as that. I have been heavily involved in the GvG scene and have many friends from guilds such as EP, Agg, NS and GS of whom are all top tier guilds and each were considered the top guilds from NA for a time.

I’m sorry to break it to you, but it’s the internet. If your feelings got hurt in Hotm – get over it. There are bad apples in each game mode and it’s not fair to generalize.

Your main argument is that you can’t show off your wvw rank? Nice.

And I’ve seen plenty of good WvW guilds with players in sPvP so what’s your point?

I’ve seen GS, BOO, KnT, ND, QQ and many other notable WvW guilds with multiple members in legendary.

The PPT orientated or siege orientated guilds generally don’t make it very far in sPvP and mirror the types of responses that are all over this thread such as ‘lol pvp is for noobzzzz’ etc.

Also lol @ the guy here commenting about running thieves guild on a roaming thief, you are hilarious. Probably run dire perplexity as a roamer and think you’re good at this game too.

My guild is AD, there are 4 of us that play thief. Ergo: thieves guild.

s/d power build ty.

Is there a reason as to why you keep bringing up that you play a thief your posts?. You trying to come off as some godly thief or something?

It was nice to see if your ‘zerg’ had legendary players in it or not. The better the zerg the more legendaries there were in general lol.

They should make it an option to turn off/on rather than just turn everything off. Even with other visual clutter you get options to turn off/on so why not this.

While they’re at it, I want a WvW badge in PvE/PvP thx

Boy, that’s funny and completely untrue. Every good WvW guild I know of hardly does PvP at all. Sure, there’ll be a few guys who are into pvp, but generally, nope.

Lol. I wonder if your definition of good wvw guilds are the ones like SoX and other ppt guilds. Every top tier fight guild I’ve seen have plenty of excellent pvp players.

I am not gonna participate in ranked pvp anymore if they don’t restore these badges like it was before the patch ! end of story ! in fact the more they do changes likes this the less im gonna play gw2 at all, until i quit playing completely ! this is an outrageously unfair change !

So you play spvp solely to have a badge displayed to your name? What is wrong with people these days..

I don’t see anything wrong there.

This is intentional. We made the change to help with nameplate visual clutter in WvW.

Really? I, and many others, play pvp and wvw 90% of the time. Some have gone through and did the hard work for the sole cosmetic display of badges in wvw. It’s not hurting anyone so why change it?

You played to legendary solely to show the badge in WvW? I don’t believe it.

Believe it or not, some people do enjoy the player vs player aspect(s) of this game.

If you played ranked pvp solely for the pvp aspect then you wouldn’t care about a cosmetic item.

Pvp and wvw are both player vs player game modes, is it not?. Going by this logic, let’s disable mastery ranks in PVE to reduce clutter.

It’s clutter that isn’t needed in WvW.

So are tonics, potions and comestic gem store items. What’s your point?

the first step would be to remove arrow carts

why that, if you dont mind me asking.

they’re overpowered and can ruin a fun fight between clashing guilds. They’re also boring to use, I mean who enjoys pressing 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 over and over when instead you can test your PvP skills by actually joining the fight by running with your commander.

Its WvW, not PvP. You can test your skills in sPvP.
Siege were meant to be used in WvW and just because its boring to use doesn’t mean that Anet should remove it.

Additionally I think they should buff AC/Ballista dmg a bit. Its a siege after all.

looks at forum signature

figures.

Great players, GL on recruiting

We’re still recruiting! We play for fights.

Here’s short video of one of our nightly raids:

Glad to see our NA getting more love. Personally would love to see a more competitive t2.

If you’re an OCX/SEA player and looking for a hardcore wvw/gvg guild – give us a try!
I joined this guild shortly after I transferred to SoS and I have not regretted it since.

Here’s a video of our recent raid featuring Meow and TC militia

Check out SoS, we’ve got some old guilds from KN over here

It was fun fighting your 80 man blob during SEA, SBI. Them portal bombs were top notch. Thank kitten you were finally able to match our own 80 man blob that we’re apparently able to amass at this time.

Icebot.6103:

Yeah, this has been a weird week for us (SoS), I am not sure it is the fairweathers, because let’s face it, you guys are terribly boring to fight. As much as I respect your ability to hold PPT, it’s just a super boring way to do WvW, I much prefer being outnumbered by Tier 1 servers, than servers that constantly run back to their 17 arrow carts they have jammed around a gate.

Or if everyone is just on vacation, who knows. We’ll see next week what happens.

I gotta say SoS is the boring server to fight, huge queue blobs, horrible roamers, glitchers taking towers, and really bad PvF. All around I can understand why 90%% of our population is still taking a break.

So basically, “I know you are you said you are but what am I?”

Terravos.4059:

The only time you wiped the SBI zerg was when you got together in an 80 man zerg with both guilds and fairweathers…The few times you separated anywhere near the SBI numbers, you got rolled over rather handily, Its why you were running in such a large zerg in the first place, You couldn’t compete without the Numbers Advantage.

sirflamesword.3896:

huge queue blobs

Must be the 80 man blob of stoned Australians running around again. Existence is completely unknown to half a server yet still manage to pop up here and there.

Seriously, I haven’t seen a map blob nearly as big as this 80 man mystery since we were facing TC a few weeks back. Which was during Oceanic prime. I official count was 53. Not since I’ve been running with NA have I seen anything that has come close to that during peak time. Not even Luvpie could blob that many people.

I’ve never seen you guys get that big of a zerg either…But that night you had a massive zerg…

I’ve not seen zerg’s that size since SBI was a T1 server

We didn’t have an 80 man zerg that night, the combined force of CB and CNB reached around 30 in TS and we probably had 10 or so pugs running with us. Stop blowing it out of proportion

Wants fights

Hides in keep

Hiding? What part of 2 x map blobs trying to take 1 keep didn’t you understand? There was EXS or whatever they are called bashing on south gate, FUN rushing through for fights inside the inner every now and then, the rest of SBI running around outer ramparts and banging on gates.

Speaking of useless blobs, YB sitting outside north inner doing not too much at all. Then running off after the slightest hint of a SoS rush.

So yes, we were hiding in the keep this time. If by hiding you mean absolutely surrounded on all sides. Most of the time was spent running around scrambling to get supplies and repairing the outer after each time you dropped a few rams then just ran off when we came to say hello.

Terravos.4059:

….. Is someone from SoS actually saying they didn’t have 80 people last night in EB?

Rofl..

Rashkin, Just for reference, that 80 man Blob you were running last night in EB, It was all you…YB wouldn’t be able to differentiate between SBI and SoS last night either because we didn’t see YB all night because they just weren’t there…

I don’t know what the hell you are on about, but I’m currently playing NA times. I am also spending 99% on that time inside the borderlands.

I played Oceanic during Season 1 and a bit after and I didn’t see anything resembling an 80 man blob on any of the maps at that time of day (or night for the oceanics). Hell, Luvpie can’t even rally that many when he runs NA prime and he tends to attract the blobbiest of SoS blobs. Maybe the SEA players got all the people scattered about the BL and blobbed them on EB for some reason. Other then that, your claims are questionable.

I’ve played all times, You never have anywhere near the numbers that you had the night before.

When Zergs start crushing the FPS on my computer… its starts getting into the silly level.

We kept laughing though, cause you guys spent like 4 hours doing nothing till ya managed to take SM from us after you second attempt (your first attempt you shouldn’t of failed)

The rest of the time the zerg was running around in a giant ball not really taking anything, the few times it got split it got wiped…But you guys had keeps in your own BL that wasn’t yours, and you didn’t take squat in EB… It was a Huge waste of a massive zerg that should of let you guys roll the hell over us.

If anything with that zerg, you could of turned SBI entire BL’s Green with us not being able to stop you.

To be honest that run started with CB joining up with CNB in order to fight your blob. It was quite sad that we had to join up just to match what you were running that night. Also, I can assure you CB was only playing for FIGHTS and we absolutely despise playing for ppt. CNB and CB alone wiped your blob a few times before we decided to get rid of your waypointed SM.

Stating that our first try shouldn’t have failed is just silly. Don’t get ahead of yourself. Most SoS guild groups would wipe any of yours in an even matched open field fight. You guys also had a waypoint and I commend you guys for making full use of it. After we capped SM we decided to call it a night as ppt play is boring as kitten.

Congrats on your win this week.

It was pretty hard to find fights during OCX but i’d like to thank the few guild(s) that fought us throughout the week, most notably [Olaf]

Shame we couldn’t cap your garri tonight though! we really wanted that waypoint badly. Well done on the defence.

<3 CB

Hey TC, maybe you’d like to come out of your towers and fight 1v1 and 2v2 instead of camping behind walls on cannons, and waiting for 10 more players to come back you up.

Sounds almost like you’re calling out sentries for doing their jobs. Seriously.

Sounds like a thrilling life decision, open a game, not play it (coward), eat burgers, repeat.

Some people understand the value of working as a team

Ran across a TC mesmer in TCBL whilst roaming before work, he preceded to ./beckon me whilst backpedaling to your guards/keep. I guess that’s teamwork !

nah probably just kitten

I Deschain I.4623:

I don’t know if you read this, but to the Bronze Invader Ranger from CB: I’m sorry the guy killed you at Klovan, he was tunnel visioning. I tried to find you and say sorry, but couldn’t find you. It was you (and your ele friend) earlier at NW camp in TCBL right?

And to the Silver Footman from FA, whose name I can’t say ‘cause of forum rules. Keep trashtalking us in whispers, having a good laugh right now (cheer up tho too, don’t be mad); and wash your mouth with the salt we sent you.

Yup, that was us on NW camp xD. Every borderland was so dead at that time so we moved to EBG to find some fights.. Shame about that thief when I came to say Hi, I lagged out for a bit and by time it was over I was a corpse :p

Best of luck, hope you guys find the right server!

best of luck recruiting.

DivineBeing.2086:

Anyone else tired of hearing about duels, 1v1, and gvg in WORLD vs WORLD vs WORLD?

I mean its almost as if 1v1, duels, or gvg isn’t the main purpose of WORLD vs WORLD vs WORLD….who would of thought….

Some people are playing the wrong game type…. TPVP is that way —-->.

Were you by any chance the dev that interfered with a gvg?

Thank you for the GvG [Omen] & [WM], shout out to WM for the well fought battle :p

Great fun tonight, thanks!

Personally enjoyed this match up <3, best of luck on reset!

CuddleStrike.8215:

SFShinigami.2015:

I would have joined you but I’m JQ and I’ve never even guested on TC nor been to Divinity’s Reach bars nor stumbled upon naked players standing next to each other quietly. Nope. Never happened.

Also, Cuddles never went either. Never.

Also, Jed never beat up a pimp to free his…ladies,

Not at all. I have no idea what on earth you could be talking about at all. Ever.

Go to bread Shini!

Also! I believe I owe a weeks worth of snuggles since I’ve been gone for many many days. snuggles all of them!

To the CB tonight in that GvG and the ones I spoke to afterwards, a pleasure to watch the GvG and awesome to chat to some of you for a while. That annoying ranger, you know who you are! :P

Score Update attached, per usual. Snuggle Fiercely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a pleasure to meet you also – You guys got your revenge when I got ganked killing that shark LOL. Also, Big props to the other half of the gank squad, Taozi, without him we wouldn’t be having this convo :P

You guys did really well for your first GvG and it looks like you all had fun!, glad to see more guilds giving it a go. Good luck to your future GvGs and see you all around soon!

Much love to [EP] – great bunch of people. Pleasure having you on some of our raids

Why do people even QQ when you get killed doing your Karma trains in WORLD vs WORLD

Seigfried.5938:

fishball.7204:

SoS would like to thank the Tier 1 karma trains for feeding us lootbags all night during Oceanic prime. xoxo <3

You need an AC to kill a bunch of berserkers and uplevels? Poor choice to attack an invul keep lord btw. I guess guilds scare you too much, so you have to resort to picking on uplevels.

I personally don’t agree with karma training at any time of the week, but chest thumping after wiping uplevels shows poor character. I expected no better anyway.

Hey now, he’s simply showing gratitude.. look there’s a love heart as well sheeesh

thanks for the fight SoR/BG @ SoR BL! had heaps of fun

Blackgate + ZDs vs SoR thread Gold League Round 3

This thread is very..entertaining.

Good fun at SoS BL – Was running with [CNB] and we came across plenty of fights.

Had a lot of fun defending SoS Garri tonight. Thanks for the everlasting fights xD

Comprissent.3856:

At least we now know SoS can’t beat mag when they can’t put up +695 on us all week long OCX

Pretty sure we’re against TC also, not just Mag.

Try again.

hi Mag hi TC <33333333333

Korbaal.6402:

All this talk from SoS players saying SoR is disgraceful, match fixing, lost respect blah, bah blah. Its nonsense I’ve spent all night (EU) fighting SBI on EB and its been the most fun I’ve had all week. Where is SoS? Nowhere to be seen. To me it seems SoS is throwing their match and not even trying to put up a fight. So who are the match fixers here? How can we possibly focus SoS when there is nobody to focus? Do you think we are not gonna take your unguarded keeps and towers?

Thank you so much SBI for coming out and fighting tonight despite overwhelming odd’s you still came at us all guns blazing. I tip my tin foil hat to you good sir’s.

You cannot be serious.

Fannwong.3059:

Hello Akaimon,

Aye, good running with familiar names. Hope to see you guys tonight again. Have a good week guys.

A shout out to SOS [CB] guild, tight train, great dynamics. Hope to see you guys tonight. /salute.

akamon.2769:

dang, i missed those Mesmer drops. XDD best tower/keep defence, easily.

had a lot of fun following Fannwong last night! been a while buddy, always good to run with you.

then stuck around for some small fights as well. it’s been fun, SBI / SoS!

happy start to the leagues everyone.

likewise, its been a fun week!

No we are not tanking this match, I find it insulting to assume so.

but then again I don’t speak for the whole server.

Thanks for the fight IRON, PH & AT. Hope to see you guys again soon.

them skill lags >.>

Completely agree – the difference between SoS & TC being 4th and 5th is stupid.

thankies for the fights tonight <3

Had a great time defending SoS garri last night – ya’ll kept coming!. Eagerly looking forward for the rest of the week.

Good fights, KoME & Time.

also..Had fun fighting you whoever you are xD

Welcome to SoS <3
