How to #GUEST# on another server?

Drintar.1246

Don’t know if WvWvW has anything to do with it or not right now it’s a matter of allowing people to move servers to be with their friends. In other words you have two groups of friends on different servers either you can move to play with the ones that will be most active or you can try to get all your friends to move to the same server

To answer your question yes it may be using on board video. You will want to make sure on board video is disabled in the BIOS. Next question is are you using the 12.8 drivers with CAP 2?

Teamspeak should be fine. They believe you were using some sort of application that would either play for you (a bot) or would somehow give you an advantage (examples would be hacks that allow teleporting etc) not sure if any hacks exist for the game so I’d say maybe they think you were botting.

Considering all we have to go on is your word that the names weren’t offensive and both the reporter(s) and Mod(s) word that they were…. you’re outvoted.

Not saying they are right or you are wrong, only that we don’t really know since you can’t post the offensive(?) names.

Actually he admits the names violated the rules on paper. To me that means either someone was offended or the names may have referenced a real world person he doesn’t say exactly what part of the policy on paper they would violate

How to examine people's gear?

ye i’d like the ability to do that … also items on the auction house .. sometimes i like buying stuff to transmute my gear into its kinda hard to go on gw2db and look at how the item’s model looks like then go and purchase it !

Umm not sure about the TP but you knowif you right click links in chat or right click an item on a vendor you get a little box that pops up that says preview right?

EDIT: And if the TP won’t let you right click if it lets you link it in chat you should be able to preview it that way

I put it up blindly, if somebody can use it, good for them. I will continue to do so.

Also its better then wasting the time hunting down a vendor when you in the middle of nowhere

This is really stupid because you’re breaking the market. If people like you keep doing this no one can ever make a profit because no one can ever put the same item up on the TP for a higher price. Is it really that difficult to up the price of what your selling a little?

Hell, you don’t even have to do math. If you list something that vendors for 50c and the listing fee says it’s 3c then just ballpark that the 10% fee is 10c. It’s obviously high and that’s fine. so now you’re at 13c in fees (it would actually be 8c) so round that up to 15c. List the item for 65c. Someone will still buy it but now you’ll actually make a profit on it and people that want to list the same item can match your price and also make a profit.

As it stands now, I have to either match your price and lose money or list it at a higher price than yours and never sell it. Listing items at 1c above vendor is lazy, wasteful, and it breaks the economy.

Or you know you could BUY his low priced stuff and relist it at a higher price….just sayin

WoW

Ppl are getting mad are free stuff

The world gona mad and it is true that popular saying:
“-Someone will always disagree.”

First, I’m not mad. I just find it slightly irritating. Secondly, what is the point of playing a computer game if the game plays itself?

I want to earn my XP, I want to feel accomplishment for hard work and dedication. I don’t want to level up by standing around as the world passes by and rewards me for breathing.

The reason I’m “complaining” is because it seems like the game is holding my hand. Is like its saying, “oh, it’s ok little crazylegs, we want you to feel like you’re doing something in the game, so we will give you a bronse metal for just being you”

It’s like getting a participation badge during sports day spin elementary school. If I don’t contribute, don’t give me anything. Handing me free XP just cause I’m there is insulting in a way, and you as a player should feel cheated.

I have not gotten any event reward for events that I didn’t do something in. Be it killing some of the mobs, ressing a friendly npc, something. I’ve never gotten a DE reward for just being there. Are you sure you got rewards for just standing there doing nothing?

The logic of exploits

just a quick question. Did ANet tell you this is why you were banned or did you read what other people claimed got them banned and believe it? I only ask because I really can’t see them terminating an account for botting from this. I could see them suspending someone for exploiting game mechanics possibly from this but not a full perma ban.

Quit Gw2 because of crashes. Have you quit?

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Drintar.1246

Drintar.1246

3rd party tools like msi afterburner or evga precision kind which you use for overclocking or monitoring your temps overclock etc causes gw2 to crash.. make sure you arent running them on background.

I have to disagree I run EVGA Precision to control my fan speed otherwise GW2 crashes with overheating my video card. Now the thing I don’t do is OC my card with precision. In beta they had some problems with factory overclocked video cards having issue and if the people dropped their speeds by 10% the crashes stopped so it might be an OC issue for some people.

EDIT: And no with precision running I do not crash can play all day long no problem. Without precision running I will crash it’s just a matter of how fast some days an hour some days 20 minutes depending I guess on where I am in the game.

My advice:
snip…..

2. Check which applications you have running in the background. For example I have read that tools like MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision can cause system crashes in combination with Guild Wars 2.

snip…..

Just want to say I’m not sure on that one as I HAVE to run precision to control my fan speed or the game causes my video card to crash with overheating issues. Doesn’t happen when precision is running and ramping up the fan.

Yes you did something that will require a support ticket and waiting for support to help you. While I agree the gem store should not display the digital deluxe upgrade to people that already own a digital deluxe account, I don’t understand why people think buying an upgrade on an account that is already digital deluxe would do anything.

I’ve seen a few threads on this but not seen one say what kind of help they got yet but a quick google search on “accidently deleted character with mini rytlock” pulls up a thread with a couple of CS responses via email that people copy and pasted into the thread in fact it’s the first link in the google search results. It’s over on guildwars2guru Here Basically the CS replies are they are aware of it and they are working on a way to resolve the problem but no etas etc.

Not sure what you are asking here as Gaile gave an answer. At this time they don’t have a way to do an account restoration. I’d assume that means if the character was deleted it’s gone and if they stripped the account of gear and money you’d have the characters but no cash or gear.

Just so you know they’ve stated several times to not make multiple tickets that it will actually slow down your help time because it basically bumps you to the back of the queue. You should only ever update the original ticket. With that said I hope you get some help soon.

Edit: Actually I reread your posts and it seems to me you got what you paid for. You bought the upgrade you deleted the character that had the items, a quick google search of accidently deleted character with mini rytlok pulls up a thread on guildwars2guru with the following copy pasted email answer from CS

Hey there,

If you sent your purchased items to the wrong character, you’ll be able to transfer them using your account bank that all of your characters share.

If you deleted that character however, we will not be able to recover the lost items at this time. Rest assured we are working on a way to return unused purchased items from deleted characters.

If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to let us know.

Best Wishes,
Ron

But you were impatient and bought 2000 gems and tried to repurchase the upgrade a second time. So again you got what you paid for the 2000 gems.(yes I realize the number is actually 2800 I think)

So I don’t see where you have the grounds for a charge back. You purchased the gems and received the gems so I’d think you are bordering on fraud to tell them you didn’t get what you purchased but that’s my opinion.

EDIT: After further reading of that thread here’s a second CS response

Hey there.

We are aware of the issue with Collector’s Edition/Digital Deluxe Edition items going missing after deleting a character that had them. It has happened to many of us, too. -_- A fix is coming as soon as possible, so please stay tuned to the Guild Wars 2 forums () once the forums re-open for updates!

Trading Post underpricing

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Drintar.1246

Drintar.1246

Personally, I would rather sell an item to a person than vendor it. Even if I take a very small loss.

That would only make a sliver of sense if you would have said “Give a item to a person rather then vendor it”

You cannot put items on the TP any lower then the vendors price so they may as well buy them from a vendor and in turn the market economy would not be on itskitten because of your misguided reasoning.

I have yet to find a vendor selling me small claws, venom sacs, etc. I need these the most to raise my crafting and yes I go try to farm them but the game hates me. Kill 30 mobs that drop small claws and I end up with like 5.

Is it an exploit hitting the Guild Lord from the floor?

Posted by: Drintar.1246

Drintar.1246

Just to agree here, if the NPC can’t attack you and you are as you put it avoiding external defenses then I’d have to say it’s obviously an exploit. Simple rules of thumb, if you think you are doing something that may be wrong it probably is wrong. If you are afraid that a GM would suspend you if he/she saw you doing it, it’s wrong. If you have to ask or justify the action it’s probably wrong.

While I agree I have to say I don’t know ANet’s server structure so backups of the characters that could be “restored” may just not be possible the way they are storing data right now or something. In your case though you’d think they’d have transaction logs showing the number of gems you purchased and I hope you can at least get a partial refund on the gem purchase or that maybe they send you some gems in the mail.

First of all a filter doesn’t give you the right to use foul language it’s there for an accidental slip up. Secondly if you really have no idea what you may have said and one of them sees this thread they may in fact be able to help you. Be aware though that in other threads where people said they didn’t know what got them suspended the CMs offered to post here exactly what was said. Basically they’ve stated a single word here or there won’t result in the suspension. So that means it was either using a curse word several times in map chat or something like that.

Edit: As for the refund yes it’s simply going to be a matter of waiting for them to get to you. Keep in mind an account you terminate through a refund can never be reactivated so if you have HOM rewards linked to that account you’d forever lose the rewards.

Ramped up my fan speed on the video card and don’t crash so it won’t hurt to try and rule out overheating, GW2 uses your system much more than COD4 or D3 does.

Due to the fact that the trinity doesn’t need to exist in this game I don’t see why they didn’t add a random grouping system for dungeon running. In my opinion it was the single greatest enhancement that Blizzard ever put into WoW and for a new MMO to come out without it is a bit short sighted.

I totally disagree, nothing like running pugs with a bunch of people that don’t want to say a thing and just want to rush rush rush through the dungeon as fast as they can. At least right now I hope people are learning to slow down and use strategy again.
