The Tech support sub forum would seem the best place. Suggest you include your OS, CPU/RAM/Graphics card as a start.
Looks like mine. So I guess it’s normal.
Yes. They mean much the same thing.
Hello
Please don’t take this as a serious indictment of a game that I enjoy but there are some serious problems with events.
Firstly, I should say that I have spent a lot of time exploring and re-exploring the starter areas. That’s me, harmless but I enjoy myself.
I have used http://wiki.guildwars2.com as an information source and have noticed that (1) several dynamic events listed on the site never seem to start or if they do, so infrequently that someone who spends too much time playing never gets to see them. (2) other events, particularly chained events, often “glitch” somehow soon after a game restart and stay glitched until the next restart which can be several days away.
I have sent bug reports from the in-game option but the problems persist. I can’t help but feel that the same pattern will be repeated right through the game.
I am aware that some of the information on the wiki might be inaccurate, hang overs from beta events that did not make the cut but still…
I do wish that ArenaNet would fix these or give an indication that they are addressing them, maybe divert a few resources from the very welcome new content. I’m sure that many MMOs have this kind of problem, I am reminded of a WoW quest that never worked for four years and was removed in an expansion, still unfixed. A “house” built on a shaky foundation is a problem. It continues to be a problem. It generates support calls/tickets.
Thanks.

…Each guild has it’s own chat channel… it should be “its” of course.
There are a large number of Dynamic Events that are bugged and show no sign of meaningful resolution.
These events error and one is left with the event, and often its interlocking chain, being unaccessible until the next game restart. So a bug within a few hours of the restart can leave the event (chain) locked for days on end.
I always worry when new content is being produced and the basic structure is still flawed.
I am fairly sure it’s working as intended. It is rather easy to force quit the game when you are about to die etc to avoid /deaths increasing. My understanding, I may be wrong, was that you had to do it in one zone rather later in the game.
I play with the Profanity Filter set to Normal. I never have had the need to curse to express myself and find the excessive usage of bad language to be rather silly, but that’s another story.
I understand that the word “puta” is an derogatory term. However, seeing “re——tion” being substituted for “reputation” is a little over enthusiastic.
Anyone remember the problem well over 10 years ago with the UK town of “S c u n thorpe”? The forum changes this to Skittenthorpe. Exactly the same problem as 16 years ago. Maybe needs the same solution.

I have reported this bugged event many times but it seems to have slipped your attention.
As you will know, there are centaurs to kill and sprinkler pieces to return to Clarence.
Frequently the centaurs stop arriving, often leaving
Centaurs remaining: 3
then Clarence takes the sprinkler pieces with the correct indicators
then he stops although he still appears to take them but the total bar and the your contribution disappear.
The other centaurs eventually come, sometimes sooner, sometimes a great deal later. I am sure the event has hung for many hours although I have not sat and watched it
Four problems (1) it’s obvious that there’s a count/progress overlapping error. (2) The event sticking seems to slow down or block the other events of the meta-event. (3) people are wasting their time collecting items that they don’t realise are not actually handed in. (4) There’s absolutely no feedback or acknowledgement of the bug. makes you wonder if the bug reports don’t go into an electronic hole.
Possibly a timer reset needed.
Thanks
Found “There is a skritt burglar on the loose in Tyria.” event.
