Here comes honesty. If you don’t like it, I’m sorry.
Kaineng “zergs” have been the easiest to handle in terms of just straight up killing. That goes all the way back to T8 and judging from last night, nothing has changed there. There are just more zerglings to deal with.
Maguuma “zergs” have been the hardest to handle since they have some leaders and scouts that people actually listen to, are on voice together, and act cohesively.
There was nothing honest there, straight up opinion. And as for the spawn campers, most of us wouldn’t do it. We can’t control everyone :P
Does Oozo follow us from match up thread to match up thread…or is it just me? Perhaps there are several Oozos.
I agree on the spawn camping. It’s a waste of time and resources and not at all interesting. I hope all of our Commanders eventually frown on it, but then every server does it.
Kaineng is down to +625. I imagine many of them will quit now.
LOL! That last 70 must have fallen out of someone’s pockets somewhere.
DR sure had a lot of people in our BL last evening, for the hour I was there anyway. I was spiked by DR for the first time ever, since I wasn’t around when they were in T8. I got a couple of you though
It took quite a while to get in due to the cues, when I tried to come back a couple of hours later, there was an even longer line to wait in it seemed. I gave up and called it an early night. I see the score this morning though and I am somewhat surprised. Looks like T4 next week if this keeps up.
Enjoy the week everyone!
This Kaineng thing is so weird. Watching Kaineng these few weeks has really felt like watching a train crash in slow motion.
And why is that exactly? We’re not having any issues with it. Care to elaborate?
Scores like 450k to 60k are not an issue? Kaineng hasn’t done WvW in a while, it’s matches have just been a series of jokes. Not only has this tier been a write off but NS now has been crippled further by WM, who is out on a mission to prove to Tiers 2-8 that a Tier 1 guild from Tier 1 belongs in Tier 1. I mean, if you’re having a good time, I imagine you will enjoy more of the same next week.
Thanks for elaborating. We really can’t help that the score is what it is short of taking the week off on mass. I’m not sure why you say we haven’t done WvW in a while though. I pretty much thought that’s what we were doing.
I spoke with stronger words than I meant to and now that you’ve quoted it I can’t take it back. Ignore what I said. I just meant you guys are sort of crashing through the tiers and, like watching a train crash, I am curious where it will stop. I can’t really say anything about WM or anyone that I don’t know, let alone about their motivation.
I am sad Northern Shiverpeaks lost some WvW’ers, that’s always a lil’ disheartening (thankfully my server is just about out of guilds to lose, haha).
No worries. I am curious to see where we end up as well. I have a feeling I know but won’t make any predictions. As for WM’s motives, I believe they have stated them clearly. We have no reason to doubt them, nor does anybody else in reality.
Now back to the game! Good luck in your next match.

Awesome, I know a couple of Kain players who were here since about late September will remember how we were slaughtered by Dev with our server getting around 30-50 WvW points everyday. I know I’ll be extra motivated this tier.
We respect our old opponents. We respect all enemies.
hi im from HOD, im stalking this thread >:) MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA.
psst tier 7 has been alot of fun, rocking GOM/DH kittens
hugs and kisses
a random player
You’re welcome.
GoM checking in. Just stole a bunch of HoD’s camps while Havvik was blabbing on the forums (come at me bro!)
@AR/NSP: Hurry up and ditch the Kainengs already. T7 is where it’s at.
Grats!
Wow, much excitement! It looked like this reunion was not in the cards for a while there. phew
Way to stay in there DR! We knew you would! However as fun as it will be, Kaineng should not get too focused on you. There’s a bigger gang on the block we need to contend with as well.
Have fun with the our former rival but keep that Eye of the Tiger on the real prize Kaineng!
Dear Godfather and liar Keyboard-warriors
Are you referring about when 15 WM members were playing in your borderland (Hill keep) killing over 300 people for over an hour?
We know that you had over four times our number and kept running at us again and again.
It like you guys had about 50-60 people.
You guys should be ashamed of yourself accusing of us being bots.
Maybe u can’t understand our play.
hahaha! I know we r Machine for your blood.People who only fight in the forum not in the battle field (so called `Key board warriors`) would say that WM had hundreds of people kill us. However, WM had only 15 people there.
<snip>Once again,
kudos towards our opponent who fight bravely,
and shame on you keyboard warriors writing false informations about War machine.
Good post! I have seen WM do their thing with Jang in the lead. They are amazingly focused and coordinated. They have a lot of discipline.
Some good fun was had in our own BL last night. NSP had Hills and a few of us kept annoying them building trebs up in Stargrove camp to hit the walls and counter treb somewhat. No big group, just a few people. You guys zerged that camp 3 times to get us, lol. We just kept going back randomly. We even got two of your trebs up on the walls of Hills.
Good times
P.S.
A shout out to whoever you had on those trebs up at the Hills. They were deadly accurate!
Dear everyone crying about 1v1s,
I would be open for some 1v1s as I find them enjoyable.
Love,
Some kittenty beer slogan.
Well hopefully we have another Fight Club night near the end of the week. Littlefeather will organize one most likely. You can 1v1 to your hearts content.
Hello from Kaineng
We are hoping DR hangs in and doesn’t drop down. There’s a lot of people here looking forward to the long awaited rematch. Too bad it may not happen. Come on DR stick in there!
Cheers again Kaineng
Thanks for the really fun night in Kain BL, NSP and AR. Great fights, and I ended up taking more than one dirt nap with a spike through my toon’s head. Woo!
LOL Dhampyr. That was a lot of fun. I do believe I received many more spikes than you did! Good times
Fight Club was a fun event. I’m glad I attended and that everyone had fun. I mostly got beat pretty good. especially by that Ele from GOM (I think), but managed one match anyway against someone else. I have to say I am somewhat envious of how good some of the people from both sides are at 1v1.
To the poor guy I accidentally spiked, my sincere apologies. It was some stupid carelessness on my part, totally unintentional, but I let you guys kill me twice for free anyway.
I guess we move on today, but it was a fun way to end the week. Good luck to GOM and HOD in their next match up.

One thing that’s been glossed over so far is the timing of the situation. You guys chose to take your T8 project server out for a spin during the holidays. The influx of new players who got the game for Christmas that we low tiers so desperately needed? Yeah, their WvW experience was one and done. Nobody in their right mind would want to give a situation like that a second chance.
This goes back to the whole respect thing. It’s perfectly within the game rules and your right as a player to play on whatever server you want and transfer as you see fit. That’s fine. If that’s how you want to play the game, then so be it and more power to you. But you need to understand that your enjoyment of the game is coming at the expense of ruining the enjoyment of other players whose only options at this point are to either transfer themselves or simply not play. It’s up to you whether you give a crap or not, but at least understand why everyone is so angry about it.
But, it happened and the tiers will eventually re-stabilize. And it’ll happen again, and re-stabilize again as long as transfers are unlocked. No point in arguing.
You know I just don’t think the notion that this week’s WvW Tier 7 match up has turned a lot of new players away really rings true. If they really want to play the game, and play in WvW they will. Any of them who have played other MMOs (as so many of us have) and played in PvP matches in those games would know better. As I said before, some of you really just need to chill a bit. I also don’t believe that it’s a cycle that is necessarily guaranteed to repeat, as you seem to have determined. It remains to be seen.
I do know one thing…the world is not ending.
So no, I honestly don’t understand why you are so mad. Honestly. It’s a game, and one you do not control…only one you chose to spend your leisure time on. If you love the game to the degree that you want to provide feedback and input, awesome; give it to the correct people, not to Kain, or WM, etc.
Edit: I am replying to your post but not singling you out. I’ve seen the opinion expressed by a few is all.
(edited by ghtchill.7613)
I have to say; although I’m not sure why I would bother, but almost universally I have seen people from Kain complimenting the other side, only to get mud thrown in their face by so many here. Really, all this rage vented against Kaineng is uncalled for. We’re just playing the game and winning at the moment. WM, DE or whoever can transfer wherever they like, as any Guild can.
Some of you just need to relax already. Then again, if I’d never read this forum I wouldn’t know the difference, perhaps something to keep in mind next week I guess as I expect it could be more of the same.
Overall I have found it a better class to play than my big old Guardian. It’ll be interesting to see how I develop her to 80. Nothing but fun so far…
I’m not sure it is better, but the Ranger is a lot funner than the Guardian. With the nerfs to the Guardian, it has become the least favorite of my toons.
You’re right, bad wording. It is more fun though, definitely.I still play my Guardian as it was my first 80 in this game. I had an 80 hunter in WOW, which was not my main, but the mechanics are not at all alien to me. I sure miss that handy ice block thingy though…that was way handy.
(edited by ghtchill.7613)
Oh I should add that my Ranger is my intended WvW main, but right now she is only mid-forties, so I am still experimenting. Fun fun so far! Also I am running with LB/SB/Axe War Horn. I haven’t even tried a GS yet. Mainly I switch between LB/SB. If I want to get in peoples faces and swing away< I’ll take my Guardian to do it.

There were some great battles yesterday in the HoD BL that I honestly don’t think either side can complain about. Defending the garrison the HoD were trying to get back was a blast. I think I went through 3 arrow carts up on that wall! HoD put up a prolonged, heavy assault until we eventually rushed back and grabbed their tower. It was fun and I hope the HoD players thought so as well. I saw a lot of you out there and you did outnumber us at times. Like Judge said, I haven’t seen a lot of GoM so can’t say what they are like either way.
Dhampyr, since I am fairly new I never had the opportunity to battle with DR, but it sounds like a lot of fun so I’m looking forward to it soon. Seems they are as well.
