Could someone from ebay identify the dude that always charges into battle naked? Just curious. He’s been in BPBL the past couple of nights if that helps you identify him, but surely you don’t have many people doing that? It is a funny sight (and the dude’s pretty good even if he’s being a little too in your face with the no armor thing).
Ebay, you did indeed have a large hand in this. I appreciate your advice on server wide use of TS for proper coordination and quick response capability to this day. It seems so obvious once you set up the system and do it, but the fact is we weren’t before several of your guild leaders graciously explained how you do it. But another thing to bear in mind is we’ve had several quality wvw guilds transfer to BP since that match up, including the guilds escaping all this trolling and rightfully being praised for their high calibre play, Krew and DR.
BTW, our old stalwarts WFD and BS are fine guilds that absolutely deserve none of this character assassination based on their play. I won’t comment on any of the forum warrior stuff on our end, other than to say I’d like everyone on all the servers to just stop it, it’s gross (except Jinx, his troll posts somehow always bring a smile to my face). But when y’all attack those guilds by name you’re hitting a lot of really good folks who are quality wvw players you’d be lucky to have, and never come here to make forum warrior posts.
BP bragging that oh look our 30-35 people on voice can beat your 50+, half of whom are upleveled, without consumables and not on voice.
I get your point, but you’re killing your own server making it. Those are all very fixable problems if you guys just make the effort.
Nothing/Martin Firestorm has a good sense of humor…
Thx!
I’m surprised BP hasn’t tried to recruit in the match-up thread by now lol.
Oh yeah, thx for the reminder. To all you Ebays and SBI who prefer not to suck….j/k
This thread is so deja vu from the EB/BP/AR unending match a few months ago, except the roles of the accusers and the accused have flipped along with the lead. You zerg, no we deploy skill groups, you just win with coverage, no we win with better tactics, you glitch, that’s not a glitch and if you’d l2p you’d get it, etc.
Just need to toss in a few dumpsters, virgins, and your jimmies are rustled and its springtime again!
There is one huge glaring difference.
BP never improved thier skill level. I literally stop flying [JINK] n[GF] when solo vs BP. Literally unless its 5+ BP runs.
Dude, people treb you, ofc we run when we see you.

We wuv u Jinks!
C’mon people, stop being bads. Less talkin’ more…
Sekz? You have to get over it already. It’s not you, it’s them.
Its all part of pay to win mechanics. Anet gonna make cash somehow. And guilds are not moving because of cash nor because they lack server loyality or anything like that. They simply move because they want good WvW experience instead of kitten WvW experience that high tier servers have.
fixed
Juggling the many cooldowns by memory, i.e. without being able to see the counter most of the time makes this a nightmare.
What? Have you played ele?
Maybe you should spend more time in cursed shores, your foes are more predictable there the way you like. Drink up dude.
ZERG guild,
Why do you constantly run away? In NSP BL the only time I didn’t see you running was when it was 20-4… yet the 4 of us were willing to stand and fight. When the numbers evened you ran. Thankfully Lost was still around to give us a good fight.
I don’t even think [ZERG] has 20 people in their roster.
We don’t, but if you drink enough beer 5 + 5 = 20, right Beerdrinker?
You don’t want staff in wvw if you roam or are in very small groups, say up to 3. Beyond that it shines. But regardless, yeah, keep daggers and all weapon sets in your inventory at all times. Also, I’d put the other 10 in earth and take armor of earth for staff and either that or elemental shielding for d/d.
Thats the difference Between bp and other servers. Other servers see that as a roamer and let them go fight other smaller opponents. Heck even 1-2 or 1-3 is fair. Bp thinks hyuck let’s chase them all over the map with 20 people.
I can’t believe u chased down my poor quaggon.
Dude, don’t try it lol. 90% of solo roamers we pass by follow us and try to pick off the stragglers. I mean, we don’t like having to kill people that we out number, but how else an I supposed to feel better about myself? AND there were only 5of us.. But your right, if there were 20 of us we would have still chased :} BUT to be fair, if we stopped killing every player that was solo or AFK then we wouldn’t have anyone on NSP to kill
I don’t actually mind. U play your way and I’ll play mine. Is a game after all. Play for fun. Im just saying bps community culture actively inhibits small group play. Top tier thinking. Bottom teir population.
Not really, you just have to be resourceful, and know when not to engage (also known as run).
BTW, not sure what was meant about fighting under our tower, but we likewise have to be resourceful when 20+ are coming after us. But the point is we engage in the kind of small man game that someone said BP does not have. We’re not above pouncing on smaller numbers though, no denying that.
What was meant is that the couple times we’ve seen people running the ZERG tag they are afraid to fight with semi-even numbers and tend to fall back to a tower or run while we nip at their heels. I don’t know how large ZERG is or how many different groups they run but this has been my experience so far. We just like to have good fights and you won’t hear trash talk from [Splt] if you give us one so don’t be afraid of your egos being bruised (this applies to anyone we fight).
Cheers
I can only assume that there was another group from your or the other server in the area. We do not run from semi-even number fights, and actually prefer larger enemy groups. But at some point I gotta think about my stacks.
Then I can only assume your guild runs a couple different groups and we have not met on the battlefield.
We don’t. We’ll keep an eye out for Splt and see if we can make a better impression next time.

bump Because we’re better than those other servers…
Are there any small mans out there on BP or Kain? All I’ve come across so far is groups of 10+ that will relentlessly chase 3 players across the entire map.
ZERG mostly runs 8 – 10 atm. We have several other similar guilds, though sometimes we do team up.
OMG, the BG-SoR-DB match thread is 28 pages!!
You guys are skilled, we recognize that. The Oceanics comments are really just a factual observation. You have them, we don’t, and in a 24/7 game that’s a huge advantage, agreed? It’s also our way of saying we feel we can compete evenly with you on the field, even though you’re steamrolling us in the match. Maybe there’s a little jealousy there because its unlikely we’ll ever have that kind of Oceanic presence, but I have to add if having it meant moving into the upper tires I’d consider a transfer. The huge zerg fests, skill lag, and queues that come with upper tier status is not what I want from wvw.
C’mon SoS, you don’t have the balls to break out your kites when ZERG brings it to your BL? For shame.
So i guess my real question is, why do you play, what keeps you playing,…
Comraderie, skill, fun. You get it or you don’t, if you’re having to try to have fun it probably isn’t the right game for you.
Stillsky, familiar with projection? Pretty sure [BURN] has not been mentioned once in this thread.
Yeah I was astounded to see I can’t kick an offline person from the party to invite someone else. It’s like having a car without a brake.
More like a brake without a car.
This is a solid wvw guild, a very good choice for someone looking for your first wvw guild or to make a move from from your current one.
Typical jade quarry always trying to recruit no matter where they are…
That reminds me… rumor has it you may be considering a little more out of your WvW than you’ve been getting on Borlis Pass… we should talk.
Don’t believe everything you hear.
Another week, another move up in the rankings, but still mid-tier and loving it. Join us if this sounds like the kind of wvw you’re looking for.
Personally, I want EBay to drop a few ranks. I’m sick of all the large zergs. It’s ruining my fun.
Just give it time, you’re heading in the right direction.
Who would care about the way point then. A useless waste of gold.
Clearly you are unfamiliar with the WvW mechanics and strategies. Way pointing doesn’t cost gold in WvW.
Clearly I am because the upgrade would be a waste and costs gold, hence a useless waste of gold. I’ve paid for it several time.
OP you were set up.
I usually have to go outside WvW to go gather stuff to be able to pay for my 40 silver spent in repairs for the day, since I dont get to tag too much, my net gain there is sometimes not even 15 silver a day
Not trolling you, but you’re doing something wrong.
Why would you karma farm… to begin with?
My thoughts exactly. I have way more that I know what to do with. There are whole guilds out there, on multiple servers, that care enough to bother with this? Sounds fishy.
I dont see a single Pro for this timing…
Uhhh….because it’s prime time for you, not me?
BP, your borderlands is looking pretty solid….
Wouldn’t it be sad if something happened to it… at night when you’re all asleep
FTFY.
Hmmm-all in the eye of the beholder. When you are sleeping, I am playing. When you are playing, I am working. Maybe you could play instead of sleep then.
C’mon, be fair…take the rest of the week off and play when we do.
BP; if we are going to be matched up with you can you at least not run into a tower as soon as you see some red names?
It’s a video game, dying isn’t the end of the world.
BUT THE REPAIR BILL!
Shelter behind the walls of a tower and you diminish repair costs for a day.
Teach yourself to shelter behind your own skill and you diminish repair costs for a lifetime.
Kinda like that eating fish/learning to fish deal, huh?
Just had a chuckle, BP actually has a guild named [ZERG] now. Though they weren’t exactly a zerg at the time they passed me up. Only 5-6.
That’s mostly made up of Soul members, as it kinda lost steam after Kyle left. No, we’re no zerg, that’s the joke. Full guild name is 2 to 50, I’m sure you get it.
The only good guild I saw that actually tried this week was [Hawk]. Every other guild was pathetic and useless.
Ouch, my e-feelings.
I thought Canadians were above this type of bullying…
lol You must not follow hockey.
No excuses, no apologies, no kitten. Borliss, way to step it up. This match-up has been a constant tug-o’-war between us, and you have proven yourselves a worthy adversary.
Many of us give much of the credit to the long match with Ebay and what we learned by watching, and also by implementing some of the communication and coordination tips some of you were kind enough to share. Sorry about the internal strife we’ve been hearing about. With success comes heightened expectations and pressure to win, and a fun game becomes something else. I hope y’all get it worked out.
[BS] and [WFD] are still some of the easiest to kill guilds out there.
Utter bullkitten.
(edited by nothing.7941)
Interesting little south camp scuffle we had there. We had 4-5 and you each had 3-4… and focused us – it was cute. I actually lol’d. It took you guys a long time to kill us
What? You’re chest thumping over a smaller group taking a long time to kill you?
Key word there being “each,” as in 2 groups of 3-4.
This is a great guild, lots of fun and very capable on the field in wvw. Borlis is very lucky to have Krew back. Check them out if you are thinking about a new guild.
Ebay, are you there? Helloooo…..
Edit: ok, y’all are showing signs of life again, I’ve called EMS back.
(edited by nothing.7941)
All I can say in closing is that hate us all you like, whether you like it or not, both your servers have friends here in the Bay.
Just speaking for myself here (pretty obvious after reading the last page of this thread), but same to you Ebay (don’t know CD well enough to say, but I’m sure it’s the same). Not sure what some of my server mates are so worked up about, I guess it’s the residue of a too long 13 week match. We all have our forum warriors, but imo KStudios is not one of them.
Actually, I was referring to both you guys and the Rock, lol. I only knew of Sovereign from CD, and I get the feeling he is no longer with them. If he is he’s being very quiet here in the forums. Which was awfully unlike him judging by last time we met.
Ohh, well I gotta admit I just skimmed 2 pages of posts here at work, including yours. Poor AR, I doubt you guys will ever see them again. Better chance of us getting matched up against them, but I kinda doubt it.
(a) Not entering WvWvW maps – Affects WvW participation / attendance reports
tl;dr: If you love wvw and want improvements, your best bet is not to play wvw. Nose, meet scissors.

Oh BP. Are you guys still caught up with all the trash talk all those weeks ago?
Just admit it, you love us and we both made each other better. Trolls and chestthumpers aside.
Yep, no doubt.

PvD commanders and players get no respect from me. The fact our guys are happy to beat on an empty map and back cap wood towers from CD is pathetic lol. PPl will never learn how to fight if all they do is run to the empty bls.
I agree. So we should implement a simple rule. Everytime your forces are going to attack a keep or tower, you must let the enemy know about it. Before the attack can commence, the enemy zerg must be there in full force. That way, there will be no PvD and everyone involved learns how to fight better.
Another option is CD worries about what CD does and….
We are so good we ran away and hid behind legendary defenders
Fixed it for you.
sorry we couldn’t handle ur amazing might stacking technique along with your super sneaky movements
do u guys give lessons?
I know you are desperately trying to chest thump, but when even Monkey Shinezzzzzzz joins in on trolling you at your spawn, it might be time to go check out the steam sale for something new.
Monkey Shinez is the most famous person on BP. I sometimes think BP has only come this far because of his words of wisdom. That man is a scholar.
Most people don’t realize that Monkey Shinez is actually Ian Boyd, master strategist.
(This is sure to get this thread going, boring threads suck)
success!
bump…….bump
And Anet is responsible for improving this specific part of the game experience. It’s their job to make things enjoyable after all.
No it’s not, not in the way you mean anyway.
Yeah, I’ve fought Abyss a few times this week. That is a well coordinated and effective skill group.
Good luck KAOS and LPC.
