All of this chest thrumping and emote spams from JQ… even SoR seems classy the last 2 matches we had with them.

yeah gotta say sor was pretty nice and actually i had a couple of awesome duels with a few of them. sor would at least let us take stuff to get a karma train going. jq seems more like a big bully to me atm. lat time we were matched up with them during jq/fa/bg it was actually fun.
also maybe next time jq spawncamps sos we might just hit u from behind with our group;-) by accident and then maybe place a few flamrams on your bodies…just maybe

It looks like FA is cracking at the seams. They fall apart too much and we might get two new servers into gold.

we are a little beaten atm, but we got a great community. the ones that leave wont be missed as we keep on fighting. people are just a little tired atm due to constant mass blobs, spawn camping and lack of sleep. we get moments where our moral is down, but we wont let t1 destroy our server.

and there is still time to have a little fun

I’m a Mag PvE nublet, but even I’m putting in my time to push us to get the 6th spot. Gained 20+ WvW ranks thanks to the Cody Train last nite!

And from my own observations, Maguuma has Tier 1 skilled players with Tier 8 coverage. Thus is the reason why we deserve that spot, since skill is measured higher than population.

ok so ive seen maguuma in various matchups and yes u guys lack coverage. u have some pretty good players on your server. so does my server. we push zergs that outnumber us by a lot and win many times and i gotta say lower tier servers are way more about tatics that numbers. but believe me u dont wanna be in gold league. if your 30 man zerg runs into a 70 man jq zerg u might get a few wins, but a lot of times u get steamrolled.
i think u have faced a t1 server before…not sure, but the current t1 have stacked even more and do have some very skilled guilds now. but if u get up here, u will see for yourself.

my server is fighting hard and we are a little tired but we wont give in. even while sitting on 10ppt we will still try to push. so hope u guys will do the same.

October 15th balance/skills updates preview.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

i see a lot of good suggestions here. a lot of people refer to spvp 1v1 balance though and spvp is a pain for eles atm. for mesmers its somewhat ok, but the lack of aoe, stability and weakness to conditions is still an issue. as a mesmer in zvz fights daily i do feel very up atm and the update doesnt promise anything to change that issue.
my problem is
im great in spvp 1v1 and roaming, but in a zerg not viable apart from being used by warriors as their servant veil/tw, massinvis/nullfield/portal bot. this is making my gaming experiance pretty bad atm. anet nerfed glamour build into the ground of nothingness and never gave us anything viable back in that area. imo it was the only good thing that worked in wvw zergfights.

the warrior meta in wvw zergfights is a pain and like the video of counterplay stated, there is no counter play as it doesnt make sense to give a dps, tanky class with the best healing the most cc in the game. as heavy armor classes are already pretty tough, they dont need to stun an enemy to kill it. they dps it down and have their toughness and vitality to stay up in a fight. it does make sense though that they have stability.

now a light armor class does need a lot of stuns and cc as they need to be able to keep the heavy dps classes off our backs. our dmg should be coming from condis, cc, aoe and be a viable counterplay vs warrior trains.
confusion was that as it punished the 11111 spammers with massive dmg. we didnt need dps (glam build has like 900 power and 1700 condi dmg while having 1400k toughness) we had the confusion too keep the warriors on distance as when u get confusion u gotta back off a little before attacking again.
eles have a very low health pool and in spvp need some more cc to keep those warriors off their backs too. staff eles in spvp need a buff as its not viable atm, but in wvw staff eles are part of the meta due to aoe that hits like a truck and waterfields support.
thats why necros are in a good spot in spvp and wvw. they got fear and marks to keep an attacker off their back and enough condi and aoe dmg to be a big threat. aoe is the most important thing in a zerg fight, thats why mesmers are missing out atm.
people even advised everyone to roll a warrior/necro/ele or guardian. engi is ok and if played right pretty strong, but mesmers and rangers are bottom feeders.

AND the winner is DRAGONBRAND on the winner’s podium of the silver league. Maguma was first out of the runners’ block (stealthy) but Dragonbrand put in a late challenge (stunningly very obvious) over taking Maguma. SOS savvy and strategic as always was pretty much left behind where they normally belong (in the gold league on the last spot).

I don’t get it… Dragonbrand won’t even win silver league, they’re going to lose to sos, ehmry, and sbi.

Well, from past performances I know Dragonbrand is a close rank 4 with TC. That is all I know about Dragonbrand as I am not in the server. There are rumours recently contrary but how true they are I don’t know one way or the other. That is my perspective and there hasn’t been any public news to contradict my perception. Well, perhaps if more insiders or people in the know would make some public statement then my view will change more.

P.S. Do you know more that is worth divulging? Please do enlighten me.

actually dragonbrad is trying to avoid gold league. and they did lose a bunch of guilds to t1. but who can blame them? heck i wish fa could move to t3 to avoid the gold league. we are sitting on 10ppt atm and sos same. jq is even spawncamping us because they are bored. this for 7 weeks is a disaster.
i wont leave my server for t1 ever. i love my server and kudos to all the db that stick to their server. i wish none to be matched up with jq or sor at. its ridiculous what u see out there.
i think u beat 40 players and then another 30 show up behind them. then u switch bl and u see the same thing u switch again and another 70man zerg waiting for u to attack something.
jq had 3 wp in our bl, so our only way out was a 40 omega golem rush…

Thank you for your attempt, sir, but as I believe you are not an insider or participant of the Dragonbrand server like myself then your well intended input is just a general rumour floating around and not a direct source. But well put nonetheless.

not a sir ;-). but yeah its a rumor, but honestly i wouldnt blame them if they were trying to avoid gold league.

in Match-ups

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

So why is SoS always so insistent on establishing a 2v1? I’m skeptical that would even work at this point given how many guilds have joined the all-expense-paid bandwagon to JQ.

And I can’t speak for FA (although many will express the same sentiment), but me having fun in WvW isn’t something that’s conditional on accomplishing even the slightest thing in regards to PPT or score.

honestly, i do have a strong urge to work with sos rather than against them.
today i saw a giant jq zerg running into their pangloss while a bunch of sos were trying to fend that massmob off ogre watch and i went in stealth and put a supply trap down to help sos…and because its fun to do that. sos has been spawncamped like we did.

the other day 3 of us were in so bl karmatraining camps as ther really wasnt anything else we could do. so when jq attacked sos garrison we went and put a guild cata down at hills. well 3 people managed to get into the lords room but omg it does take a while to get that lord down…XD
well in the end sos came in an capped it and we all were like… well at least jq doesent own it anymore and sos had an easy cap.
so seriously if fa attacks sos then its only because we see an opportunity to get at least a few caps, but we are busy enough on our side and we are facing the same 70 man blobs everywhere we go.

yeah really really helpful. keep those coming!
the new people have to learn about upgrades and tower defenses and siege placement. we had a guy from my old guild training people on trebs and mortars and ac’s for weeks.
a new player will always feel lost in wvw when they start.
i can remember when i got to wvw for the first time. i used to buy the wrong upgrades because i didnt know. i didnt know how to use a ram or a treb. i didnt know about builds or anything. then i got picked up by a guild and learned the ropes quite fast.

these videos could definitely encourage newbies to play more often and effectively help the server.

Certainly not the best but I have good fun on my LB/GS Bunker Ranger.

Details:

I run a Hybrid DD Bunker build, static Wolf Pet with Master Bond
Build is here: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fMUQJARTjAVV2JWCWs2Bi2jJZpzzKoo3D0v+2nyPqwbPA-jUDBYMYoNBigAj+IQJQFRjtCqIasqZAqGY6SJV/KyWzB2gGylQZVKAmUGB-w

Benefits ( I am Rank 235 so I have +100 Power/Condi and +2500 hits, also bloodlust stacks not factored in link)

- 20K hits with stacks
- Barkskin Dam Reduc, kicks in at 5K hits
- 60% static condition reduction (Hoelbrak+Poultry lemongrass)
- Passive SoTW and Pet Regeneration
- Frequent dodges with Energy Sigils/Wilderness endo regen
- 2000 tough/3K armor without a signet
- Passive movement speed 25%
- Stun break (LR)
- 3500 attack with both 2H Weapons
- +550 to all pet stacks with 30BM/Masters Bond (Pet traited with +30 Movement rate)

Works real well in small man guild groups as well as solo play. LB is good fun at keep fights. Handling 1v2 quite well even vs tougher classes.

good to see a few rangers out there, but when we are talking about the meta its not about roaming and 1v1. mesmers do excellent in 1v1. i hate facing mesmers in a 1v1 and i main a mesmer…..the issue though is large group viability. i can take down a single warrior(on my roamin=spvp build) but the warrior trains are over the top atm. they are the new noob class and godmode in wvw.all u hear in ts is get on your warrior we are losing, cc on the right, cc there, veil, reroll warrior or get out, u are a rallly bot go warrior or guardian…..

everyone is in t1 atm so they have massive queues and a massive coverage. i think t1 should be in their own league, because right now http://mos.millenium.org/na/matchups/map/1019

2 servers are being almost spawncamped on each bl.
we love to fight, but massive hammer trains everywhere u go is not really a good fight.
t2 servers wanna move down to escape atm. guilds flee or are getting paid to join kitten is getting a little out of hand.oh well… bring it!

I agree with this 100%. Being a TC player, it sucks getting crushed by T1 when we fight them (which will be most of the season). What sucks more though, is not being on even footing with FA and SoS. Get some transfers so we can have even fights!

well we just lost a big guild to jq, but maybe after the leagues are over we might get back up with people….cant wait to see that dolly parade again XD [YAK]

Also, the OP mentioned he retries to queue every 15-20 mins. I don’t think that helps. If anything, it makes it worst.

one of our big na guilds…dont wanna mention their name…..but this is getting out of hand.
also yeah requeueing is not a good idea as it can backfire and u are stuck for even longer

Time to fix : Unsuspecting foe

in PvP

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

the problem with the balance is also that anet doesent separate gamemodes like spvp and wvw. the awarrior was always good in wvw, always important and most commanders ran it. now in spv the warrior was a mess and not viable at all. the buffs made him very very powerful in spvp due to having high stability and high cc while haveing massive healing and toughness and dps.
this has destroyed wvw class balance.

all u see is warrior/ guardian trains and then ele and necro.
mesmers are epic in 1v1 and roaming but in wvw right now u barely see any at all. reason: u nerfed our confusion which was the only multi target zerg wvw build and our retal builds into oblivion without giving us anything back in return. now im stuck as a squishy weak veilbot for the kitten warrior trains.
this is not fun and no balance at all!
or do u hate mesmers that much? ill be happy to give u all my 1v1 skills all my stupid clones and phantasms that die in 1 second in a zerg anyways, and get something back that works vs zergs!

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

Warrior forums are filled with awesome ideas to improve the class, meanwhile other forums are filled with whining, and its bleeding into our class Area.

Warriors never went on other forums and QQed and asked for nerfs to other classes, WE wanted improvements to ours.

actually they did. in mass to nerf confusion as confusion was actually strong vs spamming.
the problem i have with warriors is not in roaming or 1v1 spvp. i have a problem with the current godmode warriors in wvw. all u see is warriors and if u dont have a group with a lot of warriors u will be crushed. a group of mesmers vs a group of warriors is gonna be a guaranteed win for the warrior train.
the spvp warrior is ok and i understand the spvp warrior needed buffs badly as they were the worst of the worst before but the wvw warrior is absolutely not ok and the meta is getting out of hand.too much regen, healing, toughness,dps, cc and stability all at once.

Don’t know if trolling or serious…but I know how to beat them—consistently too.

well yeah a roaming warrior i can beat, but a whole zerg with warrior/guardians…..that is different. the zerg with more warriors wins atm as the warrior has been buffed to godmode. yeah mesmers on a 1v1, pretty tough to beat in a group….yeah since anet destroyed our core zerg build its pretty tough…..backline only and veil/portal bots

Mesmer is a great dueling class that can handle multiple enemies pretty well, and is quite useful in zergs as well, including stealthy missions like portals and veils. Compared to thieves or warriors, to roam with a mesmer and outplay opponents it does take a lot of practice. I couldn’t dare tackle more than 1 enemy with my mesmer until I was at around 100 tPvP matches with her.

tpvp is not wvw at all. try to face a group of warriors/guardians with a group of mesmers. its not gonna end good for mesmers. u will be stunlocked to death and can deal enough dmg to get past the ridiculous regen a warrior has. in a 1v1 its different. i have a different build for roaming and there it is the warrior that has a hard time, but in a zerg id say u can only stand at the backline and be a veil/portal bot for the godlike warriors

Guilds that GvG

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

agree with u very much on this. most of our gvg guilds contribute a ton of ppt every day. i dont even know when they have a gvg, because right after they are back on the field defending and capping. people that are against gvg seem to just not get the point of certain guilds that keep running into each other on the field, might wanna have a gvg.

my guild had multiple guilds we kept running into and had a lot of requests for a gvg after. but my guild doesnet do gvg.
so u know lets say this one guild runs into yours over and over and u smashed them quite some times. well maybe u surprised them or u had an advantage. then that guild wants a gvg where u dont have a tower to run back into and no surprise flank from nowhere.
so yeah there u can see different pushtactics and all that. it is also good to learn new tactics u can use out on the field. i really dont see why people hat gvg so much.

maybe anet asked them to play with their tag to prove that not all of their employees lose their temper like that. it is good to hear though that anet is not against gvg…now lets hope its not gonna take them another year for a big update. please anet improve guild content!

this is bullkitten and by putting t1 anf t2 into one league u turn my gaming experience into kitten. all i can do is running way from 70+ man zergs everywhere.
at least gieve us an option to not be part of the league at all so we can play wvw and not mass blobs stomping 15 people.

rank5 and rank6 will be stuck in those horrible blowout matches for weeks and that is not fun for us at all.

I just hope that all the guilds transferring to T1 servers will consider T2 servers instead

The T2 servers are the worst place to be of the 24 servers. You will never fight anything but T2 and T1 servers and you are guaranteed to fight all three T1 servers (currently TC has close to T1 numbers so every week for 7 weeks you will more thank likely be crushed). There is no incentive to transfer to a T2 server unless you like getting your kitten kicked. T1 should be it’s own tier, never has any server below T1 come close to not being a blow out since the new matchmaking system was implemented.

If players want to fight T1 servers, let them transfer to T1 servers. No-one else has the numbers to reasonably compete.

The new league system is better for most servers but it’s a disaster for T2 servers. Population imbalances are a monster of a problem in WvW and nothing has been done to address it. The new league system is going to guarantee is a significant problem beating down on a handful of unlucky servers.

Match variation doesn’t matter anywhere near as much as some semblance of match balance. I know that WvW by design is imbalanced and I know that Devon wants match variety but T2 servers don’t want T1 variety. To make an extreme example, putting the 24th ranked server against the 1st ranked server is technically variety. It’s not a good match.

T1 needs to be locked off in it’s own league.

yes please anet make this happen u are destroying 2 servers at least. can we please have to option to not be part of the league then? can we decline. i dont wanna be part of a league where we are getting smashed for 7 weeks straight. a lot of people are already not logging in anymore because of this.

well for all the ones that think gvg is hurting wvw, because of spots taken and stuff.

most of the gvg i know of (and im in t2) are either held at the end of a matchup, before reset and during times when a matchup is already decided and not much going on. if we are still fighting for garrison, those guilds are helping and part of the defense.
gvg never happen on reset night and i have not seen one during the first few days of the matcups. so our queues are not influenced by this.

Why is it that every match is a blowout?

in WvW

Posted by: selan.8354

selan.8354

I think the people suggesting that we just ignore the ppt in these blowouts are missing the problem entirely. I don’t give a kitten about the score, however the score conveys a lot of information. For example, if I log in and see that my server is getting blownout out in ppt by 300% I don’t even bother trying to WvW and just log back out. Not because I care about ppt per se, but because such a blowout indicates the types of fights I will be seeing. In the above example I can be sure that I’ll rarely find a fight where we aren’t outnumbered by a 2-1 margin. That type of fight isn’t fun. The game at that point simply isn’t entertaining.

And being on the other side of the equation isn’t any better. When we are the server blowing out the competition we get all the fair weathers coming out of the woodwork. Consequently what might start out as a fairly even fight usually ends when our zerg comes rolling in squash the enemy.

Either way, these blowout matches aren’t fun. The ppt is not a problem, merely a symptom.

very much this. fa for example is facing another t1 server and now with the new leagues coming we will be facing these blowout matchups for 7 weeks.a lot of guilds from other servers have left to t1 servers for the easy win. fa really doesnt care about ppt. if we are sitting on very little ppt and manage to destroy a massblob, we are still having fun. but bloodlust and 70 man zergs are not fun at all. if smaller groups could still make a difference like we used to, even a giant server would have to fight harder.
allow us to have an alliance server so we can at least compete without having to get transfers.

i like fa’s community. we all work great together and dont wanna have to turn into a mass blob server just because we are consistently forced to play vs t1(and tc…). also make defending keeps a little easier.

improve safety on walls(ele/necros can reach almost everything up there)
improve the keeps so a massblob for example has to run through a few chokepoints where traps (like eb jp traps) can be placed that could actually destroy a zerg. rightnow we cant even upgrade as whenever we manage to take a keep back. 5 min later a 70man blob pvd’s right back in and there is no way to stop them even with 4 ac’kittenting them.

So this can happen to them?

http://mos.millenium.org/na/matchups/map/1019

That’s a hard sell.

this wont happen to a t1 server. before jq got the mass transfers, we actually had fun matchups with them. now its just another sor giant. sor/bg/jq have received soo many transfers over the last few weeks that right now noone can even have fun when facing them.
please anet make t1 a league ore allow alliances. but 7 weeks like this is gonna kill all t2 servers and after that slowly every other server out there

yeah it is, but when we all moved up, we never intended to go to t1.ever… and now we have to fight t1 only for 7 weeks. we dont even have 1/3 of their population o.0. at least before we could have a chance to have at least 1 or 2 fun matchups….this league is an absolute disaster.

oh well, there is err tequatel ……and that acended gear farming.

I dont know about you guys but silver league seems like a lot of fun.

I’m enjoying my current match up and i know the rest of the servers are gonna bring a good fight to us. Sure maguuma, DB and sbi will dominate but the rest of the servers seems somewhat equal.

Sometimes you just gotta forget about ppt and make “have fun” your main goal, ppt comes 2nd =p

yeah but u get to fight some servers u can actually beat. all we will see is t1 in every matchup. t1… how can u have fun when u sit on 60 ppt and u will try to take a tower and the 70 man zerg keeps running over u? u cant havoc u cant take no nothing. there is always 70 people ther always day and night 24/7. every matchup will have a t1 server for us.
now i hope to get tc once in a while so we can at least try todestroy their doly parade again.

really just put the t1 in 1 league. i was on fa since the start and dont wanna move because we are forced to fight t1.

Honestly, this would probably be best.

League 1: BG, SoR, JQ
League 2: #4-#9
League 3: #10-#15
League 4: #16-#24

yeah but now anet destroyed 7 kitten weeks for us. no fun. u know facing a t1 server once in a while can be a challenge but those servers are soo stacked that they can fill every bl with 70 manmass blobs. i can siege up garrison all i want . that blob is in within 30 seconds then second gate another 30 seconds, than boom done, the rest of the bl will dissapear within 10 min max.
we never wanted to fight t1 never ever, as our guilds like good fights. no we are stuck with this and its terrible. we cant even beat tc at all.

3 Leagues of 8 servers doesn’t work because the total has to be divisible by 3.

it is not working fine at all. i dont wanna fight t1 only. 7 weeks of kitten blob balls all over the place.

this for 7 weeks
http://mos.millenium.org/na/matchups/map/1019

fa is my home since the start and we went through a ton of matchups being the underdog, but at least we could put up a fight. fighting a t1 server(and the new stacked tc) is u vs 70 man blobs pvdooring everything. they just steamroll everything. seriously it should be server 1-4 goldleague or give fa the chance to all transfer to a new server so we can at least play.

great ty anet for 7 terrible weeks coming for db and fa. ty very much!
7 weeks no fun
7 weeks suffering
7 weeks having nothing
7 kitten weeks

well no wvw for me for 7 weeks then. the past 4 weeks were a pain for us. we never wanted to fight t1 ever, then they changed the matchup system and we were forced to. now its the 4th time in a row fighting a t1 server. it is painful when u get steamrolled by 60+ every time u take 1 thing or attempt to.
really just put the t1 in 1 league. i was on fa since the start and dont wanna move because we are forced to fight t1.

Some ANET interfered with our GvG

Ahm, ok so i checked the vid and i can see the amount of insulting – coming from the players – starting with “just let the kittenes in the middle die” and continuing by calling him a kitten and telling him to play somewhere else.
Once again – you were insulting him because he wasn’t playing the game based on your rules.

I was working in an ISP center in the past and I must say it.. You people are the kind of ppl that the whole company laughs at.

Here we go again, someone who cant see the underlying issue. I have one thing for you to picture though, how are THEY supposed to play the game when the DEVs implement a crappy matchmaking system that resulted in them steamrolling their opponents?

It’s not about being the best, it’s about doing the best you can do in any given situations – if you didn’t learn that in your life then i don’t have anything else to say to you
-and also, it’s you who doesn’t want to understand :P people were insulting whoever interfered with their gvg game.
You can’t expect anything better from anyone else if you’re a piece of s- yourself ^^

Look, it’s really simple. There’s no other reason to be there behind the windmill EXCEPT to GvG, watch the GvG, or troll the GvG. He wasn’t there to GvG. He could have been there to watch the GvG. But no, if he came to troll the GvG then he’s going to be treated as a troll. Treating a troll as a troll is not disrespect. The fact that he also popped the Anet tag to represent the company while being a kitten is what takes it to a whole new level.

There is lot’s of reasons to be behind windmill. Farming mats and skill points, sneak patch to enemies supply camp. XD

Ok that was a bit mean, but either way. You should do to the skrit area. It’s better for gvg.

People do that when a server is ticking 500+ and leading by 200kish? I thought they quit and went to PvE.

this very much. on my server guilds fight during the entire week, but towards the end there is a few gvg happening and i think its a great addition in wvw. btw that gvg happened 1 hour before reset.

also the dev knew that this was a gvg area, why did he go there and why did he stand in the middle of it? people asked him t leave and he didnt move. so that that looks to me like trolling. who cares about other people doing gvg. why even try to ban it? all the guilds i know that do gvg are top guilds from our server, guilds that play a lot and help our bl’s and eb a lot. so they have a 15-30 min gvg so what? why go there to interfere?

Would be hilarious see www without GvG people. Two zone blobs would run around map and PvD.

The problem is people in GvG BELIEVE to be the only skilled people who know game mechanisms and playstyle. Always made me laugh hard and I always troll on battlefield these said GvG guilds when they get kitten hard. These GvG players achieve nothing and don’t play anyway better than guilds involved in WvW: basicly GvG is a more simple mode for newbies.

dude your complains about gvg dont really fit here at all.none in here has stated we are the more skilled players. our guilds take many many objectives every day. wedefend, we ninja we upgrade we cap stuff, we push zergs of the towers. we did not claim to be better than u guys ever. gvg is not a non stop thing at all. they have a few matches like that a week, so what?
my guild doesnt gvg as we are a small guild and also we focus on other things, but we do not judge the gvg zone. there is a zone where everyone goes to and is not interfering with anyone else. im also not complaining abut roamers that just run araound and gank stuff.

spvp is not gvg at all.different balance, different builds, smaller areas, stupid circles, different armor etc

The rule is kind of unclear. What constitutes “authorized personnel”? So any ANet employee can whip out his giant “I’m special” guild tag and start ordering people around?

He was justified in whipping it out when he was being slagged for just standing there.

For some reason, folks seem to think that having an anet tag (or just being a random player) is an excuse for them to be treated like kitten, and that they should just take it because they are employees. I’m glad he spoke up, regardless of the underlying incident, because folks were acting like entitled brats.

Hopefully this won’t derail any progress toward GvG, because using this as a reason to kitten about it IMO is lousy, and showing them support just shows support for the toxic behavior that’s become rampant in certain parts of the community these last few months expecially.

well he knew this was a gvg situation and btw it was almost reset, so yeah there are gvg, dolyparades, dance parties, duels going on. he knew that was a gvg and they asked him to lleave the middle and he acts like a spoiled brat. and then when they all yell at him for that he pops the tag to show, well igot power muahaha. i got the right to destroy your gvg. u have to stop gvg and play the game. well we are playing your game and yes we are allowed to have fun other wise this is not a game then.

I can kind of see his point though.

WvW has a limited amount of slots and there may have been a queue of players waiting to get in.

If there was no queue, then there is no reason for him to complain.

erm they have almost 600 ppt at the time….so i dont think there is a queue there a they own everything aready

Do they hire 14 year old basement virgins these days, or wtf is up with that behaviour?

Disgusting!

Why are you guys even replying to that “kill-trading” tard? Just ignore him and his crazy statements.

Back on the topic, what happened is just really, REALLY sad. You can’t put up you ANet tag and be such a moron, you just can’t; with that tag on you are representing your company and this was so kittening stupid, disrespectful and unprofessional. Not to mention he (and not the ones who were GvGing) was breaking the ToS himself as it was already said.

ANet you really need to answer for this, such behaviour from your very own employes is just unacceptable; under no circumstances you can deal with paying customers like that.
Seriously, WTF?

yeah seriously if that is how anet is and how they think about us, sry but thats just sad. are we gonna allow anet to treat us like this? is this what your company behaves like?im not some stupid player that is a minority and follows your boring handbook. i’d like the freedom to play a game the way i want and not the way u want. u put your stupid spvp arenas in our wvw because u dont wanna bother with actual wvw balance and u wanna force us to spvp. we are not that dumb u know!
