The Grotto is the "snob" area where all those people who "think they are cool" hang out. Alot of people in fissure armor like to stand afk for hours while they are really at work because they think people will see their armor and think they are good. It's kind of pathetic.

It's a popular "hang out" area for people with expensive armor...and for people who want said expensive armor. People who know each other IRL, people who've met each other online, etc. just come here to "talk". The conversations here get on the retarded side pretty damn often, though so I try to avoid going there as much as possible.

It's actually a typo. The real name is Moron's Grotto. Hence the denizens of it.

I go there every once in a while to Ice Skate and to harass male warriors that want to do the Humpty Dance on female mesmers wearing FoW. It's funny how doing the warrior dance behind another male warrior will make them exit town within 5 minutes, guaranteed.
Kind of turns the tables, eh? Last edited by Jetdoc; Aug 08, 2006 at 06:38 PM // 18:38.. |

There is even a Marhan Grotto club.
There was a thread in the screenshot forums with pics and all. I'm looking for it but cannot find it. |

Marhans grotto has become a "chat room" for some people. There are a few others, like pre-searing Ascalon dist one. I've also seen a few regular chat groups in Ashford Abbey.
I suppose it's more fun than chatting in Yahoo, or Alta Vista, some of the more popular chat sites. |

For the most part, people in Grotto think pretty much that. 15k or FoW armor. Not talking abuot anyone in particular, just the average conduct you should expect in Grotto. |

ermm try watching ppl in the "REAL" world...its more interesting and you have less chance of getting "square eye syndrome" + there is the added bonus that you might meet "real" girl !!
sarcasm ftw seriously tho, playing a game is one thing, letting a game be your life is another Last edited by The Admins Bane; Aug 08, 2006 at 11:53 PM // 23:53.. |
