Too bad PvErs use this faction to buy Zkeys to fund their shiny weps, then proceed to whine about hard UAXing is

gotta tough it out - either play RR or do what chocobo does -
EDIT : chocobo, noone resigns for you because you dont for them.
so while you win100% of your matches, they are all winning 10x as many by saving 10 minutes per game.
You cannot win

No one knows me, they don't resign because they have the same plan as me. Everytime I roll red I get the stupid Happy RR day! As a subtle hint that I should resign. Never seen anyone say it when they get red, nor has anyone who got red actually resigned. Seems like a normal day to me just + 1000 more scrubs.

They either ban hundreds (thousands?) people, or they let it slide since they're scrapping hero battles anyways.

I say they do the latter.

would very easily be thousands

The big question really is ... why are we so dumb that this only happens with HB?!?!?
Everything outside of of JQ and FA could work the same way!

hah I know what you mean, when I get the Happy RR day I either don't reply and roll them or go "what's rr" then proceed to say how retarded it is that I have to resign then they usually call me a noob then leave.

It`s true. Now that the trend has started, it could happen in RA.
In fact, I want to see that happen.

If they haven't done anything about manipulated finals in HB monthlies, I doubt they'd do anything about this.

Also, for those of you who insist that rr didn't work: Try tanking down to 600 rating to do it.

To those suggesting that you can make off better by not resigning as red, get a clue. Here are a few facts:

1) Your rate of gaining title points/keys is less than that of red resigners.

2) By staying on as red against smart red resigners, you will not reduce the rate at which they gain keys.

3) Not resigning as red is strictly dominated by resigning as red.

If you continue to believing you are "beating the system" that's fine, but to be quite honest, the joke is on you. I really don't feel like putting in more effort to explain more than this.

Shuuda · Oct 10, 2009, 08:06 AM // 08:06

Ban them. When I can enjoy awesome forum drama!

Zahr Dalsk · Oct 10, 2009, 08:07 AM // 08:07

Haha, awesome. Wish I knew about this sooner >_>

Don't feel like I'm beating the system, feel like I'm pissing off a bunch of RRers.

This.

Also, a GM informed me by email that nothing said in a private message is grounds for a ban, so I've taken the opportunity to privately harass RRers who quit when they're blue and I don't resign

funny because it's true. when i dominated them 20-0 they were better off resigning.

so many people trying to run healer's boon or roj monks, heavy hexing(lol pnh monk) and the select couple that had decent builds that just weren't good. lern2cancel frenzy people

Zahr Dalsk · Oct 10, 2009, 09:01 AM // 09:01

I'm amused that my half-assed builds (I grabbed three heroes at random) seem to be able to beat roughly half the people who stay and fight...

You only piss off RRers that don't really understand how HB or RR works. Smart RRers just leave and laugh at you, which admittedly is a small proportion. .

I mean, I guess. If that's your thing/fetish. Congratulations. You can harass noobs. Yo momma must be so proud.

wilderness · Oct 10, 2009, 09:14 AM // 09:14

I took part in RR day. A few free keys to help push up my zaishen title? Why not?! If I'm banned for it I'll qq a little then get over it. The only reason I'm still here is that I've got all OCD over r12 Z.

With the amount of people in game still in possession of stacks of armbraces, I don't think Anet care as much as some of you think they do.

If they leave instantly then that's no time lost, and I still get my win, and for those that don't they go into a rage I fail to see your point?

As harassing well that's just lol, they are harassing me for asking me to RESIGN in an ARENA

and call me a noob when I don't, these people are no better than those asking for 5k cash for the elite armour they need in Kamadan and I have no sympathy.

kupp · Oct 10, 2009, 09:59 AM // 09:59

Anet won't do anything about it, period. Because:

a) it's their fault the system is made in this way and is able to be abused like this.
b) HB will be gone in the very near future.
c) The number of players involved in this is way too many already for any kind of personal consequences.

To those that talk about banning people: does anyone remember the fiasco when anet gave a 2 week ban instead of a permanent ban to all the botters doing the kurzick HFFF? Do you honestly think they'll ban people for this?

Also id they'd want to stop this, they can simply add Dishonor to HB.

That's because the people who RR are found in the 999-960'ish ranks, above that you'll start playing with real pvp'ers. Way to be a dickhead btw, people like you is exactly why I bring a 4 healing monks team and some speed boosts. If you're on red, I take the shrine and if you don't leave you'll be getting an attriction battle for the next 20 minutes. Also lol at the notion that HB is pvp, I'd consider FA and JQ pvp a lot faster than that:|

Btw in 4ish hours yesterday while playing my 2 accounts simoultaniously, I made 115 zkeys and 95k in gold. Got my r3 zaishen and a lot of free money wich I'll be getting till 17:00h, and I LOVE free money! <3

FireWhale · Oct 10, 2009, 10:59 AM // 10:59

come on anet...pull a valve.
