It's not about serious business, it's about the fun factor and a somewhat more enjoyable community. Because you know, lots of people play this game to have fun without annoying others or getting annoyed by others. I'm talking Chinese now right?

It's just not cool, not funny.

No, you are talking Belgiumeese. Are the waffles really that great there?

I guess i just cant relate to your opinion. Its nothing bad against you. I just don't get bent out of shape that easily. Some people get in a tussy more easily than others. I can accept that. I can also have fun exploiting it also.
I do like to read the QQ threads however.

And its never funny to the person getting annoyed. Thats what makes it so funny to the person doing the annoying.

When a person lets someone get to them and press their buttons, that person is letting someone have a power over them. Meaning, the button pressers can effectively control someone elses mood.

Solution: take that persons power away by not letting them get to you. If i don't let people get under my skin, then in turn, i don't let anyone have power over me.

Now that I think of it, you might be right. We're known to look for sollutions , fairness and cooperation, often choosing for the underdog even though our government doesn't always reflect those things hehe. And from time to time we have a nutcase who goes on a killing spree, but that's part of western society I guess.

Yes they are, but you should check some of our chocolate out too.

ok i see. that makes sense. In America we thrive off of conflict and picking on people. Funny how culture can be so obviously diverse.

I cant believe we have a 9 page thread over a friggin in game sound. They should change it to a whine so that everyone would hear the nonsense of this thread. eesh, dont like it? Turn sounds down? Go to different town? Go play in the street?

Another idea...quit hanging for 15 minutes like a loser in Kamadan, and either play the game or turn it off and do something else.

Lol! Some of you guys are so afraid of confrontations and your proposed solutions to the problem is to simply run away!

"OMG! A spamming YETI! Let's..."

1. Flee from the game
2. Flee from the town
3. Flee from the district
4. Turn off your sound quick!
5. All of the above

At least have the guts to make the tough decisions to fix the actual problem than to run away from the game.

On the other hand, if ANet doesn't fix this and more Yetis join the fun, some players may actually heed your advice...

Thats no problem they have a right to be there and hawk their wares like everyone else. I usually draw yetis around me because I have a mini yeti and they come stand around it to contrast with the size. It never bothered me one bit. I just drink some eggnog sell my wares and go about my business. They are not hurting anyone by using their tonic. Stop hating on other players and screwing up the game with your QQ.

Not if their intention is to annoy people, point. If they have good intentions, I'm sure they can sell their warez without spamming yeti sounds.

Trade Spam messeges in local chat were seen as annoying, Anet made some adjustments. Didn't they adjust the mini Kunavang sound too?

I hope a yeti sound 'nerf' is in the making.

This is where your position is flawed. You can not know the motives of others, YOU are assigning a malicious intent where none exists. YOU are saying hey this "guy is a griefer what a jerk" when in reality its some 12 year old kid who is like wow this tonic is cool what a blast. The problem exists only in your mind. There is not a squad of evil yeti terrorizing GW.

Cut the crap. The 12 yo kid can enjoy his tonic without (others) hearing the sound too. That's all I ask, everybody happy, except for the tards.

I saw enough of those yetis in spamadan. Where have you been last months, the moon? Or perhaps you're one of them?

The argument goes both ways. You cannot possibly know they are NOT doing it with malicious intent.

Avoid absolutes, it makes you seem absolutely foolish. Your last comment reminds me of the penguins in the movie Madagascar: 'You didn't see anything.'

Don't start with the strawman garbage by misrepresenting what I said. No where did I say there are no Yeti's in Kamadon so don't argue a point I'm not making because that just fails miserably. And the bull about me being "one of them" is a stupid attempt at trying to vilify me without making a point. Stop debating like a child and try to logically present your side of the issue. Problem is your side of the issue is nothing more than mindless QQ, thus the mindless responses.

The only thing foolish here is the people making up crap about other players using tonics.

So you are saying Yeti spamming sound in town and annoying surrounding players do not exist? Right...

lol. I don't really care either way. I've been playing with the sound off for some time now and have been listening to other music instead of ingame music.

I'm here to point something out to Anet, for the good of the community and the fun factor. I don't need to debate with you. You're helping the case though.

You can say whatever you want, I will never support griefing behaviour. On the contrary, I think the GW world is better off without them.

I have high hope Anet will fix this thing, in the meantime I put down the volume of my speakers when needed like I always do. It's not about me, it's about Anet giving another sign that such behaviour is not encouraged.

Logical sollution: a minor tweak to the yeti sound so others can't here it. Problem solved, everybody happy except for the griefers.

Lol! That is certainly one way to approach the problem. Sure, ban everyone else from the game, who dont like the annoying sound.

Shadowspawn X, your point has already been argued and proven wrong about 3 pages before.

Seriously, if it's just QQ. Then consider this: every complaint, about balance, exploiters, leechers, bots, inactivity, lag issues etc. is QQ, it's all a game, all you have to do is turn off GW. No one is forcing you to go through with it.

Get a grip.

What I am saying is the whole theory of someone purposely going into Kamadon with a Yeti tonic and making as much noise as possible just to annoy others is not happening.

The problem is you are reducing the players who use their tonic to a bunch of malicious griefing jerks. That is not true nor is it fair to demonize those players to get your way.

I agree with you Dmitri. It's just part of the game. There are some quick fixes that you can do to combat this yeti noises. Yet peoples wants A-Net to bend under pressures and the community's voices to solve this problem. I mean, we're not paying A-Net monthly fee.. why should they even consider using their times and resources to solve this? Also from reading at some of the posts, some of you actually find the noises not too annoyning .
