Nice answer, you'd probably be one who would do the noob calling. On the OP if you feel good about what you did don't worry about the name calling.

You'd just have to live with how people behave and expect that anything you do will not be appreciated. People will complain and will never to satisfied. I was called a noob by a player who wanted to buy an elite necro tome but didn't have enough cash so I only charged 4k and was called a noob for charging so low? Most people would charge more for elite tomes. Not to mention that giving free items to new players and some will call you a noob or a scammer with a hidden agenda which to me is very odd. Or they will complain that you didn't give them more.

I'd suggest to find another guild or alliance. Or next time to state what it is worth and then say your charging price on the item to avoid being called a noob for not knowing correct value of items.

Idiotic reply.

This game is played by people. Such interactions as the OP is talking about are between human beings not pixels. Kindness is still kindness, in a game or outside of it. You can still be a complete jerk, in a game or outside of it.

To the OP, get a new guild honestly, not worth putting up with morons in a game you play for fun and entertainment.

in my alliance we only accept people/guilds we consider acceptable to give things for free...

most of the things we do is for the fun of helping, other is for the challenge

with people like that in your alliance/guild you should quit or ask for that person to be kicked... bottom line... what everyone else before me said


not all people are jerks... about 30% is alright

Not that I haven't already, but when I read about things like this I seriously wonder about the intelligence level of GW players.

@ the OP, your Alliance members are jerks and if that kind of thing is allowed then I would say it's definitely time for you to find another.

Honestly, I was in a guild like this when I first started playing this game, I got sick of it and left. The Guild leader PM me ordering me to rejoin his guild and such and I basically said I dont like ur childish alliance, so I am gone, he got introduced to my ignor list after continued bantering.

Anyways I later joined my current guild, I joined shortly after creation of guild and Alliance and have been there now almost 6 month and became an officer. I have yet to have something like this happen in our alliance so not its not the Norm. In fact this past weekend I sold 5 whites to a alliance member for 8K cause thats all he had and really wanted White armor.

My best advice is, you dont like the way ur current alliance/guild is behaving leave find a new one. there are good people playing this game and the ellusive good alliance does exist.

Works well for us.
That's exactly how I run my Guild and my Alliance.

We have no problems anymore. Only when new players or Guild get invited, then there is a bit of an "adjustment".

As I recall, my alliance set a "market" day. And only on that day would we allow trade spam to flood alliance chat. It was usually on a Saturday or Sunday, and since I mainly did things more within my own guild, I rarely used the alliance chat during that time.

That being said, my alliance also had a strict "no drama" policy due to happenings that I won't get into.

For example, one member started begging for money, saying that a runner was holding his armor hostage because he didn't have the funds for the run. First of all, why he didn't ask me to do the run, I have no idea, but anyway, I ended up kicking him on the grounds that his spam was getting annoying, and it was irritating several members (that, and trying to get out of a run without paying is beyond low).

After that rule was instated, I was perfectly content with the conduct that Slayers Players [SYPR] allowed. They didn't care how good a player was, so long as they followed the "no drama" rule. Granted, there was also an unspoken level of excellence that was required, but even the lowest of members could at least keep that.

Wow, I miss playing this game, I hope I can move somewhere with a decent connection soon.

normally to avoid assholes I stay away from them. Otherwise I usually just say: "Well I could probably get 10k form most people for this so I will sell to you for 5k."

Using that method you wont get the dickheads lol'ing at you

This is why my guild only consists of people I personally know. I don't keep alliances because I have no power over the guilds of others. At least I know in my guild, anything that goes wrong, if ever, will be handled by me in the fairest way possible.

You sold him a cheap white dye and got nothing for abuse for it. That's a true sign of them only looking for attention. You do something nice for a stranger in this game and that's pretty much the standard reply you get. This is why people stick to the rule of only helping people they actually know.

And then you'd probably come whining aswell when someone bagged you out.

A game is meant for enjoyment, not to put up with crap. The OP came here because he was unhappy about the childishness of people in his alliance; and wanted to discuss it.

You're probably one of those people who act childishly to put yourself higher than others in your own narrow perception of things. Grow up.
