Well, I just don't unterstand it. If I couldn't have changed it, fine, but I would have toned down the Volume, and set the activation higher, and the echo would have been gone. They just had to tell me, cause I didn't notice it.
I was in TS the other day, and everything seemd to be fine, different Ts-Server seem to have other settings.

The average newbie, who joins a TS, has no clue. Their conversation goes like this:

Quote:

All I say is; Don't take it personally. If all moderators were so friendly as in this example, there would be no more communications left in the TS.

got my first jerk story for you just yesterday...
i had just recently bought my first two parts of the 15k armor. with nothing really to do i decided i could go and get the new armor parts infused. i got to moladune and looked for a group that was either doing the mission or was just on a infusing run. after a few minutes a group had formed, we also took two ranger with us who wanted to cap barrage shot. of we go, everything goes smooth and somone of the party reaches the seer. after killing a few of the mobs all of the sudden one member of the party is just gone. we concluded he might have had an erorr007 since there was no hint before that this guy (further named as jerk) would have a reason to leave. we finished infusing and at least one ranger got the skill, (the other was to slow).
so after completing the mission you find yourslf in thunderhead keep. i saw that i havent previously done the bonus for that mission so i searched for a group. i sepcifficaly searched for a grop doing the mission with the bonus. i get an invite of a group, and see that the jerk form before is in the group. still asuming he just had an disconnect i dont confront him about leaving the group. so before the mission starts i say again over the team channel that i want to do the bonus too and nobody objects. now i have to say that i dont know the bonus for that mission, so when we were in the fort to defend the king i asked where the bonus for the mission is. someone of the group told me what has to be done. after we stopped a few of the first attackers i wanderd around looking for the torch to light the signals without finding it, then, all of the sudden jerk screams at me to come back up to help defend the king. i pm him too keep cool and that im looking for the bonus thing, which gets him furious and he shouts at me, that we are just doing the mission and he dosent want to have to do it again because of a noob like me. i politely told him that i just agreed to go with the group because i wanted to to do the bonus and nobody said something aginst it.he replied by telling me if i didnt like just doing just the mssion i could just leave. because i was anoyed by the style of his messages i asked him why he left the group in the moladune mission before. he answered, that he never before has left a group and that this was his first mission today and im talking bullshit. after throwing some rather unpleasant insults at me, he put me on ignore. while this conservation took place over pm someone else apperently must have lightend the signals beacause we get overrun by a horde of muursat a bit later. as it becomes obvious that we will get defeated, jerk uses the the team chat to accuse me of messing up the mission and being an noob and whatever. and then of course he leaves...

we get taken back to the city and two other players leave. i explaine to the rest of the group what has just happend, and we agree to go for it again. because i was feeling a little bad for the other guys i even agree to just do the mission, we pick up a few other players and complete the mission without a problem.

its really strange what kind of people you can meet in games like this. but i should have been warned about that jerk, because his name was f*** you, just written a little differently so that it wouldnt get censored. *sigh*

Here is a story about a guy who was a jerk only to himself.

My friends and I like to go to FOW or UW with balanced parties. So one day we were gathering a group together and needed a few more, including a couple of monks. For some odd reason, at least 3 of us, maybe 4, can't remember, were playing rangers.

So a monk joins our group and sees we have a lot of rangers in the group, as well as a necro, and assumes we are a b/p party. But we weren't. I was going with my favorite FOW build with 3 traps, throw dirt and oath shot, while the other rangers were going with various builds, some with barrage as elite. This monk then asks if we are b/p and I said no, I was a trapper. So then this monk, without asking further, assumed that all the rangers in the group were trappers, told us we were stupid to go to FOW as a trapper group, that it couldn't be done, that trappers belonged in UW, and then left the group.

Now, this monk missed an excellant opportunity to visit FOW with a really good and together party. We have done FOW countless times already, breezing through the various quests, without resorting to book tricks, and usually with few or no problems. Instead, this monk assumed we were hopeless losers attempting to do something he thought would be impossible to do.

I couldn't just let it go at that, so I whispered him that he was making a big mistake, that we have done FOW as a group many times before. Uh-uh, he insisted that we were stupid, that we were lying to him, that we were going to get killed in no time in FOW. I could only respond "but why would we lie?".

Well, we got another monk and had a great time with lots of shard drops!

I didn't get angry, didn't curse, I just told her that I wanted to know. She tells me that if this was my first time and I'm lvl 12 that I'm a pathetic noob. She goes on saying that I probably get that alot. I kept my cool and just waited thill it was over, and she kept going on and on about it till it was over.

I'm getting second thoughts about this game. No one I play with seems to care about anyone but themselves, I help out people new to the game (well, newer than me). I sometimes give out my extra weapons I've found to newer players, sometimes other things, I answer question, help with the occasional quest (if I can). They're all arrogant jerks that are full of themselves and/or they want to steal all your stuff.... this game is starting to suck....

Hmm, your post is a bit old now, so I don't know if you will see this reply, but you shouldn't get discouraged by the not so nice players out there. Find some friends, join a nice guild, and the game will be much different for you.

By the way, is it possible to communicate with each other during a movie sequence? Sounds like this jerk was telling you off during the cut scene, but I didn't know that could be done.

Empirism · Apr 11, 2006, 03:14 PM // 15:14

The only time you need to skip a movie is if your groups being attacked and totally over powered. A mission in the desert has an easily run first part but you need to skip the movie or you pretty much all die.

I was in a pre>Post-searing party the other day and I was the only one that pressed ot skip the movie, but id forgotten it and had a good time watching it, so dont let jerks like that put you down.

Don't forget Minions. Through most cutscenes you are not in a position that you are being attacked, but it ocassionally happens. I don't mind the cutscenes and don't ask people to skip them unless there is a minion master present with live minions.

No doubt, especially during Orozar farming. I told them to skip the cutscene. Not because my minions would die (of which there were too many to count), but because they would die because I vowed to ragequit and the minions would have wiped them out.

I'm not sure if it even works (minions going hostile during cutscene), but it scared the noobs into skipping the scene. Too bad they dropped the bridge and we all died anyways.

What a jerk.

If you advertise yourself as running for tips, that means you get no say at all as to whether you get paid.

There should be a formal recognition of sorts for people that manage to mutilate the English language in so brutal a fashion.

There should be a Nobel Prize for exemplary contributions to the fields of Logic and Reasoning, such as one that the quoted post has accomplished.

There should be separate districts in the game for legendary individuals that have made names for themselves by virtue of their contributions in the above two, and other similar categories. It will make the virtual world a much less stressful place for the commonfolk that may not be as well endowed in intelligence and ability.

Odd, they take things like that seriously?? If I said "Running to Azeroth for 2k!" would I be having the same problem?

Original starter for another stories from mine which I got yesterday before posting this thread.

Title: Ragequitter

JERK TYPE: ELEMENTALIST/NECRO
STATUS: PVP CHARACTER, RAGEQUITTER
LOCATION: RANDOM ARENA DURING THE BATTLE AND AFTER

SITUATION OF THE JERK: False hack caller, report to Anet for nothing to prove it and broken grammar.

STORY:

Random Arena....... A place to make fun in the arena against other players where they do some crazy build which you can laugh when it doesn't work well or dead cry when it hurts. I wanted to test a ranger build (Which I call it CasterHate for some reasons....maybe only 2-3 skills you'll see

). In my team, we were: 2 Rangers (Me and Poison), 1 Necro (Blood) and 1 Ele(Earth). The other team was: 2 Warriors (W/Mo and W/R), 1 Mesmer (E-Denial) and 1 Ele (Lightning and JERK). The arena was the kryta beach. The battle start, we stayed in group and we say the warriors plit (to make a pincer in the corner). Our Earth Ele saw the trick (same for me) and ask to us to stay in group. This is the converstion/action we did (To make faster):

Earth: I rid those warriors myself
Me: The necro will stay for your help
Necro: This is what I thought :P
Ranger: Im using Apply poison
Ranger: Im using penetrating shot on mesmer
Me: Im using Melandru Arrow
2-3 seconds later mesmer died by poison and bleeding

Air use rez sig
I interrupt the rez Air with Distracting shot.

Public Chat
Air: YOU NOOB TO INT MY SIG INTED MY SPELZ!!!
the 2 warriors died at the same time (talk about timing)
Air use Lightning orb
Me, In public chat: I'm using Concussion shot on Air
Air Left

Flawless Victory

The second battle was cool, a good 6 minutes of battle. I was really a good game. Third was stupid, We log, 2 of the other team left letting a ranger and a ele alone against us (Feel pity for them). Fourth Battle, to fast for nothing. Its was like 25 sec and we had finished.

The last one........... We got 1 monk, 2 warriors and 1 Ele. The Ele was the same before.

We used the same tactics to fight against the warriors (always work like a charm) and me with the ranger we shoot down the monk. I switch the target to see what going on and I saw Chain Lightning. Concussion + Debilitating shot. Ouch!!!... Dazed, Bleeding because of Melandru Arrow and he was under an enchantment too so lot damage and -10 Energy. The monk died short after by overdose of poison and bleeding and again, The necro and the Earth Ele killed these warriors. Air begins to use rez sig (Again). Same old Interrupt trick and Left again with:

Air: YOU NOOB, YOU DONT KNOW HOW PLAY GW, FAGGOT 15k DRUID BITCH SLUTTY MOMMA RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOER. (I was with my PvE Female Ranger so I didn't want to create another char for PvP).

Me: Watch out what do you say mister.

Victory Party!!!!!

Few minutes later, I talked with the group which I was to share our builds and the tactics we did. I got a whisp... from that Jerk

Air: UR REPORTED TO ANET FO HAX ME

Me: Ok, so what, got SS? No? too bad
Me: I got SS report for those who wont get respect to anyone.
Air: LOLZ!!! NOOB!!!!! U CANT DO SS!!!!! ITS NECRO (/shame)
Air: I SHALL TELL EVERYONE YOU HAX AND BAN 4EVER TO GW!!!!!
Air: NOOB!!!!!!! (about 15-20x in a row... or in a second XD)

/screenshot
/Report

Got Email about I get reported and banned for 2 month for minor hacking (cheating). I send an Email with the SS I got to see what happens.I received an Email earlier to see I was no more banned.

/VICTORY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit: Why the stories are almost the same with me?

Blablabla... HAX/NOOB....../report.... The End

lord_seafood · Apr 13, 2006, 02:44 AM // 02:44

Didn't think I'd have to post in here again. This one happened in Abadons Mouth Mission, myself and two guildies got a pug with 4 people from another guild and one other. Anyway the bits underlined in red were what made me classify this guy as a jerk, and that he had the nerve to try it again after acting clueless.

Nothing in comparision to some of the other stories on here, but it sure pissed me off none the less, enough to make the 3 of us ragequit.

What a jerk.

When you advertise "runs for tips", you can´t expect that everyone tips you since you gave them a choice, either they tip you or they don´t.

But I must say that the way he responded you qualifies him as a jerk.

In my opinion anyone who uses the term n00b is a jerk. That word is with no doubt the word in GW I HATE THE MOST

Never been called a n00b, will NEVER call anyone a n00b.

EDIT: Didn´t see that Kakumei allready had said pretty much what I said, except the last part of my post.

Ention · Apr 13, 2006, 06:21 PM // 18:21

Oh I know a jerk alright....may not be as mean or as bad as others, but he still t'd me off pretty bad.

We'll start at the beginning:

Me: SS LFG Oro farming!
*gets accepted*
Me: hey guys!
Jerk Leader:we ready to go?
Me: yep
*Newb leader heads out*
Jerk ele: you know how to spinal shivers?
Me: I'm using a different build, but don't worry, I've tried it out
Jerk Leader: What kind of SS doesn't bring Spinal Shivers!?
Me: I don't, but like I said, I'm doing something else.
Jerk Leader: ok fine...
*head off to our first mob, we all die except Jerk leader and Jerk ele*
Jerk leader: Lets get a new SS....this one is doing crap...

RIGHT IN MY FACE!

like its my fault we all died....what a load of idiots. Sorry....it's just that people like this who think they're better than everyone else make me mad
