Ah yes, the new hangout for the guys who used to charge that much for a run from Ascalon City to Piken Square. I take a certain sadistic pleasure in shutting them down... wait, now I'm a jerk...

I had a person tell me they were going to sue me, for using a name similar to theirs.. I laughed and they continued on, saying that they had, had the name copyrighted for some stupid book they had written... mind you, this name is slapped all over google, i mean, come on, babylon isnt an unheard of place..

So I laughed some more and this idiot continued on for an hour, and eventually, I got tired of it enough to tell him some new names he could choose for his next character and er.. they weren't locational.

Mine? oh, it's not funny, but he is clearly one of the ones that could scare you...
and if your offended by cursing, or racism, please don't look, all I edited was the name, like he'll be back though
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/a...d=11511253 08
well might as well try to remember some of it..
it was kind of early on a weekend, my now deleted mesmer had the misfortune of joining the jerk's team for DS[I can't spell the missions name ], the mission after getting to lion's arch. Well, since this guy, I've had a short temper with these kind of people, ones that curse when it's clearly not needed. When Benji died, like always, he was quite pissed, cursed to the point where my eye brows were twiching and having me wonder why someone else hadn't reported him, or even why his guild hasn't removed him yet. Well, he somewhat cools off by the time we get to the temple. It's mostly fine up to the point where we're done killing the undead, he curses/complains about me not doing anything[I can't blame him on that, I can't do mesmers well], another person in the group kind of is like him, but isn't as bad, he tells us to keep going. After we talk to Dorin[don't remember his name either ], one of the 2 tells us not to talk to him, as we're leaving the temple for Danas, the jerk finally looses it because the other four of us are asking him to stop complaing in various ways, and the sentence in the picture happens as just about everyone leaves in fustration.
this was a while ago, somethings may be a bit fuzzy
and it isn't the guy I didn't black out, it's just the same langth<.<

I had an interesting encounter with a rather idiotic MM just now.

I was looking to get my MM to the temple from Senji's Corner, and I get in this party that has another MM. Generally this is not a problem, because with the new "minion cap" there are plenty of corpses to go around on a long PvE mission. I probably should have been scared off when I noticed that he was level 19, but I foolishly assumed that he knew what he was doing.

When we first enter battle it becomes obvious that (1) he thinks he's a tank and (2) he's not wearing max armor. Anyways, he dies in a few seconds and starts whining about how the monks didn't heal him and how the enemy NPCs spiked him etc. while I raise a Flesh Golem from his corpse. When he gets resurrected he casts Verata's Gaze on my Golem and suicides into the next mob. Rinse, wash, and repeat and I never, ever get a Golem fighting for me for more than 10 seconds.

Grrr at MM n00bs...

Considering that you can only get Verata's Gaze way, way late in the Prophecies campaign, it's quite interesting that a level 19 would be using it.

Tonight I was doing a 50/50 ecto run with a 55 monk and 2 ectos dropped for him. Then a req. 8 gold storm bow dropped for me a req 10 eternal sheild dropped for him. After the run, he refuses to give me an ecto and tells me to give him the storm bow. He then tells me I can "go f*** myself" and puts me on ignore. I can't stand the dishonesty and immaturity that I run into in this game.

lol very funny, i guess he wanted all drops for himself - he should've made a post in all channel: 'looking for ss/sv, 100%loot for me'

i always ask twice what kind of run we're doing before spawning in UW - so far, all ppl were ok to me, and i've been ok to them

Odd, true, but he could have gotten someone to run him arround the Shiverpeaks or (more likely) unlocked the skill with faction and then bought it from ony skill trader.

Or perhaps he captured it from Verata himself in Kessex Peak, just a short jaunt from Lion's Arch.

Of course someone with as much knowledge of the game as it takes to do such a thing would likely be a better player (and have max armor) but you never know.

Have you tried to get it. It is the "Villany of Garath" quest, same place, same people, differnet boss. I doubt he got it that way.

Even if he got it that way, he still qualifies for a jerk.

reason 1) Gaze is a 2 step process, step 1 releases it from it's master making it hostile to all for the 5 second recharge, step 2 binds it to you basically he is stealing energy.

reason 2) right out of KC you get max armor for 1.5, money and supplies drops like rain, there is no reason not to have max armor.

I would have wispered him to knock that crap off, and if he didn't announce that 1 of us needs to go. I would consider that a rage quit reason, especially if I am wearing the MM armor.

Now I should have been here.

The first time I used my MM after the nerf, I saw the 10 minions as a challenge and not a cap, so I was taking all the bodies. Now at that point it would have been nice for the other MM to point that out rather than rage quit. Then durring a converstion with the monk about the MM that quit, he mentioned the new nerf had an absolute 10 minion cap. Then it was like "opps"

I got 2 more from last night.

To preface both, I made a new character, a necro, who just came out of pre-sear. My new necro is at lvl 8.

Story the First:
I decided to check out the Ascalon arena in hopes that it would be something fun and, hopefully, the losers that were there back in the day had since moved on.

I get into the battle and notice that my team consists of a lvls 8, 10, 9, 8. The other team consists of lvls 11, 11, 10, 10. For starters, I think the game should kick them out after they get to lvl 11 but that is not the real issue. I noticed that their necro (lvl 11) was using life transfer (lame sauce) and their warrior (lvl 11) was also using an elite (don't remember which).

Needless to say we went down fast. I say, because I get a little pissy about dorks like that, "real nice, a lvl 11 with life transfer...lame" and I get back "stfu, I pwn."

I replied with "that is pretty stupid in the Ascalon Arena." To which my teammate answers "that is what the Ascalon Arena is all about! Its not lame its awesome!"

Feel free to make up your own mind on who is the bigger jerk, the lvl 11 jerk or the jerk who defended him/her.

Story the Second:
I came back from doing a quest and I saw a guy spamming all chat with trade messages about a poisoners bow string for 1.2k I didn't really look very carefully but assumed he was buying (his WTS used a symbol instead of an s so that he could spam it in all chat). I pm'd him about selling him one and he was kind of a jerk, not too bad but kinda. Usually when people spam trade items I don't deal with them because I hate having the all chat filled with trade messages...but again I decided to say something. Our dialogue went something like this:

Me (in trade channel) "WTS poisoner's string 500g"
Jerk (pm) "you are such a noob. it is worth more than that" *profanities*
Me (pm) "I can sell at whatever price I am happy with "
Jerk (pm) "you are such a noob it is worth way more than that you loser"
I copied his message and put it in trade channel (except that mine was for 500g). I did have a string and would have sold it at 500 with no qualms.
Jerk (pm) "Stupid n00b you can't even copy my message correctly. You know that you are ripping yourself off right?"
Me (pm) "how am I getting ripped off? I can sell at whatever price I want as long as I get what I ask for I am happy"
Jerk (pm) "stfu noob, that string is worth 2-4k on guild wiki. you are trying to rip yourself off and you can't even do it. Trust me I have been trying to sell mine for 30 minutes at 1.2k. you are an idiot n00b. Why don't you by mine and then sell it so that you can rip yourself off even more"
Me (pm) "I am the idiot? you have been trying to sell the same item with the same price for 30 minutes. This market is obviously saturated and cannot sustain a 2-4k selling price, or even a 1.2k selling price"
Jerk (pm) "you don't know what you are talking about, n00b. there is a green bow now with psn so that is why I can't sell my string"
Me (pm) "So how is 500g a rip off if you have wasted 30 minutes and haven't been able to sell yours for 1.2?"
Jerk (pm) "Its not like I don't have an xbox 360 and have even been playing this, n00b"
Me (pm) "?"
Jerk (pm) "whatever, noob, try and sell yours for 500g. No one will buy it. I am going to sell mine to the merchant anyway"
Me (pm) "soo, if you are going to sell your to the merch, how am I ripping myself off by selling for 500?"
Jerk (pm) *profanities*
Me (pm) "you are pretty funny with all the cuss words"
Jerk (pm) "your mother screems that at me when I .......*more profanities*
Jerk (pm) "later n00b. I am off to gvg now. retard"
player jerk is ignoring you

Now, I know that I was also being a jerk, but I think it was for a maginally good cause. And, of course, I was still a little burned about the losers in th arena. Also around this time there was one person who sat in the Ascalon d3 for about 45 minutes spamming "I am new can anyone give me some gold?" Everytime I went back to cash in on a quest reward, he was there...I hate beggars.

This is what happens everytime I take a character out of pre-sear. I forget how stupid most people are in game and then it is such a huge shock when I get to Old Ascalon, the jerk capital of all Tyria (except maybe for Drok's, the Grotto, anywhere in the desert, and THK).

sorry it was so long and for all the anger expressed on my part
