pehaps a little signal by their name like when someone calls a target?.. did Anet hear that or should i speak a little louder?

EverBlue · Jul 19, 2005, 02:14 PM // 14:14

You know what ANet should do? Whenever someone draws on the map, a little icon in the shape of a penis should appear beside the person's name. Wouldn't that just tick you guys off.

Ultimate_Gaara · Jul 19, 2005, 02:19 PM // 14:19

i could think of a few coments to make to someone with that little icon next to their name, but ill keep them to myself...

well an icon next to the name isnt a bad idea, but anything other than a you know what...

No, I just used that for this topic, which is now a 5 page argument that people have carried on over scribbles.

You forgot to put in Jesus who died for our sins.

Yes. How significant are these 2 inch scribble drawings on Guild Wars in your life?

Are you really so naieve or just playing flat out ignorant with the rediculous argument of oranges and a banana? This is flat out a stupid argument. Some kid drawing a shlong while someone else is trying to draw up a strategy/ route is flat out childish and ignorant and should be banished to the Romper Room Porn server.

Do you people have a list of things to bitch about next? You would go so far as to report someone for having fun while they play a game? Grow up, get a sence of humor, and get over it.

You ever try to draw a female organ? It's just not as good. You can try and try but it will still always look like anything BUT the organ.

Why am I not surprised that someone with the handle "Nad" would approve of drawing shlongs on the minimap?

It's a matter of civility and respect for other folks and a direct reflection of the maturity content of the artiste.

Perhaps it's a matter of compensation, where drawing on the minimap allows expression of something larger than real life as awarded...

"Dan" was taken. If you're really offended by a crappy sketch of a wang on your screen you might as well shoot youself in the face now, or you could start living in a bubble down by the river.

Way go Go, Nad.

It's not offensive to me. Six years in the military tends to numb you to far greater than that. It's flat out childish, annoying and immature, though. There's a time and a place to express your inner desires, however in a mission is hardly one.

and what exactly would be wrong would that. are u some kind of homophobe?
u think people who scribble on maps are petty and small minded, try takin a look in the mirror.

and also how does drawing a penis even indicate sexual preference. anyone figure that logic out?

I don't think drawing a penis indicates sexual perference, but I would kick that person out of the group anyway, if there is such an option.

Agreed. Far too many people don't realize that even though they're sitting in their underwear in front of the computer in the dark working on their CRT tan they're still in a public setting and really should act accordingly. The anonymity granted by the internet often has the ill effect of bringing out the worst or most childish in far too many people.

EverBlue · Jul 19, 2005, 11:38 PM // 23:38

Well, I think when I'm drawing strategies on the minimap, I'll use a penis instead of an arrow.

Not entirely. If you remove all the posts that relate to homophobia, the ease to draw fe/male organs, irony, sarcasm etc. this thread could be cut down to 2 pages.

What life? My "real" life or my GW-life?

Maybe for some it's the lack of imagination, but GW, after all, is a role playing game.
That means you become, for the time being, the person that you play.

In my GW-life different things matter. Priorities shift. What's important in GW can be utterly meaningless in the "real" life and vice versa.

So to get back to the OP-topic: In my GW-life those 2 inch scribble drawings (regardless wether it's lewd, sordid, racism, nonsens, tic-tac-toe etc.) has a great significance.

In my "real" life however it doesn't really matter, does it?
I mean, my PC could crash, and my "real" life would go on. (I hope

)

But this thread is not about our "real" life. It's about (the way I see it) about GW-life.

Call me a looser, but when I do roleplaying I forget that I have a real life, and since addiction-to-the-game is a wide spread phenomena, I just hope I'm not the only one.

Lol, love it.

I'm sorry. The whole reason *why* I stop is because I *respect* your opinion.
