(sort of)

and I'm sure it's been elsewhere too, but using search for "AFK" "Away" or "Message" doesn't bring up the right stuff. Really, don't take credit for something like that, because it's been thought up before...on other games, in these forums, etc. Another suggestion for you...don't gloat about yourself, kind of annoying...yeah...

1 v 1 Battles:
Been discussed, over multiple boards/forums/posts, a lot right here in the sanitarium.

Marriage:
Pretty much what Aaaaagh said, except I would also add in the fact that this isn't Everquest...it's Guild Wars.

read my first post this is a list what i would like to see in GWs not demands or such yes i know they been posted before, dont care bout it( didnt chek in the first place only topic i been chekking on is the 1 vs. 1 i just gave out my opinion on how they can be made as for the other topics also GIVING MY opinion on how they can be made in to reality, and as we know its only one opinion and opinions vary you dont have to agree with me ) this is just how i
would like to see them come up and i collected the ideas in one post.

and for the marriage you like to scrap things before you think dont you ^_^ if you didnt realise by know there are people who like to sosialize in this game like 2 of my friends allready acting like a couple ^_^ this would just give the oppurtunity for the people who want to get married in game

Ill sum it up: online marriages = horrible thing.

he hee this is the post type i been looking for, honest, and pure opinions not flames like rhunex with hes 2 last posts. ^_^ still i think it would be nice to see the people who socialize in this game to have the chance... but its only my opinion.

NOTICE one hander turned to 2 hander thats why the damage increase part it would work both ways so 2 hander going to 1 hander would result a decrease in damage ( again i have to say read my posts) reason i posted this seperately is i wanted to make absolutely sure this part gets thru so the people browsing wount miss this so easy.

all i can say about this for you is BAKA!

i pointed out it would be nice to have the trade messages limited to 1/30 seconds no matter how long they are, just let people say what they have to offer or what they are looking for simple as that no spam. and as for slapping you, if you cant read my whole post with a thought dont veen bother to reply i want/need solid feedback not assumptions.

You don't seem to understand this simple fact:
If the trade channel nerfs the spammers ability to spam, he will spam elsewhere. And if you're going to restrict the local channel, then you're going to get a lot of angry citizens, who just want to talk to a friend and can't because they have to wait X seconds for their next message to go through. Get a brain, and think further than what's behind you. Your entire argument is
"Baka"
and
"...you can't read my whole post..."

Quote:

like i said BAKA! i still want to see what they have to offer thats why ignore is out of the question, but when 20+ people are doing the same thing...
thats why the message limitation.

Same thing as above as far as the people spamming trades. New thing here:
If 20+ people are annoying you, then go to the district with the biggest number tacked on to it, because there will be fewer people there than the smaller numbered districts. That way, it is literally impossible for 20+ people to annoy you. Once again, your only argument is "Baka"

Quote:

umm this time i say BAKA Yaro! first of all it doesnt matter whether i see hes stuck or not, its the thing HE GETS stuck so noticing that he is stuck doesnt change the fact he is stuck and have to start over again, as for your opinion that i think everyone is against me sorry man gotta disappoint you there also
if u just had the patiense to read the whole messages you would understand i am trying to find out if that is theyr last opinion concerning the subject.

You fail to realise two things about henchies being stuck, before you die.
1. You can try to get them unstuck, so you can continue.
2. Or you can save yourself from your hormonal rage and just restart without getting angry at everyone because you goofed up.

And yes, you think everyone is against you if you can't take advice from a simple suggestion like this:

"Well, if your henchies keep getting stuck, it could be lag issues with the servers, or your computer might have its own crash(kind of) and you should probably just slow down. Either way, if you're soloing with henchies, then it should be one of your bigger concerns to make sure they stay caughter up with you, and if they get stuck on something, then you should be able to identify by them not following you on the radar that something is wrong."

without replying in a hostile way like you did...here:
"Seems like you havent read the last post from me with thought i am trying to point out the spam that People do by adding only one new mark in the message = constant spamming. let me make it more clear to the others with I.Q. of a 8 year old. ok heres again a sample of the Spam ( and i am annoyed of it only becouse i am trying to see what other people have to offer for sales and what they wanna buy instead of seeing the same message over and over again, was it that hard to understand?"

AND ONCE AGAIN:
It's not a surprise your only argument is "Baka" and "You can't read my whole post"

Quote:

Dear baka yaro! we run to the places when we dont feel like fighting its not a big deal to fight i know but man you get over my remarks ROFL, i mean i dont run to the key places i rather fight but when we are talking about the small places like marhans grotto and such i prefer to run them to my map, chek the skills there then continue with the plot related missions and quests and then get back there and explore the area when done with the missions and quests that i am on at the moment. It seems to me you havent figured out that NOT all have 11 hours a day time to just fight theyr way to the smallest cities. Bleh

If you are planning on running from town to town, why do you bring henchies? If it's just to take hits, then it doesn't help even if they're as fast as you. And if they get stuck someone when you're trying to run somewhere...multiple times...common sense might tell you that the henchies get stuck, and bringing them means you don't get to respawn and try again. If you want to "run" to the next town, then run there, I really don't care, but don't complain how your henchies glitched and you weren't able to bypass all the monsters like you thought you could.

Quote:

as for point 1. we run with the maximum amount Doh!

point 2. Doh! almost everyone is spamming you asking to filter everyone ^_^
as i stated it would be a good thing to have the trade messages to 1/30 secs. more than enough for people to say what they have to offer and what they are looking for.

#3 not really related to topic. bleh.

#4 when did i say my comp is perfect LOL man your a good story teller

#5 hmmm yes i most of the time do that but when your dead kinda hard to go and fetch them if they get stuck after u die LOLz

#6 when you dont have time ( or friend doesnt have ) the things get done quick.

#7 allready stated my point concerning this issue, dont get repetative man.

If you run with maximum amount, good for you, feel happy, but running with max henchies is just stupid. They won't follow closely behind you, as you've said, and if you use spells like sprint or windborne speed, you'll pull ahead of them. They also get stuck on the map(previously discussed) and they fight anything that moves(previously stated...? maybe, i dont know, this isnt the only post i've been on tonight)

2. Been covered, people wouldn't use trade channel, they'd use local chat.

3. if you think its irrelevent, sure, why not.

4. i said your computers internet speed was perf, not your computer. You said you never lagged, 1 exception, so SORRY if the overexagerration of one instance confused you.

5. the point of 5, was to know not to run to point B, die and learn you should have run to point A. get a brain.

6. if you dont have time the play the game, dont play the game. simple as that.

7. can't reply to this, i have no clue what i repeated for you.

Quote:

you didnt read my post again did you, as i said something to do for the people who played this game over and over thru dozens of times something to make exploring the map more appealing ( thats why the remark on your I.Q. you dont read my posts well enough to understand the concept, or then your just a lazy reader )

I don't think you fully understand what this means to farmers. If, in each area(this is a direct quote...read your own post, says:"we need to spice it up lets add a few special monster to each area"), there was a promised purple/gold monster, then people would farm them. No matter what. It would increase their chance of finding the rune they want for PvP, and it would still be along their same farming routes, for the smaller maps like Perdition Rocks and such. So, don't say that I don't fully read your posts. Just because I don't recite back to you word for word what I disagree with, doesn't mean it's implied.

Quote:

#1 i dont mean to be disrespectfull BAKA!!!

#2 like i dont know what the slider is and as for the left beeing OFF sorry pall it aint, the program is still running the files to conduct music. etc. what i am asking is for a REAL OFF button that stops the program running the procedures for music and such so the people who are waiting for something/someone in game can do something else besides watching the game screen ( and do it with more easy since the decrease in processing needed for game makes other programs run faster ) then when u get back just flip them back on

So, you think a respectful statement closes somewhat like this?
"If AN is lacking so much creativity to forget to add a OFF button..."

They offer you Guild Wars servers for free use, and you disrespect them like that. They've worked hard, and have excellent service for a company that doesn't expect $15+ out of you each month.

If you have enough power on your PC to play a music player and Guild Wars, then it's not too horrible having the music volume reduced, while playing your own music. I've played games like Half Life 2, T:V, EQ while running windows media player(not the best, but i dont care what it is, as long as it plays my music) and when i switch over to GW, i really dont notice a big change that makes my player run slower, this based on your "( and do it with more easy since the decrease in processing needed for game makes other programs run faster )" statement. I'll start quoting you when replying, so you know I'm reading your posts. And I'll let you know, my machine isn't the most updated. I'm running 2000 on a computer originally '95, so you can imagine it's not the best. Just wondering myself...what are you using? I just want to know why your game/player changes when mine doesn't, could be different computer(dunno how gateways, homemade, and other computers work as far as those things, so i might be missing a piece to understand this fully)

Quote:

now you are acting like the queen of england, read my first post, i dont mean to harass or anything else the AN this is only a list of things that would be nice to have in game, i have only stated my disappointment on certain things and as far is i know i have stated suggestions not demands you moron,and no you didnt read my posts u have more like browsed them othervise i wouldnt be making these remarks

Yeah, your first post. This isn't your first post. Take a few steps forward in time, we're not discussing your first post.
Yes, you've stated your disappointment on things, and I tried to reply in a way I thought wouldn't be insulting, but you turned it around on me and insulted me for not fully understanding you when you briefly discuss what was
going wrong with your henchies. I tried to suggest a few things, not only to you but to other people who get problems with henchies and who might have read this post, and you turn around and insult me. Thanks, great to know when I give a small suggestion that people like to insult me about it. This is referring to MY first post, which was harmless, and not directed to insult you in ANY way, but you somehow thought it insulted you and decided to strike back. And because I was insulted, i defended myself, and it seems I still need to against your arrogance.

By saying the damage thing might not work, I was just implying that giving W/Mo more damage to work up their attacks with, might overpower them and unbalance certain classes, but I also said I wasn't sure how it would work out, because I don't know all of the mathematics to the game. Just because you think I don't read your entire post because I don't cite it word for word doesn't mean I read bits and parts of it with selective sight.

it woudlnt ower power since making 1 hander to 2 hander doesnt allow them to wield a shield so simple, and if you keep flaming ( as in ur prewious post before ) ill just simply ignore your posts hengeforth. as for the trade i say agian BAKA! you can mute talk if they spam it but you might not want to mute trade to see what the others have to offer and this is really the last post i am gonna say stop flaming or i ignore ya

actually i allready start to ^_^ so dont bother anymore.

Oh ok, I can see from the screenshots what you mean. But it's a little invasive, don't you think? Whispers are generally between two people, and are usually private conversations that you don't want to share with the public. Making whispers show to everyone kind of defeats the purpose.

Plus, it's extra spam, and the conversations you are having get lost in other people's conversations.

Lewick · Jun 09, 2005, 05:28 PM // 17:28

From what I can gather, I think you're looking for what some other games call "chat channels" - channels that are created by players for their friends to join, which are persistent over logouts from the game. For example, you create a chat channel called "Friends of Yotian". Then you invite your friends to join that chat channel. Now they use that chat channel in order to send messages to everyone that has joined that chat channel. I know several games that use this concept, and it works very well.

I have spent a lot of time playing with henchmen (the majority of my ranger's 350,000 experience). I haven't ever had them follow a different mob's waypoint. I've had them get stuck on objects, which I then have to manipulate them out of. I've had them run off to the last point where we died as a group (apparently they fixed this.) I've also never had them sit around for 2-4 minutes doing nothing. I have had the healers and casters not engage in a fight, but that's because I was at the extreme edge of longbow range, and I had to move up just a bit for them to realize a fight was occurring.

the whispers in that screen were not shown to the public, they were only the example of the K Speaks to L system that could be used in friend chat to clarify who is talking to whom. notice the other one whispering ( was my character ) yotian to the one whos dead as a ghosts

the specified events i gave for henches usuallu occur when you get killed in a distance from henches like holding of a group of foes so they dont get to henches before they get to them ( as i do when dealing with patrols )

and about the friend chat its good to know someone else here knows what i mean with it, and correct me if i am wrong but they dont really add the spam actually decrease it since you dont have to ask many people thru different messages you can just type it in one chat box and you conviniently have all your friends there to answer to the question.

Lady · Jun 09, 2005, 07:02 PM // 19:02

I know I'm a little late here, but I have a comment about the chat spamming issue.....

Ok I have a few ideas:

1) make dedicated trade districts. Say districts one and two are solely for people who want to trade. People can't auto to get in there, it has to be chosen.

2) another idea make a trade area, like what was implemented in D2.

One of these should filter out all the spam from people who just want to play and not buy or sell anything. Because lets face it, people will find a way to get around filters.

Just my opinion, again sorry I'm a bit late but had to voice my thoughts.

Thank you for your time.

Talesin Darkbriar · Jun 09, 2005, 07:02 PM // 19:02

Rhunex, I can't help but come to the conclusion from your posts that you are a borderline megalomaniac. It appears you must always be correct, always have the last word, and anything you haven't personally tried doesn't work.
Then of course you author "brilliant" ideas like the ability to "puke" when drunk - which speaks much more of your actual personality and skillset.

All I can say to you is Tyria is a very big place, and you are a very small person.
Play accordingly.

thats a BRILLIANT idea, ^_^ another solution would be market like in CO but a bigger one though, u just reserve a spot there, display your items in a vendor spot that everyone can view, put your prices there and wait till someone with the money comes and buys.

By author do you mean me or Rhunex? as in the author of this thread or Rhunex as an author of a thread concerning ability to puke? ( geez what a sick puppy comes up with an idea like that 0_o)

Yes, I find it fun to flame people when they're offline, especially when their last post was...6 posts ago...always fun isn't it. If you think that suggesting puke is "immature" like I think your post implies, then that's fine, but I find nothing wrong with being open about those kinds of things...sorry if my personality is horrible in your eyes, but I really don't care. I suggested puking, because it would be more entertaining to me, if it doesn't entertain you, then don't drink ale(which, from your post, I would assume you've never done, even to see the effect).

If you're going to flame my post, then you're flaming the wrong person. All I tried to do was give suggestions to how/why Yotian's initial ideas might not work out 100% the way he thought they would. I never said anything hostile until I started being attacked like giving a suggestion is the most rude thing to do...

Now that would be nice too.

How about having a place like a "personal store" that people can go to....

you put your items you want to sell in there (keeps items out of your inventory and storage vault....set a price, or have a timed auction (highest bidder automatically gets it) and let the store work for you.

This would not only help with inventory/vault space but in a sense eliminate the need for people to spam WTS/WTB items.

Talesin Darkbriar · Jun 09, 2005, 07:36 PM // 19:36

Lady your idea has great merit - and would easily allow people who wished to either trade or whatnot to go to the appropriate areas to do so - sparing the rest of us from their spam.

Rhunex, I was not referring to the OP, but rather your general attitude that any idea proposed is bad, unless of course YOU are the one making it.
Not intended as a flame but as a general observation, and aye, I believe your "puke post" speaks a great deal about you.
lol~

Tal

Rhunex · Jun 09, 2005, 07:43 PM // 19:43

Yes, I disagree to everything...why? Because I'd rather not have the public viewing a biased opinion on something, then a petition be put up and all the little kids vote on something they think is right, and ends up ruining the game for many. I don't think every proposed idea is bad, but a lot of ideas just aren't possible with GW as it is now(Like new professions, modes of transportation, etc), and then there's ideas or parts of the game the staff is already working on fixing, like bugs, glitches and other run-time errors.

By objecting to the original post, I didn't mean to say it was horrible, stupid, irrelevant or anything like that. I just meant to put out other information that can give the public an idea of what to do in case they run into similar problems. For example, my first post. I gave suggestions on how to get Henchmen unstuck, and to remind people to make sure to watch for them becoming stuck. I didn't state that directly to Yotian, through his popular belief, but rather to the entire community, so that any child that would see it, would know what to do when henchies got stuck, or why they got stuck in the first place, because many times...children don't know those things. I was just keeping an open eye and mind to things that would help the community...old and young...

I didn't mean to set off Yotian, though I someone did through a suggestion.

It makes sense to me, that if you had a brain the size of a peanut, you would be able to decipher the fact that the same thing is being fed to you, hardly changed, just by GLANCING at it. If your mind is unable to filter trash, and a person is really annoying you...put them on your ignore list, and go to a different district, and QUIT complaining.

You know what, you didn't have to be an annoying snot about it, it was just a suggestion. Pull the stick out of your rear and quit thinking everyones against you. If your computer DOESN'T lag, then you should QUICKLY be able to tell if a henchmen is stuck, instead of waiting 5 minutes late when you're dead and you go..."Oh no...he's stuck on the teleporter switch now I have half an hour of work ruined...poo monkeys."

If your henchmen are getting stuck in monster waypoints(won't happen now, it's fixed supposedly, and I'm sure you got that term from the updates page, since you lack the knowledge to think up something like that yourself), then you better run as fast as you can to get to them, or they'll die. I've done so on many ocassion, and it's not that difficult even if they run through textures. You can usually get near enough to the monster waypoint to have them start running back to you before they die, and if they do, too bad.

About the slowness of Henchmen. Did you ever think that maybe it doesn't matter how slow they are? This online game is free to you, after you initially buy the game. If they're slow, big deal. Take 5 more seconds out of your life to make sure your henchmen are safe instead of complaining you wasted 2 hours of your life when you henchmen died from being slow.

You're "running." Wow..you know some big fancy words thar...you must be a cities folks with high tech equipment and perfume for yer armpits! Seriously, if this game was meant for you to run past hordes of monsters with henchmen, doing nothing skill related, then the dev team wouldn't have...what're they called again...MONSTERS in the game. Don't come to the boards, and say you're too stupid to think GW is worse because henchies don't stand and fight when you're trying to run the next cutscene because you're such a horrible gamer, you couldn't kill the monsters built into the game...made to be killed...killed by everyone...every day...all the time...get over it, really.

You say I have a low IQ, but you can't:
1. Make sure your teammates are near you, even though there's a reason parties get up to the size of 8.

2. Filter trading chat with your own mind. You come to the boards to complain for hours on end that for a few seconds you were angry at a person putting words on your screen that you can filter out.

3. Think for yourself, so you copy what other people tell you is right.

4. Use your perfect computer's internet speed to find out henchmen are stuck on textures.

5. Figure out that if henchmen are stuck at point A, you don't run to Point B.

6. Take the time to do things right, instead of doing them quick.

7. Figure out why the heck you would want to fight a monsters while playing the role of your character on a monster fighting role playing game.

NOW THE NEW STUFF!!!!
This means, your more recent post about what you think needs being updated(just trying to help you keep up the pace here with your tiny brain and fast internet speed).

With your first suggestion, I would have to agree. Having an NPC that takes in gold so you can go over your character again, hairstyles and colors, would be awesome. I'm no so sure about the raising damage part, but it might work.

With your suggestion on Purple/Gold monsters, I would have to disagree, because it would give the PvPers another reason to complain about having to Grind 24/7 to find the Purple/Gold monsters to get the items they NEED for PvP O_o

And this piece of work, I saved for last:

This has easily become the most disrespectful post I have ever seen. If you want to away the ambient sounds of Guild Wars, click on Menu --> Options.
This will bring up a window, and lo and behold...sound controlling devices. It's called a slider, the left side means OFF and the left side means OFF. If you want the sound OFF you pull the little ball to the left side. That will turn the sound OFF for whichever category you picked. The three to choose from are Music(Background Music, which is the one you want) Background Audio Volume(this is the sounds like Birds chirping, rustling leaves, etc.) and finally, the last one is Effects Volume( which is what you would reduce if you didn't want to hear the clanging of swords and such).

Don't come to the boards, harass ANet, and expect them to give two cents to what you think. And definately don't come, harassing other people who don't agree with all your horrible biased opinions, and then pass it off like you're the queen of England, and you're opinion and thoughts are always 100% right. Also, don't assume that because you don't understand all of the words in my post that I "misread" your post. I never misread your post, and I stand firmly behind everything I have said so far.

yeah yoti, dont post that here the majority of the population on these fourms are trolls with nothing else to do, you should really send those suggestions to the devs, from the guildwars.com website, and maybe get a dialog started with them you will only get flamed on these forums for posting suggestions as seen above in the following quote. . .so save yourself the time and screw the fourms

Ill sum it up: online marriages = horrible thing.

Thanks for speaking instead of flaming. :-) Really, it gets tiring reading the same old name-calling posts.

I agree that in-game marriages aren't necessary. Given the almost complete lack of role playing in this game, what would be the point? It would just result in a bunch of awful drama because some 15 year old boy would FINALLY figure out that the hot chick his male character married is played by a another guy and there would be name-calling and....blech....DRAMA.

If they ever implement marriage they need to implement divorce court. I could make some serious gold as a warrior/divorce lawyer lvl 18. ;-)
