The amount of raging, flaming, swearing, insults and just general rubbish talk that flies around in this game often detracts I find.

Still I guess it's to be expected more in a non-subscription based game and while I have a thick skin, mature guild, and am well trained in the art of ignoring that which I disdain it's a pity it's so prevalent.

Bingo, he hit the nail for me.
XD good one XD

I completely agree.

Players who are bad at the game.

Well... I read about 95% of this and I agree with a lot of it.

Though I dislike people who run up to your randomly in a small PvE town (Gadd's Encampment, Granite Citadel) and /rank me. This is PvE, you want to /rank me then wait till I come to PvP ok? It's not like I try to outclass you by showing my titles, you've done a lot of work in PvP and I've done a lot in PvE no reason for us to be hostile alright?

Horrible Catch 22 circumstances when it comes to getting a group together. I.E (just a few examples don't get mad at me.) HA people looking for a certain rank for a PuG when half the people there don't have said rank and can't get rank without getting into your group. Even better are the Norn point farmers... wanting a certain rank when the only real efficient way to get the rank is with that group (yes I know books are a good way but after doing them for 2 other titles I'm sick of chasing that darned Nornbear...)

Oh... let's see, power traders that always try to buy low and sell high in another town.

People who PM me for Price checks after I offer one in some random town (even though I seem to be the price check pet for my alliance *sigh*)

Oh and how about any number of random pugs (individuals mind you) that try to tell me how to do my job as a ranger. I know how to interrupt a mesmer or ele ok? That's why that fire ele boss hasn't thrown a meteor shower or fire storm on your head yet ok?

People who insist that their build is better than mine despite having one overwhelmingly obvious flaw (like pinging a build that uses 50 energy to use each skill on the bar once but the warrior only has 20 energy and no energy management skill).

In the skirt tails of the last complaint, those that when I try to give them advise about their build try to tell me that it would only ruin the build.

Oh lord... and some person in Rata Sum:

Them: Oh no! Shadow Form got nerfed by the damage being decreased! Now the 600/Smite build will be next!

Me: ...And how is that build going to get nerfed?

Them: Life Attunement! It makes you deal less damage!

Me: ...Right... Life attunement only lets the 600 heal himself for more, it doesn't affect the smiter's damage bonds.

Them: No you noob! Artinnia you're a retard (insert other childish name calling and cursing here)

At which point I just said F it and went back to Raptor farming with my E/Me while letting my guildies laugh as I read this guys 'arguement' to them over vent.

...and that's all I can think of for now.

EDIT: Jsut clearing up some horrible typos... Blah.

I can not stand elitist or player with A.D.S.

Although ANET has provided a great cure for all our problems, Heroes and Henchmen and the best feature of all, the ability to turn off local chat.

I stopped playing Guild Wars in Early 06, but here we go.

People that ping the mini map and draw on it.

Especially the phallic drawings. I tend to just leave the group... not at the first sight of a non-tactical map drawing, but after I've seen one I wait until there's a heated, important battle, then flag my heroes somewhere far away and map out.

AFKers in parties

Evil_Necro · Jul 06, 2008, 06:25 PM // 18:25

ppl who posted on sell/high end thread that puts:

"s/o = 10k, b/o = tba" then when you post, "s/b please" one day later he goes, "[email protected], and then goes insult you, usually by saying
"already sold for {insert x times than the s/o}, was tempted to accept your offer though lololololol" I mean... dang, why even bother to put s/o on it?? just make it b/o only sales and you are done...

People that always say "gogogogogogogo!!!!" eventhough we just get him to join the group....

People that when selling something normal (tomes, black/white dyes/ecto) not stating price and when asked reply with "offer", when you did say your offer, he laugh/insult at you. God can ppl just say, "nty" ?

People that takes GW too seriously..

People that are rude in general, never able to speak without any cuss words on their sentences.

People that use 3rd person talking in attemp to look cute, when it's actually 40 years old male behind the computer >.>

People that are too much afk!! I hate this immensly.. "afk, phone" 3 mins later "sorry someone called again" 4 mins next "dang I am hungry, brb" the next 6 mins "ok now need to go take a drinks" 7 mins later "brb, gotta got o the bathroom" ON ONE QUEST!! All I wish is just pleaaaase.. dont join me if you dont have time >.<

People who are joining a mission knowing BEFORE HAND that they had to leave early.. God, have some consideration would you...

people who cant make/take/understand a jokes! I pity you! really really do..

Thats it for now, gonna add more tmrw... forgot some..

When I used to PuG that happened a lot and I would usually ask them to stop drawing, if they didn't I would just leave. Honestly if they can't stop themselves from drawing that kind of stuff on the map they have to be real idiots.

Also the people who ping spam.
"I am attacking xx" constantly without stopping. Same thing for those who ping over and over on the mini-map. I just leave, I can't deal with that kind of stupidity.

Those can be avoided by never PuG'ing ever again! Seriously, don't do it.

aTT!kus · Jul 06, 2008, 07:22 PM // 19:22

i hate the kids that have eliteist attitudes when they obviously know absolutely nothing about the game and the only words that come out of their mouths are "l0l noob you sukk you retard go back to yur mom cause ur stupid", if some one is going to insult me for killing them, please speak correctly

around · Jul 06, 2008, 08:05 PM // 20:05

OMG ITS A PENIS IM LEAVING THE GROUP

Reading through this topic reminds me of just how petty some people can be. Some of the excuses for the hate are feeble to say the least.

BenjZee · Jul 06, 2008, 10:08 PM // 22:08

1)people who start rumours about new minis - i know i was joking about some today but thats slightly different
2) people who believe them

BadgerznPie · Jul 06, 2008, 10:37 PM // 22:37

I've got a few more to add.

-People who beg for materials/money for armor and then boast about his/her new armor. It's not even completely yours.

-People in Shing Jea Monastery AD1. It's just a big chatroom.

-People who get free items/runs from ince people but don't say thanks. "ty" is all that's needed

- I forgot, people who get dragon gauntlets and expect them to match with their armor. Even if it's dragon armor, it still isn't going to match.

Meh, I'm bitter.

Joe Fierce · Jul 07, 2008, 07:52 PM // 19:52

I'm willing to bet it's been said a million times but, anyone who thinks that good time with ursan and cons makes them good, or that an expensive armor such as fow makes them good, whenever i say this i get the same response "what are you jealous noob" my response "no i purchased all my fow suits back when they still meant something and took a little more work than avatar of yogi bear". They usually don't like this and tell me to choke on a big one, but meh, whatever. The funniest part about it is this, you can spot those that respect the fow cause they actually worked for it, in comparison to those who ursan'd it, those who are respectable don't destroy the fow with chitty chaos gloves or a dread mask.

Widowmaker · Jul 07, 2008, 09:00 PM // 21:00

Scammers, they're always a good crowd.

For the humour deprived, yes, that was sarcasm...

I hate the old whiney vets of the game that ruin it for newbies, who think the game is dead just because they're not having fun anymore forgetting to realize after their old cranky ass dies life goes one and old experiences are forever new again to a new generation. I hate the old time vets of any community who demand changes to the game (aka nerfs) before the younger ones have a chance to enjoy it. I hate the old time vets of the game who dont play the game but rather complain about it on forums.

So...you hate anyone that has played the game longer (and likely knows more about the game) than you?

How eloquently mature of you.

I'd like to thank you for taking the words outta my mouth, have you been snubbing my letters to santa and reading my diary?
