Omg! I just noticed they stole the word Ranger, from real life! I had always thought that Anet made up their own words!

Come on, people. No need to flame, huh?
I believe you can't "steal" a word, pappayaponta. Here's an example: The word WARRIOR. A warrior is usually very brave and enduring in battle. The skill description for warriors in GW says something like "bla bla stout at heart, last long in battle" etc. This still doesn't mean they stole the word warrior.

If i had the time i could probably find nearly95% of GW's words/phrases are "stolen".
I think what he means is it has a definition that matches what the luxons do |

The word travel apeared twice in the text. That sure qualifies as a lot. I think 3 times would mean it dominated the text.
Luxon = one that travels Warrior = one that goes to war Elementalist = one who uses the elements Monk = one who makes wine Assasin = one who dies first, second, third in battle Last edited by tommarrow; Jun 02, 2006 at 06:46 PM // 18:46.. |

Just deleted a string of flames and such. I think the point and purpose of this thread's gone by this point.
