These days, I hide in a quiet quiet corner of the Maguuma Jungle, that I often have all to myself 24/7.

every place sucks now... even my home of port sledge has been infected by naked dance parties... Ember light camp is a more non noobish place

In the summer, the sync dances in Grotto were a lot bigger. Huge groups of sync dances all over the place. I remember one time there was a big battle in a form of violins versus drums or guitars. Everyone joined in to see which group was bigger, seemed like hundreds of people came. Fun time that was, the earlier days of Grotto was much more fun and it had a great positive atmosphere.

Nowadays grotto pretty much sucks. It used to be a fun place to go + meet other ppl, have several laughs as well as check out all the hot armors with interesting dye jobs. Today its just filled with immature retards who are so attention starved, they say the dumbest things over + over + beg everyone for money. The vulgarity is certainly uncalled for + unnecessary. Quiet sad really that ppl act like this

Ya Grotto is filled with too man egoistical jerks nowadays. Also too many Chuck Norris jokes.

Kago Seirei · Feb 01, 2006, 08:10 AM // 08:10

Ahh, the good ol' days.. When fun was fun without stupid people all like "Zomg, I'm a nub and I like to wammo j000!!"

Vilaptca · Feb 01, 2006, 08:13 AM // 08:13

Seems the new place to hang is the Z Elite int dist 1 Mostly cause most of the n00bs have zero chance of getting there without help.

I saw a nice little dance off between guilds happening in there yesterday... All in Fissure Armors... Was kind of neat to see an exclusive hard to get too place to hang out again... Definitely reminded me of the old days... Many people just hanging out AFK or whatever... Just to see who pops by... kind of the old school reunion area lol...

I kind of hope they open up the last island to some kind of ultimate showdown area... Something like an allied co-op arena. that you have to defeat the Z elite to get too. that would be soo cool. Luxon vs. Kurzick... kind of thing... with 2 or more parties per side for co-op battles...

Would serve as a training area for the new PvP / PvE world domination thing coming in Chapter 2. alla "The Jade Quarry" mission.

and for some of the other co-op areas like "Courthouse Square", and "The Unwaking Waters" missions... Which will involve 2 parties of 8 working together to complete the mission...

now that theres an observer mode, instead of me chilling in some obscure outpost when im off doing something else, i now chill in obs mode
obs mode is where the elite meet :P

Vilaptca · Feb 01, 2006, 12:54 PM // 12:54

<--- not elite, but hangs out in obs mode as well...its like TV...but GW...

natus · Feb 01, 2006, 01:26 PM // 13:26

actually, grotto is a nice place if you have the nnoying people on ignore, it's posible to chat without being "nub"'d.

ShazBo · Feb 01, 2006, 02:27 PM // 14:27

ok I like the conversation about how Grotto has changed and all but isn't this a screenshot thread?

me and a couple of other warriors all synced up:

2 hrs later:

Lord Sojar · Feb 01, 2006, 05:56 PM // 17:56

Oh! I was there on my monk! Lord Sojar! See??!!

We were posing while you necros were lined up! That was fun! The warrior chicks as well!

ShazBo · Feb 01, 2006, 06:58 PM // 18:58

Say what? I had no trouble getting there at all.

Way I see it, if everybody knows about it, it will quickly no longer be their hangout, due to the immediate influx of idiots who want to be among them.

X of Thulcandra · Feb 07, 2006, 09:07 PM // 21:07

Maguuma Stade is where all the action is at! (Not really, but usually there are 2-5 random people AFK there)

Or someone (like me) could form a hangout guild, and have a sign-up thread for a huge get-together at my place (The Guild Hall). I wouldn't induct you into the guild itself, but make you a guest.

Quid Pro Quo · Feb 14, 2006, 08:59 PM // 20:59

I heard the stories of what happened to the ol' grotto so I was dreading going ..

But I went to get my armor and had great fun. There was only one horny wammo but we quickly smoked him out with mass sync dancing fun.

The grotto doesn't seem any different to me, personally. Maybe its timezones.

yay my ele is in the backround of the first picture =p
