Default Getting someone's nick

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any mean to get someone's nickname inside the game.

Last night, I was playing with my guildies in AB. We are Luxons and the maps was Grenz Frontier, unfavorable for us. We have a lucky join, because we know all the people from the other 2 groups in luxon side.

We know how all the other are going to play. For this, we won with a lot of difference. The kurzciks played well, but we have the advantage of experience playing together by our side.

The good thing was that one of the kurzicks said: "Luxons, damn good job, sad to say".

I would like to know the nickname of that person, neither of us took a screenshot or remember the name. But, at least for me, that person made me believe again that there are still really good players and people in GW, not just the usual Suxon and Kurdicks.

Sorry for the long post, but I feel really good after that shout on the local chat channel.

Anyway, if you read me, thank you.

I don't believe there is anyway.

But, if it makes you feel better, I do the same thing. If a good game is played, I make sure I give props.

There are still a few people that play this game that haven't gotten caught up in the pretentious B.S. that most have.

I've seen a lot of people say "gg" or something similar if it's really close or a big difference...

Lots of ppl, me included, says gg at the end of a game. In my case, it is just for education. It is not the same just saying gg, than explicitly saying "pretty good game!".

Ahh I understand you. AB is crap, but when you see a well-behaved player, you want to have a good relationship with him. Yes, you make me believe that a better future in AB is posible. I hope to play with you some day in AB, man

Glad to see you had a positive experience in AB. Since we were in the Kurz castle for quite a bit of time (I'm Kurz), I was on the receiving end of more defeats than I like, lol. It takes good teamwork to win in deep territory and every single time we lost in our home castle I always gave props to the Lux. I always say "GG" at the end (and no matter how bad we win or lose) but in these instances I said "GG, Well played Lux".

I never use abbreviations; when I'd use them, I'd always feel like I didn't care. I always make sure to let it be known that my playing intentions are good. If I'm on the winning or losing team I always end with a positive message.

I think that we fought you. Your nickname sound familiar to me.

Maybe, in AB, there are a lot of good players, but we just forget about them when we read the next: "Fu** Suxon, try 1vs1, noob."

It would be hard to find out who that was. But keep playing, maybe you'll see that person again if it's something he/she does often. And maybe you'll see that person's name and suddenly you remember it.

I once tried to track down someone who I was in a party with but accidently did the thing where you make all your windows in the game disappear and couldn't get out of it. I tried a bunch of things and ended up closing GW and I didn't remember the guy's character name. I posted on here but no luck in finding that person. Oh well. If you're curious, the post I made is here:

AB is garbage, it's the NO-skill Arena, I don't even really consider it PvP. Most times either team wins is because the other team just sucks or one team mobs better than the other. I've hardly ever come across any half decent AB battle. I really dislike when people say GG when the game was obviously horrible, defeats the point of saying GG IMO. Couldn't care less if someone said I was good or bad in AB because I don't hold AB players in high regard, no offense. To answer your question, no it's not possible to find that person again.

Couldn't be any post in this forum without a flame?

Yes, I take offense of that, because it was really your intention. I consider AB the only real funny PvP without any elitism in it, like happens in all the other arenas. And, your assertion about AB: "Most times either team wins is because the other team just sucks or one team mobs better than the other.", can be applied to any of the other PvP modes in every game.

No, that we have our Flame, please, close this thread.

No, I did not intend it as a "flame", you might have experienced it as such but that was not my intention. I wouldn't have bothered to say "no offense" if I did mean to flame you, you would have know if I did. I was just sharing my view on AB in general, and most people in general that play it do suck IMO.

No, that's simple not true. HA and GvG actually require skill and teamwork.

Sure, but there is always a but. That's true only if you are fighting against someone with the same level than you. Just to point it out.

If you really play regularly HA you must know that most of the times you can reach the third room without taking a lot of effort.

Of course, HA and GvG, mostly all that PvP crap, actually is garbage. No offense of course.

hmm, anyone here remember IWAY? EoE Bomb? SF builds? HeroWay? I think that skill in HA is not always a requirement. In fact, in HA about half the time you found fighting pre-defined builds or/and not experienced players.

I cannot say anything aboug GvG, because I haven't played it regularly.
