Bad habit of giving new players a kick-start in GW with whatever they need and if i have spares.
20k or a black dye or good weapon or mats for armor.
Reason it's a bad habit many keep spaming me for more stuffs days weeks later
and I never learn and still help the new players.

- I collect everything. I have 6 mules full of trophies and 6 more with everything else from runes to consumables, minipets, etc. Can't sell anything.
- I spam skills too often on recharge.
- I give silly or sarcastic comments to silly messages in public or alliance chat. For example, if someone asks for a rush 5 times in a row with no response, I feel urged to give some silly comment that there is currently no rusher and he should rush himself.
- If someone pings his build, I MUST comment it. Cannot resist. There is no build in the world (except my own) that cannot be improved by changing one or the other skill. This is an especially bad habit, since if I am together with my guild mates in Teamspeak, I start discussing their builds, thwarting their attempts to prepare for the mission. I usually get out of this by saying that I have to go to the restroom. When I get back, the discussion has vanished and we can start the mission. And the team mate uses whatever build he likes.
- If it is neccessary to fill up the team with heros, I MUST take mine. Nobody else has the appropriate builds, runes and equipment. I even talk other people into kicking their heros, telling that I only want to quickly examine one of mine and he can put his hero back afterwards. But I keep my heros instead.
- I painstakingly prepare a full H/H party for missions for half an hour. Read wiki, tuning hero's and my own builds and equipment. When I am finished, I decide to join a PUG without any heros, because it is more fun to watch the fellow players doing the unexpected.

AngelWJedi · Nov 09, 2009, 03:38 PM // 15:38

talking or reaching for something when i auto run then wonder why i get pwned by a mob.

That's a very good idea. I always wanted to help the new folks over at Ascalon (post), but I never get around to do it.

When I first got GW, I was introduced by a guy who showed me everything. Bless him

After making someone a decent offer of something, ie, offering to sell them something at the cheap end of market value, and having them try to lowball even further into the ridiculous, I'll refuse to sell to them even if they later accept my price. I just cba to deal with annoying people over a couple k.

bloodvayne · Nov 09, 2009, 07:24 PM // 19:24

I have a habit of not doing much, just letting h/h do all the work, only jumping in when it's a difficult group.
It works, and gets me thru HM no problem.... but then that habit sometimes sticks when I play with people lol

Eragon Zarroc · Nov 09, 2009, 07:58 PM // 19:58

spamming keys in pve until the skills goes of
cntrl pinging each indivdual target at least 3 times
spam pinging a target 20 times hoping the heros will listen better with repetition.
bloodlust distracting me from noticing people in my party have died.
fail at interrupts of any kind.
bull's a target expecting it to try running away after getting up from KD and it stands still.
use typed facial expressions everytime i type ;-) (guru problem as well

)
etc etc etc.

Verene · Nov 09, 2009, 08:14 PM // 20:14

I tend to ping things repeatedly in attempts to get my heroes/henchmen to listen.

I also hold down ctrl a lot when running around (want to see what's coming and stuff), so I ping my skills a lot on accident, too.

Also, I just can't hold onto my money. I recently figured out that if I actually just saved up my money in-game instead of buying multiple armor sets and runing out every hero I get and farm for materials instead of buying them and not commission art in Nolani, I'd probably have close to a million gold. Instead, I'm lucky if I have more than 70k at any given point in time. Ah well.

DJCoastal · Nov 10, 2009, 12:16 AM // 00:16

- buying useless armor i don't need or will ever wear. >_>
- pressing the 'g' button to check whose online in the guild every 1-15 min... even when most of the time i'm not a guild. lol...
- getting distracted while in a fight
- auto running into mobs of groups
- over aggroing everything by auto running
- i'm a packrat... i collect everything that drops for me or stuff i find in-game (i'm running out of space!!!!! i have 25 character slots atm and everyone is pretty much full...

)
- i talk to myself a lot in-game about stupid and useless things
- i like to hold down ctrl and alt a lot through everything :/

zhongzh · Nov 10, 2009, 01:38 AM // 01:38

I ping targets way too many times.
I hate picking up whites as im very lazy and cant be bothered to ID them later. (also because im scared of running out of space).
I watch tv while i play so i die a lot.

You could have just said that you have an elitist attitude and saved yourself the trouble of typing all that up :P

-I never group with anyone unless it's for a dungeon or something.
-I tend to call people out on blatant lies, stupidity, etc.

Jaskaran · Nov 10, 2009, 02:39 AM // 02:39

1.Tend to use a toucher a lot in RA...Ewww.
2.Tends to piss off people.
3.Tend to go on my main and wear my beginner armor and beg even though im a level 20 with full obby..
4.Tends to wear full obby and beg for gold from low levels in ascalon..(for the fun of it)

Barrage · Nov 10, 2009, 02:43 AM // 02:43

I tend to leave the game for 1-2 months in the middle of titles >.>, doing it again starting tomorrow,,,, Modern Warfare 2, oh how you draw me to you.

Hyperventilate · Nov 10, 2009, 05:06 AM // 05:06

I spam the space bar while I'm attacking an enemy. It doesn't matter what my profession is, caster or melee, there I am, spamming away.

I purposely turn off tips when I make a new character because that, "You're repeatedly hitting the space bar!" message pisses me off.

I'm also determined to piss off everyone in Tyria: one Ascalonian at a time. I don't think my desire to perma troll is a bad habit, though. Sometimes (Oh so very rarely sometimes), good comes from it.

I just can't help meself.

Red Intensity · Nov 10, 2009, 07:25 AM // 07:25

I:

- Over heal with my ritualist in PvE.
- Develop tunnel vision when a specifically annoying person keeps harassing me.
- Repeatedly press the space bar.
- Attempt to interrupt 1/4 sec spells cast by mesmers with 40/40 sets when I'm using a ranger too often (1/10 I hit them).
- Spam Natural Stride on recharge.
- Collect the fanciest warrior weapons, even though I don't use my warrior too often.
- Predict what combination of classes the enemy will have and how quickly we'll lose to them in Ft. Aspenwood, and I'm usually right.
- Predict how quickly we'll lose in FA/RA/JQ based on the classes on my team.
- Quit any RA battles when there's too much anti-melee on the opposing team (may as well, I don't stand a chance in any case).
- Spend more time watching GvG battles than playing PvE.

Chocobo1 · Nov 10, 2009, 09:57 AM // 09:57

I have a bad habit of expecting my team mates in RA to be somewhat competent.

Ferminator · Nov 10, 2009, 10:24 AM // 10:24

-Hitting disciplined stance followed by guardian on myself.

-WoHing party members above 50% health.
-I'm part of the N G H club too.
-Sitting in Kam/Gtob for too long.
-Hitting R, type a message and forget that I'm still typing and start spamming aaaaaaaaaa trying to move.
-Making too many characters cause I just want to try EVERY profession.
-Purchasing too many skills cause I just HAVE to try every build that is pinged in ac.
-Using my touch mouse instead of my desktop mouse.
-Saving up 50k then spending it on ToTs......
-Start up timer for JQ and open up firefox. I once afked the half the mission by accident.
-^RA too.
The list just goes on!
