I'm not QQing, i'm suggesting, is it a general tendency these days that whenever you suggest something, you get flamed because someone doesn't agree?
Get a breeze and relax. I was just trying to show that AB could use an emote, if I don't get one I don't give a damn it would just be nice.

I just wish emotes were never implemented so HA people wouldn't have this exclusive attitude vs other people and the feeling that they are unique.

And you'll soon be able to trade you factions. And you get rares from HoH chest. So I think you're pretty much at the same lvl reward wise.

Again if you're not ready to have a pleasant conversation don't bother answer me cause i'll stop to the second line (or condense it on the first line

)

You have to actually win halls to get the chest rewards. PuGs and low ranked players generally don't get those benefits. Hell, I'm R8 and if I don't play with a group of hand-picked friends list types I generally won't win halls.

Everyone knows the emote "elitism" is a bunch of bullshit. However, having a rank shows you at least know the maps, but it is not necessarily and indicator of skill. It is more likely that the R8 player is better at HA than the R3 player though (I have been in situations where it was otherwise). There are many top end GvG players who have low ranks or no rank, thus it is not necessarily a good indicator of skill.

I'm generally not pleasant to anyone I dub lazy. You basically want emotes to be easier to obtain because you don't want to have to put the work into obtaining them. Everyone hates HA when they first start playing it. I hated HA. I had to work my way from the bottom (Dual smite) just like everyone else did. Along the way you end up meeting people who turn out to be good players, making the entire experience worth it. I was playing with R9 type groups when I was R4 because I had met some of the members of those groups previously in other groups and they felt I was skilled enough to play with them. HA is a good way to make friends in this game.

Thank you for answering in a pleasant way.
I'm not in favor of an easy to get emote, at all. I'm just thinking that AB could use some more reward. Emote or whatever, just not PvE skills, I do not care about those, and if you dedicate yourself to faction farming, you're not gonna use them anyway.
Getting to a high kurzick/luxon rank takes time and effort, I don't think that is being lazy but you're free to think so. Again, I'd like Anet to remove/nerf to hell FFF, that's what make the title worthless.
If they removed that, you'd be forced to AB, and you simply can't get 2M points by playing a riposte warrior.

The reason I say lazy is because ABers wouldn't have an incentive to better themselves in the game, thus they wouldn't try to improve themselves. AB is basically a primer for more difficult areas of PvP. A rank emote is an incentive to try HoH (which is a tougher place to play than AB). The guild ladder, cape trim, and prizes are incentives to get players to try to be good at GvG. RA and TA are the places that get the short end of the stick since there really isn't much of an incentive to do them (other than for the title and balth faction of course). That is probably the only place they could add emotes that wouldn't make me angry. Even then, I'm not so sure. I like it how it is... it's unique... if anything give RA/TA something new (maybe like a special aura or something).

We should give death his own emote for brutally killing the English language.

The emote would be the little word paper clip guy.

And each rank thereafter is one of the other guys.. dog for example

I agree on the TA/RA "something new". I was thinking about what each arena get, and those are the only ones that gives nothing special.

Just gives me an incentive to work on both glad and kurzick title. If people think high end pvp can be fun they will engage in it anyway. I used AB in the past to improve mysef big time, because RA was spoilt by all the leavers all the time. Well, actually I don't really 'work' for titles, I just get them on the fly.
