Curse

I was bored in the euro servers so i decided to go to the american servers AB(getting faction for my pve skills)- big mistake.

As soon as i get in, all that 'suxons, kurdicks' crap starts, then they start flaming each other for running. Then some warrior gets pissed off b/c i kite in circles so he doesnt do any dmg. (He mispelled most of it)

"Noob Kurzick runner!"

"I'm a monk"

"So?"

"I have 60 armour, im not going to stand there and let you hit me"

"Omg you're so noob"

"Why dont you bring a snare or a speed boost if you want to hit me"

"Omg, you're just a stupid noob"

at this point there were at least 10 people on both sides flaming each other.

We did win but when we went back to outpost and leader said

"GG, again?"

i said no thanks and went back to euro, which i prefer even though its quieter."

When I'm home, I play in Euro in the morning and America at night. I've got the advantage of speaking English and French as main languages (Quebecer here) but I found it very hard to team up with French-speaking people and help them set their bars when they need to. The translations I need to make right off the bat when I'm not on the char that's not with the same profession as they are playing aren't right, and description remains a description... subjective. (My GUI is set in English, not French; always has been since I mostly play with English-speaking players and it's easier for me to communicate in English with 'em).

Back when I did Urgoz a lot, my friends and I (we speak English between us, they're mostly Americans/English Canadians) would often team up with French-speaking players; it becomes VERY tiresome to translate directives in the middle of a pull, because whatever you're telling in English they want to know, and whatever you're typing in French, the others want to know.

As for German... well my German remains very basic. I had 3 months of it while in university; I can spam stuff without problems in German d's if I ever need to go there, and I can direct a bit... but I'll still prefer English. I don't have much a problem READING it... it's when -I- want to tell 'em something in German that I mess up x]. And some contractions I don't know, such as "sry" means "sorry" in English, "dsl" is "désolé" in French (sorry)... I can only try to imagine what it is *(ugh can't remember the spelling to save my life, but "enschuldigung"... if used on GW anyways).

I am German, but since the start of GW I have always been on the US servers due to being in an international guild. I play a lot of PvE, mostly by starting my own groups.

While I agree that German PuG have on average better builds, it is sometimes still more conveniant to play with american PuGs. Why? Because if I tell an american PUG to change his build, in 95% of the cases he will do it right away, in 5% of the cases he will ragequit (and I switch in my hero). German PUGs always start asking questions like "Why should I bring LoD over WoH?". While I agree that why questions are beneficial from an educational point of view, it is some much easier if people just do what you tell them =)

Oh and more importantly !!!!!!!!!!!!!

American make “Canoe” Beer (Because it is so F^&*^*& close to water)

Europeans make great Beer

I live in America and would have to agree with this the Work too many hours and no vacation or benefits you would be suprised what you have to do just to get Medical insurance.

Our economy is so F'ed up as well as the houseing market+land cost and the fact that nearly all large companies are monopolys with little to no compition dosent help.

A large contributer is all the Politicly correctness a few years ago it did not matter that much but now more and more people have to watch what they say.

and the fact that somehow BUSH rigged the election and lost the popular vote and still became president, that one is mostlikley the cause We just reliazed that the popular vote is a Joke and the Electorial college picks the president.
Cannot be to laid back when every chance BUSH gets he invades another middle eastern country. WAR is really killing our economy and that fact Bush still wants to spend Billions of the money that we dont have LOL.

Lol Trillions in debt would make anyone mad LOL, the game came out at a bad time in American history, with all the crap that happend in the past few years, If GW was released when Bill Clinton was still president you would have seen a Large difference in player attitude. that was when america was laid back.

Too many rich dumb celebs and politics=angry civilians
or celebs in politics LOL the Governator AKA arnold LOL

About the beer I cant say I dispise all forms of alcohol.

and all the little kids that play in america, I understand the T for teen rateing but most american teens are just I wont even finish that.
I would prefer not to play with teens on a Online game.

German district is simply ftw (im english (british)). They are always friendly in pugs and at least 2 of them speak english. Generally very friendly and serious when it comes down to organisation and teamwork...hence i go there most of the time these days.

Districts i dont like: French - i have had 100% bad experiences sorry to say
Russia/poland - i always manage to get dragged to these by accident ^^
