Man.. I have a million of these stories...

I just found this tread... and I gotta tell you. This is the most entertaining thread ever..

okay... here is another story:

I wont bore you with all the details... but well... There was a guy in our guild. He left on his own because of an argument he had with our leader. Fair enough... Afterwards, he PMed everyone... spreading lies about our leader. Stuff like: "Oh did you hear what she said about you? she said this.."
He actually managed to pursuade a few people to leave, but the core of our guild stayed together. 2 weeks later he begs to come back. apoligizes. After much debate we let him back in...

I log in and press G to see whos online and i see this guy was now an Officer in the guild. I quickly PMed our leader and asked her if she was nuts and why did she promote him. Apparently... He somehow got a hold of an officer's password. Logged in as them. Promoted himself with the intention of kicking everyone from the guild. He kicked one person before we caught on. We kicked his ass out.

JERK!

Well, this is not a story about a jerk, just about a young, immature, clueless, leechy person.

We have a guildie who needs to get through Elona. 5/6 of the group is guild and on TS. I, the monk, happen to be leader of the group, I invite another to join us for mission and bonus. He was a warrior, only level 17, but I wasn’t too worried because as long as you can control aggro it’s all good.

We clear out the first area before awakening the priest. Our guildie warrior says over TS he suspects that the level 17 doesn’t have very good armor. Since I accidentally let him die, I tend to agree. While waiting for slow priest to come over, we ask: What armor is that?

Warrior-17: “id rather not say”

Hmm. Well, I’ve gotten through this mission with less than 6 before, we can still handle it. I did warn him, I might not be able to keep him alive, but I also assumed he’d try and do some damage for us also. He said “that ok.”

We get around to the area with the first crystal, kill all the dudes, and start heading for the next priest. Warrior-17 doesn’t move. We call his name. Finally I say, sarcastically, “thanks for coming.” He says, “thx guys.” Whoa! He does talk! “ill stay here one less person to heal.”

Ummm, wha..?

Since I was doing the healing and whatnot, I missed the subsequent exchange which revealed that he was only 11 years old and his mom was telling him to go to bed. That we were to finish without him.

OK, bud. Entering a mission with pre-searing armor, not responding when spoken to, then leeching. We could have finished without him, and have it overwith, but we all met back in Elona, took Lina, finished mission and bonus with minimum aggravation.

Poor kid probably wakes up to find his time run out, and the camera panning up and around his dead body in the sand. Return to Outpost.

I guess we could be seen as the jerks in this scenario, but I’m not playing the game to babysit.

Conversation

(background - back when I was still running to Droknars before I realised it was boring, running in a pair with my guild pal. Demanding 2k of ppl. That's 1k going to each of us. situation occurred a while later)
(rough recollection of the conversation)
Jerk: You ripped off my guildmate and I'm here to collect.
Me:?
Jerk: That's right. I want you to give me 1k because you ripped off my guildmate.
Me:What? What was his name?
Jerk: (name), but don't try to get away. I'm collecting this money from you whether you like it or not.
(hazy area in my memory, but he kept on talking like a flipping lawyer for a while and I just kept calmly arguing with him that it was a fair price, I didin't see what his problem was.)eventually:
Jerk:I'll take you down in the arenas.
Me: Ummmm.
Jerk: Scammer. I'm taking your name to the forums, scammer. Your reputation as as runner is gonna be ruined.
Jerk: Goodbye. (ignores)

Ahhhh. One hell of an interrogation. Later he posted me that he'd put my name on 50 forums, but I checked and couldn't find anything. What a mug.

this happend today while i was farming with my o so orginal griffon farming build that i totally made up myself

then someone, who was in my guild for just 4 days, asked us if someone could give him an axe, now I dont care that much about thos ekind of things, but he also asked us, the fist day he wa sin the guild, if someone could give him money to buy armor. i tell him that he could get some things himself and he suddenly start flaming me with all kind of you-know-what. After a minute he cools down, i still make some screenies for just in case. about 10 minute slater, his friend, also just 4 days in our guild, starts talking to the guild with his capslock on. I kindly ask him to turn it down, becuase it was really annoying. Well then hell erupted, before i know my entire chatbox is filled with all kinds of swear words and other stuff, for about 15 minutes, will i try to stay nice and stuff. evantually the guild leader (who i PM'D on msn) came on and cooled things down.

i mean, i alreayd paid for 1 guys armor, always help others with things, an as soon as i ask soemthing, i totally get flamed, thats what i call jerks

I'm pretty sure that after that he would be banned.
They can't leave someone as *Engine gored* up as that on GW.

P.S
Most probably the reason why he did harass was because he thought he could get away with it without being reprimanded, suspended or banned.

Some people will try just because they can and think themselves invincible.
--------->It's also a kid's rush (Like parachuting) to swear online because
they can't be told by their parents that they can't do that.

Thank you for explaining how to figure that out. However as I said before, I understand why the idiot got banned and I'm glad she reported him, I would have done the same and have done the same for idiots like that. So everyone, quit explaining why he got banned, I get it, ok?

Here's my story:

Needed to get some armour infused and do Bonus at Iron Mines so started looking around for people. Saw a similar ad msg:

"Looking for people to infuse, do Bonus and complete Mission"

so joined up with a group (we were 3) partaking in friendly conversation until we were 8.

Starting mission, we run to Seer and get armour infused afterwhich I update the group saying

"Okedoke, Bonus is next"

Get msgs from group such as:

"cool"
"yay I need bonus"
"what is bonus"
etc

This one guy though immediately goes on the negative:

Mr Selfish: "why you need bonus, is crap"
Me: "er, well why play the game at all?"
Mr Selfish: "only for 1k xp whats point"
Me:"I don't do it for the xp"
Mr Self: (silence)
Me: "Do it for fun"

At this point, someone has just aggroed the shadows we ran past, so a bit of fun entails with everyone running around panicking trying to fight them off but going round in circles. (which was actually very funny)

A few of us duck out of there but leave 1 more on the "other side"

Then the rest that I was with run past all the Mursaat and Mantle eventually reaching the area outside Markis stronghold.

Which is when i notice the fallen party member and ask where they are.

She tells us and then one of the warriors heroically tells all of us to wait and he galiantly dashes off to res the fallen heroine

So the rest of us are standing around bored so we decide to kill some Mursaat, clearing the area next to the RoF Portal.

At which point another member has fallen but not in fighting with us but over where Shadows are.

Everything goes quiet and someone asks

"What now"

I reply "Lets go get our fallen comrades"

So we all head off and decimate everything including Shadows, retrieve everyone so we are again 8

Again, standing in front of Markis stronghold, I think to myself "hmm if we do Bonus some of us might die or leave (which has happened b4) and then the people that need to complete mission will have to start over" so I say to group

"okay, lets take out the Mursaat left and right, then Markis and 2 Jades, but pls leave the other 2 Jades alive"

Everyone agrees and we take out aforementioned targetsand leave 2 Jades alive.

Now the Bonus argument starts up again. We start making our way towards where Blade Ryder Scout is and throughout this guy is going on about not needing bonus blah blah. I tell him that he shouldn't of joined up a group that was doing "Infuse, Bonus and Mission in that order.

He says doing both Mission and Bonus is not possible, I just laugh quietly. So we clear the area up to where the Inquisitor appears.

I tell everyone that he will appear here (draws circle on map) after I speak with Blade. Get the usual okies and smilies. So go and talk to Blade and Inquisitor appears with his Mesmer pose. The fight starts, Inquisitor starts running but knowing that we can catch him we finish off the Mesmers at which point I notice that a few of the group are missing.

Anyway, so immediately start running after the good old Inquisitor and indicate the few with me to follow.

We were almost upon him (and could have finished him off) when suddenly I get the Mission complete screen appear....

FURY kicks in........ (seething while watching the sequence with of course 1 person not skipping)

Arrive at Thunderhead...

Me "You ******G SELFISH ****"
Team Member "We only needed 2 more mins, why you do that"
Another team Member "wtf"
Mr Self "yeah an i like to be ha ha YOURE ALL *******G NOOBS"
Me "Sigh"
Me "Anyways thanks guys for a good game"
Team Member "yeah, ty for that, shame there are such ******G idiots around"
Me "Anyways, cya"
Team "Bye"

So goes to show you that you can get a great team together but sometimes one dick spoils it all.

People like that don't really bother me, I just laugh at them but like I said you can get a real good team together most of the time.

Just today breezed through Hell's with a great team

Have fun all

Biggest jerk I ever met was at the Gates of Kryta. Me and my GF were looking for other people to join up with us. We were one slot away when a level 8 mesmer asks if im doing the bonus. I say that its a possibilty and he invites in and we're off.

As soon as the mission starts, the mesmer runs off ahead and starts tanking. Needless to say he dies in about 2 seconds. He starts yelling for a res and the monk ends up ressing. He then proceeds to go off and tank again. I figure he's probably a new player or something and tell him to hang back a bit so he doesn't take all the damge. At this point he spazzes out and starts yelling at everyone in the group. Yelling about how we're all f'n n00bs and how the healer sucks etc.etc.etc. and how hes beaten the game 4 times etc etc etc. Then he tells me, my gf, and the monk that we're losers with no lives because we're over 20 and still playing games. And how as a 12 year old he was better than us (no joke). He runs off to aggro everything in sight, but being a level 8 he dies pretty fast. A lot of yelling ensues about what noobs we are vs what a prick he is. He then says hes just gonna lie there while we finish the mission. I wasn't having any of that so I decided that we should all meet up at the outpost to redo the mission. I stuck him on my ignore list and told the rest of the team. My mistake was saying it in the team chat instead of pm'ing everyone.

We get back to the outpost and look for a replacement to the mesmer. A Level 20 w/mo shows up and pms my gf saying he wants to help and just wants to farm the drakes. As soon as we start the mission i know something is wrong. The wammo kept running ahead and aggroing everything in sight. At first i thought he was running the mission for us but it then became apparent he was trying to get us killed. I asked my gf if he had said anything on team chat and she said he had. Seeing as I didn't see any of those comments I realized it was the mesmer from earlier nad announced it to the group. The kid spazzed out on the group, saying he was leet and i was a n00b then went to try and aggro anything that moved. The funny thing was he sucked as a tank too. Dying almost instantly. The stupid kid yelled at the group again told them that he just liked pissing off new players then left. What a jerk.

Question though, is this kind of harrasment a bannable offense? I really dont want this kid to get away with it because he really ruined the game for all of us in the group. The first time was bad, but to deliberately come back and harrass us again? Somethings wrong with that kid. I have screenies of the first run when he was a mesmer, but not the second as I had him on my ignore list already. Can he be banned for this?

On the other hand I was once had a W/Mo in the ring of fire getting pissed at me while i was luking for a nuker.

Wammo: LISTEN UP LAZY BUTT (exact words)
Wammo: IM A NUKER
Me: Dude, ur a w/mo
Me: how does that make you a nuker?
Wammo:WHATS YOUR POINT? WHAT DO YOU THINK A NUKER IS?

sigh. I told him that he was a tank, not a nuker and 2 mins later i see a msg on the all channel.

Wammo: TANK LOOKING FOR A GROUP INVITE ME NOW!!!!!

sigh. Amazing that he got all the way to the Ring Of Fire w/o knowing the difference btwn a tank and a nuker.

I'm glad that my first post here could come in such an excellent thread. I'm in a small guild, so I don't have any in-guild stories, but I've run into my fair share of complete idiots in PUGs. I don't have a lot of time to play GW, so getting hosed by one of these guys is all the more annoying. I've more or less started playing with only hench and guild members.

I've had the usual "run-ahead" jerk experiences and all, but there were two jerks that stood out to me:

- The Necro who, for 2k up front, was going to run you to Drok's from Beacon's. Actually, this might be a fairly common scam for all I know.

- The Ranger who yelled at me for taking an E/Mo with 7 healing skills instead of a healer henchman because "Elementalists can't heal, think about it." This guy joined my Iron Mines cap run to get Barrage from Markis and then forgot to equip a cap sig. That one still makes me mad.

RotJ · Nov 03, 2005, 07:37 PM // 19:37

Today, I was in a party doing the Villainy of Galrath quest. All of us were lvl 16+, except for a warrior who was lvl 13. I normally don't like having low level people on high level quests because they take damage too fast and waste my monk's energy. But I didn't complain.

So we start for Galrath. After 10 minutes, one of the rangers leaves without any notice. We ignore it and keep on going. About halfway to Galrath's castle, the warrior gains a level. Guess what happens next:

Based on his name, I suppose he saw the market in runners and decided to level a warrior toon up so he can start making money.

After this, the party leader, who is our only warrior left, also leaves without any warning. So we're left with me, 2 rangers, a mesmer, healer hench, and my pet. We were probably screwed but decided to keep going anyway. After killing and being killed by some some of Galrath's lvl 20 henchies, the two rangers managed to run past the mob and kill Galrath (who is a total pussy, btw).
