You like to chat during quests/missions, maybe even stopping from time to time to recharge and/or shoot the breeze and/or admire the scenery
For that matter, you love strategy and teamplay, sharing knowledge and opinions BEFORE blithely running in and aggroing mobs
You never, EVER leave a group mid-mission without warning/apology. If you have an iffy connection, you forewarn people before starting.
You're more interested in the caliber of the person at the keyboard than in the character with the sword (ie, you don't discriminate based on class or level, and are willing to try and make any combo work)
You're willing to help out lower-level players, even if there's no immediate benefit to your own character

Sound good to you? Tired of partying with people who don't play this way? Put your name down. Maybe you'll find a great new friend.

As for me, my IGN is Beqxter Rawls, a R/W18 currently slogging through the Maguuma missions. I typically play late evenings PST. If you want to party up, please feel free to drop me a whisper.

Amen brother!
My in-game name is identical to here; I play evenings pacific standard time, and I am always available to help folks. I finished the PvE part of the game some time ago, but I enjoy pretty much all of Tyria . . .with the possible exception of Post searing Ascalon...so depressing!

NeoShaman · Jun 16, 2005, 08:45 PM // 20:45

Interesting topic you guys have here. Might as well throw my hat into the ring as well.

Sekkira Nendedaga Level 20 E/W (as said on the panel) Currently at Thunderhead Keep, haven't even tried playing it because I've been busy with

Sonia Mutenburg Level 20 N/Me who is quite enjoyable to play with. Currently at Elona Reach, bragging about how I done the bonus with henchies, yet kicking myself over not being able to finish the mission of with them.

Yuskei Sto Helit Level 7 E/Mo Currently in Pre-Searing, because, well.. I want to clear the north lands over the wall with someone eventually.

Wye Wanderwind

Currently up to the Riverside Province Mission.

Anarchist_Monk · Jun 19, 2005, 03:24 AM // 03:24

Finally!

In Game Name: Anarchist Monk lvl 20(mo/r), Sir Kay lvl 13 (w/e)

AM is stuck on his 19-20 time trying Thunderhead Keep with stupid ass PUGs.
Sir Kay is in The Wilds. I haven't tried to beat this place yet with him because I just want to get TH over with on AM.

I love taking it slow and talking things out ingame. New stratagies are always open in my mind, except the really stupid ones like "Monk you take the ele and ranger with you while we 5 warriors just run in and try to clear the way. Ok? Sounds good to you? No? Oh well thats how its gonna be. GO!"

Denevive · Jun 22, 2005, 06:06 PM // 18:06

Alright Beqx... I'll post.

I'm happy to offer my assistance in grouping to complete missions and just having fun. I currently have a W/Mo 20 by the name of Kord Freeman, a R/Me 17 (Denevive Viran), a Mo/E 14 (Jonas Loriander), and a E/N 9 (Sardis Velmora). Kord is currently ascending. Anyone who has partied with me knows that they can call on me for support whenever I'm on. Feel free to whisper me, mentioning ths thread.

My IGN is Vykara Valkyrie I am a W/E w/sword and fire specialties, currently Lvl 17 at Druid's Overlook.

I look forward to meeting any of you online

I want to share how this thread is working!

I met up with Vykara, and UNIK as well as some others I can't remember yesterday in game. We all traveled to Augury, from the Amnoon Oasis. Then we did two other quests. Wow! It was a great team effort, and we really got some things accomplished without all the usual troubles associated with PUGs.

If you haven't met up with some of the fine people here, you really need to! This thread was a godsend!

Rieselle · Jun 22, 2005, 08:00 PM // 20:00

Sorry for the small amount of self advertising - but please have a look at my recent post "Let's all meet in International 1", in Riverside Inn....

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=24286

I'm thinking it would be nice if we can get enough of a critical mass going so that International 1 becomes a sort of defacto RP/Chat district for nice people who want to talk, party with tolerant players, etc.

As for staying on topic, I'm a E/W, IGN: Rieselle Riesling. I've beaten the game, and have a N/Mo at Kryta, and a W/N in old ascalon. I play during australian evening hours, and most of the time in weekends. Happy to hang out with anyone nice

Lord Drenth · Jun 22, 2005, 09:29 PM // 21:29

*As the cold breeze blows across the Shiverpeaks, a lone figure can be seen on the horizon. As he comes closer you notice that the sun glints off his silver and gold platemail, a longsword hilt poking up over his right shoulder. The man appears young, but of good build and stock, his golden hair framing a hardened face.*

IGN: Lord Drenth
Paladin of Anthor, Ascended W/Mo

((I don't RP in game unless the group is an RP group - but I thought I would do something a little different in this thread.))

psycore · Jun 23, 2005, 06:36 AM // 06:36

IGN Ellaeia Psy the W/R, also have a N/Mo minionmancer, and a newb Mes in pre searing =P

I like to help people out with a good mind for skill and strategy, like Riselle I usually hide in International 1. Also an Aussie playing afternoon till late.

Wow, if this were a Guild Charter, I'd be all over it like white on rice. Anyway, this is a perfect description of my playstyle preferences. Especially stopping to admire the scenery; the game's so beautiful, why hurry? A nice laid-back group who's open to a little questing, a little missioning and a little exploring while at the same time having a tight and effective strategy would be a dream come true.

Anyway, I have two main characters; Kheledhwen Arialis (which is my IGN I believe, she's the first character I made), who is a level 17 E/Me currently in Kryta, around the D'Alessio Seaboard area. I also have a level 11 W/N, Aeslyn The Tall, doing missions in Ascalon. She just finished the Fort Rurik mission if I recall correctly. I'm typically in the International districts; less chat clutter, less lag.

Ancalagon06 · Jun 23, 2005, 08:14 AM // 08:14

IGN: Variations of Lathspell, but most often on Hades Lathspell, though I'm working on Voice of Ascalon, a healer.

I like this thread, and I hope to see you guys in game.
