Let me give you a quick breakdown:

funny enough on its own, this is a hidden insult. disliking people is legal. disliking ideas is democratic. insulting people you dislike is neither.

Next time just start your threads with "1. I am always right. 2. If you think I'm wrong, see #1".

Sounds promising.

ANet was 'bombared'? Beautiful.
ANet's private forums are doing fine I think, constructive and safe. My roof is being 'bombared' by rain. Woo hoo.

The what? How can a Minority 'bombared' anything? Misleading.

The first two on your list result in forum bans and closed threads (except this one). The latter are always welcome.

I read, most of what this 'vocal minority' is 'bombared'ing ANet with is being ignored. Situation Normal?

End-game. You stop playing untill an expansion/ extra content comes out - or you repeat content - or you try PvP.

According to ANet PvP is mostly fine and balanced, and all that is needed is Observer Mode and further bug fixes.
All the key problems outlined by the 'vocal minority' are not considered serious by ANet according to their public statements.

I read this as a selfish insult to the members of the 'major guilds', who are also people, and have an equal right to enjoy GuildWars and get what they were promised.
They weren't bad people. They contributed to the community as alpha members and bug reporters.
Whatever the reason - people leaving is never something to be happy about.

Besides... "Of the dead speak well or not at all."

"Exploits to Own" sounds more like 'n00btalk' then something a veteran would say. The top guilds spend lots of time coming up with new strategies to win and have fun. When they find an obvious exploit, they are also the first to report it. You see, only the n00b wants 'ownage', the true pro gamer wants a 'victory through struggle'. The outcome alone doesn't matter if the process is boring.

We are not worthy of your wisdom! Oh All-knowing-one, please enlighten us poor souls with your finite judgement of what 'may or may not benefit the community...'

That was a great accomblishment. You deserve a Medal...and a statue!

This is your masterpiece, the apex of the rant. Good job. You really showed them. Bam.
I bet you had a nerdgasm typing that.

Red Alert. Enemy Shields Down. Launch CAPS LOCK torpedoes, full spread.

Speak to us oh prophet! May the foam coming from your mouth quench our thirst for enlightenment!

Knowing when to stop is an elite you should unlock. (Me too perhaps, but this is fun).

Stupid? Spammer? Senile? Suckup? Sucker? Many are the S words. Reposte.

Umm, remember that 'vocal minority' you 'bombared'? They were pointing out that without faster unlocking, people have less incentive of experimenting when known working builds are around...

Tao Te Ching works best for me, though this reply shows I don't follow it well.
How about you?

Our Majesty the All-Knowing Prophet of Uber Enlightment has decided to resort to the 'I own' clause to support his case. Thrilling.

First you bash the people that promted build diversity and faster unlocking... and then you complain about people being uneducated about alternative builds? Hypocrisy prevails.

Somewhere deep behind the walls of skillgrind and imbalance there might actualy be a good counter for both. True that.

Many ignorant posts to counter. One life to live. This was fun. But I should stop. Have fun folks!

P.S. Pardon the cursing in the quotes. I feel your pain.

That was the best post of this entire thread, I kneel to the quality of your discussion and "heh rubbing it in his face".

[We didn't leave but exactly, the most of us quited tombs....making spiking teams(of any type) or smitting teams or fight against them was really fun because the battles only lasts few minutes and them required lot of skills, hability in the game. The spirits builds made so much boring that it was no more fun so the most of us just do GvG now...not more in sB cuz with sB we can't find opponents before 20~40 minutes. We create other guilds and fight there like Bravo Squad, Sparkling bubbles, etc.

Some of us(like me) still do tombs....but we all hope Anet will do something about the lame spirit builds that make you stay in one map for like 30~60 minutes without killing anybody and making HoH a game of killing non players but spirits...and if you get to 1v1 and a spirit build is holding it its imposilbe to take it giving the other team absolutelly no opportunity to win.

Until Anet fix the spirits i don't think we are gonna go tombs with a full sB team again because is boring.

And we are not gods that they have to do what we want like you say...we just play what is fun for us to play just like everybody else.

What i do about this is just not playing with lame spirit spammers guilds like superheroes and not talking to spammers that are makig this lovely game boring.

Lol what he is really saying is they got pwned and couldn't figure out a build to defeat this and couldn't take the ribbing of how their uberness was no more, so they quit to save face. lol

Sangui · Aug 19, 2005, 01:12 PM // 13:12

Is not a matter of beating...is a matter of getting fun at doing it.

Red Sonya · Aug 19, 2005, 01:43 PM // 13:43

Uh huh sure sure. lol More saving face? lol

Soul Shaker · Aug 19, 2005, 01:50 PM // 13:50

Heheh, make NR elite, bye-bye spirit spam.

Esprit · Aug 19, 2005, 02:08 PM // 14:08

The OP sounds like a rant about PVP, all dressed up, and just boasting in general.

Some could say that the PvE update is a long time coming too.

*shrugs*

If you don't like the game, do something else while you wait for an update.

GhostPoet · Aug 19, 2005, 02:14 PM // 14:14

The thing that is quickly taking all the enjoyment out of the game for ME..is the fact this game seems to be trying HARD not to let you form groups...why should I stand out in town for a half hour or LONGER spamming or mass-telling people hoping someone will join me? And no..I'm not using the bots..it's an ONLINE GAME.

Seriously...worst grouping system of any game i've ever played.

This is Spam Wars.

Hiawatha · Aug 19, 2005, 03:40 PM // 15:40

I don't know just what to say to the OP, but I do know what drew me to this game in the first place. It was the amazing flexibility of the skill-system, and, to a lesser extent, the friendly, supportive, and very creative community. I just feel like those things are gone now

Although the skill-system is still potentially the most diverse and well-balanced and fun one out there, neglecting to keep up the balancing work (not to mention messing with the acquisition system) has hampered the creativity of too many casual players.

I know A.net wants us to play through all their content. They put a lot of work into the game and people not playing it would feel frustrating. But, as things are now, we aren't being allowed to make full use of the BEST thing the devs gave us--the awesome skill system--and I can't see how those devs can be so complacent about it.
