Personally, I find faction farming a waste of time and absolutely no fun. Most faction farming guilds I've witnessed (not going to mention names, although we all who know who they are) have turned it into a tiresome, political 24/7 job and they still do it with Nightfalls out. The only purpose to even get nightfalls is to get running skills. LOL. They call Guild Wars a way of having fun, but I find no fun in doing something I really get no benefit after. No to mention that many fast faction farmers I know can't scrimmage nor prevent his butt kicked during AB. I mean if faction farming is going to turn into a job I must do daily, then I should get paid for it with benefits. Since I'm happy that I have an actual real life, I'd rather stick to just seeing Guild Wars as a way to have fun, no drama. Yes, I have the Kurzick title, but I find nothing special about it.

The only way I would care to fast faction farm is to get amber. Amber to get armor and/or gold. However, the value dropped and I already have 15k Kurzick on two of my characters. My desires for armor are now towards Nightfalls and therefore I see no importance of it. I mean..hello...Nightfalls (IMO) is probably the best thing in Guild Wars to come.

If you happen to under the age of 18, wish to own a town, Factions being the only campaign you have, or you just have nothing in the real world to do (and I know there will be those arguing for the sake of getting noticed) or/and your social life outside Guild Wars has become either retarded or non-existent ok I guess you can say fast faction farming can have some "important" for your sake. If older.....no comment. lol. I guess it's easy for me to say it because I have a real life and can still see that Guild Wars is just some parallell universe where nothing is existent. It's basically as make believe as the imaginations of the Muppet Babies. I'm sorry if you guys see this as flaming, but that's just how I see it.

Like many other players I've enjoyed interacting with, we share the same goal with Guild Wars. To get by and to be done, because this game is addicting and lot of us knows we should be taking the time to get off our booties, job and leave the computer for a good 4 days. Faction Farming somewhat can take that away because certain guilds do try to dictate if you don't continue to donate 10k after you just made your daily donation, you'll get kicked out. We usually refer to these types as Faction Farming Nazis.

I'm just glad I've relieved myself from such a mess, however if this is what gives your Guild Wars-fix then stick with it.

BTW..these ninja emoticons rock!
