It's now been said countless times, but.. If I decided to change my characters hairstyle, how would that even remotely affect you? Most of the people I commonly play with probably wouldn't even notice, let alone random people on a forum.
I fail to see how anyone could be against this idea. If you're perfectly happy with all of your characters then fine, nothing to worry about. But for those of us who would like a change of pace, it would be a great option (and money sink) without having to completely recreate that character, thus losing all of their armour, weapons and achievements.

he means your opinions are controlling (restrictive, subjugative, etc etc), not the actual act of you providing opinions. pretty obvious if you read what you quoted, so consider yourself corrected.
and no, people who want a hairdresser NPC do not give a hoot whether you use it or not. in fact, i'm pretty sure people will put you on their Ignore list just to show how much they don't care about what you do with your toons.

Hmm..Let me see if I get this...My opinions are controlling but not the act of providing them..... I never foreced anyone to read my opinions so I see no controlling issues. Have I implimented a new way of controlling people by using my human nature attributes? If people are wanting the Hair stylist and fighting for it is basically the same thing I am doing but opposite..I have simply said "I don't think it would be a good addition to the game and I think it is a waste." "To change your chars hair means it just isn't the same IMO." that just sums it all up. Operative not to be mean but I have never said people should play like me, lol. I guess I continue to argue the "Hair Stylist" because one it changes the character as a whole and two it is a wastewhen there is a system in place atm IMO<--(key phrase), and apparently no one has actually cared for my opinions (except the folks quoteing me and continue to fight against me ) , so I keep repeating my self basically to get my opinion/point through again..which still fails....*sigh* But like I said in a old post, from Anets perspective I do not see them adding this feature this late in the game but that is the way I see it. This feature should have been added after Factions if added at all Imo <--(key phrase).

No one is attacking anyone's right to hold or express an opinion; to hold or express an opinion is not, in itself, controlling.
People are discussing the merits of one opinion (which you apparently share, though I wasn't directing my post at you specifically). And I was answering a question, psycho-analyzing why people (in general) would come to hold such opinions. It is about the fearful desire of some to control their surroundings, even - especially - when that means controlling you, since they egotistically think of other people as being part of their environment rather than separate individuals with their own rights. People who advocate the mere presence of a hairstylist are in no way attempting to control you. No one is forcing you to use it just because it exists - frankly no one gives a crap whether or not you use said hairstylist.
"If people are wanting the Hair stylist and fighting for it is basically the same thing I am doing but opposite."
This is not true. What people who want the hairstylist are saying is "we want the option." What you are saying is "I don't want the option and I also don't want anyone else to have the option either." In other words, you're just fine with controlling other people's actions by effectively arguing against their right to have options and make their own choices - in this case, because it might alter your environment (as you said, "it just isn't the same".)
Of course, this is a ridiculous supposition from the start. I, for one, brush and style my hair differently every day, multiple times. Last I checked, I'm still the same person and my friends aren't disappointed in me for the chameleon that is my mane.

Those comments say "Play like me cuz I tell you to do so"? Just my personal experiences and opinions. I never said "You cannot change your char" or "You can't do that"

Paloma Song, Best post I have seen thus far in this topic by the way.

What part of "make a new char or suck it up" is your personal experience and/or opinion?
Quote:

You have just spent fifteen pages arguing that you don't want this feature, and that no one in the game should have the option of using this feature. So yes, you are saying exactly that.

I never really thought out changing my chars hair much, I have made new chars to get another style, but I am not forcing anyone to. I am just strongly enforcing my opinions, to correct you I have never said they can't change their chars hair.I simply have said that I think its dumb and they shouldn't be able to.(IMO)

That's just a tedious semantic point over the words can't and shouldn't. It's not really relevant whether you said or didn't say "you can't change your hairstyle" since current game mechanics already dictate that we can't.
The important part of the argument is that you've opined that other people "shouldn't be able to" change their hairstyles. This is the opinion you claim to hold, which is being argued against. I've explained why it's controlling and egotistical, twice, myself.

I don't recall my self telling people "You can't change your hair style". can't and shouldn't are not the same thing, lol. The current game mechanics do allow you to change your character hair (at a high cost for most).

Well then, stop repeating yourself....you've made it more that clear than you're against the idea yet you still haven't provided a decent argument to not add this kind of feature.
What exacly do you mean you mean by "still fails"? Would you consider your opinion "successful" if you manage to get someone to think the way you do?
If you're against the idea, why are you even posting here? If this was a topic about skilll balances or changing something in the game that could possibly affect people in a negative way then sure, post your arguments against it......but, this is just a topic about adding a harmless feature. It almost seems you're against it just because you already wasted your time deleting a new char and remaking it just for a new hairstyle. If this feature is added into the game, there's no way it can hurt you.....if you're attempting to flame, just stop posting now.

You appear to have the complete wrong idea. That ele has a tyrian face with a canthan hairstyle. Hes not talking about armour - everybody knows you can get armour from a different campaign. The one thing you cant do right now is have a face from prophecies with an hairstyle from factions - but those pictures show this being possible.

Reborn,I think this wouldn't be such a great addition to GW this late in the game which I have stated in some of my posts and the player should have to stick with what they chose(To answer your "decent arguement" comment).I am not trying to hypnotize folks into getting them to think what I think.I have never deleted a char to get a new style and never have wasted any time on my chars (might wanna read a little more carefully). I don't see how I am trying to "flame" people since I am just giving my opinions. Why waste time to implament this feature this late in the game? and not encourage Anet to add it to GW2?

...That doesn't make sense. How can it be "too late" to add this?

Because it's A. Two years from now, and B. I want to be able to change my characters in Guild Wars 1, not to mention C. I'll be making different characters in GW2.
And it's not that I don't care for your opinions - obviously, I *do* care because I'm posting here. I just want a reason saying why you don't want this implemented.
Oh and lol at this:
