I'm sure there's a screen shot somewhere on this site. I'll see if I can find it. There is a guild called [CA$H] that all line up in a row in Kamadan. They all are redheaded elementalists with FOW armor and most of them have that diseased effect you get from drinking that chalice of corruption that you drink during that Brother Tsai quest. They are always sync spamming their z-rank. Supposedly I heard it's all the same guy with multiple accounts.

At least say what you're willing to sell it for not "LOL!! GOODBYE!"

Yeah, no kidding. Check out this thread for some good discussion of that rudeness:

And it's not just when they get backup healing, it's also when other come running and join in the fight to kill you. It's like the person you originally engaged is totally oblivious to the fact that they would not have killed you had they not received healing from a generous monk, or support from a nice group of allies.

3 years on and this still goes on. Whenever pvp takes place, you'll always have young kids who want to show off, claiming victory in a 5 v 1 against you makes them happy, believing they made all the difference, owning you in the process.

Oh the joys of the internet.

I've replied "offer" on occasions but in my defense, it's sometimes after I've searched and still don't have a reasonable idea of a price. I know the response to that is, "then you're not ready to buy/sell", but, after sitting/spamming for a while, you get sick of it and just want someone to tell you what *they* would accept. I blame the bad seeds for setting horrible market trends, and overall just refusing to actually bargain with others.

More AB people hate - People trying to tell everyone (yes, everyone) to get on one portal, threatening to.... leave.... if no one did >.>

Also those people who keep running into mobs and yell at the team to do so to and yelling at the healers for not keeping them alive so they can kill... bone minions.

Players who lack reading comprehension in any chat.

Players who try to open trade repeatedly, without any message, they can't take the hint after you declined the first time.

Players who PM you when you are selling an item and offer 500g less than anything you put in the party search.

I dislike the kind of players known as humans. The ones that make facial expressions and rl emotes when they are typing in chat expressing hate, anger , love. Ow and the ones that yell aloud when getting headshot in counter strike (LAN parties lol) <- example, i said lol and i didn't laughed nor smiled irl, my face was *_* If i say "you're awesome man" or i "hate you noob" my face will always be irl *_*

The 500g hagglers are really annoying, no matter how much you offer or how low the price you set for something, they always ask for 500g more or want to pay 500g less. Dude, if it costs 90k that 500g won't make it a steal.

People who call other people, themselves, or just generally use the word 'noob' in a sentence. No matter how much you think it's a cool/popular/acceptable word; it just isn't. It's the most immature and childish derogatory comment ever created. Not because it's vulgar at all, but just because most people who say it have the maturity level of a grade school-er.

El Perma Shadow · Aug 05, 2010, 03:30 AM // 03:30

I hate the people who are like " I have 5 GWAMMS. You don't have one. Noob."
No I dont have a GWAMM because I have a life and the attention span of a 3 year old....

End · Aug 05, 2010, 04:08 AM // 04:08

People who call me a what was it..."RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing fag" and "worthless" and "some random really un-inventive insult" while I'm dancing on my new para...

Or really anyone with uninvented insults...I mean...come-on try to come up with something humerus or slightly insulting without relying on random stand-bys you should only use when you're desperate.

I really do have a fun time with the inventive people...and I enjoy stomping the un-inventive people with my superior insulting skills...

sadly in this case..I wasn't paying attention and couldnt respond

1. People who think that gaming should be like work.
2. People who think that everyone are the same as them or should be the same as them, and that the game should be designed around them only.

-People who constantly whine about "overpowered" builds that aren't even overpowered in the hands of pugs (majority), and thinks that everyone who don't use an arbitrary list of "balanced" skills sucks.

-People who veto everything (other than nerfs) because they have a guild to babysit them...and think that everyone else do too....which brings me to...

3. Hypocritical People, and people who have "hidden" motives.

-People who constantly whine about skills saying stuff like "it's ruining pug grouping" and "it's too easy"...but would proceed to diss pugs at every possible moment, and behind the scene would use builds that are nearly as easy and overpowered, just not pug friendly. (And I know because I've joined a guild of one of those whiners before, one of the most elitist h*ll hole ever)

That annoys me a little but I can understand it so I don't get that angry and I'm willing to trade with people that say 'offer', but as long as they let me know if my offer is too low instead of ignoring me or saying 'notykthxbai'

Here are some more that i realized.

- I relate to the dudes who are annoyed by the "offer" guys. The annoying thing is that 9 times of the 10 the guy who refuses to name a price actually knows exactly how much he wants and you actually have to force it out of him. Just ridiculous.

- Dervishes in RA. 90% of the time played by clueless people who run around with Avatar of Balthazar and being useless. Can't for the life of me understand what it is about dervs that attracts bad and inexperienced players.

- Running griefers in RA. Thanks for wasting everybody's time. The worst kind are those who have enough clue about the game and aren't too self-centered to know when they already lost and start running before the rest of their team is actually wiped out, thus gaining an advantage.

- The people who open trade with you and put up a bunch of crap based on your profession, supposedly trying to sell stuff and are too lazy to spam the chat like everybody else.

- People who hate people who want them to run PvX bars. I don't have any contempt for the newbies who don't know better, but for experienced players to run crap, or even less than ideal bars in PvP, just to spite the people who run meta bars, and to feel special, is just annoying. There are very few people today who have a good enough understanding of the game to actually be able to innovate and come up with new and effective stuff (effective being the keyword), and not immediately after an update. I'm not one of them, and chances are neither are you, so really at this point in the game to dislike people who bitch about any bar that is slightly different from the meta\PvX is ridiculous. Of course there are better ways to get your point across than how most people do it (Screaming noob), but the point still stands.

I hate every single monk.
Monks have to be the most emotional people in the game, if a person in a party insults the monk then the monk rage quits thinking the team is going to hate the guy who caused it but really they all agree with him that in fact that monk really was an idiot.
Does the monk not realize that there are other players in the party who want to get the objective done?

I'm so thankful for monk heroes they don't drag their ass talking and telling people their going too fast, I'm never surprised they do the job better.

Tenebrae · Aug 05, 2010, 09:55 AM // 09:55

The pro-jokers. You know , those guys that when someone new in the game asks for advice or something they dont know about interface or whatever they answer "yes , ALT+F4 for that" or "go pvxwiki" and that kinda stuff and think they are funny. Bleh they make me sick , even more than thrash talkers on spamadan.

Profession: W/

j/k j/k xD

I have experienced my fair share of douchebag monks when I run other professions but thats not every monk. In fact most just keep quiet and heal but you don't remember ^^, I wouldn't leave if someone called me bad/noob once but if it's consistent abuse i'd leave of course.

I'd go as far to say there are just as many asshat warriors and stupid assasins :P. Taking a friend with 3 other heroes is much less stressful.

Edit: PvX wiki isn't a bad idea for a new player. If someone is looking for a build or asks me for advice, I generally direct them there, ask them whether they like any of the builds and then give them tips on running the said build effectively.

I don't like:

Arrogant players. Just because they've been in the game the full 5+ years, and the other person, let's say just 6 months, doesn't mean the senior player has a greater rights to play or has some kind of "ownership" of the game. We all pay to play, we're all in the same boat.

Rude players. Using profanity and other harsh language won't earn them any respect with me.

And from a recent incident: People who agree to a trade, then at the time of trade offer up much less than what you are asking and start nagging you to accept without asking if the lesser amount is ok. I say put your offer in the chat window, and we will see if it's fine.

This reminds me of a rare, but no less annoying person:

You're selling an item, and you find a buyer and come to an agreement on the price (in gold / plat.) and when you go to make the trade, they load up the window with a bunch of junk!

SpyderArachnid · Aug 05, 2010, 02:32 PM // 14:32

-People that are nice and kind and add you to friends, but then they start asking you for stuff for free over and over and start begging you for money because you helped them once. Now they feel that because you are their "friend", you are obligated to give them stuff when they want it.

-When someone shortens a word that is already short. Like using the letter U for "you". Is it really that hard to type two more letters? Also, when someone misspells a word over and over after hundreds of people have corrected them. I mean, we all went to school didn't we?

-The obvious trading issue that has been mentioned here already over and over. Can't stand when someone tells me to make an offer and then when I do, they don't respond. If you want a certain price for it that I obviously didn't offer you, then say so.

-People that have to make a profit off everything. If someone needs something, and I have it collecting dust and I never use it or if I have an overabundance of it in mats, I'll give it to them to help out. But there is those that just have to charge for everything no matter what it is. What happened to helping someone out from the kindness of your heart? I've seen people try to make a profit off joining a group. They think that their skills are so superior, that we should have to pay them to join group with them. Sad.

-PvP vs PvE arguments. I hate players that compare and flex at each other, trying to debate who is better. Just because you are a PvP/PvE player, doesn't mean you are better than a PvE/PvP player. They are two different aspects to the same game. You can't compare the two and see who is better when they are played completely different with different strategies.

-Monastery chat. Do I need to say more? Everyone knows what I'm talking about there.

-Female Mesmers. Why is it that every single female Mesmer has to wear the skimpiest combination of clothing imaginable? It is usually some form of underwear and a small top. Usually Ancient Hose with Obsidian Top. Or Luxon Top. Is eighty percent of people that play female Mesmers a pervert?

Plus a ton of other things that were already mentioned a few times. These are just my biggest kinds.
