Whats the use of posting anyway?
Whats the use of posting anyway? Everything is known, all questions have been answered (if you look for them) and when you do want to help, at least 11 people have posted their answers before you even have the chance to do something O.o

Because obviously, the game never changes, never gets updated, or never has new content to discuss. The players never like to discuss topics of similar interest and no one new ever comes to these boards to find out information.

It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside
Well, sometimes good discussions go on. The truly unique poster is he who has a low post count full of content

What's the use of posting? Let me answer your question with another question. How could I get a post count without posting redundant information? Think about that one smart guy.

Why play Guild Wars? Every possible build and strategy has already been thought of, distributed throughout the internet, and finally nerfed. Why speak? Chances are, the combination of words you are about to utter have been spoken before by a person in a similar situation. Why exist? Could you really be that unique? You're probably just an insiginificant redundant mathematical term waiting to be crossed off the chalkboard of reality.

Short and simple: To get AWAY from the stupidity/common-ness of people ingame.
All people do is: LFG for FARMING orozar, Looking for MONK for mission/quest/etc., SS necro LF 55 monk for farming, RUNNING mission 1 plat per person, etc.
FARMING is all people mostly do nowadays, besides running, and selling stuff.
NO exploration, no fun. People changed the game to a grind festival.

And I don't know how it happened when GW had so much better ethics than most MMOs. That's the nature of people I suppose.
Concerning that exploration part of your sentance, I deeply deeply from the <3 agree with that. The Tyrian Explorer's League section of this site should be the absolute Epicentre, but its become a barren wasteland of Thunderhead outcrys and dried-up Farming Spots.

i post because i am a spammer. i spam everything. guild chat, team chat, town chat, you name it. spam is my favorite food. On this forum unfortunatley, it takes a while to spam, so i choose to spam elsewhere.... But i am truly a spamming maniac, kind of.

With 3,598(now 3,599) posts I think I can tell you the answer.
tough question, "What is the use of posting"....
I'll use one of my great examples
Imagine this....
A forum is like a huge party with lots of people, drama, comedy, and fun. Posting is like interacting with the people at the party. Some can result in flames, compliments, and other attributes not stated. Now, there are a couple of peeps at the party that don't talk at all; they are either nerds, or anti-social. They only talk in monologues when a long complicated question is asked. Do you want to be a nerd/antisocial freak?
^Joke post .
It's alright Echo... It's all about interaction

Ouga Chaka ouga! ....
I can't stop this feeling
Deep inside of me.
Girl, you just don't realize
What you do to me.
When you hold me
In your arms so tight,
You let me know,
Everythings alright, ahahah

HEY. No Blue Swed in here. And it's HOOGA SHAKA HOOGA SHAKA HOOGA HOOGA HOOGA SHAKA.
Anyways... Modest Mouse says "It's been agreed the whole world stinks so nobody's taking showers anymore."
But I say that if you think about it, there really is no point in doing anything since we all die in the end, but that doesn't mean you have to be all emo about it. Do something with your life and make it worth-while.

I personally think we post beacuse...
It's fun, It takes up some time, It enriches us with knowledge (or makes us dumber), and like i said before, it's fun.
enough said
