The NICEST people you've encountered on GW!

You're just a n00b in general

/shakefist
You better sleep with one eye open from now on ....

Ohh and OF COURSE it is!
My name needs to be on ALL the lists!
/snotty French

It's a shame that caring can be lost on the human heart so rapidly.

However, nicest people - Ming, Stoney, Trubs, Esprit, Don, Dral, Talzek, Darkie, and I guess my Red.
I have more I could add to the list but those have been the nicest to me in game. Ming bought me a Drago's for my first Wintersday
Stoney farmed so that I could get a torment shield
Trubs sent me a Mallyx bow with wallow hugs
Esprit always throws his title sweets and booze at me when he could just sell it.
Don.... That's a hard one, but I like him anyways.
Dral, I think I was told to keep it a secret, but I don't remember - I just still have the little fellow ^^
Talzek farmed to assist me in getting the only FoW I want (mems top/rogue everything else) - he gave all his ectos to me.
Darkie <--- He's just a mess but a good friend
Red.

The list could really go on and on with the great guild and friends we have in place. I miss so many of them already. Some of them were like family.

Sleep? What is this sleep you speak of? :P Barely get any sleep anyways these days, so I don't think I'll have to worry about that.

One of the things I really like to do is post the Random Acts of Kindness section of The Scribe. It's great to see people going above and beyond, like the player who stayed in town for hours to answer questions about Wintersday, or the guilds who held events during the festival and gave out free beverages, party favours, and more. And although they're probably not seeking it, it's extra heartwarming to see those folks and groups called out for their kindnesses.

Reading this post is a just sweet, and thanks for starting it Mumoto, and for adding to it, thoughtful people!

I haven't met any nice people in Guild Wars.

I've met awesome people - Yoko, Ben, Vic; the core of our old guild. Sadly they all left Guild Wars (they got pissed at the poor handling of the game by ArenaNet) so even they are gone now.

once i asked a guy in my guild if he could spare like 1p so i could get new armor instaid he tells me do go to droknars forge and gives me 100P so then I spent that day getting my 15k armor(Run took a long time)i was so greatful

once a guy in my guild wanted to play prohp but his account dident have it so i let him use a really old account and he went and changed the password it upset me but i wasnt really mad beacuse it was just an old account i dident use but man some people make you not want to trust anyone

It wouldn't be kind of me to mention only one or two names because the whole gw2.hu community is freakin awesome. I love you guys, really! We are in different guilds, kurzicks, luxons but we love this game and thats what bonds us like Shiro did Vizu. Thanks Opal and Kirion for this great community you are the heart and mind of it. (Erm... It's rather Mind and Heart )

I also love my guild, the Elite Averages, so many nice people.
POT, our leader who recruited me on my second day in GW and I'm glad I joined them. It's like having a second family, a very loving and supporting second family. This guild isn't just about GW, we all know who hates fish, who is a real nolifer, who has gf or bf, who is lesbian. (Kao, I still have a crush on you )
The alliance is always changing, but the bugs, oh i mean the [fly] is still with us and we love them, as well as the Cunning Artificers [ANKH]. (Sorry guys, I can't really remember the other guilds atm ) OH, and [HARR], the greatest pirates in GW You know, i'm glad to be the part of it. They always help you if you are patient enough.

I met some really nice people in game, like UUD, who tried to teach me how to run Droks but I still suck at doing it. There was another guy but i cannot remember his name, he helped me a lot in Pre-Ascalon. Kyera who is still one of my best friends in GW, I think GW is doing missions with others for him. Thanks god for people like him!

Oh, and my good friend and guildmate Belgian. No AB without you mate, no, nay, never! It's always a pleasure to heal you while you pwn them all May the beer be with you mate!

Yeah, i know, i should have written some heartbreaking stories and funny stuffs but I always have fun with these guys. Of course you always encounter noobs/idiots/aggressive idiots but you're not forced to play with them. That's the beauty of this game, once you left the outpost, no noob can disturb you.

I feel sorry for those who haven't met any nice people in game. Join a guild or leave the one where you are now. I hope you all find a good guild, some good mates and have fun with them. That's why we are here for, right?

*smirk*Its really dosent pay to be nice,those times are long gone.

Well, it wouldn't really be being nice if it payed, it would just be helping someone for your own benefit .

Also I forgot to mention a Ranger that helped me out on my first day every playing(I don't remember the name, sorry this was during one of the Prophecies Preview Weekends so I don't remember it all that well) he helped me learn how the game worked and got me up on my feet(it was my first real RPG unless you count Runescape so I really had no clue what I was doing). Although I was still pretty noob for a while after(thinking that just because I was a warrior it made me a tank almost until after I beat Prophecies ).
Also an old friend by the name of Dogemoto. We ran a guild together, unfortunately neither of us really knew what we were doing so it never did work out. Eventually he ended up leaving for WoW (actually this has become a bit of a pattern, every guild I have ever been on officer in this has happened... might be a sign to ask for a demotion now so that it doesn't happen again). Unfortunately, although he said he would check in from time to time, he never did, or at least not while I was on .

Of course there are lots of other nice people I have met, but since it's been a long time since I did anything with people outside of my guild(with the exception of some ex-guildies and friends of other guildies) and RL friends(who are also the greatest even if they are never on) so I don't remember any of their names sorry

"Being nice" is it's own reward.

This is sadly becoming more and more true. I still help people out, but inevitably I get beggars who want money/weapons/material/all my drops.

Around Wintersday, I saw some guild set up a little holiday of their own in LA. A warrior in red played Santa; a bunch of his guildies drank elf tonic and danced on either side of him. He was giving away decent things; I got a gold bow and some sweets. People were getting really obnoxious though, cutting in line and whining that Santa was giving out crap. What'd they expect, mini-Gwens for everyone?

What's cute though is that the whiners and line-cutters got lumps of coal. Still, it makes you lose faith in humanity sometimes, doesn't it?

The nicest guy I've met...

I was asking where I'd have to go to do my Ascension missions in Prophecies.. Some guy partied me and ran me to all 3 areas. I asked him how much he wanted in return and he said, "Do the same for someone else."

I added him to friends but I never saw him again, and when I tried removing and re-adding him, that name didn't exist.

And I've tried running newbies around, but I suck at it. D:

My guild actually does something similar, except we have it with just guildies at our hall so we don't have to worry about those things :P. Starting a couple weeks before Christmas people start donating items to the one person, then we choose a time and everyone goes to the hall and we /roll to see who gets it :P I think it's one of the funnest things we do, even if I didn't get anything near as good as what I put in

There have been a few really nice people that I've met.

Once in Elona Reach, a necro was there asking for directions on how to do the mission, and how close they were to Droks. In local, he received nothing but abuse from other players, calling him a noob and a retard. I whispered him the answers to his questions while I was merching things. he found me, and gave me five max rare golds and wouldn't take no for an answer. He said "They're gifts. It's so rare to find nice people in this game anymore". Turns out he was a seasoned player and was "testing" the people in the district

When I was first learning how to monk I was very nervous about grouping with other people. I felt subconcious and very bad if someone died in our group. This was when Factions first came out there was was the HUGE surplus of assassins. I was doing Zen D. with four assassins, (yes,.. four). Three of them were rather rude, as they kept running far ahead and dying, and then blaming it on me not healing them. The other sin was very nice. She apologized for the other team mates and after the mission, she jumped on her lvl 20 monk, and gave me my first monk staff (Yay, Scareater <3)

I was working on my Ranger in Ascalon, and happened to run into a ranger. He needed a group for a quest, and I decided to go with him. We kept in touch but after a few months, we just stopped talking in general. About a year later, I just happened to ahve spotted him in AB. I pm'd him, had a nice chat, and he invited me with his guild to HA with them, despite me having no fame whatsoever

Now: I'm working for my FoW armor set for my necro, and my friend gave me all of his ectos

when i first started gw someone who was explaining things to me discovered i had been seriously ripped off by my own guild and he gave me a chaos axe. (not very good stats but WOOT awesome skin!)

My original guild leader who recruited me when i first started gave me 20 plat, then the guildies sold me crap items and took all my plat. i gave all those crap items to the guild leader and left the guild.

I have met one person who has gone on my friends list who helped run me to a few places and helped with early prophecies missions and a few quests but nothing major.

and yes i have 4 people on my friends list, and 3 of them never play. but this is how things are on online communities. its the pirate motto, take what you can, give nothing back. hence my love for heroes.

i'v given away over 100k worth of pets,mods,inscriptions to people who said they had trouble or were scammed. i have since stopped doing this. being nice is not its own reward.

For some reason, i can't stop laughing after read this.

probably because you would do the same thing to a newbie. i'm used to people like you. takes all kinds. but i appreciate jerks like you because it taught me to do things myself. i have beat all the games alone using heroes and henchies and i get all my loot by farming alone with heroes.

so thanks for being you.

I met the nicest person 2 hours after I started playing GW back in July. The person who introduced me to GW was in a hurry to get out of Pre so we went through the Academy at Level 3. My first charcter was a Necro/Warrior. I remember being dead after being clubbed to death by a Grawl near Ascalon and thinking how much I really didn't like this game while my friend was off having dinner. I didn't know I could map out. My friend comes back from dinner and off we go to the first mission where I asked why do people have numbers over their heads and what's a mission? Long story short, we met a Necro who was there to help a friend but the friend had logged off so he offered to help us. He spent the whole evening explaining things to me as we ran from one area to the next ending up in an ice cave somwhere. I really appreciated that.

Edited to add: I left a guild that used Vent to make fun of everyone and everything especially the Alliance leader and her guild. There is definitely a lot of meanness in the GW community and it's so unnecessary.

Besides people that I'm friends with I havn;t really met anyone that was nice.But I did see someone giving away a crap load of dwarven ale for free a long time ago.
