Worst GW moment of all time!!
thejerk
Well I had some very good times with this game and hate to post a negative thread like this but since I am bored here it goes anyway. My worst memory of this game is when I made a 55 Monk and wasted so much money into him only to have him get nerfed the following day when they kinda ruined it with the AOE aggro nerf. Dont get me wrong I have since used the 55 monk build many times over since its one of my favorite things to do in GW but to have it get nerfed like that the NEXT day that I created it was very dissapointing. Any other horror stories that you people have and would want to share plz do so here.

Been here, heard this whine a gazillion times. Aren't we way beyond the 55 nerf?
**gets a nice cheese platter to go with the wine

When they made HA 6v6 followed closely by when they changed the objective of halls.

Seraphic Divinity
Me when I was first starting and had extra gold:
"I know! I want to dye my monks drok armor black!" *buys 5 black dyes and dyes the armor black"
"...ewww... it looks bad black =\" *procceeds to re-dye it purple over the black*
Me first starting out:
"OH SNAP! Superior Vigor Runes give you +50 health! Hmmm... 5x50= +250 extra health =D! That would make me so hard to kill! I can't believe the rest of the n00bs who play GW haven't figured this out yet *grin*"
*procceeds to save up 150k to buy 5 sup vigor runes*
*Goes to alliance chat and says: "WTH? I put 5 Sup. Runes on my armor and my health only went up by 50"
*Guild Leader kicks me out the guild for embarassing her in alliance chat by asking that question*
*attempts to salvage the sup runes off; manages to get 2/5*
Me: . . . . . -_- . . . . .
Me in FoW a long time ago:
"Haha! Finally got enough ectos to get my ele FoW armor... hmmm... the choices the choices... BattleMage Armor sounds kick---!" *Procceeds to buy battlemage armor*
Me more recently:
"Hmmm... I'm tired of my ele's FoW being purple... I want a more hard-core color... I know, Black!" *procceeds to dye armor black*
"........ $@#% it's still purple... WTH IS UP WITH ME AND PURPLE?!"
*Female character walks up to me and says: Why did you dye your FoW purple, you should dye it black, that would be kick---"*
Me: . . . . . . -_- . . . . .
Me in a more recent GvG:
*Monk dies while I'm getting a flag back at our base*
Me: WTH happened? Why is it taking so long to res her?!
Team: usdgfszngonigsnzgiknkglnkdsngknds;kgnl.nvksvsd
Me: Shut Up and Tell me what happened!
Team: *silence*
Me: I'm not making sense again, am I...?
Team: lol
Enjoy my former n00bness, I know I did.

Ya there was already a thread on this.
AJD
I don't have any really bad moments play wise. Worst moment though would have to be a guild I was in breaking up. We were all good friends at one point and things fell apart and we went separate ways. I found that to suck much more than the rest of my game experience.
Ilya Khan
I deleted my fully decked out PVE ranger b/c I mistook it for my PVP character.

OK, let's make this thread about the mediocre things that have been added....
Hmm, let's see...mini-Pigs! They are too small, hard to see.

perma 6v6 halls was the worst dissapointment for me

Factions preview weekend was a big disappointment for me. BTW, this a is a forum, threads get recycled. That's how forums work.

When they changed HA altar objectives. Definitely the most disappointed I've been with Guild Wars. I could see at least some positives from heroes and 6v6, but the new objectives have no redeeming qualities.

Folks....there IS a dervish build for the DoA....

Bryant Again
When I opened a Maguuma chest and out popped a Crystalline, maxed, and gold, with only a 14% vs. Hexed mod on it.
I thought it was a shit drop, so I merchanted it. I had no friggin' clue how lucky I was. Merchant buyback, pls.
And yes, I know that the first post of this thread is about farming, but...Let's head in a different direction, shall we?

Selling a Ecto for 10g instead of 10k, I coulda gotten more from the merchant... it was a guild joke for a while.

the doa stunt
edit: actually, worse than that was the crap they pulled with locking Factions CE buyers out of the game for a week because they delayed shipping them and wouldn't allow us access. That still burns me......

Over a year ago my dorm was in the process of laying down new Ethernet cables and having wireless put in, so all we had was temporary (i.e. crappy) wireless. My party was doing the Borlis Pass mission, and I lagged out right as the last beacon was being lit (this after multiple drops earlier in the mission). I think I ended up getting a run to the next mission because I was so angry.

I can see why you would 55-farm. I can't see how you can possibly enjoy it.

Speaking of 55, that reminds me of my worst GW moment - the day I got my first -50 HP cesta from the CoA quest (and I knew what it was worth, and that was a lot of money to me at the time) and sold it to the merchant. >_<
-Loki-
Danikas line halfway through Arborstone (Lyssa be damned! I didn't see that one coming!). So, so, so horrible. Nothing can compare to hearing that line.

Every time i play RA i put in a point in the "Worst Moment" section.

Buying Factions and realising what a pants way to work through the game it had....
Closely followed by buying Nightfall and realising what a pants way of building the enemy A.I it had.

As for the Factions CE thing...they gave you Kuunavang as a "We're sorry" gift.

8v8 had guilds hold.. for hours... HOURS... HOURS. How can anyone claim that it was not true in 8v8? Your common RC/WoH/SBInfuse backline kept your ghost completely immune from takedown. I just can't believe this was said, this is completely untrue. 6v6 took a step in the door, and I STILL appreciate it, I do not agree with the kill count method or some of the AB battles in HoH yet it is IMO way more healthy now then it was before, and Anet agrees. Drop this topic.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLL, are you a noob? Seriously this is the funniest thing I've heard written ever, did you bash on the ghost for the full 4 minutes of the match and then QQ about the amazing overpowered ability of healing seed? This post is hilarious, I really suggest you delete it to avoid yourself embarrasment. You like the changes to halls because it was impossible to kill a ghost, lollololololol, I suggest you suck less and l2p before you QQ about things you clearly do not understand.
Hell Raiser
Wow, Randomway. Let's not turn this into a 8v8 vs 6v6 thread but tell me, why do you want 8v8 back? (oh and what the hell do you mean when you say "while it is obvious that anet is working on things that are less important."? you obviously mean things less important to you, right?)
Anyway, on topic: The day I found out they nerfed solo farm with Prot Bond has got to be the worst followed by the day I saw alot of people start using QQ lol
EDIT: Also I didn't like the update that they put in Rare mat/Rune traders
