Nah, I'm usually too busy looking at "other" things than the sign over a lady's restroom, though I do remember something about a dress!
But hey, what if a girl-stick figure can't AFFORD a dress, eh? EH?! Then she's like the ones we have in GW! (yeah, I'm grasping at straws here. x3)

maybe anet should do what most mmorpg's and other online games do and that is just ignore that there is a aprils fool day or other days that happends

Actually, I have lightened up...I am just defending my position. Like they say, fight fire with fire....
I am sure anet has plenty of chapstick for you, too.

I like the stickman joke and all that says about me is I have a sense of humour. I'm not claiming it's a highbrow joke but not everything needs to be.
By the way, if this is all an April Fools joke then bravo! By far the best I've seen all day

See my point [I doubt the "you" will]. I should not have to not play because of what they did....again...it should have been made voluntary to be fair to all. |
Ok, I'll take the troll bait. *bites the hook* :3
You don't have to not play. You are free to. Gameplay hasn't changed one bit.
Oh yes, because practical jokes are always voluntary, right? xD *logs in...dialogue box pops up* "Would you like this joke to be played on you? [Yes] [No]"

It is voluntary...hit Alt+F4 if you don't like it then play another game for a day, read a book, watch a movie, shit do something else if this bothers you so much

As I said in my first post on this, I think it was done last minute, with no forethought to it, and why only lvl 20 chars? Every other event has had no lvl limitations on it, or gender limitations. So why do they do this now?

You are intentionally posting just to tick people off. That should equal ban. I don't care if this is a dummy account. I don't care if you are a mod (especially if you are a mod, you are abusing your position). This sort of behavior is a childish disruption.

Yeah, since we have male elves, and female candy...the stick people should be...male/female hybrids!! /rage

The decision to reserve this for Level 20s was made out of consideration for players. Anyone who wants to see the effect for him- or herself can make a PvP character and enjoy!
ladyflamehaze
Thanks Gaile for clearing that up about only lvl 20's being effected.
Rocky Raccoon
I was thinking(which can be dangerous) about why only level 20 characters are affected and not lower levels. Could it be that because most 20's have all the best armors to look pretty, what better April Fool's joke than to take all that away from them for one day and let the lower level players look pretty. Just a thought.
edit: Gaile just blew that theory to the wind.

Next year, aside from fixing the armor bug, the pvpers would be much less annoyed if you color-coded the stick figures. Watching red bars and mashing monsters is totally unaffected, but picking out the monks from the mesmers from the warriors, whether on your own team for pre-protting or the opponent's for targeting, is much harder when everyone looks exactly the same. So simple solution, just make the stick figures match the primary color of each class.
Yeah, it's only a day off then back to normal, not the end of the world etc., but I don't think the point is to make people quit playing for a day.

I own all three campaigns. Prophecies is the GotY edition. I bought Eotn. I also have the bonus mission pack. I Pve alot, AB a bit, and pvp little. I am official "Leet" player (yes, I have pics to prove it).
I, too, am a paying customer, but....
I love this year's joke. it doesn't interfere with the gameplay at all, and if somehow does for you, you take this GAME way too seriously. Guild Wars sets itself apart from other games because of all this fun stuff, it makes you want to play. I like seeing stick figures, elves, candy-corn monsters, snowmen, masked characters, total noobs and elitists in all the same area. put i also like seeing (for a day or two, at least) a whole ton of stick figures running around :P. I mean come on, it's for one day. It's not gonna ruin the entire game for you.
