Who are the rudest people you've met? Could of been a misshape in a PUG. A bad experience on vent. Or some plain old weird moments.


Mine: Some very rude, unhelpful people in a PUG UW SC
Outcome: Never going to pug again -.-

So I go on my chamber sin to do a UW SC, after about 1 month of not even going on my sin. I join a group, after about 10min we get full. We switch dis to Spanish (wtf? never heard of this before). I asked why and they got all pissed at me saying I suck? I've done 15+ successful SCs and never heard of this. So they end up not telling me why (pretty helpful?). They ask me to pay for the conset, I asked "850g right?". I end up getting kick and they called me a inexperienced noob.

My mini little rant :P

What's yours?

Someone threatened to find where i live and kill me when i kept using Rend Enchantments on his 55 monk build in AB once. I laughed and did it again.

Oh yeah, Do Not Disturb flamers suck as well.

I'd have to say every member of a certain guild that will remain undisclosed.

Rube posts here on guru and numerous wisps to people i know either insulting them or issuing pointless 'Challenges'.

Some people need to grow up.

A few months ago I had the rudest but my funniest experience on gw's ever. I was bored and was abing it was Kanaii Canyon. I was on the luxon side finishing up my title.

Well that oscar meyer wiener came on tv and so i typed out the whole oscar meyer wiener song in bordem. Well someone said that I should grow up(and that may be true but I find nothing wrong with doing something like what I did in bordem. Not like I hurt anyone). Well i just said lol and typed it again(because I am a terrible instigator(sorry typo I am sure.) Well then he/she proceeded to tell me(in local) how he/she hoped my mother died of cancer and that he/she was going to find me and cut my head off and piss down my neck(wow an over used saying made me laugh again). They kept going on and on but thats about all of the conversation I can remember. I know other people started typing the song and it got a little crazy but yea. GG to me

And here was I thinking you've made a thread about me!
That makes me a sad panda!


Supposedly some guilds keep a list of unwanted people - meaning people that they do not want to party with ever again. Or ever for that matter.
And on one of those lists there should be my name. (That I know off.)
We were happily standing around in Tombs getting together a Barrage/Pet team (ages ago when that was the thing to do) - and some guy wanted to join our team. I refused his request and told him that the group decided that we do not want to play with someone named (something in the lines of) I Boinked Ya Mamma. Girlfriend hears that, loses it and unleashes a waterfall of profanities - which as a result only reaffirmed my decision in not taking him along.

Ohh and I still remember meeting Trinny (if there happens to be a known Trinny - this guy is not that guy!) at Aspy. Some people were leeching so I kindly inform the guys on my team that I do not play for leechers and as a result I plan on leeching also. Trin loses it - we get into a bitch fight - I laugh my ass off and ask him if I can post that conversation online. Trin agrees, so I post it on GWO, Trin reads it, then bugs me again and goes Girlfriend, that was you?!?!?, we laugh it off, and a few days later he joined our guild.

My favorite rude people are those who insult me when I do NOTHING bad or offensive to provoke them.

For example, after I lost an RA game, I said "gg." Somebody from the other team whispers me and begins insulting me with various violent/sexual/racist comments because I said "gg" and he thought it was an insult.

Or the guy who randomly just calls me... well things I can't say here, because he doesn't like my armor, and I'm doing nothing but stand there in town.

Or, when I was drinking ale in town with local chat off, somebody thought the "I love you man" speech bubble that appeared over my head was dirrected at them, and then began insulting me because I was apparently gay.


Those people make me sad.

In their defense, I usually consider "gg" to be an insult. It takes a pretty close match between good players to get that to mean something positive out of both teams. That's not to say that their actions afterwards were warranted.

Well, back in my noob days
(After about 2 weeks of playing) Some guy at LA wanted to buy a Gloom Shield.
He didn't say any particular stats or anything.
So I offered him a R11 Strength -5/19 +30 Gloom Shield, he was like
"Omfg what's wrong with you noob? It's R11! And not even perfect! You shouldn't play this game, instead go kill yourself you useless c**t"

Defiantly traders in Kamadan, especially when you're buying. I've seen more people explode over trade offers than the usual trash in RA and AB, it's seriously ridiculous trying to trade in game now.

Some Luxon dude threatened to "f--k me up IRL" if I killed him, so I did, and this made him release a torrent of insults. I don't remember them all, but he said something like he hoped I'd die in a fire and then he would rape my family or something.

Some people need to learn that GW is a game...

had some guy PM me standing in GoP outpost saying "I'm really stuck on this mis in HM can you plz run it for me"
so thought why not....he offered me 10k so some fast work for some fast cash - seemed good

so ran the mision and he payed up front 'cause he was AFK
took me 20mins to do the entire mis with masters (no imba builds - not him QQ over that)

he then PM me after the mission was done saying "oy nub u took way 2 long u suck ****head" - which seemed a tad rude seeming as he couldn't do it at-all and i did it for him without fuss and in a good time (well IMO a good time anyway)...

so yer thats my QQ over some noob....hehe people make me laugh

Seconded.
I've dealt with too many people who have no idea of prices then think that
R12 Fellblades are worth over a million ectos (Okay, exaggerating a little..)
And when I offer them something reasonable, I'm instantly a noob.

A year or so back, i did a mission with a pug. Anyway, all went well etc (no, that isnt the surprising part) then out of the blue, a person from the team just randomly starts spamming me with swearing, "I'm gonna kill you" type threats etc, and I had no idea why. Tried to ask and he had me on ignore, so I put him on ignore. A few months later I decided to clear my ignore list, and less than an hour after, I got spammed to shit again by the same guy lol. Still have no clue why

I remember one particular incident pretty well because it was so absurd. I was handing out freebies (greens, good rares, perfect mods and the like, stuff that fills your inventory, is too nice to merch and takes too long to sell) in Kamadan when a random warrior whispered me without any provocation (exact quotes from a screencap).

W: motherf*cker
Me: What?
W: f*ck u
Me: Sorry, I don't understand.
Me: Why are you insulting me?
W: because u are a sh*t

He then ignored me. I checked my logs to make sure that he hadn't been left without a freebie or anything. It's still a mystery to me why anybody would act like that.

My guess is that he was selling what you were giving.
Still no reason to do that though.

Once I was in Kamadan and decided to give away a bunch of stuff because I was getting pretty full. For a while I gave away mods, DP removers, greens, and other random stuff. Then I ran out of cheap things and decided to give away some consets and ectos because I felt generous. I said, "Ok the 10th person to open trade with me gets a conset" or something like that for every conset or group of 5 ectos. People begin trading with me, and I cancel all of the trades until I get to the number I said, and give the item to the lucky person. Much to my surprise, about 5 people started shouting about me being a liar and not giving them anything. I explained the rules again and they just complained more. Some people sure are dumb.

1st: I replaced my brother for 15 min on one of those ursan DoA runs. After some smooth play a guy dies at those bone things with lots of lifesteal. After ressed he started insulting the monks , calling them Jews (in german) and many other nasty stuff.

2nd: I decide to start a DoA run , and all goes well till Stygian when I and another guy die , because he didn't use consets. No biggie , but one of the monks starts raging and refuses to heal the other guy , 2 people leave and the rest take the side of the monk. I try to talk some sense , but with all this insulting we all die except the guy who was insulted. To my suprise he ressed us all , but the rest of the team left.

3rd: I was pugging the EOTN mission with lots of destroyers and there was a sin. After telling everyone that we should aggro carefully the sin decides to aggro half the map , after dying he start calling us all sorts of names and leaves.

Also not to forget the numerous times I got the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO YOU MESMER whispers in RA for using diversion and empathy.

I have only two that I can think of:

First: There was a Necromancer in FA that asked if it was possible to control your minions. I (also on my Necro at the time) replied something like, "Not really. They mostly do what they want, but will run in to attack when you do." Immediately, an Elementalist begins laughing and ripping into me about 'noob necroz' that don't know how to control minions.

Then, when the match started, I called out to the Kurzick side with the question (which I shouldn't have bothered doing), and someone answered the same as I had. The Elementalist and Kurz Necro then spent the rest of the match arguing and fighting.



Second: I don't remember what the reason was, but while I was vermin farming with my Warrior, someone was PMing me with nonsense and curses. I know we had talked about something in the Outpost, but I'm not sure what he was going on about.

When I tried to reply to him, it said that he was offline, and he continued to PM me. So, I put him on ignore. >_>



Other than that, I can't really think of any rudeness that I've had to put up with. Then again, I play H/H unless absolutely necessary.

the only one i remember, cause it was rather recent, was someone guy who kept cursing me because i got a gold lol.

he said that it was his and i "stole" it from him because I was a necro and he was a war and he thought he killed it by himself, though I was casting behind him.

then he led a group towards me and ran away and said "handle that...can't can you?"

(well i did kill them and got another gold) welcome to gw buddy lol

Over the summer, I started handing out free max damage, req 9 weapons to new players in Ascalon City. Everyone except this fellow was jovial about it:



Yes, I'm sorry I wanted to give you an item for free.

I also reported a guy for spouting some unintelligible hate-speech about Jews.

2 experiences:

1: I was warrior btw.
Me: Lfg for mission!
he: You can join us.
me: Cool.
he: Right let me see your build.
me: "shows build"
he: Seems ok... a bit noobish but it might do if you have enough swordsmanship.
me: "a bit insulted but let it slip" Well I have 13 swordsmanship
he: Not enough. You got any sup swordsmanship rune?
me: No sry I don't :S
he: Then buy one.
me: I'd rather not they are expensive and I dislike the -75 hp.
he: Just buy the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing rune or don't come.
me: I'm not going to buy the rune just because you say so
he: "kicks me and tells his entire guild to put me on ignore list + shouts on all chat:" Don't invite "my warriors name" because he's a freaking noob!!!

Kind of drastic and rude behavior over so little I think >.<

2: this was after the HoM was set up.
He: WTS MINI SHIRO
me: I can buy.
he: 100 k + 75 e.
me: Excuse me? That is pretty much for a mini shiro.
he: That is what they are worth
me: No it's not. They aren't even 100 k nowadays.
he: Yes it is. It's a seriously rare minipet! Only 50 people have such.
me: Ok stop scamming or i'll report you to Anet.
he: "puts me on ignore"

I hate those freaking scammers.....

I can see what you mean but seriously it means good game as in: Was fun playing with you . How is that actually an insult? Most people don't say it as an insult. Of course there ARE a few people who say it as in: We won, you lost, fu you c***'s. But unless they rub it in my face then I would not call it an insult.

I'm sure you do but people are free to charge whatever they like for items. Alot of people are also misinformed about the number of mini's available. Neither of those reasons make somebody a scammer.

The rudest people have to be 10 year olds playing Assassins as if they are warrior/tanks armed with kitchen knives.

While monking for a PUG for practice in Cantha, I happened to join a group including 3 "Sins". They were flying through the air, attacking different foes and refusing to attack the called targets. It looked like a "Simian Sircus" full of flying Monkeys. The group also had a fire ele that thought he/she was a tank.

I kept most team members alive and we never wiped, but needless to say, the "Sins" were fated to die every now and then. I was cursed repeatedly by them, but I didn't rage-quit (although I felt like it several times). Trying to tell them why they died did no good whatsoever.

I have only PUG'd a couple of missions since then, and none of them were anywhere close to Cantha.

Like someone earlier said...I don't keep track of every rude experience I run into. But in general:

-"Power-Traders"...you know...those black obby armor/ninja mask/chaos gloves monks that live in Kamadan dist 1, and overprice (or undercut) everything...trying to rip you off every chance they get. I agree with whoever said they can be worse than the PvP QQers. They don't get the price they want, and they can be some of the rudest people alive.

Me: WTS Stack of ToT bags 50k
Them: 30k
Me: 45k is as low as I'll go, sorry
Them: LOL they aren't even worth that much. Good luck noob. *continues spamming his wts 100+ ecto stuff*
Me: *sells to someone else less than a minute later*

-People that whisper rude comments to me when I'm on a female character. Though a simple "I take it you're gay, since you're hitting on another guy. Sorry, but I'm straight." will usually result in them immediately mapping away and setting offline.

I only remember some HA scrub (well, one of them) with a very original name (nothing to do with 300 movie) bragging at Kamadan about, well you know, his fail life.

Just saying "<--- Doesn't cares about your e-peen", started a fight, with he badly losing the argument and eventually recurring to insult my family.

Not going to mention names or give the site because I haven't bothered blanking out names. A certain person on this forum was sad enough to whisper me over a Guru debate, and the following day continued to harrass me while saying I'm gay which to me was quite contradicting to himself considering he was stalking me. Still though, it was worth trolling. 10 f*cking screenshots worth of it...
