/zranking in PvP.
AKB48
Ppl are taking this game wayyyyyyy^1000 to seriously, omg he zranked me! so what? you suck at RA you get zranked, if you don't wanna get zranked, become better so these guys can't zrank you. (or don't play ra, that works too)
Simple as that

Even if all of the opposing players were 10cm higher and 15kg heavier than your best player. You do like that? Okay, don't be surprised if some people break your legs if you played bad. And then chop your foot off and shove it up your ass. |
i want more gruesome emotes that would make even mortal kombat fatalaties look lame

C'mon guys show good sportsmanship. Say "gg" even if it wasn't a good game and you steamrolled your opponent, its not condescending.

As far as im concerned Z-Rank title is only good for everyone to randomly pick on a guildie by mass impalling, good healthy /laugh. nothing else.
HA Rank emotes mean even less.
If you think you own because you /rank someone, grow up.
If you get upset/annoyed because somebody /ranked you, lighten up.

after killing them, i /zrank players in RA who...
- cast antimelee on me whole match
- lineback me whole match
- were obviously trying really hard and survived my assault for awhile but died in the end, pitifully
- i had a really close 1v1 skirmish with
- just annoyed me in general
and i get zkeys the honorable way, with balthazar faction.

lol zrank emotes should have been for the gladiator or champion title, seriously why award points for opening a chest?
"Yeah I'm the best pro around, I've opened several thousand Z chests and have a title to prove it, feel my 1337ness"

/zrank and /rank have their incredible uses in AB. they pull aggro.

If anyone here does it, just give me an honest answer. Does it make you feel superior or what? Why can't we just keep quiet and be a good sport about it?

Why can't we just keep quiet and be a good sport about it? People can do whatever they want to do. You can choose to ignore it or take it to heart, they could care less. If you want good sportsmanship, I recommend you go do PvE otherwise do not pose these questions.

I personally say gg in every match as soon as it is over. When I consider the match 'over' doesn't always coincide with when the game is physically complete, so people call me an ass sometime.
In reality, they're all being bad mannered to me for not leaving when they've already lost.

Except when you get tripped, you get physically injured. When you get (z)ranked, you get no injury, unless you're a huge carebear and you get emotionally scarred. In that case, you shouldn't be playing a competitive game.

If you kick someone weaker than you and you know he's weaker, it isn't really okay.
Next up: Shouting at small babies to express your superiority.
Avarre
Yeah, because flashing an insignificant rank is somehow equated to verbally assaulting someone.
Make up your minds. Either the rank emote means something, in which case they have every right to hit you with it as they've earned it, or it's meaningless and you have no reason to care.
It seems more that people can't handle not being led around with their hands held.

Too bad people scamming in-game are also liars and thieves irl. Not like car thieves, more like shoplifting.
It's really hard to change your behaviour if you got used to it after X (maybe XX sometimes) years.

If you kick someone in RL and he's weaker than you, that's a dick move and can really hurt the guy.
If you zrank someone who sucks more than you, that's gloating, doesn't hurt them at all, and *shouldn't* emotionally scar them or anything.
Real life =/= not real life
Although I might be able to see where you're coming from; but in that case, I'd say fire the guy you pay to punch you in the face every time you get zranked.

the only thing that would make me laugh harder when they Zrank me is if they danced on me after they zrank me. zrank is just the lame version of rank. Rank takes skill to get, even if your just running touchers. Zrank might as well be an ebay emote, since you can just get the gold, buy the keys, open the chest, and than think you got skills 'cus you have a gold spear with other weps, that wont do anything but make your e-peen bigger... or at least thats what you think.

Quick to defend our beliefs aren't we? If I were to think like you, I'd say either you're emotionally scarred, or it's meaningless and you have no reason to care.

I'm not necessarily on the side of keeping the emotes, but they're not that big of a deal.

The people comparing the ranking to real-life situations are pretty hilarious. xD
Do you give the Charr that speach too, when they gloat you? :P
If you don't like being /ranked, you can 1: Not die so much. 2: Get a higher rank then them and /rank them back. I don't see what the issue is. If you die a lot, and don't like the /rank being flashed at you...learn to not die so much, or play PvE instead (though you might want to avoid the Charr, as their gloat might offend you).

Nobody responded to my point that this simply proves PvE players are elitist bastards.

This Thread is epic fail, QQ someone ranked on my corpse omg. WHO CARES! Thats what the emote is there for. And also not everybody buys gold I have a Zrank and I never bought jack, I also have never ranked it on a corpse but reading this makes me want to. quit being little whiney haters.

I just want to see ArenaNet implement a crouching animation. Then people would complain about teabagging. That would atleast be funny.

Turns out it was just harmless fun (no sexual assault or anything like that, just re-enacting the movements or whatever) but the carebears behind the newspaper had to make a story out of it...

I've scammed people, and last time I checked I'm not a liar and theif irl. So gtfo with your ridiculous theories.

don't care actually, but find it extremely hilarious when players zrank you after you've kill them a thousand time 1vs1, after which they bring their buddies, kills your character and zrank you. some of those have tigers and bambi emotes too hahahaha
