Stop looking for shortcuts in areas that by design demand you take the long and hard road. If you don't want to take it, then don't. But don't blame the people who decided they were willing to withstand the road. Blame yourself for not wanting to do it. |

Of course there is no way of telling the difference, so (understandably) there is elitism. Despite being a good monk, I have only played HA on and off and thus have a lowly rank 5, which made it really hard to get into teams. I managed to solve the problem by persuading some of my guildies to HA during off-peak GvG hours however that doesn't really help anyone else.
Unlike back when the game was new it is almost impossible for unranked's to get any sort of rank without decent contacts. So whilst I don't think the good players should have to help/carry unranked's just to make them happy, I think all the "we've done all the hard work, let them suffer now" is ridiculous.

"This game is such a WoW clone" is probably the dumbest thing I've heard in-game, though I have no screenshot of that.

"He's a bot. Report him!!!" or something along that line.
I love playing mind games w/ people. When I'm working on something, I just sit in town all day and repeat the same message over and over that I know will annoy people. After about 30min..people begin to think I'm a bot. To add to the humor and make them think I'm really a bot, I say something like Bot v0.1 and then people respond "TOLD U HE WAS A BOT!!!" and I laugh
LOL!!!!

So I sent her a tell.. "you know, if you have the Centaur WS unlocked at the sanctuary you can get str or Tactics vs inscribable r9 with +30 hp for 5 plat. They come inscribed with 20% -5.
She says "I know,but those are junk"
I ask "Huh? Why?"
She says "They aren't Gold"

Player X: WTS Darkwing Defender q8/Ar 13, gold, 150e.
Me: Are you sure its Ar 13, not 16? ( I thought he/she might type wrong in the AD, just wanna remind him/her.)
Player X: I'm sure its not 16, do u think I'm stupid?
Me: Well, ok, but selling a req8/Armor 13 shield for 150e is way more stupid!

While reading through these anecdotes, I've recalled an incident that happened sometime after the release of Factions in the golden age of Guild Wars. As our low-level party made its way through the Northern Shiverpeaks, a party member asked me what staff I was wielding. I pinged it: it was an Insightful Spiritbinder, a bonus item. He didn't believe me, he thought that I had deliberately typed that line just to deceive him, because to his knowledge only Canthan characters could own that staff. Needless to say, he flamed me extensively for not telling him where I "really" got my staff from.
Funny, the memories that can burden one's mind for years.

I even offered to GIVE HIM 5 Warden Horns for free. He was rather rude to me saying that "collector's weapons are worthless". Yeah because the green Droknar's focus is THAT much better.... :eyeroll:

In most cities when people decide to have a 'tonic' war and start giving out tonics to random people to join in on their 'tonic' war I see people mooching tonics off people who gives it away, all and all, you're asking for it, but some gives this really corny line, something like this.
"Losing connection, entering a dark tunnel, connection loss at 20%, etc" and then either exit or zones to another place or just sticks around.
What's up with that?
Other than that, mostly everything said in any part of Guild Wars, but say what everyone wants. People trolling and being silly in the game is what keeps the towns interesting.

There is basically no way to do it without getting into a high rank guild from a friend. Or unless u can find enough low rank players that will spend time playing it, which probably wont happen

Of course i know why ranked players dont want to play with unranked players, but you cant sit there and say unranked players arnt trying.
Lets see you get to rank 6 in randomway groups. It pretty much is not possible without ranked friends anymore.

GW1 PvP community no longer welcomes PvE players because a learning curve exists, and bad sentiment (elitism) on part of PvP players dictates. What do you expect from newbies who are trying to be assholes like you?
Anyway, just forget about GW1 PvP and let it rot nicely. PvP ranks doesn't even mean shit in PvE anyway. OOh look, I have a tiger...my epeen is over the clouds! If you really want to do PvP, just wait for a few more months for GW2 PvP. It will be a blast for sure, everyone will be newbies and discriminations may not exist. Until then, go find a better game and enjoy if you are also done with PvE.

But how am I supposed to start my own group when I have no idea what sort of classes I need? Why would anyone ranked want to group with me once they realize this?

His point was valid. No one's going to run you through PvP like they do dungeons in PvE. You have to take some initiative, and the fact that many people don't is why whining about rank discrimination still exists.

I'm saying they don't try hard enough. Automatically thinking you deserve to get into ranked groups despite not being ranked is just silly. you don't need to get to r6 in randomway. you just need to not play like a retard, and you either a: slowly accrue fame and get a bambi, which in turn, helps you get into one of the less common r3+ teams, or find an HA guild with a low rank req, or b: meet other decent players to group with later, running better shit than randomway. |
Also, If there is a single team/guild that would get anyone below a r5 that they dont know, id be surprised.

A long time ago I got in to a group with this monk in a 6-man area (aurora glade HM) and got raged at so hard for not tanking that he flipped out and left.
Sadly, I don't see how I was supposed to "tank" moss scarabs with vampiric touch skills - we didn't have Can't Touch This! on any of our bars.
