In Jade Quarry just a bit ago I got someone on my side who was ranting and raving about Warriors and Assassins, then decided to rage quiet. So I went over to Fort Aspenwood, where I was told to re-roll a caster. Now, this is either the stupidest anti-melee crap I've heard in a while, or I missed some sort of memo. It's like "No, I can't cap, which is why I'm busying babysitting this Juggernaut. " Grrr...

Got yelled at in JQ yesterday for "playing Mesmers wrong".

(by some weird luck, my team at one point had four Mesmers on it, myself included, and we all had different builds that balanced each other out pretty well. No matter what quarry we went to, we locked that sucker down hard and took out anyone trying to cap it with ease. Angry butthurt losers amuse me.)

There was also someone in GToB complaining about the update, saying that "Gladiator was the most prestigious title in the game".

Confused Vizunah players are always fun. Had one from the foreign quarter not realise I was there until near the ending. Then they were asking "how did you get here? I didn't invite you!" This in spite of me talking to them and calling targets throughout the mission.

IQ has nothing to do with it, it's about being averagely informed or living in a cave... you can have an IQ 70 and still know a lot of stuff (probably not math or physics stuff, but you can still be better informed than someone with IQ 180)

@Voodoo Rage: I suppose it can make some sense. For example, if I have a physical, such as an Assassin, who's not doing anything with the adrenaline it gains, and there's a spare bar slot and a few points left that aren't used anyway, I don't mind making it /W, speccing those in Tactics and slapping "Watch Yourself" in there. Because even at low spec it's like giving everybody in the party an extra shield. And 5-10 seconds can sometimes be all you need; nevermind the fact that 4a is pretty cheap and it can practically be maintained non-stop.

Granted, your example is a bit more weird. Fall Back is not particularly cheap nor fast rechargeable nor outstanding at low spec, and I don't understand why he wouldn't spec anything in Command (he had 5 points left from 12/10/8 right?). But I'm not much into Paragons so I may be missing something.

"noob" != newb(ie).

The former is willfully doing something stupid when you should know better, and in general attacking others and behaving like a twit as you do it.

That's just defensive word twisting and hiding under term redefinition. Newb is a short form for "new player", and noob is just writing it down phonetically. All three mean exactly the same thing and all three can be used in derogatory fashion.



Now, for the topic. My newest GW acquaintance's name is... Ok, let's not publish it. It starts with Bajs. In my native tongue, that's one term for "fatso", so I've been wondering about the guy, and what the rest of the name meant. So he clarifies it means "thick and black shit". OK, -5 points for style as far a I'm concerned, but I asked him whether he wasn't afraid of getting banned for violating Anet's naming rules...

...rules he had never heard of before and didn't know existed. PANIC!

Took me half an hour to calm the poor kid down, and explain that A) It IS immature, but no big deal B) that it'd only get acted upon if someone reported him and C) that he'd only get a temp ban and need to change the name.

Took all my persuasive might to convince him that he didn't need to buy a rename in the store and if he did get disciplined, they'd let him change the name for free.


Of course, his third character is, again, named Bajs. Kid is really tempting fate, of counting on not playing with anyone from his country

That is the connotation now but I was around with IRC when Newbie changed to noob (same pronunciation). Mostly I am talking about the people that fail and call the winners noobs. Just makes me chuckle is all.

If I have the time I just type "Says the dead guy..." that is usually good for a rant and rave before they get zoned out and my team goes on to the next match.

i enjoy making an ass out of myself in ab, which is why i was so happy when anet attempted to bring it back to life.

often i will just start spamming things in all chat like "why cant i use ursan" or "GUYS PRESS ALT AND F4 FOR 10 ECTOS"

its hilarious when someone on the other team does it, but several times i have had people on my own side suddenly exit out

I always found it amazing that people would actually believe it. Even if they have no clue what ALT+F4 does, how does that even sound like it would make sense to them?

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Spamming someone while ignoring them is pretty lame. Such a tough guy yet his delicate little soul is too sensitive to handle the possibility of a response.

Some guy was wanting to buy an elite necro tome, so I offered mine for the last price I sold one for (10k). I knew I sold the previous one for more than the average rate, so I was open to lowering the price. He predictably scoffed at my offer; he offered a price of... 750g.
I had to clarify with him if he meant 750 gold. And whilst I dont sell elites often, I decided to double-check by PCing in Spamadan just to make sure I wasn't the only one that thought it was a ridiculous price (everyone that replied agreed he was insane).

When I told him that Kamadan says no (to his offer), he said 'bye'. about 5 minutes later, he comes back offering 1k, then 4k, the finally 5k. It was about that stage he became the first person I've added to my ignore list (and Ive had the game for 5 years).
