I think its always funny to see ex-wow players come to gw and rage in kamadan or shing yea because its not the same as wow which they were expecting since all mmos are apparently exact copies of wow :P

First they QQ that WoW is much better (why are you still here then?)
Then they QQ that GW is bad(Again, WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?)

the oldy, but goldy, a dialog in ascalon city right after a character upgrades to a seared world:

"Noob#1: could someone burrow me 50 gold? I will return it as soon as I unlock Xunlai chest
Noob#2: go into old ascalon, kill some monsters. it's not hard to make 50 gold in this game!"

dialog isn't funny by itself, but the frequency at which it is observed at

New update, the fact 600g really matters when trading that amount of money, possibly the dumbest thing I've ever seen on GW.

New update: that wasn't the point, and no it doesn't matter, as I clearly mentioned before, but thanks for attempting to insult me ^_^.

I was in RA and had just played against a team with two monks, one of whom was running a Wastrel's Collapse assassin build. I pinged the player to my team and typed "assassin" in team chat. I also pinged one of his attack skills during his first chain to make it clear what I meant. Then a guy on my team - we'll call him Bob - had this to say:

...
Bob: lose
Bob: noob
...
Bob: why you call monk first hit?
Bob: noob

The "..." represent spaces where he was spamming the hexes on him (we had no healing teammates to remove them) and the skills he was using. Some skills were pinged 2-4 times very quickly during one cast.

Not really stupid but still deserves a mention:
Made a new char now and at once, this conversation starts:
Idiot: Hey sexy mamaLO
Me: Who are you?
Idiot: Jackson;p
Idiot: u busy?xD
Me: Whats up?
Idiot: Wanna do something naughty?
Me: Sure, you want me to pull my **** out and RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO you in the ***?

For some reason it landed me on ignore.. But honestly, who the heck stalks GToB for people to cybor with?

thats not stupid.... always depends on how u play each profession.

today's assassins running around clicking skills 1 - 8 every 20seconds with perma and casting other professions damage skills has nothing to do with skill.

also for PvE, not farming or sc bullshit a good support or defense paragon is faaaaar better than a sin.

Just about every conversation that gets going. If people are using it as a virtual chat room, it's pretty much what you'd expect from that - name calling, swearing, general acts of immaturity.

In LA a few minutes ago:

Random Person: "Where's Ascalon?"
Me: "It's about 500 miles east of here."
*I see his character model, and can tell by the model it's clearly a Prophecies-made character*
Me: "Since you're from this campaign you can map travel there."
Him: "Yeah, I see it on the map, but how do I get there?"

Thats kind of cute though Must have been annoying for him to run "everywhere" though.

My story:
I have a real life friend who started played GW1 with me 7 years ago but he quit before Eye of the North. About a year ago I told him I was still playing and he asked if he could use the client on my computer to log in and check on his old characters. Sure thing!
For the first time I get to see his characters from his point of view.. turns out he never discovered Runes of Holding during all those years

Doing ZB today, some Frenchie monk said something like: "I'm healing, but I will not heal anyone if I get hit, so don't let me get hit".

Sure enough, she took damage, and didn't heal anyone, not even herself.

And I was going to make a post about all the stupidity going on in Augury Rock outpost today (Augury Rock being the ZM, and Kepheck being the ZB):

Player X: LFG, ZB
Player Y: LFG for ZB

*raises hand embarrassedly* Ya, that was me too. I so rarely even bother looking at the ZB these days, so i sorta assumed the only thing "going on" in Augury was the Z-mish. Assumed someone had mistyped, and caught myself just in time. Derp.
