People will FIND a way to discriminate if none exists, no matter how stupid the method is. I just hope GW2 keeps this in mind.

I'm actually waiting for a response of the "stoners"now with a good reason.

I was just discussing with my Guild Leader that no one has come to defend this yet. Kinda funny.

I wouldn't be surprised if the people requiring stones were also selling stones on alt accounts.

There has been a thread like this before. The stone requirement is actually a genius idea (err scam). You can not make a guaranteed pro pug. This is where it gets cool, pro sc players benefit by selling their stones to noobs who would undoubtedly find their way into one of their pugs if the requirement was not there. Basically gets good scers in a pug and guilds money for failed runs.

Wow, and I always wondered why Ghastly Summoning Stones are so expensive. The Mesmer it spawns is nice and they are somewhat hard to get, but I guess the real reason is the new "trophy"-function.
Let me just say this...
What kind of idiotic moron came up with that idea?
"Show stones" - seriously?
I don't do SCs and everytime I hear a dumb story like this I'm glad that I am not a part in this machinery of elitist players who would do everything to not fail. And if they do, they quit, rage, will blame others.
And notice how 90% of those players run around in the same fu**ing gear all the time: Chaos gloves, Voltaic Spear, Tormented Shield. Do I need to say more? Oh the irony! They do SCs to get money to buy the things that ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE AT THE SCs are wearing...
Last time I did a full-run in UW was a loooooong... looooooooooooooooong time ago, because I wanted the statue for HoM (actually it must have been 2007, shortly after the release of Eotn).
I sometimes do farmruns, but the beauty of those runs is that you are aloooone.
Next time someone asks for stones show him some Icy Lodestones. That should do the trick...

It's a funny scam. I assumed it was purely so the demand for them rose and SCers who would have many could exchange them for +1 ecto.
Genius. What would be even funnier though, is if you had to give your stones to the party leader before Dhuum. That'd be even more genius.

next in Guild Wars community:
show 3 video's from your own character in fow/uw and show you were actually doing a perfect job (ouch)
now i hope i dont bring em on the ideas, cuz people must be able to get uw/fow groups, not lose em all cuz of this idiotic idea
btw, are there any normal groups left in gw? where they either help people or let em join just to do something for FUN ?
i wont be surprised if gw loses alot more people anytime soon cuz of this
i dont like failing a mission cuz the group didnt do well, but i rather fail a mission than joining such heartless groups.....

"GLF more for UW 3/8 lf tank nukes healz" ?
I don't see much of it, and when I join them to see how far they get, it's often not past the chamber. Unless I'm healing.
If you mean a traditional team setup of 2x backline, 2x midline, x damage; yes. Physway.
Although, I'd like to know how many use Physway these days.

so not just talking about uw/fow
i know there's almost no normal "elite area group" anymore, and that there are nearly no normal mission groups, most who ask for party in normal missions (like sanctum cay and others) are people who are worse than me mostly
i do agree that there are people who are bad at uw/fow who like to join, but showing an item wont really help to avoid those
what could work better is all party members to show their stuff in HoM and show their fow/uw stuff, but still wont work for 100%, as they may have had runs or such
well, there wont be much fun in the future, unless they give us 7 hero teams, which is in the other thread

Saw this in ToA this morning...the idiocy is catching!
On a secondary note...I also went and posted....WtS Ghastly Stones 2k make the idiots think your exp! ......I sold out in matter of seconds after being bombarded with pms.

showing stuff to join, man, its like guilds which want money, imo also dumb
will more fake "pro-elitism" join gw? sure hope not, unless they make 7 hero teams possible, may actually calm stuff down a bit, stuff like this
and selling em for 2k each?? oh man, whats up with em
the game itself needs a few balances , but like 50% of the community needs brains, and having fun in a game -_-
is this a game for casual gamers, or will it become for hardcore gamers (like WoW)?
gw2 needs to hurry before gw collapses and/or changes into a nerdgame

I was just checking out the sell threads and to my disbelief there are multiple posts....wts Ghastly Summon Stones...and at 5kea no less. Imo this is one of the more creative "scams" to come out of GW in recent times.

So im sitting in guildhall....
and for no reason im getting spammed by a little certain someone .....
I assume its cause i posted in this Forum regarding the idiocy of asking for stones, as this was completly outta the blue.
Decided to tell him to have fun with his Uw Pug groups and tossed him on ignore
Thought it was a riot how his name had skillz in it though..
Its sad really the amount of Just flat out rude MoFo's that are playing.

Stuff like this just reinforces the idea that 7 heroes is good. The whole thing just discourages people from getting into groups so they have two choices. To either play alone or try and find a guild that is going to work for them. Then what do you do when your guild dies? I just can't believe the PUG situations that are taking place now. Very sad.

i joined several guilds, but a few werent very multiplayer guilds, or did NM, just HM or elite areas
and the rest i joined just died
7 heroes would indeed improve the part with fun and playing, cuz heroes dont ask to show them stuff like obsidian shards or certain stones or something
actually, they ask for nothing
be honest, where can you really find people (in gw) who are nice and like to join for fun or something?
well, i cant find much nice people, just a few, but in my experience, the nice people leave gw, or play for half an hour and leave for a few days again
or they finish up their titles and rarely play gw anymore
i hope this is a hint for anet to make playing more fun
also, you cant do anything about the people who wanna see rare items before they let you join
unless anet makes no items rare anymore, but that would kill a part of the game too....

But since obviously having teh stones has nothing to do with players skill, I find it strange that players themselves don't just ignore the rtards who demand them and create their own pugs without that requirement. Seriously it shouldn't be that hard, it's not HA, it's PvE for Dhuum's sake.

One thing you forget, some people refuse and do not like to use the hero and henchies. So your demand for 7 heros will not do anything besides make PvE more of a joke.
There will always be people asking for others to join there group, some people enjoy the company of other players. Me I can careless, heros are good for sometings and horrible for others. Same goes for players.
So 7 heros solving problems!?!?!? nonononono
Players will still be making groups and will still ask for stupid req(example stones,HA rank,Titles Maxed....the list can go on, and on)
Anyways I think this thread has ran its life......KILL IT KILL IT

the people who dont wanna play with others will now use h/h, so no differences at all if h/h changes into heroes only
it will change it a bit, of course there's too many people dumb like that, that'll never change, but it would help more people than what it is now
what i was talking about was the current community, which will go elitism with this bulls..... nonsense, which is far worse than 7 heroes, as that would actually let all people have their chances, and the ones who want with teams, go with teams, again.... no difference
dont tell me the 7 heroes would make the game less multiplayer, look at this topic, thats an absurd form of multiplaying
soon runners will ask at least 10 ecto, well, THEN i'll go to ascalon and help people getting to lions arch and such for free (fighting, not running
), and giving lots of taxi's on istan for free (as i do that sometimes)

loolololol .... useless ? take a look at this ..
had a pug group SHOW SHARDS
http://img401.imageshack.us/i/gw203n.jpg/
ended up with this ... btw had Necro and Para 100b ... so we were obviously fking around...
http://img230.imageshack.us/i/gw206.jpg/
and i understand your stand point about people buying and trading stones/shards... Fact is, we cant stop this. If someone is willing to spend money on buying stones / shards just to get into a run, then sure let em go for it. However, you must understand, there are people out there who are exp and have sufficient amounts of stones and shards. Not all pugs will lie about their exp, thus this method is flawed yes but hey at least it filters out some of the bad ones...

i know we cant stop it, BUT, its not multiplayer friendly
and gw is as far as i know a multiplayer game, cuz thats why these games are "online", not to find the "elite" players, but to play with others, and nice people are best of course
this way is a rather heartless way to find people to do stuff with, and an excuse to not give the ones not as good a chance
