Lore of the gods.

Let me start it this way:

If they shaped the world, then how did the Giants or whatever they are called get there?

Also the forgetton are supposed to be then first Intelligent creatures of the Earth... yet others claim this is untrue.

What of the Dragons. Why would the gods create something that they can't control themselves?

My guess I know this is Lore related and doesn't really go here but it's just silly and always made me think the gods are just Liars. HOWEVER. I have a theory:

The gods are all that is left of the true Giants.

Anyway, I would also make reference to the Seer and Mursaat...

Great temple of balthazar is periodically also the "Jerusalem" of GW.. I guess wherever people chill will turn into a heated religious debate city at some stage.

As for Siege Turtles, Karate Jesus mentioned it in another post which i found explained it to some degree or another

It would be hard to....sell that.

When playing GW (and WoW) I always think: "How could someone (NPC) dies in the game? and I just resurrect millions of times?" For example, mission condition "Some guy must survive" if he dies you lose! WHY? Could not he just resurrect in the nearest shrine as I do?

I must agree that Nika being a white skin, blue eyes girl is a 100% no sense. Specially because I can only create "chinese" characters in Factions.

I think it doesn't make sense that you all think these things don't make sense in a fantasy world. In a fantasy world all logic is possible. I'm just waiting for the money trees.

Why the hell did anet not put an AH system in GWs and if someone answers server capacity I am going to strangle a kitten for every character you used in your post. Seriously It wouldn't take much space if u limit the amount of auctions an account can use and sell additional spaces in the GW store.

Server capacity (now the kitty strangling characters fillibuster) because they wanted to conserve money, time, and space and probably for the same reasons they didn't allow extra storage space for years without paying for it. They need money income to survive and keep this game going since there is no monthly fee their only income is adding content that we must pay for. So ummmm how many kitties are going to get strangled now?

423 kitties died today(spaces count ^^). It could have been done and they could have made money back and some extra profit. Just cap the amount of auctions an account can have to 5 slots and charge $10 for an extra 5 auction slots. Obviously ANet has learned from their mistake, and they have said it was, since theirs going to be one in GW2 but like I said it could have been done in the earlier days of GW1.

I had a look through my screenshots folder for more examples of things that don't make sense.

Jatoro Musagi is in Leviathan Pits, and wants you to get a letter to his Mum ("A letter home"), but if you take it to her in Seitung Harbour, it doesn't count....

Maxeles is also in Leviathan Pits....

If we was broke, and then found a gold piece in his pocket, where did the other 249 come from?

Hai Len, our favourite loser from CNY....


Chahbek Village, the first mission in NF....

How are level 1 corsairs planning to slaughter a level 20 character? Whatever it is, it must be horrific if I have to bring a level 20 hero with me!

things that don't make sense? The fact that if I resign after I've already completed my rollerbeetle run, I get the anti leechers hex anyway. I guess it's a limitation of the game, but it still doesn't make any sense.

It doesn't make any sense that there is a minigame that encourages people to AFK it for several hours at a time.

I thought we played games for the interaction, not just to waste bandwidth and power.

Yeah. That's a bit weird. It seems the only thing the circles do is bringing back the infamous "New Year's Lag".

I can only think of one reason to do such thing, and it's some kind of testing.
Like a survey for how many people would login at the same time, peaks of connections, testing the quality of the services, benchmarking servers...

If you add a reason to keep many people connected even when they are doing nothing, more people than usual will connect and stay connected, since they won't leave when they are not playing, and you can tests such things better.

Otherwise is pretty much senseless.
