Well I can consider myself lucky at my school. 4 people(including myself) play Guild Wars. One of which is in my class. Hes a good friend but not that great at Guild Wars. IE. We were farming SF and hes iding his item during a battle. But hes a nice guy and a good friend so I kept silent.Another is a complete n00b to say the least. He bought 500k off Ebay T.T. He doesn't spend it too smartly either. A good example... Hes level 18, he buys Droks Armour (Ok) and puts a Sup absorb on a piece. Least he could do is 15k armour but he chooses Droks. Wee! Also he starts insulting my PvP character and says his Me/E is better. I ask his strat and he says "To slow them and then attack them. Then I'll run up to some place and keep attacking." Also his farming build is quite amazing The guy in my class asks him to say a farming build for Griffons. He says "All my attack skills, Sprint, and healing Sig." Well he seems to have forgotten that chances are he won't use all his attack skills. 6 attack skills= major overkill(btw he said 6 attack skills). Also seems he forgot Healing Breeze and Balths Spirit(Sorry I may have forgotten some skills seeing as I do not play W/Mos at the risk of looking like a n00b). The 4th, is my best friend. Mitchel. Hes a great friend and a cool GW player. He farms SF and hes pretty good. Were both in the same guild.
Well thats the story of The Guild Wars community of my school. Which I made since I'm bored to tears T.T
The Guild Wars community of my school

Hah!
My School community beat you!
10 people play over here at Tabb High School. All of us except 5 are in the same guild
. We know each other personally and are really good together.
One advantage to having friends that play is that you can talk strategy with them during class or during a boring lecture. It's easier to make builds that way.
Naturally, I'm the most advanced out of all of them. Just joking. I'm actually the farmer of the guild, the only one with a 55 monk.
What's best of all is that my school community is growing. I know a lot of people that have played the preiview and they loved it! I'm so thrilled

I hate my school communities. I often see something like a group of boys going, "I PLAY RS IM A PRO IM LVL 14!". And I so just want to say "STFU I've been playing RS for years, you are far from a pro." Same with all MMORPGs. Mass noobs, know far from all aspects of the game.
A friend of mine is a promising GW player (trying to get him to say post-searing as opposed to "after destroyed"). But sometimes I want to tear his mouth off before he gets the world interested in GW, and it's deja vu. "You suck! I got that jungle place's armor!"

School, that stuff is so oldschool, so over it

Hehehe... There's a few people in my class that play Guild Wars. 4 others, all told. Throw in a couple kid brothers and we've got ourselves a guild.
I wouldn't know if there's anyone else out there from LCVI on Guild Wars, but since most of the student population has difficulty turning on a computer, much less utilizing one...

You know how annoying it is to have guild wars friends in school...especially if they are complete nerds. Instead of my rl name, they call me thor. They keep saying warrior stuff about me, and one of them keeps spamming spell names. I threw an eraser at him and he shrieked "Mark of Protection!! Reversal of Fortune!!!". I want them to implode sometimes.

Lol...imagine a GW club in highschool. It'd be the equivalent of any other roleplay club though, I guess.
master_ranger_matt
I had 1 friend in Georgia who played it, and another kid i dint know, and only 1 other person in my current school that i know of who plays. Hes pretty cool, and hes a good solo farmer.

I just can't seem to get people at my work to play the game. I am working on converting my stepdaughter's friend to Guild Wars. She and her mother are still stuck on some other MMORPG.

You know.. no matter how your friend got your gold, it's his method to spend it. 15k armor doesn't do anything but present a better visual look. Some people just don't care about armor appearances, and so, to them, getting 15k instead of normal Droknar's armor would be the silly option. From that point of view, you're just wasting gold.
*cough* I will make no comment other than that it's never a good reason to make fun of other people, or be scared to try something when a large group of people are stuck with their preconceptions.
A W/Mo does not make an automatic "noob." It's how you use it that counts. Just ask any of the high level pvpers. Sure, many of them out there are, but don't crucify every single W/Mo you meet without knowing their play style, first.
I'll stop lecturing, and I'll let others take it from here. Someone patient and with more time than I have might come along and kindly explain the rest.

i had a kid in my english class that made his own chainmail DURING CLASS and listened to nothing but final fantasy soundtracks, everytime someone tried to start a conversation he gave you a look like he was gonna send you a mail bomb, scary'anyways none of my friends play video games and noone really talks about video games during class when we are all too busy trying not to hurt ourselves with exacto knives

After reading this thread, I think many of you should pay a little more attention in school. Specifically to things like spelling, grammar and punctuation.

I live in a town where there are like 5000 people. Most of the people on my age(15-20)((I'm17)) plays WoW or Counter Strike. We are like 5 people who plays GW, 3 of us are in the same guild. Howerver only 2 of us are good at GW, the other 3 are just plain newbs and doesn't undetstand the game.

If it's only a gaming forum, why so defensive?
My point is still valid in any forum.

Memories of school...we tunneled our way through the network and got Descent installed on many a computer...we played matches during lunch...now it's all work and no play...I want to be back in school...

Nobody in my college plays GW as far as I'm aware, except me of course.
And my college has like 2000 students.
I'm going to put a bulletin out around my college asking for GW players. Then I will be the uber cool gamer guy. Or the nerd. Either way.

Your 39 years old for f*ck sake...surely this is a gaming forum, maybe half of the people here are around 16 or so. Although there is a big majority that are adults.
Just chill, the people that are in school, don't want to use there grammar on the internet as well, give it a break.
If you wanna be all offensive about grammar, puncutation, etc, go be an English teacher. Just not on these Forums, okay?
Now waddle off back to your lil Running Academy.
Symeon
Well...I have a few friends who play Guild Wars...like friends who are still friends otherwise but not much...my main friends actually play like Xbox games and stuff...they suck lol
Oh, and there's a bunch of geeky kids that play WoW together...geeky really isn't the right word, but one of them stays off school alot. I don't know if he bunks off to play or what. I don't really know those guys.
There's a large bunch of the more 'cool' lads who play CoD2...I'm thinking of getting it to play with them lol...
But I keep learning of more and more people I know that play online games. I used to think I was pretty alone in what I did but knowing that other people do it makes me feel better.

I'm a 39 year-old teacher, not English mind you, but I only have one pet peave in the grammar mis-use in this forum...the use of then instead of than...aside from that...We have several students at our school who play GW. I had two students in my guild, but lost them to DAoC....their parents (also teachers) play it. All-in-all...we have 14 players I know of...mostly good kids.
KANE OG
How about Josh's "there" instead of "they're"? Not to mention "puncutation"!
LMFAO! Seriously, if you can't make fun of kids in school who should be learning this stuff, who can you? Christ, us old farts are the ones that should be forgiven. I've forgotten more English than these guys know! ROFL.

The 3 of us who play Guild Wars in my school are all pretty good at what we do, but we tend not to venture into fields of PvP other than mediocre Heroes' Ascent. We haven't had a GvG battle... ever. But we are happy doing what we do.
