Monks on STRIKE!

Thunderhead Keep dis 1 american. Come join the fun!

It's ridiculous. Stupid monks.

... well I shouldn't say stupid. But there's no reason to be striking.

I'm trying to set up a ranger/necro/mesmer strike in the same district. We never get into groups anyway, so what does it matter?

I love it, I usually do this on my own, but now with about 50 more monks helping me... Oh god this is fun.

It'd be fine if they were using reasonable arguments. However, 99% of them (I'm being generous with that 1%) aren't.

Oh, we do have good arguments. We get paired up with the most idiotic -censored-'s in all of Tryia here.

We monks have valid reason for this strike..it will spread all over the game by the end of the day. Watch :P

Then let me hear some of your arguments. So far I've heard one semi decent argument. That being that people don't like monks smiting. It's an alright argument, except in a large part people will look for the most useful aspect of a monk. That is, healing. As they are the only class that can effectively heal over a long period of time, damage is not their prime concern. I'm not saying that smiting monks are bad, I'm saying that they aren't and never will be considered a monk's primary point of use.

Another argument I've heard is that you don't get respect.

... from who? If you're complaining about the people that yell at monks after they "don't get healed" then you're complaining about the same people that everyone complains about. You're no different.

This should be a strike of all classes against the idiots of the game. Not a monk strike.

Rangers and mesmers have more reason to strike than you do. Necros too, but they've been getting accepted more often as of late.

All we want as monks is respect, and for dumb warriors to learn how to control aggro, listen when we say low energy, Need Regen!! Rezzing dont aggro the next group, dont frenzy ur dumbass to death and blame the monk when u die!

Ill aggree that all the best MONKS are in Guilds!!! Where we belong!!!

Once again. That is not a viable argument. You aren't protesting poor treatment that's specific to you. You're protesting poor treatment by those idiots that yell at everyone. You don't have any reasons to complain that any other class or person has.

Does this mean I can come in and charge 10k to monk the mission? Would that make me a Scab Monk?

(j/k of course)

Right now I'm wondering what this has to do with builds, and guess what: it doesn't. There's already this thread too. Closed.
