Funny..how a class that is wanted in so many parties feels underappriciated.
When mesmers dont even complain for the fact that most parties dont want them for their trinity.

i would gladly wait longer for a group if it meant that i wouldn't get blamed for everyone standing in 'wells of profane', and dying as a result, after i told them i'm boon/protting. this is one of many examples.

So turn the chat off, and just monk. How is there still problems? :P
Diablo???
I wonder what that W- profession is... lol
Johnny Paycheck
you can't be serious. why on earth should i have to turn chat off and essentially make myself mute and deaf just to play. what's the point of playing with other people then?

I play a monk at times too and I've run into my share of people blaming the monk. However, there are also egotistical monks who feel everyone should kiss their feet just because they're a monk. I really don't think monks deserve any special treatment.
Oh and I just avoid the retarded groups and go with henchies or guild members and just avoid the hassle of pick up groups as a monk.

no single class in this game should get 'special treatment' but keep in mind that no class is deserving of 'special maltreatment' either...

Look, I'm not saying Monks deserve the treatment, but if you have the option to ignore it by turning your chat off, and you choose not to, then you're responsible for the situation.
It's like complaining about a TV show you don't like. Nobody is forcing you to watch it. Nobody is forcing you to keep your chat on.
Monks who feel mistreated like this, and continue to leave the chat on, most likely want to be treated like this so they can turn around and say "LOOK WHAT I HAVE TO PUT UP WITH", so people will pity them and they can feel like a martyr.
Get over it and turn the damn chat off. Or do it with henchies. Start taking responsibility for your situation and stop acting like a victim. You aren't.
edit: I don't know what everyone is worried about though. Alesia and Lina have proven very effective monks, so much so that I prefer them over players.

agreed eet... Monks don't deserve special treatment, but are also not always the one to blame for a ultimate loss... A little Regen time every 3rd MOB or so goes a LONG way to a successful mission... Nothing like seeing 3 warriors running off into another MOB with only about 60% health, and your poor monk only has enough energy left for one Dwaynas Kiss...

This is also one of the reasons why I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT ANet to at least triple the size of my ignore list. I really have no tolerance for stupidity, and it should be avoided at all costs. Only being able to avoid 10 morons is not nearly enough.
I'd hate to give the impression that I don't care about Monks, but... it's only a game, and I've found henchies to be far more reliable than players (regardless of class.)
Best of luck to you

Can we acually talk about her discussion of chapter 2. The monk strike has its own thread.
Looks like I was right about dates. Skills change march 1st ladder reset march 7th. Thanx to frog for hints.

She also showed up in TK1 latter - That was fun, we even had a drum line going
She mentioned that "Divine" glow if you have C1 - collector's edition will carry over to Factions.
Skill Balancing coming up next week some time.
If your pre-order for Collector's Edition isn't list, ask for it by name.
Seemed postive about the monks on strike and about how *poor* warriors (saying not all warriors) that rush in are to blaim and why the monks were complaining (one of the reasons).
The main developer of the game being playing monk since 2002
She's female (someone called here "Who is this guy")
And people were asking how her level 7 ranger got to TK

Those of you that complain about monks, be lucky you've never had me in your group. Those of you monks that complain about other people, just bring unyielding aura.
Not really that hard and so much fun.

And suprisingly enough, a very useful skill.

Let's get back to Gaile's comments before they lock this. Kinda excited about the possibility of "build buttons", as well as a seperate slot for PvP.
Go Monks!
