"You post for the sake of posting, for the purpose to ignite flames (which you deserve), and for the desire to gain attention (which you recieved)."

You said: "he is just trying to make a guildmember look good..."
If that was intended as a nice joke, but to me it's a jab. A stupid, unnecessary jab. I took it as a flame bait, and I bit it.

I responded: "You fail to argue with logic or proof of in-game screenshots, and you try to label a group of people you hardly know shows how shallow you are."

As you see in the previous post, I showed how you advocated something that was wrong. You probably didn't know it, because you probably don't bother to read ahead. You were, in fact, supporting a response to a rebuttle of a false statement. Now, here is what you said to Siren calling Ensign's reply as 'spam':

"lmao i agree 100%
but then again it is not the first time
he is just trying to make a guildmember look good "

Are you agreeing that the rebuttle was jibberish? If so, where is your proof?
Are you agreeing because you see that someone you don't particularly like was quoted? To me, it feels like that way, and that's my beef.
Were you clear on the issue of debate? My beef is with people posting what's on their mind without thinking about it. My beef is with people posting on big forums without knowing their words are reached to thousdands of readers who are still novice at this game, and they become misled. From your posting habit and your response so far, I seriously doubt you hold respect for people that are reading and trying to learn on this forum. Either that, or you are really, really bad at presenting yourself on the internet. Apology? As a ticked off reader, I'm waiting for yours.

In response to the delayed response thing, I've definitely seen it a lot when monking.

Glancing at your party bar, you can easily tell who is alive and who isn't. However, there are times when a player will have a sliver of red in his party bar. As small as you can get it, but enough to tell the difference between a fully greyed bar and that little line. So click on them to give them a massive heal, and the game seems to "complete" their death. As soon as you click their bar, the bar fully greys, and not a moment sooner. It's pretty damn annoying. Alternatively, in PvE sometimes the monster's health bar is completely greyed out yet he's still ticking, and can be for quite a while, as if he was at full health.

rotflmao you are kidding right?

i agree with sirens post the ensign's post was"pseudo-intellectual

he does it a lot lol that is a fact.


as for respecting others here I most certainly do, however tht respects does not extend to Ensign and his ilk. he is an elitist, arrogant jerk who is a moderator on these boards, yet he flames and calls people name etc. i think it os those people you should be worried about. the ones who ensign insults and flames. As you said so eloquently i am retarted so what i say whould not matter.

what a moderator says and does on these boards most certainly does. maybe you should ask Ensign for an apology, but then again it seems as if you are of his ilk, so thta will never happen

I really wish there was someway to filter out extraneous and ridiculous posts so that those that really want to learn about the game could get some information without it turning into a flamewar. Especially when hard numbers or logic are being flamed with no numbers or logic to back it up.

Maybe that is true, maybe not. But the point is, ensign is right.
Name calling won't change that fact.


And I see noone posting counter arguments... Ensign explained it to full details how it works - there is hardly anyhing to add.

Client-Server-Communication consists of latency. And in GW all stuff is calculated on the server. So your Client is always behind. Smashing buttons is the best way to get a corpse 1 on 1 with the other necro.

That has nothing to do with good GW skill, but a very basic understanding of Client-Server-Communication and some common sense will do it.

You can putrid corpses before they are even near the ground when dieing Everyone can spot this in tombs daily.

I am not kidding. There are so much junk infomation on these forums (such as what started the flame between us) that gwguru is hardly guru-like anymore.

I can care less about how Ensign makes his posts, but the specific thread definately wasn't "pseudo-intellectual spam". It had a point. I started flaming when obvious, easily tested truths are overlooked. If you do not agree with me, perhaps you need to start refining your posting techniques so you don't mislead people anymore.

Whatever you feel about Ensign, love him or hate him, it has nothing to do with me untill you bring the guild into it. It's stupid and immature. You don't see me making tiny jabs at your guild. I don't know your guild, and I won't make any comments about it untill I've played against it. My personal attacks are direct and obvious: Nailz, suck my godly flaccid, inferior-complexed wand.

well I see they have banned Salja Wachi for speaking his mind.

or did they ban him for speaking out against Ensign? or the guild IQ?

i am thinking this site is going down hill fast because of moderators and admins who have no clue what is going on.

I am wondering if lonedust is going to get banned for his last sentence.

I find it kind of ironic that another member of 'IQ" can speak in such a tone, but others get banned for much lessor offenses.

folks lets get some rules that EVERYONE HAS TO FOLLOW.


up till that point i thought lonedust made some good points and had something worthwhile to say. however that last sentence ruined all the valid arguments he had till that point.

just goes to show that you cannot hide your true self 100% of the time.
