Been a while since I had one to add (soloing tends to remove this problem ) but came across this one guy who really bugged me the other day during 2 man UW runs.

He was the 55 monk, I was playing SS/SV necro. About a third of the way through my net connection glitched out & I got d/c'd (it's been doing that a bit lately...grr)
When I got it back up and running I reloaded the game & PM'd the guy I was there with apologising and explaining what had happened.
I was called a liar and told repeatedly that I owed him a free run to the UW because I'd ripped him off.

Of course explaining everything didn't help at all and he then started demanding the ecto that had dropped for me because he "deserved it" after I ripped him off like that.

Found a new monk to go with and the same guy kept whispering that I owed him, that I was a scammer etc.
Eventually had to add him to my ignore list. Wouldn't surprise me if he then went around spamming in local chat in ToA about how I scammed him...

Back to soloing or only partying with guildies & people on the friends list for me I guess

The biggest jerk I have ever seen in gw was during one of the easy shiverpeak missions. I believe frost gate. anyways, our party had just completed the bonus and had gotten to the part where you light the beacon with the blue torch when our party leader got a gold drop. we light 2/3 sides of the beacon, then the ele with the torch stands infront of the last one and says, "give me the gold." we're all thinking, this has to be a joke, but the ele starts dancing infront of the beacon. our fearless leader wound up giving him the gold and the jerk ele finally lit the beacon.

I think multiple members of the party wound up reporting him = )

I would have never given him the item...only reinforces that kind of behavior. What a loser (referring to the jerk of course).

I actually haven't met ANY jerks recently (Reason: Holidays?). The closest thing was a guy I grouped with had to go halfway through a quest.

It isn't nearly as much fun when there aren't jerks all over to laugh at.

I've actually met a funny kind of jerk on one of my IDS farming runs.

Well - I've been playing my monk - I play all kinds of builds with him - lately I've been playing as a bonder in farming teams a lot. We couldn't find a healer in the Granite Citadel though and there were several bonders advertising, so we've taken one randomly. He/she (not sure - used a female char - let's call "him" a "she" from now on for convenience - nothing sexist about it). She said she'd just been on 5 farming runs and they were all successful, so we didn't investigate what skills she'd be using - since we were a 4-man farming party, a competent bonder is a must have. We were astonished by the fact that after we've left the Citadel she cast mending on everyone of us. Ehm... Well... I've pointed out that it seemed "a bit strange", but the so-called bonder said she'd know what she was doing and she'd cast all the bonds during fights. This seemed reasonable for me as casting bonds during fights is much easier, cause you get all the energy you need through your LifeBond-Balthazar's Spirit/Essence Bond combo and don't need to make your team wait for your energy at the beginning of the level for some time while you're struggling with your energy degen.

Shortly after that we got our Life Bonds (during a fight) but I noticed a strange thing: the "bonder
herself had no enchantment whatsoever on her - so no Essence Bond/Balthazar's Spirit. Well - she didn't say anything except for the usual "I know what I'm doing" mantra. The absence of Life Barrier started to bother me as well though - 4 people, 6 bonds + 1 or 2 (depends on your style) self-enchantments - every dork can maintain that even with a Blessed Sig if he/she hasn't heard of proper bonding with Balth's Spirit or Essence Bond.

Finally we made it through Tasca's Demise, though the fights were far from smooth with this "quasi bonder". We got to Mineral Springs and as you probably all know there's a quite large group of Tengu at the beginning.

We all died. Finally I asked her around: are you even using Balthazar's Spirit? Why didn't we have any bonds, only Mending?

That's the reply I've received, which precisely qualifies for the "jerk award":

Bonder: "I'm not using Balthazar's Spirit, because it's useless and with mending I can heal you from afar. I cast bonds only during fights."

Me: "But that's not the point of a bonder - Balthazar's Spirit can give you almost infinite energy with Life Bonds - and your Protection Prayers don't seem high either. You should be able to maintain more enchantments permanently. Even Life Bonds with Life Barriers."

Bonder: "Stop telling me what to do. I know what I'm doing! You're just dumb and rushing into danger all the time!"

And she left.

Weeell - as a side note - the tengu at the beginning of the Mineral Springs can hardly be avoided. =) I may also qualify for the "naivety" award for keeping her for so long in our party and ignoring SO MANY signs of incompetence. ;-)

Mending-bonders FTW!

P.S. I SEEERIOUSLY doubt that the above mentioned bonder had been on 5 successful IDS farming runs in small groups.

I remember doing a mission with some n00b N/W who thought he was a warroir and kept dieing - yes he used a sword and shield, no necro skills. He then pmed me saying for me to heal better (being on my monk account). After he finnished throwing a few fits I left him dead on the floor and we did the mission.

Ah yeah - I remember an E/W doing about the same thing. You CAN make a decent E/W hand-to-hand combat build, but there was nothing decent about the forever-dying, insulting us for not keeping him alive, newbish and rude jerk.

Latest jerk encountered:

Abaddon's Mouth Mission, we have gone to the end and are killing the last three ether seals that essentially end the mission. Our real Mo is a very weak healer and our E/Mo has been taking up the slack.

We hadn't discussed doing the bonus or not and the E/mo and a Ranger want to do it but have been outvoted. They decide between them to let the rest of the team die so they can go back and set up the bonus, then rez us thinking we will be gutless enough to stick around and complete the mission, totally against the rest of the team's wishes. We had a leaver midway through so we are shorthanded as it is.

They run off and leave us fighting the main battle with only the weak monk healing; we all die but them. Once it becomes apparent what happened I leave the team immediately because id rather spend another hour doing the mission again than letting utter asshats get away with stuff like that.

I imagine they completed the mission without me because the honest (but gutless) players probably stayed around and waited for rez and swallowed their pride.

IMO, when faced with tardies like this all should leave the team so they don't benefit from their bad act.

I dont remember any one player that was worse than another, but I can tell you what my least favorite player type is.

The players I dislike the most are those who are intolerant of other players. People who get mad at others because they are not playing a certain profession "correctly", or those who get mad at those who take a character between 15-19 into the lions arch arena (or something similar). Personally I dont think there is a "right" way to play this game. If a player wants to make a monk and give the guy a hammer and go attack stuff with it then great (as long as he doesnt go and aggro everything). If a player wants to play in one of the competition arenas with a character between 15 and 19 then let him. If he is good at it then he will learn how to use his skills to help the team, or he will get sick of always being dead and try again later.
I dont know how many times I go to try something new and some know it all starts telling me all the wrong ways I am playing the game. Arena net made the game to be flexible and to give us as players a great deal of choices and for our characters. When it gets to the point where people can only be on the same team as a battery necro instead of a necro without any set build or a trapper instead of the average ranger or something like that then personaly I think the players need to stop playing for a while.

But thats just me. I know its not a specific player but that kind of attitude can be found in many players who play the game (and in any game, but thats just how it goes).

Note** Now I realize that there are times when specific character types are EXTREMELY useful, especially when farming, and doing high level runs like the UW and other areas.

Last night in Ring of Fire:

"What kinda mez are you?? You don't use backfire! lolololololol"



This comment came from a R/Me, who wielded a holy rod and protection icon, and was dropping chaos storm everywhere, causing mass aggro as she would chase after the fleeing mobs, and drawing other mobs our way in the process.

Just a tip from a mesmer who does all the Fire Island missions for fun (at least 30-40 times by now): Backfire is worthless in Ring of Fire and Abbadon's Mouth. Chaos Storm has always been worthless, even before the AOE change.

Announcement: WTB all that stupid Candy Cane crap that people though was gonna be worth a lot but now can't give away.


I saw this coming. When Wintersday started I was very curious about how the Guild Wars economy would change and for how long. When the collectors started offering candy canes and Wintersday weapons and shields I thought, "Geez this stuff is fun to play with but gets old after a few minutes."
About 5 days into the wintersday patch I was sitting in Nolani Academy and saw a group of people buying Gargoyle Skulls for 150g and Charr carvings for 50g.
Being the conservative person that I am I decided to make my money off of the skulls and carvings because it was immediate. I would go to Piken Square and buy the items for 20-50g a piece and then sell them back to those idiots in Nolani.
Well, Wintersday is over now, and I made an easy 200K. But, if you go into any Ascalon district all you will see are those retarded candy cane horders trying to hock their now useless investment to anyone they can.

WARNING: DO NOT BUY WINTERSDAY ITEMS BECAUSE THEY ARE USELESS.

I was getting ready to go to FoW the other day (we were patiently waiting while America took HoH). The war in our group asks me "Do you have BIP?" I say no, I'm an SS necro, but I do have BR. For about five minutes after that he's flaming me with these general things: "What use is a necro without BIP? Can't charge the monks. Noob" etc, etc. I calmly explained to him that SS does a lot more damage than nuking, and I have BR so I can keep the monks pretty well charged. The ranger finally stepped in and more or less said "Let's act as a team.'' To which he promptly shut up. My guildie was in the group as one of the monks and we were having a side convo in the guild chat... It's idiots like that who make me just mind boggled as to how they got this far in the game.

Candy canes are definitely not useless. I have yet to see a PUG where we can get to the mesmer mindblades without having a huge DP.

I agree about the various weapons and shields but candy canes themselves are far from useless.

I was in Tombs tonight looking for non-IWAY builds when I saw a guy advertise for Nukers. Well, I have this really really nifty and energy-efficient fast-casting fire-nuking build that guildies and I use from time. I figured, hey - Shutdown Mes isn't working for me, why not go fire nuker?

So I rebuild my Me/E and I hop back into the district, and the discourse went something like this:

Him: "WTF? I Wanted a nuker!"
Me: "Oh, but this is a nuker. I promise!"
Him: "You can't be a nuker without being an Ele. We need an ele."
Me: "No, really, I've used this build like a thousand times. I know how it works."
Him: "Well, this isn't the normal nuker build. I've made a few changes."
Me: "No, I mean MY SKILLSET. It's a nuking bar, I promise!"
Him: "If you're not an ele, we don't want you."

By this time, I was fed up. I told him if he didn't want me, I'd go somewhere else. (Though naturally, I couldn't, cause the rest of the place was full of IWAY.) But this really flattened my night in terms of PvP. (You'd think the guy would've at least heard of an Echo Nuker... gah.)

Went to help a friend of mine with a 5 man SF farm team. I knew a bit about it, so I could help her form a group. Trick is, I'm using a Ranger with Barrage and Life Bond, so we're not doing it completly normal. We get a stance tank (he was used to Griff farming, but he picked up the Gear trick fast enough (not like there's anything to it)) and we get this supposed MM into the group. Conversation as follows:

Jerk Mm: omg what's that ranger doing here?
Me: I'm subbing Nuke
Me: using Barrage
Jerk Mm: wtf try again when you wanna farm right
<Jerk Mm has rage quit>

I'll grant him that a Barrage Ranger is more than a little strange in SF farmin groups, but that was downright rude. Good thing we were still in town :P

Yesterday I was host for an abaddons mouth party. So as you do, I was spamming what we needed 'glf blah blah'. So this guy wants to join and i say 'Sorry we have two wars'. He was'nt so much rude to start with but he was persistant so I said 'Look im telling you man we dont need another tank'. He kept self inviting.

Then he says *characters name* sux. So now I just dont reply. He says this person sux and that they did last mission with them but they quit. So i reply 'Yes you have said three times'. Then he says 'hey *other characters name* is a quitter as well.

The dumbass didnt realise the other character was a guildy as well and i knew she hadnt just been in a mission and quit so i say 'stfu you liar, she is a guildy. Be quiet n00by Mcn00bson of the clan McN00b'. Then he says 'You suck my guild rating is 800 - something or other. I bet yours is 2500 - something. I say 'probably, we dont do pvp' simple as that. So inevitably he starts swearing at me. I type 'laterz' and set him ignore.

Lol, this thread is pretty funny ^^

Ehm, Jerkes:
Yesterday me and 5 others had a 1k run. The run is almost finished, mission complete, 4 of us pay and the other doesn't. We are still ingame, and the runner is holding the last objective, waiting for the guy/girl to pay. We ask why he/she doesn't pay: no reaction.
After 5 minutes it becomes clear: He/She ain't got 1k! -_-

Other thing, pretty funny:
Random arena's. We have 1 leaver at the start, leaving me (a trapper ranger), an other trapper and a warrior(or was it ele :/). Well, we place some traps at the gate and stay at the spawn point.
The enemy starts a bit of taunting, and say:
"Ha, we already have 8 wins" and "omg come here and fight" and that stuff.
But we are not stupid and stay where we are.
Eventually they attack and we slaugther them completely xD...
And guess what? Yes, they start flaming :P

i joined a guild when i was in pre. the guild leader seemed to be very nice. i thought i could trust him. so when he asked for some money, i said "sure, why not?" I gave him almost all my money(1,750g), and he said he'll pay me back as soon as possible. well, days go by and i messeged him occasionally reminding him that he needed to pay me back. after a week or so, i press "g" to see who is on from my guild, and i notice that the guild leader has changed. i ask the memebers where the previous leader is and they said that he took all their money and left(so the previous leader did the same thing he did to me to the other members). apart from that, nothing serious has happened. although i sometimes encounter people who randomly leave during a mission after they die.

I got onetoo, was helping a mate with the quest together with another guildie. We had no trouble getting the party together (we were doing it when europe didn't have favor) and went off pretty soon. In our party was this 55 hp mesmer / ele build which turned out to be a solo build and pretty useless in a group. Kept dying and must have used finally used a candy cane after she could only be ressed with a signet (was a female character, so I'll refer to her as she).

Anyways things didn't go bad except for her dying, we actually made good progress, until we came to the minotaur part. She insisted on tanking them alone, cause she could take em. We all aggreed and off she went. Although she could tank em, we all noticed it was going pretty slow and an ele starts to meteor shower the group, which breaks aggro. So she goes into a fit about the meteor shower and we stop helping. Next group of minotaurs she must have decided that it was indeed going slow, because she aggroed not only the next group but a whole lot more. She has a mass of the buggers around her and we all watch from a distance.... Then she dies, chaos, pandemonium, hell breaks lose, apart from a ne/mo who had kept a greater distance everybody dies. After being ressed we all continue.

We reached the last map with and were discussing strategies, the team spirit was broken and everybody ended up doing different stuff. In the progress a whole lot of those nasty creeps just before galrath got aggroed and the whole team was basically being slaughtered again. I had enough of that, I rushed past em thinking "well if these are all busy fighting I can run through to galrath and there's nothing but lowlevel bandits there". Reached galrath, echo + meteor shower + meteor shower + immolate + rodgart invocation makes a very dead galrath.... If only we had not listened to the 55 hp solo build, it woulda been a much better experience.

I was at the forge and just rebuilt my Necro...I was looking for something to do...

Heres how it went down

ThirdPerson: Looking for Group to go to SF..

I thought yeah that will do

Ass: ThirdPerson it says your offline
Third: F*** u
Third: I am not offline
Me: Yeah it says you're offline

I wasnt going to go with him now anyway. I PM Ass and say
Me : Was F*** u the first thing he said to you?
Ass: WTF U TALKING ABOUT???????????
Me: ThirdPerson offline
Ass: Yeah 2 mins am taken screens 21 minutes
Ass: Wait 2 mins I post you the link
Me: ok

Then there came a series of about 5 posts identical in essence to this next bit. Unfortunately I dont have the screenies of this part of the conversation so these arent his exact words. Just a summary.

Ass: 2mins just uploading the photos to photobucket
Ass: Wait 2 mins just changing them so you can read them

then

Ass: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...d.php?p=858633

a few minutes later

Ass: Did you see them?
Ass: Look at them or I will report you
Me: Not me mate, ThirdPerson.
Ass: No you sweared I got the screen shot
Ass: http://link to photobucket.com
Ass: number 1
Ass: Http://same link to photobucket
Ass: o look ur swearing on that 1
Me: Yes but if you look at the context of what I asked you
Me: You will see that I asked you if that is what he said
Ass: u see them
Me: I was amazed that he spoke to you that way so I asked
Ass: u sweared
Ass: u see the pictures

At this point I checked the first link he gave me. I quoted the title of the thread he made...but he didnt seem to remember what he called his post

Me: Wots this about???
Ass: he was offline
Ass: then u said and I quote
Me: No I cant see the pictures and your post doesnt really make a lot of sense
Ass: u said was f*** u the first he said to u
Me: yes that's right...It was a question
Ass: all I wanted to do is sell theses ectos and get my missus the rest of her armour
Me: What is your point exactly?
Ass: Well reported
Ass: u use norty words to my 10 year old son
Ass: hes was doing it for me
Player Ass is ignoring you

His 10 year old son was still doing it for him methinks, I have the screenies my best conversation with a jerk yet!

I have had alot of jerk encounters but this one was is the best. I was doing Elona Reach mission with my w/mo and well PUGs were few and far between. A n/w gets me into his group were he has a w/n, mo/me, w/e, and e/mo already. I don't leave since most "lfg w/(insert 2nd prof)". Well we get in mission and get to the brigde were n/w(meleemancer but a bad one) and w/n(raising bone minions) decide to fight on the brigde with the monk boss there and 6 other mobs. I then notice the n/w is nowhere near us but died trying to grab the 2nd crystal. Our mo/me dies and leaves followed by the e/mo. We all die and rezone back the n/w grabs a w/mo, w/n(different one), r/mo and Alesia. He starts the mission quickly and I stay since I say lets fight to the 2nd crystal and run the 3rd from the back. They don't listen to me at all. Well right at the start the minotaurs killed all except me. The other w/mo tells me to just die since I probably don't have rez (I always carry a solid rez(that is my whole reason for the monk 2nd) except when solo farming). I killed the remaining 7 minotaurs with no difficulty and rez the group. Moving on the group once again rushes the brigde except me and the other w/mo. The w/mo points herself as the leader but the n/w wants to lead too. N/W runs off dies by the crystal again. Hard battle ensues but we finally killed them all, rezzed and got the 2nd crystal. We go back give the crystal to the ghost and the w/mo is complaining how no one listens, this mission is easy, and she has done it 12 times blah blah blah. Well instead of heading the back way the group rushes into the doorway to the 3rd crystal of the charge is led by n/w and w/mo . They died I run off and survive with the r/mo. Aggro is still coming for us and the timer is at 8 mins where the n/w starts saying how he will just get his guild to run him through later. The w/mo is screaming why she gets put in incompetent groups and always has to do the mission over and over again. The r/mo tries to rez but get aggro and dies so I am left with my restore life and aggro waiting. Everyone leave except the w/n and alesia(thank god for henchies at least they don't leave). I tell him I can do the mission just I need his help(meatshield). I rez him and the henchie lead to the back area(near the first priest) he aggros I grab the crystal run off and finish the mission still with 6 mins on the timer
I message the n/w and w/mo who would not listen to me but I do thank them since I could not have got to the 2nd crystal without them A jerk move on my part but they will live.

I just had another 2 jerk experiences (I guess I'll have more now that the holidays are over).

Jerk the 1st
I was playing my monk (pure heal setup) and got in a group that was saying "fighting to Gates of Kryta" (from Beacons Perch). I wanted to take this character nice and slow so I join up.

We get start going and I notice that the last person added to group was a wammo lvl 20 (the rest of us were 11-16). The wammo casts mend and is off like a shot. No one knows where he went. We get about halfway to the cave and get zoned...no big deal, but everyone is saying "I thought we were fighting?!?!"
Wammo "I was going to run there anyway so I thought I'd tag along with your group" (he says this while running past all the ettins)
Everyone "We really wanted to fight through...don't just run ahead"
Wammo "Ok, I won't zone"

We get through to the next area and he is off again, and saying "when we get to Gates of Kryta, DON'T pick up the quest. I can run you the rest of the way to LA." Again everyone is saying "Wait, we want to fight through..." He zoned again whe we were about halfway there.

Jerk the 2nd
I finish Gates of Kryta, with an exceptional group even though the nec in the group died so much we couldn't ressurect her with spells only with signet (her max health with 60%DP was 5!!), and go on to Seaboard. Only one group started. I join up, again as pure healer. We head out but one of the party never actually gets into mission so we are doing it with 5 only. No real problem there.
The first fight goes ok, except that I healed this N/W (different than last mission), with a name that ended in Fooked (classy huh?), more than the entire rest of the group...by a huge margin. Second fight, same thing. 90% of my resources/time are spent on this one N/W (thought he was a tank I guess). We get close to the 3rd fight and he starts asking one of our warriors what kind of shield he is using and how much he would sell it for.
War "the one I am using??"
Fooked "yeah"
War "not for sale, I am using it"
Fooked "How much you want for it"
War "offer"
Fooked "700"
War "no, pm me after and we will talk"
Fooked "800"
War "no, pm me after mission"
We save the kid to get the bonus activated. All the while Fooked is trying to get everyone swords, sheilds, axes, etc. All the fights are very difficult for me because I am still spending 90% on Fooked.
Me "we need to call targets, we are too scattered on attacks"
Fooked *leaves* (4 left)
2 seconds later
War *leaves* (3 left)
Now our group is made up of me (pure heal monk lvl 16), a R/Me with pet (lvl 11), and another R/something with pet (lvl 13). I never broke a sweat on healing for the rest of the mission and bonus, only one pet died (just once), and the rest of the mission took us about the same amount of time as before everyone left...
Amazing what you can do with just a few competent players and no one throwing a wrench in everything

Was maybe a week ago, in competion arenas, i played as my monk.
I enter mission and come in a team with 2 W/Mo's(both lvl 20) and 1 E/Me (lvl 19) , i think, whatever the ele can still be a skilled player
Wamos first cast mending and live vicariously on themselfs, then realize that they got a lvl 19 on there team.

Wamo nr 1: omfg noob go play pve
Wamo nr 1 has left the game
Wamo nr 2 says nothing and leaves too.

I stay, just for fun, and we manage to surive for a little while but in the end we losed.

I mean... if you want a perfect team , go to team arenas... And a lvl 19 can still be a skilled player..

Was going town to town looking for little Halloween Easter Eggs
and got a tell from out of the blue in Droknars Forge.

<perv>: I gently take the ribbon out of your hair.
<me>: ???
<perv>: I let my hand slowly but gently brush against your heaving chest
as I toss the ribbon to the side
<me>: ....ok, how do you even know I'm a girl? You could be cybering a guy.
<perv> I read GWG, but there's time for talk later my strumpet.
<me> "Strumpet?"
<perv> Do you like that name my little one?
<me> Nooooo.....but I like the name Ignore List. Which is where you're going
if you don't stop.
<perv> I softly place a finger over your quivering lips to hush them, while
slowly sliding my other hand down your vestment....
<me> Ok Billy, Ignore List for you.
He then took it to Local Chat, and people proceeded to call him a child
and fling various insults at him. At which time I left.

Moral of the story: .....Don't trust whitey?

You shoulda played along with him, and pretended you really want to do it. Then, when he gets to like near end or something, say you're male, but in some lusty tone. Then, you get the satisfaction of watching him run to the other side of tyria

The biggest jerks I've really ever met are people who don't agree with me.

biggest jerk I found was someone in Ascalon City. I was selling near perfect swords all max with good bonuses +14%>50% etc etc and this guy has a look and says theyre crap (one had +7ar against melee and +29hp). he then shows me his stuff including shield and his armour??..lol. Biggest laugh was that his wepon was mince and not even max damage....some crafter sword I think and no not HoD or anything... he clearly didnt understand how mods worked and he only had 1 part of 15k plate (I was standing there in a full set)...ILMAO whats with that?

Alright, I run the Thirsty River mission on my necromancer. I usually charge between 3-5k per person on a run. On this particular run I was asking 4k. I got two people quickly, and this one person asks if I'll do it for 2k...I wanted to go ahead and do the run, so I said that would be fine. I lay down the usual rules for them: skip the cutscene, don't Leeroy, pay before the last boss. Ask if everyone's ready and has got their money, and we're off.

So, pretty much the entire mission this kid (level 14 N/Me) is running about 20 feet in front of me, pulling aggro and taking all kinds of attention from the healer henchies but somehow never actually dying. He talks to the priest first, so my minions have to catch up--annoying, but not really a big deal. Whenever I'm fighting, he brags constantly about his amazing 31 damage Spiteful Spirit...again, annoying but no big deal. Well, we get to the last part, and it quickly becomes apparent that he's gone afk...with the priest following him. Meaning we can't go on with the mission until he gets back. THAT'S a problem, since my minions are steadily getting weaker the whole time he's gone. After about two and a half minutes (-7 degen for my minions) he comes back, and we can finally get on with the mission. Kill the warrior's team in a minute fifteen, refresh my army, all is well. This fool then proceeds to aggro the ranger's team when I'm obviously about to attack the Monk, and for some reason everyone follows his lead...stupid, but then if I had to rely on them I wouldn't be charging. I kill the monk's team with no problems, and now it's time to collect payment. At this point, one person pays like they're supposed to. Another is dead in enemy territory...no big deal, he seems trustworthy. Well, the N/Me has conveniently left his money in town. Anyone who's done runs knows what that means, but I had two legitimate customers so I wasn't going to just leave and waste their time. I finish the mission, and yeah, he doesn't pay. Big surprise.

It probably wouldn't have annoyed me quite so much, except that I know he's still running around out there giving necromancers a bad name. -_-;

I have a new one. I was on my level 10 Mesmer, taking a short break in Ascalon City after finishing some quests. As soon as I zone in and begin to walk around I get a blind invite from a level 20 mesmer. He asks what magics I use, and I tell him Domination and Inspiration. He then says ''oh, nvm''. I tell him that I use a little bit of illusion, too. Well, he then wants to see what I have (a cruddy pre-sear staff), and he puts up a gold cane (9-17 dmg, req. 8 illusion, energy +3 while hexed). I politely say ''No thanks, I prefer staves" (Why would I dump 8 points into illusion magic when I am level 10? I try to spread my points out, with my class-exclusive attribute being 1-2 points higher than the rest.) He then puts up Gorrel's Staff, and I say ''Holy Cow'', while at the same time thinking ''Yeah right''. He then closes the trade and runs off, and I ask him what was wrong. He then says "All you had to say was you wanted a staff." Funny thing is, I told him that I "preferred staves", I never said ''Want''. He then proceeds to not respond to me for about 5 minutes. Well, just to experiment', I jokingly tell him that ''I would gladly accept the staff" He says ''Ok'' and puts me on ignore. Wow, he really impressed "that nubz0r" with his "[email protected] green" staff that he will "[email protected]" have. Oh well, he can keep taunting new players with his "[email protected] gr33n staff", I will be rolling in the ectos with my solo mesmer, and laugh at him "digitally".

I can be one sometimes, especially when it's late in the random arena's... I hate leavers and i tend to remember who it was that left my party, then if i spot em in my team again, I zone out asp....

So I had this mesmer who left twice when we had a wa/mo in our party, the first time he says "PALLY NOOBS SUCK", the second time, a few battles later he just says nothing and zones out.

So off i go back to random again, and guess what, the mesmer was again in my party, this time with a monk and a necro (I was ele/mes atm). So I go "WTF NO PALLYS???" and zone back to the random arena's.... so that was me being a jerk, got pm-d by one of the other guys in that team "lol".

Apparently that team won, because when entered again I was again teamed with the mesmer, I left again (he did it two times to me, so i thought i can do it two times to him), but the same guy who pm-d me send another pm "WTF?". I explain the situation and say, maybe the mesmer will start thinking twice before leaving, his response was "yea, but now you involve two people who had nothing to with that and that's jerkish". He was so right, i apoligized and promised never to do it again.... but it's just a flaw of me or something, as I loved playing my wa/mo (adjusted tho) in the arena's and got so much hassle over it and that still bugs me.

He started spamming after a flawless loss in gvg.
Even during the match he was calling us "french lemon sucker".
And if this isn't jerk enough, we are an italian guild
