The Biggest Jerk You Ever Encountered in GW (no posting names)

OH MY GOD. that is the BEST idea ever. brilliant, too i might add. i have to start doing that whenever i go to the ToA. i wish i could see the look on their faces when that happens to them.

Oh, a screenshot is worth a thousand words ... I've done it twice now, and the reactions are just great. I'm pretty sure I screened the most recent one, and will be sure to so to anything in the future. When I get home from work i'll check and re-post

Normal sequence of events:

Lord Iowerth: I'm using Vital Blessing on Stupid Scammer Monk!
Stupid Scammer Monk: OMGWTFHAXXOR!
*dies*
Party: HAHAHAHA
Player Stupid Scammer Monk has left the game

yes, plz post screenshots. usually their reactions are hilarious.. as when they try to infiltrate parties they want to be as unobstrusive as possible so they're always mysteriously silent.

last time i had 2 solo mo/w in my party, leaving me as the only real healer (mo/w no less) to take care of 2 stanceless w/mo's and 4 casters. of course the soloers they run off and aggro as soon as they zone in

throw a vital blessing on each of them and they coudn't stop spamming chat. omfg, you noob!
get it off of me!
i have low hp!
omfg, who cast vital blessing on me!
noob!
noob!
help me!
*solomonk* is dead!
*solomonk* is dead!
*solomonk* is dead!
omg!

someone res sigs one of them. i 'm a monk and i can't let them die, muhaha. another vital blessing.

omfg! etc etc

turns out the necro team leader had no clue. one of the mo/w had said they would tank.. even brought rebirth and spellbreaker, so i knew they were not trying to run off and solo on their own. the other solo monk however could not answer my questions about why he did not say anything knowing full well that there were 2 wars in our group.


anyway, the moral of the story is.. bring vital blessing for a good time and take lots of screencaps. i should have lol

I just started i ranger and realized that rangers have a similar skill to vital that would mess up the 55 solo monk.

Beast Mastery : Symbiosis
Create a level 1-8 Spirit. For creatures within its range, for each enchantment on a creature, that creature\'s maximum health is increased by 27-125. This Spirit dies after 30-126 seconds.

dunno how many of you remember my post in this thread about the guy who said he'd rape me and kill my bf... well he tried it on again, with some very adult, pornographic descriptions, and finally some racist comments (against blacks, despite me being white irl and ingame). I reported him with screenshots... guess what? Anet did nothing. He's still online today, 3 days after they sent their "privacy policy, has been dealt with" message.

Load of bull. My view of Anet went down the drain.

I'd post the screenshots here but I don't want kids to see that kinda thing.

There we go, all names removed

tbh, this sort of thing doesn't annoy me enough for me to want to get in a fight with some about it such as how u did in the above SS.

unfortunately I can't see this kind of problem EVER going away, but like art_ says, its just a small problem ^^. Best way to go about it is only buying from people in the trade channel and try and get your guild/friends to follow suit

Since Anet doesn't inforce the spamming rules, do what everyone else does: Turn the All channel off in spam cities.

I hate the trade channel and have it turned off. I often turn off the local chat to because of the spam and stupidity. Pre Searing is pretty bad with people spamming "WTS (proceeds to list all items required to craft new armor or quest items) " I wish as soon as someon posted WTS or WTB... it posts it in the trade channel. It can edit swearing, how come it can't do this?

When you are bored, have crashing internet, and can't do much else. You take a whack at taking down the ToS breakers. Think if alot of people took pics like this and sent them to anet, we would have alot less of it.

i turn off emotes and trade channel i keep on all/guild/and teams i only turn trade on if im looking for buyers for my excess materials

Its to the point of exhuastion, I have a full ignore list, all of people who spam the local channel. The trade channel is empty and I am starting to see people shout lfg in it because no one is even listening in the local channel. The spam is insane, nonstop, and insulting. I personally wonder if they just can't read or are they like this in real life.

Some guildies and I were running around in Team Arenas and completely smoked another guild team 14-0 on the Fire Isle map. One of their boys had a mouth on him, blah de blah, we took it to GvG.

And then we smoked them in under 10.

Me: "Anything else to say?"
Him: "OMFG Go kill urself!"
Me: "What?"
Him: "Just kill urself, ur so dumb, just get a gun and kill urself, omg."
Me: "What does that have to do with your getting owned?"
Him: "GAWD NEWB just kill urself! Hang urself cut ur wrists or sumthing! Ur so gay just kill urself!!1!11"
Me: "Are you alright?"
Him: "U suck at gw newb kill urself. Kill urself do it!"

Yeah, that was a good day.

Whoa, whoa... waitaminute waitaminute, hold on...! is he saying it so HE does it or something? Whoa, some people need to get out more, I swear... -.-

I ran into a couple today in Hell's Precipice. The first was a Monk who was LFG, but said he wouldn't DO anything if invited into a party ("I will not heal you...") even admited that he was a leech! (an honest jerk :/)

And then, after 1/2 an hour trying to get in a group (Tanks are a dime-a-dozen there LOL) I finally got going with a group. While in mission, we had a Necro that decided in the middle of a battle with a group of Titans & sparks, that my character's name was "childish, n00bish, and thought up by a 3-year old, etc." So ,there we are, fighting for our lives, and this knothead's TYPING INSULTS! And this coming from a guy with a name straight out of "Star Wars" And no, it wasn't "Legolas Skywalker." :P I died 3 times in that battle thanks to this silliness & the ranger not keeping winter up.

DISCLAIMER: I know of no person, nor have I ever seen anyone, with the name "Leoglas Skywalker."

Lol. Yeah. The idiots who bitch about names are a real nightmare at GW.

I've got a name story: My guild leader!

Ok, try to bear with me, as I don't want to reveal his actual name, but if I reference it too closely, then I might as well just say it (he may or may not be that imaginative with names. Good thing the game isn't centered around this). Ok...

His name is the name of a particular, well known race from standard RPG circles. His character, on the other hand, looks NOTHING like his name suggests. And, every now and then, some "person" with too much time on their nerdy little hands mentions this. This particular act is becoming very nearly a plague to him, as he now will boot people from groups for making this amazingly over-used joke. I think it's hilarious, but I also don't really care. A name is a name, right?

Replying to a post by Gaile Gray, in the above quoted fashion, takes the price

OK heres my new one from today. Hubby and I are standing in Ring of Fire looking for a group. First one just really sucked we all died.

Back in town we have 6/8 and no monks (good luck finding any there). Then we see two monks a prot and a healer lfg but they would only join if there was a bat necro. Now usually i completly hate the job of bat. Don't get me wrong I keep my lesser blood ritual on at all times for monks ele etc. but for my elite I love my ss.

Just to be nice and to help get everyone through the mission i changed to full bat. Everything starts off ok untill we get to the ethral seals (for those who havent been there yet when you are within a certain range of these things they drain your energy and they have lightning attacks so your life goes down as well.) Now with blood is power I have to sacrafice 33% of my max health to give someone +6 energy regen.

You would think that monks who know they need energy to heal people and protect them would stay out of there...nope both of them ran straight into the middle of it, still I did what I could but they kept saying they needed energy faster then i could recharge the life to do it with (btw this whole time im using bip on them they are not healing me at all I had to rely on blood renewal to save me).

Ok whatever next couple parts we start a fight I hit blood renewal then click thier name and hit bip next thing I know I'm standing in the middle of the fight next to the tanks and the monk getting attacked, obviously I died. Both monks were in the middle of the fight by the tanks and watched me die. when the fight was over one of them said "gee you know you really should be more careful about sacraficing your life like that." ummm...it wasnt life sacrafice that did it it was the fight you pulled me into...ok didnt say anything and let it go. I did mention a couple times very politley "could you try to stay out of the seals range?" "Could you try to stay back a little from the battle?"

Next area same order for skills and now there is a second group of enemies comming in from behind because when I went to bip the monk she was so close to them one of us aggroed them. Everyone yelled at me called me an idiot told me to be more careful. So i stopped and said "fine I have a new rule...the next time you monks run up to the battle and stand right beside the tanks for whatever reason you feel you have to even though you know you can heal from a distance then I refuse to use bip and die again because your not healing me. You want your bip stay out of the fight." I asked nicly a few times and they ignored me.

They said hows is our fault you died. someone else sort of stuck up for me and said "well it is kind of sad shes sacraficing her life to be your battery and you cant even keep her healed" so then they were like "oh so are you punishing us?" Next battle I stay back but its a long stretch of lava that we have to go across and we get attacked by lava imps along the way...so I hit bip on both monks about 30 seconds after the last one i was dead...all i typed was "...ummm..." one of the monks imediatly "it wasnt my fault you ran too far away from me for me to heal you" "umm number one you were the last one i biped you were right behind me more then close enough...number two ok if you say you were too far away then why didnt you heal anyone else"

(as a side not neither of them did anything for my hubby either and they didnt know we were married but you would think a prot monk would put enchants on a tank and a healer would make sure the tank stayed alive).

Anyway everyone but the monks died in that fight and they didnt even try to rez anyone so obviously the enemies turned on them when there was no one else and yet another failed attempt at the mission. Funny part is we went back later with a guildie tank and a buddy monk of ours and henchies...the henchies did a better job then the real people...we beat the mission.

Just did PvP in Team Arenas, and we managed to kill er... the wrong people, but one by one they left, and the last 2 called us Noobs, lol

and you think IWAY is a way to win now? yeah, RIGHT!

I call this story The Only Time Ever I Wish I Had Reusable Res in Arena

Team Arenas

Us: Healing Monk (me), Axe Warrior, Air Spiker, Air Spiker
Them: Two warriors, Two R/W (aka "Thumper Bunnies")

Before I begin, is there any particular build which makes one a Thumper Bunny other than being a ranger with a melee weapon? Anyway, here goes:

Fighting, fighting, etc. Comes down to our warrior and me, the two TBs on the other team. No reses left on either side.

The TBs chase me, I run and heal, run and heal, our warrior chases them, one of them gets down to half health and then they begin to run. Warrior has Bull's Strike but that is only good when his Sprint is up and it doesn't recharge that fast.

As far as I could tell, their skills were:

Escape
Whirling Defense
Dodge
Lightning Reflexes
Irresistible Blow (the only knockdown they had, but didn't work on me because I didn't try to "block" any attacks)
Wild Blow
Healing Signet
Res Signet

They ran and ran like the wind, over and over, around and around. Once in a while they would get it into their heads to turn and fight one of us, but not very often, and they seemed to get discouraged when they couldn't kill me and our warrior was damaging them. Then off they'd go again.

ALL this time, particularly the dead people on their team were talking so much trash. Telling us to give up, "monk stop running so we can kill you," "your life is worth nothing," we were pwned, etc. Oh, and a bunch of nice racial epithets and other gross bigoted remarks thrown in. <screenshots of offensive language>

Finally, our warrior killed one of them. Must have hit the wrong button or something or forgot one of his stances, or didn't begin running soon enough. Whatever. This was at about 90 minutes and counting.

So, now down to one TB. One of the dead guys claimed that the TB had created an "eazzy macro gui bot" something or other which made the TB run, run, run, stop, defensive stance, healing sig. I do not know if it's possible to do this, but okay. <screenshots of someone claiming to use a bot>

They all but came out and admitted that their strategy was to frustrate the other team ftw. Well, we had been about to just give up and let them have their measly 50 faction, when one of them said that their "ethics" did not allow them to give up. Um, ethics? Really the wrong word. We kidded them about that.

Alleged bots + no strategy + no fighting = ethics? Riiiiiight.

Finally at 2 hours we all were very tired, just told them how pathetic they were and left.

Yes, we were pathetic too for not leaving earlier. But after all the trash talking... we felt there had to be a winner. Too bad for us.

The SADDEST thing? When the TB got killed? I was down to no energy. If the second one hadn't run away, he probably could have finished me. But, NOOOOoooo, he had to run away. And run... and run... and run...

Heres mine, theres me..and a runner

runner-running to yaks for tips!

i join

*halfway to PIKEN*

runner- so how much are u gonna tip?

me-err, i dunno, i have 20k with me atm so....

*we are at COURTHOUSE*

runner-ok can everyone show me their tips

me-um, i thought u were running to yaks.

runner-i am im just not gonna run it for free, or for a little amout.

me- yeah, well you died twice, i tip on how fast you get there

*he declines the trade*

runner-omg ur a f***ing f*ggot!!!

PvP W/N. Grenth's Balance. Plague Touch. That's all I have to say.

i had a hope that i would never had to post here , but last night , it hapand

there we go a party to killroy , first group 2 people die , nothing bad there , the rest of us manage to survive and rez them , then one of them say : we have 2 monks and we died ... at that moment i say to my selfe " noobs " and then i type in team chat " lol , blame it one monks , that was agroo " no reply , team gets stronger and we never die again , and clean everything preaty good untill monk boss , still out of sorrow .

this is where a warrior ( guildless ) start screaming : STOP !!!! STOP !!! dont atack !!!!! after i type , dont worry , i just need full energy and he dies , becose it was taking ages , warrior keeps saying : dont atack , stop your staffs .. only casters are atacking with staffs , not casting any skills ...

becose we didnt stop he goes " ok , no more killing monk boss " he runs to sorrow furnace alone ...

my energy was still at 50 or something out of 90 ... the reason that i didnt stop my staff was : 1 - he was not a leader 2 - why stop ? something noobish was in is mind 3 - arrogant way of asking. then trys to punish us with runing in sorrow.

my reaction was : "@#$%#@$%@#" then i left

I've an even better idea: use Symbiosis! +100 or so hp per enchanment (and you just KNOW that invincimonk's got about 5 or 6 enchantments on them at any given time), and BOOM! They've got like 600 hp! PRECIOUS!

I made a W/Mo and gave him things from my main like a max damage fiery dragon sword and materials for his armour ( Only Gladiator from yaks ) So I went to the arena and started slaughtering people at lvl 10. In one match all my team members died and I was left to kill a R/W and a W/Mo to deal with. First of all I killed the ranger who hit 3s at the most And then this W/Mo ran from me and ran back when her life was full I eventually killed her. When I left arena for some PvE I received messages saying " Ur a noob, U couldn't kill me without ur stuff from further towns" and after I replied I got another mindless nooby insult " ur a noob u don't know the meening of noob, u say it to b cool" We ended on eachothers ignore.
Tell me am I the jerk or is she?

though i dont discourage running bringing droks armor to noob arenas is pretty unfair mate. i think she had a fair reason to pm u but she didnt choose the right words

although i've been in some pretty bad sf pugs myself, i think that war was probably saying don't attack because that monk boss uses MOP:

For 10 seconds, whenever target ally would take damage, that ally is healed for that amount instead, maximum 6-49. All your Protection Prayers are disabled for 10 seconds.

and it can be a real pain to kill him if you're in a small party w/ no interrupts. i just love it when my overeager and mindless undead minions heal the boss back to full life after he's almost dead =)

I too believe that twinkies ought to be banned from lower-level arenas; but Aro was using Yak's Bend Gladiator's - no advantage there over Ascalon except for the energy.

some guy in CA just started taking random peoples names and putting em into this sentence: (name of player) is giving away free supieror vigor runes pm him for details.

and since there seems to b lots of noobs in CA i would get like 200 replies like: "" ooo ooo me can i have one"

lol oops musta missed that part yea i guess then that person was the jerk then

In my mind you are one of the jerks in the story. You are the reason why I long ago stopped playing in the competitive arenas. The Ascalon arena is max level 10 for a reason, so that people who are bringing up their characters can have some fun with random PvP along the way, instead of waiting until their characters are at max level having the highest level armor, weapons and all the skills available. It is of course to be expected that people will be angry losing to teams made up of players who are using armour and maybe skills that should be available only later on in the game.

The biggest jerk i met was during a Droks run.

Was running a group of ppl to droks last night.
Usual payment deal was 2k at snakes dance and [email protected] So we finally make it to snakes, and im asking ppl to pay up the 2k.
Four of them are game and pay up immediately. The fifth guy does not respond. Im thinking another dude gone AFK. So i start my run from snakes and after abt 2 mins, we get zoned back to Drednought's drift. I thought maybe someone backed up too far into the portal, so i start my run again and after a min it happens again.

Apperently the fifth dude wanted to have some fun and so kept rezoning between drift and snakes. This was happening for like 10 mins.

The funny part was that one of the guys who had paid up asks me why im not running to droks.

After that i was just to annoyed to go on, i asked the others to map back to beacon's to collect their money. Hate it when jerks mess with my money

Just so you know......the skulls and carving were to buy Candy Canes which are still very usefull as they get rid of DP, all the way up to 60 for one CC. So, while the weapons, shields, etc may be useless, the Candy Canes are priceless.

I found this encounter quite hilarious: I was running Droks with a partner. A bit after advertising the message, I get a PM from someone saying that ''Power of My Ranger'' needs a run (What was he, his ambassador?). So, thinking I was running someone famous, I decided to go through the hassle of having to transfer my existing customers to the International District. I was supposedly running his PvE character "Power of my Hands", who was supposedly his monk that he was going to solo the UW with, since he was bored with PvP (winning the Hall all the time and becoming famous? PUH-LEESE). He also seemed to act like a dullard. But that's not my real encounter. When we got there and everyone left, an Asian (Probably Chinese) monk in the international Droks came up to me and my partner and started spamming "Cao ni ma", which is a vulgar insult having to do with your mother. (Google it and click on your first result to figure it out). For a minute we were suckers and did /wave, thought that he/she was greeting us. I got curious and googled it and found he/she was a no-good-dirty-rotten jerk. Well, I proceeded to spam her with a less vulgar phrase in Mandarin that I got off the website with all the insults on it. She PM'ed her insult to me one more time, and about a minute later she PM
s me in all caps saying "I LOVE YOU". I don't know about you, but I thought that was hilarious.

since i'm just a clueless little newb, i'll share the only really stupid story i know.

i was doing one of the earlier missions with my ranger/warrior, which i believe was the drascir mission. anyways, my pug had 1 warrior, 1 monk, and 1 mesmer. all of whom die at the rate of about once every 3 minutes. during the mission i had to res the monk, since she decided that she was a better warrior than the warrior and went toe-to-toe with a few charr axe-thingies. once we got to the drawbridge, i went one way, everyone else went the other way. i told them that we're going to do the bonus mission. unfortunately, the other people apparently did not know how to speak english (hence why we got split up in the first place....). so i lured some of the charr to rurik (he's a better tank than the monk, that's for sure), and proceeded to kill them. after i'm done, i realized that my entire team was dead, and all of them drawing obscene symbols on the minimap, trying to get me to rez them. i told them i can't, since i had already used it. but of course, they did not understand, and the symbols became progressively more obscene up until i left.

yes, it was rather bad for me to leave them and do the bonus. but come on! do they really need to be forcefed?

Yea i seen Power of my Ranger's team win HoH a few times, just so you know.

I love this thread. Many laughs to be had here.
Two Stories
First is an asshat/be aware of what your paying for in trade story. My Guildmate was on a saphirre buying binge. So after she let out her advert. A monk PM's her and offers 6. She pays the fee and afterwords she screams OMG i just got scammed!!. Of course our guild got interested cause she just lost a LOT of gold.(Sidebar-though we made it back later that day) The Monk apparantly had been farming the heart of Ice quest in Yaks. So she was the new angry owner of the worlds most expensive quest items.
Secondly i went back and started a new char for my guild. As i'm doing the normal dye farming/questing, I'm selling useless junk in Barradins. This wammo lvl 13 adverts " Purple (something)hammer dmg 11-26, Dmg +5%when hexed, 15k". The situation developed like this
Me-lol thats not worth 15k, it's not even max
Jerk-stfu n00b, i just sold one earlier, w/e Bi@#ch
*At this time My GF comes to computer to find out what i'm laughing so hard about*
Me-Noob? in pre? Noooo! the horror!
Jerk-Go F*&k your mom you n00b!
*GF currently laughing and pushes me out of chair to play with him*
Me/GF-Dont get so angry because i have knowledge of weapons
Jerk-Go suck a di*k! n00b
*GF looks at me, shrugs, and says" This boy's ass is mine, I'll shut him up quick"
Me/GF-Ok,I will,thanks for reminding me, let me grab my BF and i wlll, i actually enjoy it. To bad you have to pay for it.
Jerk-*Silence, and zones*
General response from then silent Barradins-O_O,O-o,OMG
We laughed for an hour while we both logged on and bounced around Pre following him and countering his adverts. Petty i know but so fun.

The most annoying guy ive met was on a FoW chest run, The "standard" team is 8 w/mo set for running. Personally as long as it only costs me 125g to get in fow, I could care less what type of character wants to try running it. So I join this group that has the jerk(lvl 18 w/n with droks armor) and an elementalists. The jerk is constantly saying we should kick the ele out of the group. So I of course say "if he wants to pay his part let him come" which the jerk of course ignores. While we were waiting for 1 last person to come the jerk just kept on his rant. I responded with "Kick the low lvl guy he's annoying" I was shocked at the response I got from the team "No way hes rank 9". Now we all know rank is meaningless in pve. So we are doing the run, he died about 3 times, even the ele outlived him. This whole time he's saying how the rest of the team was a bunch of noobs. His running build was one of the worst builds I have ever seen in my 6 months of playing GW. Then he said it, right before the spider cave. "I'm a much better runner than YOU im rank 9". One thing I do very well in this game is running. At this point he had died 3 times I hadnt died at all. I kept quiet, we entered the spider cave, he died half way I breifly backtracked to his body, stoped on his corpes to flashed my little rank 3 emote and laughed at him. I made it through the cave, and he didnt say a word after that, and he got called a noob by the rest of the team. I must say I enjoyed that part very much.
