Anyone want to buy five bucks that all of those players came from Runescape? One of the drawbacks of not having a monthly fee more idoits. You forgot to mention the idoits in obs mode.
"OMFG MY GUILD (INSERT RANK 5000+ GUILD) WOULD LIKE OWN THESE NOOBS"
"WTF IS (NAME) DOING HE'S JUST RUNNING WITH A FLAG ATTACK NOOB!!!11"
"OMG NO IWAY?"
For the wintersday quests you should tell them to bow infront of someone 100 times and then s/he will give it to them. Or the good old CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD TO 111 and log out then it will magically appear.
How stupid do people get? - Wintersday

ZOMG! I am leik teh suXz0r!
I used my candy cane shards to make a bow for my Mo/R (which is very pretty and no I am not selling it to you :P).... and spent 4 hours trying to get to Drok's (lvl18 with a group of 18-20s) to get the pipe for the quest myself.... when all along I could have just spammed LA for days like a demented monkey with a keyboard and got it all done for me....
I obviously don't have the intricate workings of this game figured out quite yet..

Somewhat Off-topic:
I hate to be pre-judgemental, but out of all the online games I've played the player base is right up there with counter strike. Not that CS is a bad game but you know what I mean. Someone mentioned it a few posts up, no fees= lots of anoying people...
I was having a BLAST yesterday and the night before, but as soon as I loaded into the real game world(after lvl 8) I was bombarded(sp) with idiocy, taunts, and, spam. Please, please, please tell me there are a few good guilds out there that will make this game worthwhile!?! I love to pvp and I love to play online games, butfor the past 4 hours, i have been nothing but discouraged. I hope my opinions change, because this is a really cool concept for a mmo game.
*fingers crossed* lol

edit: IDS for 90k? When was ice damage useful again? Especially since 60% of runs are SF runs! Ask any elementilist, Water magic doesn't work well in SF... I've been lookin just to get some nice cash on the side xD |

I don't have any anectdotes to share....there's been far too many that I just block them out of my mind now. It's really bad when you're playing an online game yet you have local chat turned off.... the community in GW sucks so bad that it's almost enough to make me want to pay a monthly fee to avoid the mass idiots in GW.
EDIT: Oh wait, I do have one to share. It goes something like this:
Idiot1: "WTB Char carvings 30 gold each!"
Idiot2: "WTS Char carving 25 gold each!"
Idiot1: "WTB Char carvings 30 gold each!"
Idiot2: "WTS Char carving 25 gold each!"
These two were on the same channel spamming the same thing over and over....Did they not see that they both had what the other wanted? And it wasnt like the one guy was charging more than the guy who was buying was willing to pay....

You just have to turn your chat off, wait where the presents drop, and enjoy the chaos. No biggie. Pay no mind to them, do not be concerned, enjoy the snow while it lasts.

What's up with ya'll, making fun of other people's spelling? Guild Wars is not a spelling bee. Quite often you have a limited amount of time to type something and sure you are going to make a mistake or two. Aslong as it's understandable it's fine in an online game.

The whole no fee thing takes effect everywhere. SA is a good example of a forum that uses fees to keep idiots out. Honestly though, you can tell pretty quick when someone you're talking to is a 15 year old kid who somehow managed to get that far.

But Santa is already here.....he has been all along!
Please allow me to elaborate. Back before Santa was a jolly fat man in a red suit (which many claim to be the influence of coca-cola but is in fact false http://www.snopes.com/cokelore/santa.asp) He was Saint Nicholas, who was born during the third century in Patara, a village in what is now Turkey. His wealthy parents, who raised him to be a devout Christian, died in an epidemic while Nicholas was still young. Obeying Jesus' words to "sell what you own and give the money to the poor," Nicholas used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering. He dedicated his life to serving God and was made Bishop of Myra while still a young man. Bishop Nicholas became known throughout the land for his generosity to the those in need, his love for children, and his concern for sailors and ships.
But why am I bombarding you with this information you ask? Has the sherry gone to his pickled brain?....well, the clue is in the name my friends
Santa Clause=Saint Nicholas=Old Nickoles
I think this is about as close to Santa as we are going to get. However...
Having seen the other events and creatures during this festival (I particularly like the grenchies idea, oh and the parodies of the carols are quite fun too hehe)l I must admit that there is a likelyhood that 'someone' will be coming. But it will most likely be a 'Father Wintersday' or somesuch.

It has all the elements.
1) The random dude spamming WTB IDS for some amount much below what their selling for.
2) The random guy going district to district telling people not to buy IDS's cause they are easy to get and/or crap.
3) The random person WTSing it at almost scam pricing and/or lying about it auction style.

| You can tell them until you're blue in the face there is no "Santa" in Tyria, and it's Wintersday on that world (seeing as how it's not Earth) not Christmas, but they won't listen. |
So we have christmas presents, hats lieing around on the floor and christmas lights and you find it weird that ppl are looking for Santa??!...
What i find weird is that Anet have made Tyria wintersday so similar to our christmas but on the wrong day..(for all the new christmas present ppl to get online) and left out the best thing about Christmas IMO Santa's hat!!! Its a must...heheh....Great update though either way.

Oh and there are so many people in Dwayna vs Grenth, yelling out: "How do I get out of this?" That always cracks me up. Well atleast its' an another way to infrom people about the map travel.

1) Alot of "new" players wont even be at Lion's Arch by New years..Unless they use a fansite to jump ahead. I know When I was new, I was in presearing 2 weeks..
2) Its already been said - It was so that people will not have to login on Christmas day (alot of people have family and such)
