Way to take my comments out of context, Slein. If you don't want to zone in, don't. I can like or not like whatever I want. You can like or not like whatever you like, as you made clear in the crudest manner possible. That isn't telling anyone what to do whatsoever. sPvP and GvG can be very fun and even useful for getting tactics down.

What exactly is this "context" I'm missing, then?  Your comments seem pretty unequivocal to me.  You've made it pretty clear that you have a particular vision for how people should play this game.  Many of us don't share it.

I'm all for moving up in tiers, so long as it means we get to ruthlessly crush and demoralize our enemies in this and every future tier. I play games for fun, but I also play to win at most any cost, haha... Ehmry has been mostly kind to me but I do at times wish it were a bit more collectively...driven. I feel we could be doing more.

I can appreciate Bishop's vision, but then maybe Ehmry hasn't always been the best match for me and I'm never satisfied with second best. :P

Many of us have a particular vision for how people should play the game.  If you had your way, everyone would be running meta comps.  If I had my way, everyone would be on TS.

What I expected - and had confirmed - from my TS thread is that I will *never* have my way.  I can accept that; I don't have to like it, but I can accept it.

I'll be honest: I find WvW less fun now than I did in the lower tiers. I don't know where this "sweet spot" is for roaming and havocs, but I sure as hell haven't found it here.

Slein... read the words that followed the quote you posted. There lies the context you seek. I am not wasting anymore time on this. You don't want to contribute to our success. That's fine. I don't know any other ways to say it.

I'm finding that less enjoyable overall these days. It's more and more clear to me that Anet has no idea how to balance their game and it will especially never be balanced for a 1v1; with how they treat WvW as well I'm considering just doing PvE and raids only...I hope those are good.

Eh. This is fallacy. No MMO has been perfect in any type of balancing. World of Warcraft, as an example, has completely reworked their classes many times over. The only way to perfectly balance a game is to give everyone the same type of skills, cooldowns, everything, and give them the exact same damage.

Are their classes right now that are completely overpowered? Yes. But I've destroyed rangers and been destroyed by rangers. I've destroyed warriors and been destroyed by warriors. Etc. My build is more setup for zerg fighting or base defense, though if I try to take a camp and I come across a roamer, chances are their build is setup for that and I'll get wiped out.

Frankly this has been my favorite game for pvp, because no matter how strong your build is, this game is highly rock/paper/scissors - there's always a hard counter.

I said they have failed to balance...and you turn around and claim that it's fine because no MMO has perfect balance, not even really disputing the core of what I stated - yet I'M the one with the "fallacy"?

I don't have time for this condescending drivel. Fuck off.

Okay, I mean, in the strictest sense, yes, the words before and after the statement in question do indeed constitute the context of said statement.  But I don't see anything in that context that does anything to cast doubt on my reading of the quoted text.  So if you somehow contrived to use those words to mean something other than what they actually mean, by all means, enlighten me about what I'm missing.

More of your guilt trip bullshit.  I've contributed a hell of a lot more to the success of Ehmry Bay over the years than you have, so frankly, you can get fucked with comments like that.  I've had a lot of fun helping Ehmry to kick ass in various capacities in the past three years, but when it's not fun or I've got other shit on my plate, I'm going to go do something else.  And most importantly, that's a good thing.

You're pretty inarticulate, then.  Maybe you should enrol in some remedial English lessons.

They don't join TS because they know their voice isn't as cool as yours, and are intimidated.
One day we should all get voice modulators so that we sound like muppets.   That way, no one needs to fear how their voice sounds and everyone can be on  TS :P

I have seen you kick ass in the past, and if you want to I am sure you will in the future.
However, your use of expletives makes it seem as though you are the inarticulate one here.  I'm not sure how it works in Poland, but here bad language largely ends before a person is considered a respectable adult so expletives are often considered puerile.

Instead you should do this . . . .which is awesome, and you live in a place where you get snow . .  .


On the other hand I think I have been spending too much time with you naughty young men.  A co-worker offered to check out my box the other day, and it sounded very dirty.
You are all a very bad influence!

Man, people in this thread (and a couple of others) are on edge. What gives?

Everybody snapping at each other are solid peeps who've been contributing a lot to the server. But the edge is real!

Can we all just say, "Fuck you, Biff. That's MY dollar!" and get back to comedy and stomping' reds? Pretty please? There are some ruined plant fibres and broken claws in it for you if you do. :D

They have failed to balance because it's not POSSIBLE to do so. You whine like a little baby because you can't win a 1v1, and claim you're going to quit playing those modes because of it. What a child.
