... really don't want this thread to de-evolve....
I'm going to Gilga because that's where my LS of friends I've met in GW2 are going. But... I do NOT want to be mercilessly griefed. Some griefing- yeah... that happens, just ignore. But when it starts distracting RP focus and annoying the hell out of me, I'm ready to smack someone.
Yes, can /ignore... words. But not spell actions and emotes, or hopping a mount up and down on your head as you RP.
No, I don't want to be run off of a server or a place due to these dink-wads...
But for me there comes a time when enduring this shit just isn't worth the fight to RP against. Call me weak, call me faithless, call me whatever name you want.
Life is just too short and games are supposed to be fun.
That said... I'm rolling a my Miqo'te on Gilgamesh. I'm gonna give it a shot and not back away due to fears of griefing by 4chan and reddit... when it MIGHT not happen.
I'm gonna give the community a chance... That's what my FC is planning too. We all want to have a great RP experience and contribute to great RP.
BUT.
I'm also rolling on Balmung with my Duskwright.
I plan to be fully invested and am (frankly) excited to RP with the DW's and others I've encountered here that are going to Balmung. I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to working with Legacies. I have nothing but respect for all the hard work and heartache they've endured to *finally* see this game they'd wanted to come out to come out. I think it's an awesome opportunity to have such resources to help generate RP stories and bounce ideas/concepts off of.
I'm not wishy washy.
I very much want a great RP experience and want to contribute to great RP interactions... I want to enjoy logging in and working with folks... not working AGAINST griefers.
I have a job. I don't need my game to be another one that I have to PAY to endure.
That said... we had the vote, we had the discussion, that Server horse has been beat up and kicked around and Gilgamesh was the winner. Despite 4chan, reddit and having the highest non-Legacy population of any server, and therefore likely the longest queue times, its where most folks here not going to Balmung are wanting to go.
So.. yes, its just a name, but it was the one chosen due to sentimental value or simple familiarity from playing on Beta...
I really don't see us reopening that can of worms again...
Or... *sees Xerek's post*
Maybe I spoke too soon....
