Well, not you guys…at least I hope not. I thought I’d delve back into some BGs yesterday. It’s been since Legion that I’ve done any. I thought to myself, “If we start losing this BG, I wonder…”
Then as sure as day, it happened. We started losing, and all of a sudden:
Random player yells in BG: “You guys suck! What a bunch of IDIOTS!”
It never fails, and it’s funny as heck. There’s always the obligatory guy who puts down everybody for being a baddie.
Yeah and if you say something back, they will first evaluate your damage, then see if you actually even do arenas so they can bring up how "bad " you are at that. (Even if you don’t do them)
Above all even if they are 100% entertainment and you are amused, to them you are mad and triggered.
If the battleground is really a lost cause, I sometimes needle them with something they did badly. For example, often they’re a “top the meters” type person that hasn’t been playing objectives. Usually I can get them riled up enough that they do the /tell /ignore thing afterwards, if they’re not a merc.
I try to avoid that, but sometimes I can’t help myself.
It’s made even funnier by the fact that the guy doesn’t say word until 1495/1500 or 2/3 with the enemy EFC 2 feet from their flag room. No instruction, guidance, or direction. Just a last second “well, you idiots suck.”
Wow, you have surely enlightened me. I never thought of that. With this new mindset, I should be able to train hard enough, collect enough gear, and have the proper attitude to never lose another battleground. I don’t know how to repay you.
That just happened to me like 30 minutes ago. I joined this Twin Peaks with 5 minutes left and it was 2/1 Alliance. There was this warrior losing marbles in all caps saying things you wouldn’t believe.
I decided to reply with “I’m here to bring the game back” without realizing the game was about to end and then the match ended on me before I even had a chance to do anything lol. The warrior told me I was super .
Things like that make me laugh. I don’t get it. How can he be so angry about the game.
I’m just 30 lol. Small town usa. We didn’t have the fancy smart boards or whatever they are using these days.
We had the dry erase boards by middle school and the teachers still would draw the circle and if your nose had black on it after standing on your tip toes for 5-10minutes you got sent to iss or had an extra assignment. I was pretty good at standing still.
