Regarding the recent negativity in Ares

[Faith_4]

First off i would like to be able to have password protected chatting, and by this i mean if say, myself and 10 other ppl want to go chat in another global others shouldnt be able to snoop on you without a password. We all need to get away sometimes and there are several ppl that still refuse to come back to global 1. Also the findfriend feature is nothing but trouble as my real friends know all they have to do is whisper and ask me where I am at so I think we should do away with that. Recently had issues with that feature that caused me to dramatically shorten my friend list.

Also, directing ppl to help tab shouldn't be made such a big deal of. That,s what its there for after all isn't it? It is for the noobs benefit as much as chatters in global 1 as they get help from ppl that know a lot about this game in the help tab. Nobody makes a big deal when we send trade ppl to trade tab so why the big deal with help tab? It causes arguments that can be avoided if you just send to help without being rude. I simply type help tab and often get whispered a thank you for that yet some ppl have issues with this.

As for trolls, in all honesty we need more of a BB presence and help getting rid of them. Usually we have CL's and no BB's so that is no help at all.

Isn't the whole idea of a guild so that multiple people can play together in their own chat? At least, that's what I use guild chat for :P I understand that we make friends outside of guild, but there are so many channels that can be used for three person advs, etc. My global tends to be quiet, but from time to time, a group of 3 comes in and works out attack stuff...not really a big deal. Its an adventure and there's no pvp, so don't see why talking in an open global during the adventure is a problem?

Also, the find friend feature is to "find friends". Don't mean to sound rude, cause I don't mean it all that way, but if you have people on your friend's list that are stalking you, perhaps they shouldn't be on your friend's list in the first place. Pretty easy and painless to remove someone and add them to ignore.

Think sometimes we forget that Global-1 is just that...Global-1. That mean's its an open forum for anyone and everyone to ask whatever questions their hearts desire or speak on whatever topic they want so long as it abides by TSO guidelines. If people don't like it, then they don't have to hang out in Global-1.

There are some extremely easy fixes to so many of the complaints I am seeing in this thread. Don't friend people you truly don't want to be friends with (or defriend them if they become people you don't want to be friends with) and use the ignore feature that's so handily provided. This is a game that is open to kids as well, so its quite obvious that global-1 is going to be full of them at certain times. Perhaps we should remember that and like has been stated so many times already, let "ignore" be your friend if it so needs to be. Not everyone is going to get along with everyone all the time, but we can do our part in not adding to the issues and use some common sense in who we allow on our friend's list and what global channels we function in.

Also, so someone answers a help question in global, big deal. Its an open forum. I have seen people rudely direct people to help before or trade or other places, and let's face it, there's no need for that. At the same time, think we all get ourselves way into an uproar about things that don't need to be sometimes. Let's move on from the drama and just enjoy ourselves and play the game already ^_^

I am new to this game and having applied for five guild and declined I suppose the only alternative is to remain guildless. They all ask for active members and dont trust any one who promises to be. I wonder if they have 100 active members in their guild that they feel quite secured not to invite anyone else to the guild. It is just a socially interactive game. it is not about gold coins and diamonds but it is about the friends you make and keep. Newb are never welcomed into guilds anymore.

There is a Ares server? Who knew..

Um, since when do guilds not recruit anything in global with a pulse? that must be a record, being declined by 5.

I would agree with Draconus, there are always guilds recruiting in global-1. Perhaps you should try there. If you are trying to get into guilds that have 100 people, perhaps they are just a bit full and don't want any new people atm. No harm in trying to get into one that perhaps is smaller.

All this time, you've been missing out on smore's! That's just horrible ;-)

5 guilds and declined?? sounds a little over the top if you ask me

[Snacknado]

but he said they were all full at 100 members.....

[LordB]

Ares sounds like a really strange place to hang your hat!
