So, I got bored, and decided to pick apart some of the generalizations you hear, and I have a feeling most of these are true. So, here we go.

Everyone wants a Cleric with Level 10 Res, yet most are unwilling to give the Cleric a GA and Res Scroll in return.

Most of the time, a person screaming "Res Plz" is a dead BM.

Everyone agrees that Archers and Wizards are the powerhouses of DD, yet there are a ton more Archers than there are Wizards.

In the event of a bad wipe, normally 2 people are blamed immediately. The Cleric, and the Tank.

Most people are only willing to squad with a Veno with a Hercules, but at that point, the Veno doesn't need you anymore.

No matter how hard you try to avoid it, you will eventually squad up with Leeroy Jenkins reincarnated.

Lagosaur sucks. Period.

World Quest is boring, time consuming, and still a better way to spend a few hours than what some people are doing right now.

The same people that QQ about BMs Stunlocking are the same ones who complain about Clerics healing, and complain about Wizards Kiting, and complaing about Barbs having High HP, Venos having Pets, and Archers having crits. Basically, their whining is just a habit at this point.

In the time it takes you to QQ about being PKed, someone else can come by and PK you again.

There is no wrong way to level, only several more effective ones.

Just because you can wear heavy armor does not mean you're a tank.

If you're still afraid of mobs 10 levels lower than you, REROLL!!! For crying out loud.

If you are on a PvP server, you ARE going to die. A lot. Get used to it.

If you are on a PvE server, nobody is going to take your opinions about PK seriously. Get used to it.

Female characters are not your personal playthings. Stop flirting with anything with ****.

Saying "What does this thing do?" and then running towards it is a surefire way to get someone very angry at you.

KSing is not a crime, and QQing about it is just allowing the other person to kill more mobs.

And.... My personal favorite.

They're called CLERICS. Not God Mode.

    If a person had a GA on them to give in return than what does it matter what level the res is :)

    Two things:
    They're called CLERICS. Not God Mode.

    Now I gotta disagree with you there. /god mode on

    Actually, I welcome the cyber tells. Mostly because I am male and, being sexually secure, I love pursuing these people even after I've let them know this fact. Observe:

    Why give a cleric a GA or res scroll for a free res?

    BMs are the second most common class in the game (1st = veno). BMs have a much harder time solo grinding than venos.

    Archers are less squishy than Wizards not to mention they have the highest DPS in the game.

    They are blamed because the only way a DD can cause a wipe is if they pull aggro (which shouldn't happen if you have a decent tank).

    A Veno with a herc can't solo higher level TTs - and when they can solo the time cost is exorbitant.

    Leeeeeerooooooooooooooooooooooy Jenkiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiins

    Sure. Sleeping is also a better way to spend a few hours than what some people are doing right now also.

    Nah. Everyone complains about Venos being OP... because they are.

    Not if you're in a safe zone.

    An example of fail grinding -> A Barb grinding on magic mobs.

    True. The exception being if you're a barb. Then you're always tanking.

    I'm rounding on 80 and still would not try to solo any mobs in fb 59.

    Not necessarily.

    Defected (Heaven's Tear PvE) is a better PKer than 99% of people on PK servers.

    Did someone say ****?

    K. If you'd like I could KS you (even if you have a nix) nonstop for an hour. Lets see if you QQ or not.

    That last one was meh...

    Didn't say I believed in all them, just bringing them up. However, the first one, about Cleric with GA and Res Scroll is referring to Squads in FBs and such.

    All this really amounts to is just a compilation of all the things I've heard playing this game. Just sharing is all I'm doing. :)

    Cause it takes extensive time and effort, and most of all uber amounts of god like skillz to manually press that button called .....*gasp*...... "resurrection" b:pleased ...no really, our life is on the stake when we press this.

    Every time you fb/hh you give your cleric 80k? Time to reroll as a cleric.. what server are you on?

    In the event of a bad wipe, normally 2 people are blamed immediately. The Cleric, and the Tank.

    1) archer/mage stealing aggro and drawing boss away from bm forced to tank
    2) fail barb
    3) nubs putting together a weak party
    4) fail cleric

    If you are on a PvP server, you ARE going to die. A lot. Get used to it.

    Umm... spoken like someone who has never played on a PvP server.

    lol so true... love all these... the following ones are my fave:
    Everyone wants a Cleric with Level 10 Res, yet most are unwilling to give the Cleric a GA and Res Scroll in return.

    lol this is sooo true... hence why my lvl 60 cleric has lvl 1 res ^^
    Everyone agrees that Archers and Wizards are the powerhouses of DD, yet there are a ton more Archers than there are Wizards.

    Gah wizards need more love. I think it's because wizards are probably one of the hardest classes to play on PW. People never seem to get the hang of playing wizards properly b:surrender
    Most people are only willing to squad with a Veno with a Hercules, but at that point, the Veno doesn't need you anymore.

    Yuuup... *pets sister's herc that I paid half the coins for and who is now mine and sis's personal tank slave ^^* Independence is a wonderful thing.
    Female characters are not your personal playthings. Stop flirting with anything with ****.

    /facepalm and it's always the venos... probably because of all the lovely rump shaking they do in battle.
    Saying "What does this thing do?" and then running towards it is a surefire way to get someone very angry at you.

    lol I've been in a few squads with these people... I always kind of have a laugh out of their deaths though ... then get on my cleric to "lvl 1" res their sorry butts.

    My main is on LC, my lvl 67 archer is on HL... I have never been relentlessly PK'd. So speaking from my experience on both PWI PvP servers, his comment missed the mark.
