this is why i left sPvP long time ago, cus i had to be super amazing baller thief like these among top.every1 raging tell me what to do expecting me or others to bulldozer over the whole map etc.nope ill just stick with WvW where i can pvp all day long and no1 rages or bothers me, tho i dont play anything atm but it was the reason for me to quit the whole sPvP thing with all these wannabe pro's

edit:o btw these raging kids obviously where not top players them self, i have played back then with some good guys they just simply took the time to explain me what i did wrong and what i should have done etc.the raging ones are most of the time the wannabe good guys who can barely compete among top.

Why, today, I had a kindly firebrand holding close for half of the game while we continually lost 4v5 mid. Said firebrand then proceeded to call us bad players, and defended their actions by saying “if I left close, the thief would decap it”. While not untrue, the enemy didn't even touch close - and anyone who suggested the Firebrand shouldn't bunker close were called liars and blocked.

Anet have already given us 60 seconds to talk up a strategy, yet people remain silent until someone snowballs the match. It's almost like some players just get off on it, or something.

Why somebody didn't go and replace the firebrand at close?I can understand his frustration and he was 100% right! If you lose mid all the time and still go mid instead than rotate properly...it's your goddamn fault for losing, if none of you can help mid...then maybe go and hold the thief harassing close all the time so that the firebrand can come mid?..dunno just a thought.

The guardian wasn't being toxic...it's you lot who don't get rotations and roles

6 points:~ I was the party thief.~ I called I was going to close at the start of the game (ignored by said firebrand, who meandered there after me).~ No enemy came to close. They didn't have to; they had 2 points already, so the firebrand just sat around on their ass.~ Their thief was a p/p staff acro who never left mid.~ As the Thief, there are few situations where full-capping far is good while your team fights for mid.~ The Firebrand used their free time on close to complain to me (in pm) how nobody on their team knew how to play.

This isn't a video for dissection of my own (lack of) play ability; it's my opinion that the Guardian was wholly in the wrong, regardless of any mistakes made by the team - who then blamed the team verbally for his own lack of tactical planning. My recollection will reflect that, so there’s little point defending his actions.
