Beating Gemmers

I can't list them all so I will just list a few, WSG jumps, wall glitches, using a higher level toon to get lower toons to get into raids, trials getting DKs, trials using glitches to get into Strathholm, old way to get arcanums, using a higher level toon to put leg armor on your legs, using skinning/herbing glitch, the mining glitch and the list goes on and on. All these items are what twinking is ALL about. None of these are or were bad. So why all of a sudden is gemming bad? Is it because a small portion of the player base chooses not to pay? They have the same option as everyone else to pay, they just chose not to. I myself don't gem, I don't care if someone gems. It is all part of the game to me. So, for the fifth time, where is my explanation why gems are bad and other exploits are not? And don't say because trials can't use them, because they have that option and don't say because other exploits don't "hurt" people? Remember, zero tolerance, right?

I'm still waiting for an example of other exploits that can currently make your toon more powerful. And it is a silly stretch to compare gems to f2p's having DK's for fucking achievement points.
 
Been 24 hours waiting...

I listed fivefour 2 pant enchants, head enchant. 2 proff ones. How many more do you want?
Cheers

I'm not gonna lie... I lol'd while reading your comment. You obviously are a 24 thats mad about trials getting to actually do something on a trial account seeing 3 of ur examples are involving trials doing something that isn't related to pvp at all.


If you are comparing me being able to get into ICC to get a ribbon as being the same as a 24 using 40 resil to take 20% less dmg or 40 pvp power to do like 15% more dmg then you're either a gemmer yourself or just blind to see the difference

Can you name any current ones? All this crap you listed has been gone since Wrath.
 
Until Blizzard gives an official stand point on the issue (gemming), it is open to interpretation. So some of the self imposed bracket police make up self imposed restrictions that they want to play games with.
 
Head enchant is no longer in game and was red for 24's anyway, as are all leg enchants. Apply the enchant, but it doesn't become effective or grant bonus stats in the 20-24 bracket. Profession exploits no longer work and sockets have been hotfixed. My understanding is that it is no longer possible to socket items? Gems will gradually fade away as all the other exploits. We now have perfect balance in the world (of Warcraft). And all whiners should now be happy.

And you are correct, Blinka. A few people said it was "bad" and the rest acted like sheep and followed the herd. Just like it is bad to play at the top of the bracket instead of the bottom for some reason.

@lil Why would I be angry? I too have a ribbon shirt as well as a tabard of the lightbringer. Kudos to you for getting it that is what twinking is all about, gearing your toon to the maximum.

I'm still waiting for a response on any other exploit that can increase a character's power. Current, mind you, not something from years ago in BC or early Wrath.

Merely an excuse to dodge the question to why gemming is/was bad and the other exploits are not (I believe I even have ole Blinka in my corner on this one). You have the skill of a seasoned politician. And by the way, you have a potty mouth. I am sure your Mother would be proud.

Also, the fact still remains, no one has explained why this particular bug/exploit is bad when all the others are just fine and dandy. I think it is because there is no rational explanation other than the "have nots" got upset and deemed it evil. Correct me if I am wrong.

If we must split hairs you have to get a higher level toon to apply thick armor kit if you choose to use that.

Look, you made an argument, and now I am taking you to task for it. This has nothing to do with splitting hairs. Gems are the only exploit in the last four years that let you increase your character's power, and making a similar argument for thick armor kits is ludicrous at best. I mean, that is what, an extra 0.5% armor? You have made an improvement over your f2p DK post, but if you wish to be taken seriously, we will need something better yet.

The fact is, gems gems further increase the disparity in a bracket already wildly imbalanced by gear, enchants, and abilities. It is only natural that they would arouse the ire of the majority of the bracket's inhabitants. They are a slap in the face for those who would desire honest competition.
 
First of all,is it possible a f2p to make post without vitriol? Secondly, I finally got somewhat of an answer after asking for two weeks. It is a f2p choice to play in this "wildly" unbalance bracket. As I see it as a trial we[ have many choices. Play in the 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, hit the upgrade button, keep moaning as a f2p or stop moaning as a f2p. Would you like a little cheese with your whine? The choice is all yours.

You obviously are new if you think dori is a f2p...


F2P has ALOT less of a choice to play in this bracket then 24s do.. This is the 20-24 section so alot of the people arguing with you can be 24s as well. If you want me to start my 24 hate convo I will but that's not what we are talking about. EVERYONE has given you an answer you just refuse to accept it. Gems are the single most used game breaking exploit in this bracket just behind flying 200 ft above the ground or burrowing 200 ft below which seems to have stopped as I haven't seen it as much at all recently. Like I said in a previous post if you don't see why 20% more dmg reduction or 15% more dmging attacks are game breaking or frowned upon more then a DK bug or a roof jump then you have your perspective messed up

I have been around here longer than you and dory both, trust me. Don't let the post count fool you young one. And more spewwing of the vitriol. You really should relax and enjoy the game more before you burst a blood vessel. Every toon has the same choice. You can choose to play. You just don't. Therefore you have more choice than a p2ps. As you say, all a matter of perspective. I prefer to call it a debate, not an arguement.

I do commend you on your achievement hunting. I too am an achievement hunter. Although as of late I just have not had time for it. I have 16k. My partner that I achievement hunted with has amassed almost 20k! He is pretty OCD about it though.

Not even a f2p, you bimbo. I will give you a chance to make another post now, as the quoted one is based entirely on inaccuracies.
 
I never called you a f2p, I may have insinuated it. I know you have p2ps. One of them is Dorygoon. Please correct me if am wrong. And what is with the name calling? I thought that went out in elementary school. You really should act your age, not your shoe size.

/cheers
