Guild sitting. Almost like chamo sitting? 99.999 percent of the time chamo...to the point that even applicants cant find you?....but that is another story. So you tell me. What are Arbiters SUPPOSED to do. What is their Charter, per se? To try to keep chaos to null in the city. that is their duty. And the ONLY way to FAIL in that duty is to not have an Arbiter present in the City if an Arbiter is in the realms. so to have some prick who has NEVER played an arby, make fun of us, and profess to hate us for doing EXACTLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING, makes us feel good for two reasons. 1) It shows that even our enemies notice that we do our jobs.
> Arbiter - no comments, I despise you all. Sitting in the guilds, practicing with two special guards (ofcourse, when no WANTED about) - sick and sad. Die.
Guards. In the city. Are standard operating procedure for the Arbiters. In the Hall, it even TELLS you to have them when on duty in a city. The only time it matters that there is a criminal about is when out of the city.
Try playing an arbiter. Try being the only arbiter in the realms. Or try being one of only 3 in the realms. And try to leave town. The MOMENT an arbiter leaves town, chaos erupts. Everyone who was waiting for it to happen springs into action, And of course, everyone else sends tells to the Arbiter saying Crime is happening. And we are REQUIRED to investigate all Crimes. So even if we are leaving for...say to get an opal ring because we are naked...usually we get between 2-8 tells by the time we even GET to the opal ring saying shit is going down in the city, causing us to return. So ranking is out the window, by the time we get half way to where we rank, we are called back, and most groupmates get tired of that and will choose another.
2) It shows that you are sophomoric in thought, and have a hard time separating yourself from your character, proving that your good opinion means less than dick.
