Kind hope they remove the " run to the inn " karma farming from the humans.

This weekend litterally saw lots of ppl farming over 1000 karma on that crap.

Did you report it? Since I've never been on the Human areas so far, I'm not aware of this exploit.

yeah, definitely report it. If Anet won't get rid of it they'll certainly nerf it enough that it won't be worth farming.

Definately reported it but the way it is set up kinda seems like it was intended this way.

I thought they had said it was intended this way in the Beta forums. Basicially, IF you want to spend the time running back and forth, go for it, was the attitude...

BUT I posted in the Beta forums that I thought a limit should be placed, like 100, OR other races should get the same option.... 

Since they fixed 37 of my 54 bug reports in under 24 hours, I expect it was given 'due consideration'. They DO seem very responsive to the player base. 

what is this "run to the inn" exploit?

In the human starter zone you have to save villagers by telling them to go to the inn and you get a small amount of karma for each one. You can stay there telling people to go to the inn and keep getting karma.

I didn't sit there and crunch numbers, but the amount it gives isn't worth it. You can earn it faster doing DEs/Hearts from what I saw. The vilalgers are just less risk.

Not sure it's intentional; I think it's kinda a dumb way to get karma myself.

Considering the non-competitive nature of GW2 PvE, who really cares?

It hit me final beta the human male voice was the same voice guy for jedi consular in swtor. sorry off topic.

I guess you did this :P.

Im sure they will fix it by adding a limit or something. A lot of people complained about it in the beta forums (not that it was OMG bad, but that it was an issue)

Grand scheme of things 1k karma is not that much.

When i started a human guardian on the last day of BWE, I ran around telling the meat & mice to get to the inn. The karma reward from each villager was a whole wopping 2 karma. So although it can give you a minor boost, I think you'd end gaining less karma than doing the various DE's.

well, kinda rewards you for your effort of trying to rescue all the villagers :D I wasn't even aware of that until now xD I was jumping around and trying to defend every single one of them until I got bored (lasted pretty good 30 mins..) xD

wow... people must have been really interested in grinding for those karma vendor items.

Seriously I did not know it was even humanly possible to have such persistence.

But then again, hopefully ArenaNet will correct this issue prior to launch.

I don't see the appeal in grinding that area nor care to have anet waste there time on it. It's not a big deal...

That really seems like a colossal waste of time.
