Guild Wars 2

I think that the option to “Gift” things to people would be nice. Namely Fluff Items that can be bought from the Gem Shop.

For whatever reason, I think it would increase sales that much more.

In my case I’d like to buy a Quaggan Back Pack and gift it to my buddy as a practical joke.

No matter who spends the money, the money still gets spent, and everyone is that much happier right?

Or no?

I’d also love to see gifting implemented. But, what they’ve said before is that with gifting — allowing charges to be accrued on one account while the benefits go to another — comes credit card fraud, RMT and an added incentive for account hacks.

There are at least gem cards available now from brick and mortar stores. Those allowed me to gift nicely at Christmas time, just by scanning the front and back of the card and e-mailing the information to the recipient.

A safe way to gift within the game would be very much appreciated.
