Guild Wars 2

Hello, I have 2 questions,

1. If my friend plays during trial and then decides to buy the game a month later – will his characters be still there?

2. Is there any reward for inviting friends? With me, you know, it’s deal-deal, or nothing-nothing.

I was thinking the same thing as well.
As the info don’t really say out about this.

I was wondering about the first one as well. It does say that there will be an option in game to upgrade your game, and I assume that if you do that you will be able to use the characters created.

However, I am also wondering if after the free trial period ends, if people, using the same e-mail address, can keep those created characters.

I am wondering this exact same thing as well.

3. A ‘red’ poster suggested that we not worry about whether or not our friends would be able to get on our server even though it’s full, suggesting that they would magically get to create characters on our server. How does that work?

4. If they get put on our servers, and later buy the game, as the OP suggested, will the characters be there, and on the same server (the server I play on now)?

5. At what point is ‘the server’ decided? I sent my invites out an hour ago. Did it lock them to my server at that point (SoS)? I have another friend who started 2 days ago, and I haven’t been able to get them on in 48 hours (over to my server). If I decide to transfer my own character off SoS over to [Horrible Server], as the game wants to penalize me for playing with my real life friends, will those invites be over on SoS? Is it what ever server I’m on at the beginning of the event?

Or…is this whole “don’t worry” thing because you plan on releasing the “join me” functionality with Lost BlahBlah (forget the name)? Not that this is an answer in the long run, of course, because it doesn’t work with WvW, which seems pretty pointless.

I’m wondering the same but the official FAQ does have some answers but what it doesn’t include is server population vs invited friends ie can we be assured to have friends we invite on the same server we are on?

I had a friend buy and start on Saturday. Couldn’t get on my server (SoS). Sunday? No such luck. Today? I’ve been trying all day, and because of the insane WvW recruiting that has gone on over the past month, my server moved up the ladder and seems to have 24/7 coverage and ‘no one’ will log off

It’s looking like my only choice to play with my friend is to be forced off a server which I like. That hardly seems nice. I didn’t do anything to them.

I invited some more people, and they might come, but this one friend that decided to get it before all this free weekend stuff went down, won’t be able to join me. Or, if their plan is to sneak in the new ‘join’ feature, I mean, that will be a start, I suppose, but it won’t include WvW, right? What will be the limitations of that?

So everyone go log off SoS so I can get my friend moved over.

Also would like to know the answer to this
