Guild Wars 2

I realize this is may be the wrong place to post this so I apologize in advance. With Christmas drawing close and finals ending everyone will have a bit of free time and I would like to recruit a friend to this game for a free trial. Does anyone know the next time we will have the option to do so? Furthermore my friend uses a mac so if he were to play would he be able to download from the beta client?

Not sure check in one of the maintenance threads it might be in there.
Or Pm Gaile Gray.

I have been good enough to get 3 people to not buy gw2 cause of the issues.

Well I’m in no rush I’m sure whatever issues that are currently happening are not too much of a concern and will be fixed soon enough. Furthermore we have all of December since classes don’t start until 2013 so it should be fine.
