For future armor sets

That’s actually really covered up by mmo standards. Heck it even is by real life standards, I’ve seen girls with less clothes than that.
Now if that’s what you are actually complaining about that we need less clothes then I agree

That armor on top is hot but not revealing. Gw2 doesn’t have any armor that resembles this:

Saying “X does things worse, so you shouldn’t complain” isn’t valid. That’s like telling a kitten victim “Yeah, well in certain countries you have to marry your kittenist,”

Just because you’ve seen people that show a lot of skin doesn’t mean that everything should show more skin. I don’t mind revealing outfits if they are both in moderation and practical. Protip: exposed neck isn’t practical.

As much as I love GW2, their female outfit designs can be pretty terrible. Most male outfits are interesting and cool, and the female counterparts are “Let’s see how much boob window we can get into this outfit,”. There’s nothing wrong with sexy or with showing skin, it’s knowing the difference between good design and sexualization.

EDIT: Well, it seems the word I used is blocked. For clarification, kitten is unconsentual/forced sex.

New dailies don't seem to accomplish goals...

I have to voice my agreement with the OP here. These new dailies are quite annoying. The greatest thing that drew me into GW2 was the idea that ANet gave you the foundation and you played how you wanted. That seemed to be the matra of the team. However, these new dailies don’t adhere to that ideology. Before I could pick a direction and run and finish my dailies while I played doing what I’d like; now it seems the small window of time I’m afforded lately is spent doing the daily. Even in WvW, with the old daily set, you could finish the daily with just an hour or so of WvWing [given you’re in an active WvW server, I’m sure].

I like the idea, getting players to travel around maps and see new things, but the fact that Coins and Laurels are attached to them makes them more like a chore than a nice thing to have; the kind of thing that eventually drove me from games like WoW. I feel that if Laurels were obtainable through some other means, I’d feel less like daily completion being a compulsion, and more another means to achieve a goal.

Why Skin Wardrobe should be a high-priority

I agree with and endorse this idea 100%. I think it should also extend to town clothes as well, and should include a wave of new and different items of town clothing. I really think that there should be more opportunities for Town Clothing to be used in general; it has such awesome potential and yet all of it is untapped.

Bumping this thread, I haven’t received a reply and I made this over a week ago.

In letters and scripted events, accent marked letters appear in place of what I have found out [through asking friends and looking over another player’s shoulder] should be dashes of some sort. I thought it may have been the fact that I have my system locale in a non-unicode language, but that’s not the case because said player has the same system locale. Even so, I tried changing it, to no avail.
What’s causing this, and how do I stop it?
In screencap, the problem occurs in the signature of the letter.
