Guild Wars 2

Hi folks,

I’m a designer working for ANet and I’ve been reading up this post. I always read forums and believe this is the first time we have had negative feedback, so hurray for us for keeping it up so long. We’ll continue to listen to your feedback.

Anyway, I understand everybody being mad, so I’m glad to announce that starting next week, the option to convert Gold to Gems will be removed. This will make it all much easier to understand for both new and veteran players. The reason for this is that we have had a lot of tickets from player who complained to have actually used gold instead of real money to buy the gems.

On a side note, I’ve been reading up with Gaile’s posts since the early years of GW1. I was glad to see her returning to this position, hoping to have some influence on what’s happening to GW2. I always thought she was a fair person who stood up for the community, and would discuss points with people in projects and management teams, pitching the voice of the community.

It saddens me to see her lying.

I’ll see if I can make it!

I’ve been compromised before as well. I think the way it went was because of the phishing email that showed up in my inbox. I thought my account was really compromised and clicked on the link (thus compromising my account).

Make sure that with these kind of emails, the link is correct. Gaile Gray has posted a message about it somewhere in the forum.

And, like you already have, make sure both the email you use to authenticate the login attempts and the GW2 login have new passwords you don’t use anywhere else.

I hope you’ll find a solution!

I had the same problem yesterday on the Far Shiverpeaks server. I checked back in regulary during 2 hours but the event didn’t progress.

Ofcourse it is annoying (plus, I’d like to wager some bets and get a gold coin ), but I for one can’t be too bothered with the bug. I’ve had a lot of messages saying ‘New build available’. Next time I’ll make sure to quickly go to the spot and be the first to get the quest after the reset.

Nevertheless, this should be fixed. I’ll patiently wait untill it has been done so and I for one respect the developers for putting so much effort in this. I expect that this event will not be removed, because I laughed hard when I walked past it. I thought those guards are mad but there were actually flying cows!

Yes, still like this. I’ve actually waited for an hour for something to happen, but with no avail. It’s still stuck on 3 cows needed (with no cows near).

The waves of Young Harpies keep coming though.
