One of the things ANET shows pride over is the friendly community they have in the game. The WvW community (though we love to kill each other) is also a friendly community. We socialize while we do our favorite thing in the game, play for fights and PPT. I play with players from 6 different countries all within our small guild of 36. We all have jobs, go to school and a lot of us have kids. Friday night we sit down after a long week at work or school all hyped up for the night ahead. A night filled with drinks, laughter, fights, capping, singing (although not always the best singing.. lol) This is the aspect of the game we all love so much, and it happens for us on a night we have the time to do it FRIDAY NIGHT RESET.
Someone in an earlier post gave you % of players online during the week. Our guild is much the same. Guilds that have a player base that is WvW focused pretty much all say the same thing (especially if their players work). The weekend is when stuff happens. I have heard that on many servers FC, ROS, SFR, FSP, SOS, DH, CD and now AR
I would urge you to consult with your WvW players and get their opinions (.. Reading this thread should sum it all up ..) This decision will destroy some of the communities you say you care about so much.
I know if I was aware of this change in reset prior to now I would not have purchased Heart of Thorns until I could see the outcome this poor choice will have, perhaps I will try for a refund as well.
Despite the queues which I only ever see on weekends in the evenings. I add my vote to keeping reset the same.

When pvping my death shroud skills show as empty boxes, I have no skill ability at all. This does not happen all the time, but more than half the time I try to use it. It has also popped me out of lich form after pressing skill 4 and nothing else. (this has only happened once)
Hello Argad, (I apologize for the long post, but felt it neccessary)
I as you can see am Polbella formerly of Fergusons Crossing NA server moved to Ruins of Surmia EU server then to Seafarers Rest EU server, presently I reside on Farshiver Peaks EU server and here I will stay forever and always. I have read your post and decided I should respond to you, cause I think I have the fit that is right for you.
RiOT is the guild I reside in, and we like you love to have fun. Please feel free to check out our guild site and see more on what we are about. http://www.thecivilrebels.com/
The community of Far Shiverpeaks is well established and the people are great to play with. The community team speak is a welcome place to go to when you are playing. Most people that come there are adults, and they like to have fun, drinks and laughs while playing. In my guild there are about 8 NA players, and there is another NA guild that recently transfered here. TANK. So there are always players to play with. At any rate the advantages to playing on an EU server much out weigh the cons. The play style on the EU servers is more advanced, so there is much to learn and more fun to be had than on the NA servers. The EU players are more open to adult ideas so your comments about drunken raids stuck me, cause we do that all the time here. With results as well.
We have a great PvE community, and one that will guest to other servers to get things done
oh and did I mention that we are Silver League. The servers we play against have decent numbers in the evening so there would be plenty of good fights for you to encounter here, and I am hoping that I am convincing you. Siege is almost always refreshed here in WvW, and I can assure you that you and your guild would not always be out manned, and that your guild would not always be facing large enemy zergs. I would love to offer you and a few of your officers/players or friends to come to our server and see for yourselves what you think of the community. Please feel free to contact me in game. Polbella.7219 so I can set things up for you if you are interested. Now that I have had my long response to you. I will reply to your Questions
How well would our small group of 15 fit into the WvW scene?
They would fit extremely well. I have to say having 15 more players to run prime NA time on our server would be amazing. I am always up to having more players to play with, and I hope a group of you would come over and test the waters to see what you think
Do you think your server would support our crazy events?
We have a few commanders on our server love to do drunken raids. Lots of fun and all are welcome. So I feel your guild would fit right in. What kind of WvW events do you already have? Previously mentioned. Myself and others in my guild love to do small raiding parties at night, Gollum runs are common place as well. Why?? Just because we can.. hehe.
If you could change 1 thing about your server, what would it be?
The one thing about my server I would change would be to have more (MORE) wonderful fun people to run with in my main time. Which like you is NA time. Not because we don’t have awesome people here now, but because more is always better and more fun to be had.
I really hope to hear from you argad.
