Two, randomly unrelated, things.
First, I would absolutely love support to be added for SMAA: http://www.iryoku.com/smaa/
What is it? It’s like FXAA, but faster and better looking. FXAA doesn’t so much do anti-aliasing as it takes a blurry dump on the graphics and some of the edges happened to get smoothed out in the process. SMAA does a much better job of zeroing in on the aliasing without all the blurring of details you don’t want blurred.

I run it in Skyrim and it’s fantastic. That works in GuildWars 2, although I worry about being caught by some kind of anti-cheating/hacking detection system. I was told during BWE3 by a forum mod that action was “unlikely” to be taken against my account if that happened since this doesn’t automate game play or give any advantages, but I’d feel better with official support.
I’d even pay to unlock the option to select it, if that would be necessary to add it. I like it just that much.
Secondly… we need Charrkitty as a minipet. What’s a Charrkitty? It’s a comic character created, it would seem, due to the pre-release wait angst for GuildWars 2. I love the character and would really like to have this in the game as a minipet. Here’s the blog where the comics are posted: http://mysticalbeefsteak.blogspot.co.uk/
Potential NSFW language in one of the early posts on the blog.
So, yeah, Charrkitty minipet. I need it, you need it, and really, I think the world needs it.
Edit 1: Here’s a comparison I did with the SMAA Injector in Skyrim.

You MUST view these at full size to get the full effect. What you’re looking for is the aliasing around the wooden lamp post to the left of the compass. Notice that SMAA does a much better job at removing it without the negative impact the wood grain texture that FXAA has. Also notice the difference of the leaves on the bushes. FXAA butchers them while SMAA has little effect. One more noticable bit is the road texture, that FXAA blurs noticeably.

Agreed. This isn’t WoW and it shouldn’t be.
I’m personally fine with the dyes that you find being character bound, but if you want me to buy any with gems then they would have to be account bound.
Duels? Maybe… in the Mists. Not anywhere else.
Arenas? NO! Please, Arenanet, no. Blizzard themselves admitted it was a mistake to add them. If you want that kind of gameplay, WoW is available.
Freedom of speech doesn’t apply to videogames.
Agreed. I’m glad to see someone taking rule enforcement seriously. I wish that had been done a lot better in WoW, it would have been a much more enjoyable game.
No. A 72 hour ban for saying “F@?K yeah we finely killed this boss” is not okey
this is a horrible system.You wouldn’t get banned for that. They’ve stated this multiple times.
And yet it happend. To me
Made a ticket. Not expecting responce till thos 62 hours i have left are over tho.
I’d bet you said more than that to get banned.

Excessively Banned
That’s a matter of opinion. If you can’t follow the rules of the game, or don’t think the rules are fair, don’t play the game. Calling the bans “excessive” isn’t helping anything.
