Thanks for putting up with all the crap that people throw at you around here. Thanks for the update today.

I'd like to apologize for all the people that jumped the gun and complained about the armor cap. I think the new PvE skills make up for it and give some very interesting options.

Thanks for a job well done...it is appreciated.

They deserve a thanks for every update they done. The game was completed the day it was released, they didn't have to do all these buffs/nerfs/events/updates/etcetc. They may not be perfect at balancing skills, but they still add lots of new features that everyone's pleased with.

I usually avoid the Riverside inn because of the tons of complaints from the kids who turn every thread into a flame fest. Hardly anyone on here ever takes the time to thank anet for all the new features added because they're too busy raging and comaplaining over nerfs.

Anet deserves a big thanks.

Hells Last Survivor is just trying to make a "Thank You" thread in an endless sea of complaint ones in Riverside.

He wasn't talking about in particular, he's talking about the people who constantly jump the gun and can never have fun in the game because all they do is complain. Perhaps you fall into that catagory?

Spreading the joy is usually a good thing for the Dev's. I'm guessing as a Dev it would give me a bit more confidence as oppose to people like you who can never be happy about updates eh?

Complain later, have fun with the new skills and updates, and stop spreading the hate Mr.Johnny Raincloud.

Thanks Anet- Me and my clanmates have gotten much enjoyment out of GW in the past couple years, and look forward to many more days of fun in the future. No matter how badly some people say you have screwed up the game, we will be there, because we play for fun. Keep up the good work!

Seriously guys, the point of combining professions to make a team better has just lost its point with this patch. As a warrior I loved to take CERTAIN mesmer stances to make a nice tanking combo however the armor cap went off limits.

yeah sure THANKS!

hope you catched the sarcasm in there.

I too really enjoyed this update and would like to give thanks for it.

The PvE skills are over-powered, but that's really what makes them so much fun =P And while some more things could have been fixed, I do think this is a great update.

Thanks!

Thank you Anet for this last update.

I really like how I can now go get a bounty to earn Luxon faction. Now I actually have a reason to focus a lot of my time out in places like Silent Surf and Gyala Hatchery to farm the monsters for reasons other than leveling.

Also, I really like the Sunspear Skills as they will add another interesting dynamic to my skillbars.

Kudos on this part. I look forward to testing the rest of the update as the week progresses.

I am sorry - but i can't agree with this.
PvE skills are the new minis.
Something you throw to the community as a diversion.
SURE the diversion is considered pretty darn sweet - but that doesn't mean the problem that one isn't looking at ISN'T there anyone!
So please - could we keep the two separated?

Thank you Anet for another wonderful update! I'm really looking forward to trying out those PvE-only skills. It's nice to know that there are some skills that will not be affected by the balance needed for the PvP side of the game.

You rock!

Thanks anet,

you did a great job at this game, i dont agree with the recent updates at all but if i look way back you guys did great, i apologise for my anger about the recent updates keep up the good work. Il be back when its worth playing for me this isnt meant sarcastic but the game lost too much things i liked about it, yet you did make a few people happy about this update so i guess your not all that bad. Im looking forward to Tabula Rasa since you made gw such a succes i think this will be the best folow up game to purchase.

Good luck with Guildwars 2

Congratulations! Playing together has got to be a better way than an online dating service to meet someone. I have met some wonderful people here in guildwars, seems you have too. I wish you both every happiness!

Thank you also a-net for a thankless job, I know mostly you see the complaints but not all of us are always unhappy with what you do. Some people will never be satisfied and some just look around for another post to complain on. While I am happier with some changes than with others I am also very glad to have a game that not only keeps evolving but that we as players get to have a voice and sometimes that makes a difference.

Yes I think some nice changes have been made again. Armor stacks although ofcourse very interesting and defensive i never used, and somehow i can understand that they are removed. At least for PvP they hinder lots of damage coming through. Now how should high end PvE be adjusted so that damage is controllable. I think still Mantra of Frost/They are on fire in combination with any shout will do nicely. But they rely on targets being on fire for a part. I think a good discussion on where hardmode should go to is at hands, and now maybe some time can be devoted to debilitate spike builds as well. Instant death is a bit silly as a game mechanism, a spike that can be prevented is still ok. Pressure however will put more emphasis on skill again, and maybe that has to be looked at or at least thought of.

Thank you for making a Thank you A-Net thread. I made one a while back, however it ended in an invasion of QQers.

A-Net deserves a big thanks for not only this update, but the job they've done in general(even though eve I am spectacle about the armour cap).

A big THANK YOU for A-Net who put up with the crap people on this forum give you and continue to support the game we love^_^

If it was perfect, it would get boring very quickly, as happens with everything in life...

I love guild wars and thanks to ANet, I expect I'll love GW2 as much if not more

Thanks Anet for the game and your efforts to update it and especially for putting up with the rude and ungrateful people here.

I trust you can learn to ignore people like Agyar just like the majority of us decent folks are trying to learn to ignore the likes of him.

As you know and can see there are far more of us who are appreciative of a decent game, than the minority who shout loudly and rudely.

edit - as i have said time and time again, its one thing to be dissapointed and dissatisfied, naturally you can and will feel that at times; being rude, insulting, and generally posting words that serves no useful purpose is not right

I just spent a fun time in GW and came to guru to start a thank you thread if I didn't find one already started. I found one! Thank you Hells Last Survivor.

I really enjoyed the new auto target feature, was surprised by the Xunlai chest change, like that I can now close the 'target' bar at the top of my screen if I want and had fun with one of the new sunspear skills. I look forward to exploring more changes over time.

Thank you Anet!

And congratulations Synles Chyld on your upcoming wedding. What a great love story. And what a beautiful place to meet!

Criticism is good, but one only offers criticism as a means to understanding how best to improve an already good start. Its important to stop and realize that there are, of course, many great things about Guild Wars. They too quickly get taken for granted in the discussions about the aspects that could be worked on and the things that arise in disagreement.

I dont always agree with the choices made but always understand they are made with the best intentions. Many thanks to Anet for all the hard work to bring us this far.

Thank you ANet for this update and for the last 2 years of constant good development of Guild Wars.

I think threads like this should be created more often since there is a increasing number of complaints.
