I have taken two 6 month breaks since GW originally came out. The first time I left was when they FUBAR'd the enemy AI and added HM. I gave that 3 days then left, thought for good, but I came back later on and they had made some decent changes, but I soon got bored again. Once I got bored of COD 4 I gave GW another throw and have become addicted again, but to pvp in RA now, LOL. I have no friends online that play guild wars, so RA works great for me, until I got banned yesterday for bad name .

I stopped playing as often as I did a year ago to try other games. I still come back rarely just for the nostalgia of roaming around the beautiful Ascalon and the music.

I might be back for GW2, just so long as I don't have to team up with real people. I like playing alone.

Only until I finish Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind+Tribunal+Bloodmoon.

Until then, I'll come back only after game updates to check how things have changed.

I haven't stopped playing, but I have slowed down and begun to take some time away from it. The weekend events haven't been anything I've been interested in the past few weeks, so I dusted off my Oblivion and started replaying that. Added a few new mods, trying some new tweaks and so on. It's fun!

More or less, Yes.
All i do nowdays is to sell off items i never use +some dungeon farming.

There is simply nothing left to do after more then 3 years and you have done all there is in the game.
Sure there is grinding for titles for GW2, but i can't stand it. I have my Maxed Titles (People know me ect) i want on my chars.

Now i'm waiting for GW2!

Nope.

I play around 3-4hs/day if I'm at home, and continue our daily guild runs as we have been doing for the past 2.5 years.

I stopped for about 4 or 5 months to play other stuff because GWs was bothering me. But I recently came back to my main to finish mapping Tyria. Once that's done, I think i'll stop playing all togather until GWs 2 comes out. It's just a boring game now.

Same here - tried WoW, didn't like it - tried EQ2, didn't like it - trying Lineage2, don't like it.

All the people who are playing aren't posting on forums, they are enjoying the game. I mix up what I do between AB and PvE, so at the rate I am playing I have plenty left to do.

I'm still playing and posting on forums. Admittedly, I dont play as much. I'll do it in bits, say 2 or 3 achievements (vanquishing an area, 2/3 hero battles or a tourny, enough ABs to donate 1/2 times, capping a skill or two), then i'll pack it in for the night.

Working full time cuts down a lot of play time. Back to Uni soon though! w00t, time to overplay and fail.

I still log on, but you may as well say I stopped playing. All I do is pop in to say hello to some friends. I have no interest in questing or anything else at this point. I am just completely burnt out on it.

There is no possible way GW1 could keep me occupied until GW2 is released...no possible way. More than likely I will move on to other games (especially if D3 is released first), and GW2 will not capture my interest enough to try it...but eh, who knows.

But yeah, quick reply..."I stopped playing".

I stopped for a bit. I still pop on here and there, do a few point runs or ab but nothing like a use too.

Been playing Sins of a solar empire and gearing up for some socom and LBP on the PS3, along with a few others.

I really just want the "account-wide titles *hoping*" HoM changes. That and the messed up crap with Vow of Strenght, kinda made my main *D/* dull. Was right back to WS. So break was needed. I feel bad for those players who have all toons beefed up to r5 KOBD, they must be bored out of their skulls.

Stopped playing? No. I do play very rarely though. In given time I have played about 1 hour in the last week. I do want to play but my time is mostly used elsewhere with Uni and work.

So, Ile always be there for you when you lose players Guild Wars

You'll get tired of it one day, believe me.

This past summer I enjoyed playing because I did HA every night. Now that school has started and my FL doesn't really HA anymore, I still PvE and casually farm. I bought EoTN but never really played it and I might start, but from what little I've played I don't like it at all. Just been working on actually finishing all the campaigns and getting titles.

Still AB occasionally. Coming October I will most probably not be playing much given some of the anticipated games are coming for my xbox 360.

haven't quit, totally addicted. that's the best part about this game is that whenever you feel like you are about to quit, there is always some new goal you feel you need to achieve.

It has been about 50/50 for me; half lack of interest, the other half work related. Still, I see myself sticking around, filling what I can in the HoM and then moving on to GW2.

Kind of... all I really do is AB these days and help my brother with missions... my guild is becoming really inactive, and I'm really busy with schoolwork so I haven't been able to play Guild Wars much.

Ya, I pretty much stopped playing about 2 months ago. I just got really tired and bored of doing the same things over and over. I do log on once in awhile, but usually log right back out. I also check out my bdays. I also log in to collect tourney points for zkeys, use them up, then log out. I ran through the MoX quest once, and that was pretty much it.

Guild Wars was the game I played the most, now I barely play anything at all... Instead I just browse around on the net looking for new games, or just checking out news on upcoming games like Call of Duty: World at War, or Diablo III. I wish we had some Guild Wars 2 news to check out once in awhile, but I guess that is not happening anytime soon. Maybe if they gave us some info, that might keep us playing GW1, and working our HoM's a bit more. But of course, Anet does not see things they way we do... they all killing their own game.

Not a lot for me these days. I popped on to play my paragon and started playing through Nightfall. Then I remembered that eventually I'd have to do the Gate of Pain mission... and it really sucked all the wind right out of me.

I've been pretty active in another game and it's community, helping run a clan over there, ect, so that's mostly what's kept me busy. I'll play GW sometimes to play with friends, but not like I used to. I still like the game, and that's part of why I don't play - so that my playing is something I only do when I want to, and so it stays fun when I do it.
