or go buy Fable II or just log in to guildGuru and QQ. (see there are options)

For me
Well there is always lots to do, Like after i finish GWAMM on my ele, there are 11 other professions i could get familiar with. I always wanted to learn the ways of a paragon.

I could socialize, maybe go do some Alliance Battles (watching some of these player can be very entertaining.)

Or i could go to presearing and team up with a brand new player and show him some cool stuff.

1. Join an entry level GvG guild. There are tons out there looking for players. Entry-level usually means top 500, top 800. If you don't have much GvG experience, don't expect to just jump into top 10.
Just by looking at http://www.teamquitter.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=8 , I can already see a couple entry-level GvG guilds looking for new players.
2. If you're already pretty decent, join a good GvG guild. If you're looking for one that's C1/R8+, they're probably bad anyway. Most good guilds don't ask for titles; they just ask that you know what you're doing and that you are a decent player looking to get better.
3. Find a couple friends and TA often. I have found that many of the well known, good GvG players come from TA. If you get good at TA, many GvG players who also play TA will notice you, and will recognize your ability.

Hypocrite.

If there's no fun for you, just quit.

OR

You get off your lazy ass and find a proper guild yourself. They won't come looking for you.

Well judging by your post you have done every single thing in the game, all titles, all campaigns finished in full etc so why dont you do what anyone normal would do , instead of crying about a game you have finished go buy a new game , thats what people usually do when they have mastered every aspect of a game.O_O

Loads still for me to do as I haven't finished Nightfall or Eye yet.

I like to get full value out of a game so even though my Characters are coming near to their third birthday I have plenty of gam eplay left.

What would I be doing if I had finished, probably getting some of the titles, I would like to map everywhere.

Get all the elites on one character
Grab a Black widow spider companion
Actually use my Hall of monuments
If really bored go get some fancy overpriced armour
Then play gw a couple of times a month till something else takes my interest.

I know some folks who are having fun with War Hammer.

But seriously. Find a guild that's doing what you want to do. If you want a PvP based guild, hang out in the GToB. On those rare occasions that I go there, I see recruiters looking to expand their guilds. They may not be top 100 (or even top 500) on the GvG ladder, but I'm pretty sure the ones that want to focus on GvG would LOVE to have skilled, active players help them climb the ladder.

Put in some effort to build PvP contacts so people have a clue who you are and stop expecting handouts in a competitive area.

AB is mega fun in a guildie team

All i do now is hang out with my guildie friends and do some RA when im not with them aswell as some titles. I make new chars with my guildies and i enjoy it. Don't get me wrong im not one of those "No-lifers" from picken square i still play the game just always with ppl.

As for your opinoin on HA it is true Pugs do fail if there not about R8 ++ So.... get off ur arse and find a guild. I can honestly say that this game would not even be close to fun once you have done all the games once without a fun guild.

Furthermore make a ranger get him to lvl 20 Ctrl +Shift+H mode and hunt stuff x) I VQ Old Asc solo on my ranger simply by 'hunting' and you know what... most fun i have ever had by myself.

At the end of the day dude just quit. Guild wars is a dying game... its true but theres nothing wrong imo to leave a online game for another while you are waiting its sequal. I myself am not a 24/7 GW gamer now im playing through GW and KH2 while saving up for a Xbox 360 so i can buy fable 2. Thats my ultimate plan for games for the next few weeks

I hope GW can win you back......somehow.

i herd AB is srs bsns and makes you pr0.

lyke, nowai... AB... srs bsns? gtfo! omg!!! OMFG!!! /AB

lol, nah. but if you don't like GW anymore then get a new game and play through that one til you're bored. once you are bored with that, repeat the process. of course, GW is a dying game, no point in pointing out the obvious, right? i have done everything humanly possible to do on GW so i am quite bored with it, but, i won't quit. why? because of the fact that i've tried other games and they just dont satisfy me the way GW once did, so, i return to my first MMO love: guild wars.

in the end whatever happens, happens. you can always sit in kamadan all day and look for things to buy/powersell to increase your e-peen? that, or, find yourself one of those e-thugs in kamadan and have an all out royal borale in local chat and make a fool out of him? that's always fun to do. ^^

i'm running out of options for you.... i don't know what all you have accomplished in GW so my tips are rather limited.

Thought of trying this "Real Life" but there is a monthly fee to pay, although they call them taxes.
You have to run just the one character and when you die its for real.

On the plus side its very realistic seldom crashes and you can restyle your characters hair.

*waves goodbye*

I've so many things I have not done in the game, Its pretty much still alive and kicking to me! I like the fact that Arena Net is leaving the HoM "open" as in whenever you reach a certain "point/title" in OGW (original guild wars, saw that being used in wiki) it will be automatically updated in GW2, so pretty hard to kill OGW in my opinion, try as you all might! its here to stay and if you have "fulfilled" your dream in OGW, i suggest you move on, no one can tell you anything to make you stay or vice versa.

Spend time talking to the young ones in Shing Jea while you periodically remove articles of clothing while calling out "Naked Dance Party over here come join"

Try to scam people out of there high end items with a recall assassin.. (I think it's recall)

Make a really offensive name. Use your ban time to go out and get a hobby and stop QQing in here.

There's 3 things which will not only give you entertainment but may enrich your life with another unrelated activity.

I consider these suggestions to be quite constructive and in no way a flame or dumb crap

As surgested by previous posters, perhaps it's just time to quit or at least take a break?
Everyone will experience this point at a certain time, the content of a game is limited and the challenge of PvP doesn't last forever.
It's a game, not life (at least, that's what people keep telling me).

You may have learned how to play PvP (although I making an assumption on that), but you haven't learned how to find teams for it. Spend time finding a guild that does GvG if you want to do GvG, or learn how to find people that do HA, TA, etc. when you want to do it. There is a thing called Europe, and people over there play at times different than that other thing called America. If the place you are at is dead, switch to a new place.

Utilize 2 in game lists.
1) Guild Roster
2) Friends List

Honestly, what does he expect us to say to this? play the game...or don't
Have fun playing or dont....

Why don't you do something outside gw if youve apparently played the game to its fullest. Why did u play the games 5 times dont tell me you were forced. How much hours have u played guild wars, if alot find something else in life and be greatful for the amount of gameplay you got outta this.. If little then you havent played it enough....

To be honest ive played over 3 yrs, i still enjoy it and theyre isn't much games i can say have lasted that long for me. ive been playing this long and have 10 characters but im yet to master them all. I could set up a variety of builds for each.

there a small little features ive never done. It wasn't until last year i tried the elite areas.
I am yet to do urgoz or the deep.
I am yet to kill Rotscale...after 3.5years i know...
HA
GVG
alot more pvp.
tombs

Ive got kurzick title from alot of AB but im still yet to master it. I have finally got back into it following that last weekend as it provided me to get the luxon title now i joined a new guild.
Im glad new people (^^^^^) arent finding they joined late and are enjoying playing. Getting to droks by the way for your first time is a big deal

"Your opinion isn't valid on absolutely anything because your gear and arena rating sucks! And that's why you have no valid opinions on how annoying the zombies are near the beginning of Lich King!"

But still, some people like to nosedive into things, others like to watch and laugh.
