Don't Update Guild Wars Anymore

With the recent Dev Update thread it is apparent that the guru community is no matter happy with what the Dev's do. People will only ever bitch and moan about everything so my suggestion is this:

Do not update Guild Wars anymore!

My reason for this suggestion is if the community never appreciates the hard work you are trying to do then why even bother? RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO it! Instead of wasting time on a bunch of whiny 12 year olds devote all efforts into making GW2 a better game.

Thank you and God bless!

Guru is not the community. Guru is a tiny slice of the community, mixed in with a bunch of jaded players who have long since stopped playing and only hang around to troll and b****. The community at large does not read dev updates, and has no idea what ANet is planning; go into any random district (besides high level Kamadan dists) and proclaim that we're getting storage updates, and I guarantee you'll be met with a large number of "Really?" responses.

LOL, most players don't even read the notices when they sign on, let alone dev notes

I personally prefer not to impersonate an ostrich :P

why are you one of the people who thinks the same exact people who work on guild wars work on guild wars 2, and why do you also think that a company such as arena net and it's employees have no sense of managing their time, work, and effort? no.

the "work more on guild wars 2" thing has never been a valid statement, still isn't, and won't ever be.

Oh, I see, so a troll thread since only trolls don't fail at the thread.

That can be taken a different way though, the "Really?" could just stand for people not trusting someone randomly going to a district and passing out information. You could also say, "We're getting storage updates in 4 months" and come up with a completely different response.

this.

do you people honestly think the people who work at A-net are just goin...."eeeh i think im gonna work on GW2 for awhile, no biggie" "that GW1 sure needs updating, im gonna take time out of GW2 for it"
they have assignments, teams of people, projects, and deadlines just like any other company. its not a GOREDENGINEing playground where they get to do whatever they want

Yay no more updates to GW so the player base will disintergrate and no one will care about GW2...

DUH! Do you even know what they do at Anet? TWO teams working on things.. Live Team and the GW2 team....

Perhaps you should spend some money, fly out to see them and explain where their business plans are wrong....

Generally speaking a player base consists of a very small minority who create the greatest noise over everything.
They will call for change and moan about change constantly.

Then there is the far larger group who usually keep silent they don't even belong to a forum for the most part.
They say little, only occasionally will such a player be moved to comment.

Don't make changes because we are all ungrateful ? I think not, we are mostly unconcerned about change and some are unaware of same.

Yeah..they have done that with my sin build too before (nerfed it), then I`ve stoped playing sin and started ranger...then I have lost interest in game in month, then tried to play everything from beginning...and now after all of that, I am back with sin and am having more fun then ever. and so it goes on and on. Gw is more then excellent game, not flawless, but still is an excellent game...and considering updates, only thing I dont like is that they are making things easier with some of them. After all the tougher the game, the better feeling when u pass it
And yeah, another "flaw" as Skyy said it, is gw guru community (not all but around 30-50 members out of about 5mil of them) who are crying all the time cause they dont know what to do...if you dont like the game go play something else.
After all, for not paying a single coin after you have bought game with expansion, this is game that you can play for years, which by the way most of the games wont provide to you.

GW would become extremely boring (imo; some people will probably say it already is) if you don't add/change some things every now and then
