GWguru in guild wars.
Lawliet Kira
Since this is the biggest guild wars fansite, i suggest implementing in guildwars like they did wiki kind of. Like, you could post new threads in guru while your playing guildwars. You could sell an item while guildwars is on, like press f12 i think thats the one for wiki, but lets say that. If your stuck in a part in a quest or mission, you could just post while playing guildwars

And watch the number of "what's the best way to make money?" threads explode. Eh... /onthefence
Although I do think this would tick off GWO and other fan sites. I don't want people whining about how "OMG a.net thinks their fan site is better, boycott until they link our site to the game too."

Wiki is useful. It is a resource site
GwGuru is entertaining. It is a discussion site.

Yeah I mean, pfft Guru has nothing that is a resource or useful. THANKS FOR THE PLUG THERE HELIX. <3 you too man
And no, integration of just a forum in general is not something that has been developed or could be reliably used in a way that would prove a benefit while in game.

I don't understand why you can't just minimise. Besides, there isn't much point integrating Guru anyway.

I always keep mine in window mode :P

Guru doesn't need official integration into the game client, at best perhaps the Help window could provide a list of Fansites and links to them... as opposed to a link to the official GW site's list fan sites, as it currently does.

Protip; Set GW to windowed. Alt-tab to Guru.

Srsly. Every time anyone makes a new thread about "Integrate _______.com into guildwars!" I'm posting That link, the steam guildwiki link and the steam website link.

I've been raged at for modding Guru in HA many a time.

/nosign for the following reason....
Guru is about the biggest Grief-fest there is. I'm sad to see the game's staff even bother wasting their time here.
*runs!*

"What in darnation is that Monk doing over there? Heal please?"
5 minutes later
"Sorry, was just posting a suggestion on Guru about how the skill icon of Vamprism needs an overhaul".

1. The percentage of GW players that have even heard of guildwars guru is very small.
2. A fair amount of people who know about guru (among other fan sites) think very little of the quality of the discussions in these forums.
3. If Guild Wars Guru got a special link in-game, then it would only be fair to add links to other fan sites such as GWO and presearing.com. (the former sucks, the latter doesn't)
4. F10 works just fine as a launch point for internet surfing.

all F10 does anyway is minimize. It just automatically opens the browser.

Weren't you for Twitter being integrated? Guru would be more beneficial than Twitter. At least it relates to the game.
Still /unsigned. Alt-tab or play in windowed mode. Most computers nowadays should be able to handle that.
Morbid Conclusion
This would work if the GW site just had their own forum. Then no fansite could complain

/undecided
It seems a great idea if implemented properly because it would get more participation from more users, however the implications need to be well thought out and the advertising in game is ftl.

I feel that if you want ________.com integrated into guild wars, talk to ____________.com, not Anet.
