After some technical difficulties and Curse server upgrades, PvXwiki is up and running! The new site can be found at www.gwpvx.com.

The database transfer started October 20th, so any builds posted since then haven't been ported over. If you had an account on [email protected], you can reclaim it using the User Migration tool. Additionally, no votes were carried over; get busy vetting builds! More information can be found in the corresponding news post.

Awesome, thank you.
The vandalism was annoying for those that binned their Skill folder and wanted to download the meta ones over... quickly.

Looks MUCH better than the old PvX... I like how the skill descriptions actually display when you hover over the images... Didn't happen half the time before which is frustrating for newer players who don't know exactly what every skill does. I like to use PvX for reference on build making so being able to look at a build page and see what skills do what and what they synergise with is really useful and informative.

Nice work guys ^_^

I'm glad we have a proper source of information again, without all the silly Hamstorms etc etc. It also looks much better now.

It was about time.

Wikia wikis are the easy way, but the most annoying for users too.

Great news. Now I don't have to keep telling people in Q&A not to go there at this time. The site looks wonderful.

And what was wrong with chuck norris? I thought it was the greatest build ever!

Will this mean that there will no longer be annoying re-directs to other pages which significantly slow down the browsing experience?

Great! Will be glad when the unofficial Guild Wars wiki moves also. The new Wikia layout is just awful.

To do that, though, it seems like you have to let nocookie.net run scripts. :/ Just allowing gwpvx.com to run scripts doesn't help.

The account move thingy doesn't work for me, but nice to see PvX back even if it's flawed.

The account reclaiming process is still pretty buggy iirc. Hopefully phen will have it all sorted out soon xD

Nice to see the old format back....hopefully the old pack mentality did not transfer over as well. (b4 someone asks..pvx had groups of ppl that would gang up on everything....was quite the plague)

At least somebody has the guts to address this, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Glad to see it's back. Now for the wiki to get moved off of that awful format. Then everything will be fine again =)

Awesomely done people. Nice to see site up and running at it's new location at last. Potential initial errors and bugs on the new server (as usually happens on a server-swap) are forgiven in tenfold just for getting away from the Wikia-domain.
