Contrary to popular belief, the world doesn't revolve around America.

But yes, Happy Birthday USA, & i'm still happy to see Guru alive!

It's still there. Might need to be logged out to see it though.

And anyone else getting seriously pissed off at the constant redirects on iOS to adverts from this site? Grrrrrr.

Maybe they've decided to monetize our activity. Maybe they won't shut us down as long as we keep visiting and seeing ads.

Also, up another day. Woohoo!

To the entire Guru community:

It's with a heavy heart that I must inform you that this site, Guild Wars Guru, will be shutting down on July 1st and will remain in Archive Mode. Over the past 11 years, we've become, and continued to remain, the #1 fansite for Guild Wars, and it's all because to you guys. Without such a strong and passionate community, Guru would have never made it this far and so we thank you for that.

And while we will be saying good-bye to our home here, we will continue to host forums for the GW community over at our sister site, Guild Wars 2 Guru. In fact, you are more than welcome to head on over now and begin posting. If you have any threads you'd like to transfer over, now would be the time.

So once again thank you, and especially those that contributed their time and knowledge to make Guru the amazing place it was. We'll see you over at Guild Wars 2 Guru!

we can always hope.....I think we have had more traffic since they announced the 'closing' than 2 has (for the last few months )....still think they should keep us and regulate them to a tiny part of our wonderful site (and yes, you can have some of what I am smoking...er, taking--allergy meds can be wonderful stuff!)

I wish I had an accurate data on the actual comparison of popularity between Guild Wars 1 and its sequel, like, what were the player numbers in the original game's heyday, and how does it look for Guild Wars 2 now.

On the subject of this board, it is of course not a convenient event for us, the readers, seeing it all being locked and moved, yet, since not many of us are aware of the actual values Curse had to spend to keep it running, I simply wish it further prospering at the new place, although I'd personally prefer seeing a dedicated forum for the whole original game, no matter the popularity around ArenaNet's latest creation.

It was nice seeing THX being mentioned, thanks to Patrick for giving this site a go back in the days of early Beta Weekend Events! It's been a long time, heh.
