Marhan's Grotto takes the prize as the fashion capitol of GW. Nowhere in the game will you find such a concentration of fissure armor, 15K outerwear and custom dye jobs. Here's an example of the sartorial splendor to be found behind the velvet rope at Marhan's on an average evening.

Grotto is dumb theres just a bunch of noobs braggin about how they have 15k armor now and how it cost them all their money (lol) and then people who are new at the game think they're really cool so encourage them and then the noobs who never have had attention in guild wars because they are noobs start bragging and stuff and its really annoying. Of course there are cool people that hang out there too but its mostly just people like that. Which reminds me of a funny story, some guy came up to me and asked if i would trade him my fow helm and then he would give it right back. I asked why and he said to show me that he could be trusted. I said i'd give him my 15k ascalon helm but he said no it has to be fissure. So then i played around with him showing stuff in the trade window then cancelling and stuff until he went away.

Grotto is nowhere near as cool as FH.

Grotto indeed is a fun place to hang around at. With Drake constantly yelling at someone, it keeps you entertained. And most people hang there to get away from the "noobs" that beg all the time, but then again we get the occasional "OMG your all rich, someone give me 15k for my armor"

i quickly got tired of the stupidity, and childishness (yes, even too childish for me, and thats hard to accomplish, congrats grotto) and the worse among the worse, the male warrior humping everything and all the monk hugging everybody
please people, i still have a little bit of hope for our species, dont ruin it for everybody

The old days were the best. Just random sync dancing and people having good fun. Now it's just fill with people arguing and fighting for no reason. It's kind've sad and pathetic. =/
Don't know how it is these days, since I stop going there now. Thank goodness for International districts and another place where I idle (not saying where).

Personally, I spend as little time at the Grotto as humanly possible.
The undead Mesmer
Lions arch Int d-1 when gaile or the frog arent there is the most fun place to be.

back then it was a fun place, you could arrive, say "hi" and get a respond like "hey", we used to have dance parties, sliding stuff, pvp discussions and such, now all there is left is "LOL NUBS I R PRAWN U ALL", people arguing about regions (europe sucks, america sucks...blah blah), people arguing about armor ("fow armor sux" - "lol nub ur just jealus").

The only time I went to the Grotto was to craft my 15k, I didn't like the slow floor thing.

I enjoyed the good o' days in grotto. 
That was when people actually had some sense on everyone around them. And for once, it was a place where it had mature people. Now when I come by to get a little pep of whats goin' on, I always see little kids goin' "0mGz0r! u hav a d33r!! i hav nu emote, h0w u g3t d33r?!" D:<< Ruined the fun there. :/ Now, some female ranger, necro, mesmer or ele that comes and dance there, your soon to bound into a male warrior thrusting. D:<

Grotto was a place where I could hang out for hours just talking about random stuff. I used to form parties from people from Grotto for fissure or underworld, normally had a group in like 5 minutes, and everyone knew what they were doing xD. Tried it recently and all I got for my efforts was being called a nub cause I didnt have friends who could play with me. Ray's pic is funny because I know so many of the people in it.
Have to add, Dante's game quizzes were ftw.

Even though its not as fun as it used to be, Grotto is still the best place to be out of all of the Guild Wars Areas. That is, if you put all of the beggars on your ignore list first.
