My R/W Swordslinger. Because I love it when the whammo in the group moans about how much I'm gonna die, then I outlast them 4 times before they ragequit.
Knowing your build ftw.
Favourite Character?

Monk!
NJudson
While I do enjoy playing my monk I don't think it is my favorite. Although you can typically get accepted into a group very easily it is the most frustrating character simply because the groups survival falls onto your shoulder's regardless of whether the team plays well or if you're in a group with idiots....but I guess monk frustrations should be saved for other threads (Lord knows there is a lot of them).

I spent 400k + gold on my ranger a few days ago buying him some sweet bows and nice armor and I am enjoying him very much. Trapping is great but slow, B/P is great in topk and fow, Beast Master is sick too bad i got an elder spider, and Poison arrow is my new favorite elite. I dont know why but the fact that i can poison people for 20 seconds for only 3 energy is great.
Plus the fast recharge in combined with all the preparations and spirits i can get some great damage.
Negatives are sometimes hard to get in a group (Warrior, Nuker, Monk) only...

I'd definately have to say my good old monk 
Second has to be my Mesmer(I think, I've been messing around with some super nice builds lately)

I equally like all classes I've played so far. The only ones I have yet tried is Mesmer and Assasin.
Since my first character was an Elemenalits (e/r, now e/me) I have a soft spot for my ele Ritualist is comin in very close second.

Kindle Dagger anyone?? Conjure Flame + Ganker Build ftw

Mesmer FTW!
There is nothing more enjoyable than seeing your enemy pissed off
Second would have to be necro - so much to do with them, and MM rocks.
Thirdly would be Ele - higher damage = fun.
Fourth would be Monk/Warrior - both higherly enjoyable, but can get boring.
Lastly would be Ranger/Ritualist - just find there style boring
Haven't tested assasin yet :P

I prefer Mesmer in PvP and monk in PvE. Ranger is a close second in both though
bulletsmile
hmmmm hmmmm hmm hmm hmm hmmmm, really hard to decide this one, but i will probably say ritualist right now, i like to make all those spirits
LifeInfusion
Necro: I love to laugh when things die since I get free energy to make MORE things die.
Argen
Pre-Nerf Ele 
Post Nerf is a toss up between Ele and Monk, though I am thoroughly enjoying PvPing with my Mesmer and some PvE with that same class as well.

i like my ele, necro and monk. depends on my mood of the day which i prefer out of um though. usually i prefer necro, recently i've been monking everything, but i used to always, always play ele.
don't care much for the rit or sin. never been one to hack and slash so warrior is a no no, i keep starting a ranger but never seem to get very far...

Ranger and Mesmer ftw
Monk a close second but thats mainly because i can get groups easily.

For my first choice I can't decide between mesmer and monk. Necro is a close third.
Hm, I wonder why Guru posters are disproportionately mesmer fans. From reading this thread, you'd expect to see twice as many mesmers as warriors running around ingame.

Tied for first: Elementalist and Mesmer.
Second: Ranger

Close Fourth: Monk.
Maybe most of the posters here - or the main posters, at any rate - actually know the game well enough.

I think the only class I'm not a big fan of is Assassin - shamefully due to the way they look more than anything else...I'm so shallow. Other than that, I'm having a ball with my Monk.
Muse of Shadows
N/Me Pwns all.
MM is absolute S**T - not because of how good/crappy they are, but how they are played. Curse/blood mix usualy works best, with a few mesmer hex's for backup.
Close second is warrior though, with monk or necromancer secondary usualy. I do NOT play wammo's or plague touch warriors - my builds are, as far as I know and am concerned, custom. I rairly see warriors using balthazar's spirit or enfeeble/rigor mortis/defile flesh.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that looks are a BIG factor, and will never play a canthan character unless it is only available in cantha (assassin/ritualist). I also call my W/N build a hexblade.

1) Ranger - Love archery and hugging trees
2) Warrior - W/Mo mostly... The classic hero/knight in shining armor/runner
3) Monk - Easy to find groups and you get to heal people n' stuff

Eviance
Now and forever my Ranger. She is sezzy and versitile XD
And altho you didn't ask but it seems to be the trend in here:
Second would be my wammo (WITH MENDING! - only cause I run with 15% while enchanted sword and ONLY for farming.)
Second tied with Wammo is my NECRO! I am not the best MM but its fun, SS is great and if I can click fast enough Blood Spike
3rd... Well that would be my mesmer, who doesn't get near enough play time.

I started with a necromancer my first time in figuring that would be 'my thing' but then I tried an elementalist / mesmer and have found that to be very enjoyable. The only build I can find online for this mix is the 'nuker' build, which is not how I've been playing it, and with so little other information, it's been interesting to just experiement and see what I can do.
Opeth11
I love playing with my monk. Travelling around with my guild and henchmen around the whole game as a monk doesn't cause much trouble and is fairly simple and fun. Of course, there's also a little thing called '55'. =D
I suppose the warrior would be my second favourite. There's just something about going in-your-face to a monster and hack them to bits.

Assassin definetly... I love shadowstepping..it's so fun.
HawkofStorms
My ele, just because he was my first character. After over 1 million exp, a lot of farming, and a lot of FoW/UW with him, and its just hard to not love him.
My necro is a close second. If I had made my necro first I might like them more. Orders in tombs, MM for Oro before the book trick was broken, blood spike, and just a bunch of blood/curses stuff is really fun to play. Not really a huge MM fan. It just seems to simiplistic and overpowered in PvE.

Azail
Got to be Monk. Monk was my first character...it was Mo/R, and you couldn't tell me back then I was supposed to heal people, I was an Archer all the way. Pet and everything.
Needless to say, he's evolved since then, so Mo/Me gets my vote, as Mesmer is just plain retarted as a secondary profession (as in good ).

Necro and Warrior are my favorite characters as of right now. Necro, I don't know why. Warrior, I just like to destroy things as a solo fighter (not partied up).
Yukito Kunisaki
W/N, always had, always will, since WPE in Oct. 2004.
W/N was just TOOOO good with the necro skill seet.
curses made him a defensive Lord (Enfeebling Blood, Shadow of Fear)
even made him deny some energy (wither/malaise)
Life sucker? Why Not (anything blood magic)
even anti-magic?! (mark of subversion)
Diseased runner (death magic, not minions, other spells)
And the ever popular
PLAGUE TOUCH!
Yeah, W/N is invincible. Lovin' it!

1. Necro - Something about casting Spiteful Spirit + Reckless Haste and watching them kill themselves.
2. Mesmer - Something about casting Empathy or Backfire and watching them kill themselves.
3. Monk - Something about casting Shield of Judgement and watching them kill themselves.
I mostly pve, so they do kill themselves.

I like my ranger, she used to be my favorite, but then I dsicovered Minion Mastery. Even with the nerf, she still pwns the games, when I run a MM build I always get master rank.
16 death
12 soul
8 healing
I got the golem, fiends and minnions
I attack with rotting flesh and plague sending
I use BotM for healing the "boys"
I have healing breeze, for me which also allows me to cast it on everytone else
And last of all rebirth, when we start dying, with 12 in soul I got energy to spare.
