First of all, don't give it to noobs. They'll be happy.. yes, they'll buy stuff with it but even though you may think you're helping them, you really are not.
By giving money or items to new guys you'll deny them the ability find stuff themselves. They'll never have to go out and "earn" money. They'll never have to figure out what the best items for the job is. They'll just walk around in 15K armour with a victos axe and they'll think they rock.

A better way to help noobs is by giving them advice or some direction.

There is no "catch up" in GW.

If you want to get back into gw just play for a few hours and you'll be back on track.

Reading this makes me think, what could I do with 300k?

I would probably waste it all on vanity items. Specifically new Factions armor for my old Prophecies characters. With a full-time job, a girlfriend and friends who want me to play other games with them, its often hard to get in enough time in GW to farm all the faction needed for Kurzick and Luxon armors. So really, I think most of the money would be spent on Jade and Amber to craft new armor for my Necromancer and my Warrior.

Weapons and other items aren't of much use to me, I tried doing the multiple sets of armor and multiple sets of weapons thing, and it just leads to you creating a storage character, which is no fun at all. So anything besides money, I would either sell it off, or give it away. Pretty much first come first serve to Guild, then Alliance, then Local chat.

I don't deserve your stuff though, I just want it to buy my characters better looking armor.

Canada...... Eh!

Personally I'd like it just so I could do something fun with my characters for once. I always have to do everything when I play rpgs. And kill everything. I'd just once like to play a character that goes out kills a couple critters, goes into a town, buys a round of dwarven ale for everyone one day...... in LA...... Dis 1......

Either that or just play a game of hide and seek like some guys do, and give the person that finds you a reward based on how fast they find you and what level they are. Say a level 4 guy finds you in under a minute, give him like 10k. A level 17 finds you in 5, give him 1k. Then jump all over the map to different major cities, rinse, repeat. Or buy a couple of high end items and sell them on the guru auction house with a "buy now only" price of 1g.

I suggest keeping it, but if not I would like to have the gold.

The reason, recently a couple of my friends have joined Guildwars and being good mates that they are took all my money (20k) trying to get themselves on their feet. This money would help us, our own little guild buy addons and armor/weapons plus some left on the side to say that i actually had money for once.

even a constellation prize of the superior vigor would make me happy.

yeah, feigning disinterest is exactly what everybody is doing. telling him to keep it himself or give it to people who actually need it will make him want to give it to us. believe it or not many people who told him to save it do not need it which is exaclty what we said

i would like the money because i really dont have that much. i have around 50k throughtout all my characters, because i am buying new things for my guild hall right now. i also would like the money to buy items for my assasin and monk i recently made, superior vigor, greens, armor etc. also yesterday, with the new greens coming out, i soloed about 10 totem axes last night, when the price was around 50k, and gave them to my close guildies, and kept one for my own monk. i do have 2 pairs of 15k armor, so i used to have a little money, but now with the guild hall npcs, ive been focusing on buying them for my guild so that it is alot more convient for us.

i really could use the money, but it is your call on who you think comes up with the best reason.

Well ill be honest, i would love to take your money and your stuff off ur hands, i am kinda poor right now after spending all my money that i saved up over the course of the year on my luxon 15k armor and my new sword, but now i have a new character and i would like to get him some fissure armor. But before you think i am greedy i should tell u that i often help my brother and freinds on guild wars, giving them weapons, runes and money, to give an example around christmas time my brother really weanted an ids, so i farmed for a LONG long LONG long LONG time, and i finally got 2, 1 i kept and 1 i gave to him, these were worth 80k at time, and i run ppl everywhere for free or nearly free occasionally so plz cinsider me when u give away ur stuff

I'd visit the local Tyrian Animal Rescue Center and spend it all adopting mini Charr Shamans. The payment will cover the shelter donation, adoption fee, grooming, and shots. Consider it a good cause, as I'd be helping these lost and orphaned Charr mini pets find a new and loving home. Y^Y

You sure are defensive for such a charitable soul. My point was, it's human nature to want it, and there's no way nobody wanted it. Look, nobody said they wanted it before Bethany spoke up, and now every other post has "Me plx". Simply saying, took guts to be the first. :P

Its not that I DESERVE IT... but its that I could really use it.

Reason why?

at my house in real life we put the computer into the hottest room in the house.... the front porch that is surrounded by giant windows with no curtains.

So now throughout the whole year (yes even winter) It's a total crapshoot on how long guildwars will run before the videocard malfunctions and either gives me some error that I have to restart... or the computer just restarts automatically without warning.

Its the worst right now during the summer and I have barely been able to go more than 5 minutes.

Its not that the connection is crappy, the video card is, but the family wont give the money nor do I have the money to buy something with better cooling. Which is why I play guild wars >.> no money for monthly fee.

And because of all of this I cannot raise money to save my life, now and then i can get 2-3 mino runs with my ele but that was a while ago. I can't even raise the money by farming to get something nice now x.x or just the farming is less than half the speed it was now.

So thats why, I don't deserve it really, but I could really really use it. I have been playing for nearly a year now (did /age and im at 11 months) so im not some noob or something that wants a hand-me-down. Its just now I no longer am even able to raise money anymore. Not to mention all my old cool items have gone through lots of depreciation and price reduction, so can't sell my stuff for a profit either.

Would be nice to have a break this overheating problem is just wearing me down, I am so frustrated. Plus I can save the money so I can buy some nice rit armor when I buy Factions pretty soon =), my comp also sucks bad enough that I CANNOT do pvp because of uber lag around other players, so forget trying to get faction to buy armor.

edit: another reason, I would like to buy my first sup vig or abs rune.... been playing a damn year and haven't gotten a single one of either x.x

Being poor sucks... I hate it... Would be nice to have some money to look at in storage.

I'm not going to blow smoke up your ass by trying to promote myself... Either I get the stuff or I dont... Either way it wont change how I play.

I'll take it!


It's been my goal on Guild Wars to reach 1 million gold without ever extensivly farming/grinding.

I've never gotten the anti-farm message and right now I am at 750,000. I need your gold to accomplish my goal!


I'll make it my wish in the 'make a wish foundation.' I'm dying of the same disease that Chris Griffin had.

1. Sorry to hear you're leaving GW

2. I'm rich with more money than I could ever possibly spend even if I tried -- and I have. ;-)


3. I want to be more rich.




But that's me. My honest suggestion is because there is so many other good reasons in this thread why other people could use your money, is to divide it up among the best reasons.

Or give it to me because I'm already amazingly rich.

first thing first: sorry to hear that you're quiting gw ( I don't know you tho, but I bet if I knew you, I would like you )

I need the money...because I never get such great amounts of cash...I never have the time to farm descent, because my dad has a program on my pc so after one hour playing, it shutsdow believe me, it is impossible to ever get ''rich'' or even reach 200K....imagine you're farming oro, you just killed drago, and you got his bow...and suddenly *bzzzzzm* and everything is gone :| I hate it ! and I bet every player will understand that....
so it would be great to get that ammount or gold....I could finally finish my monk's 15K too !

well, it's up to you to decide, and I just think you're amazing for giving this away to whoever it may win, not many ppl do that !

if i had that money id hold a few little skirmishes in my alliance and the winners would get good portions. maybe 25k total for each tourny, and have a tourney once a week. this would be a great way for me to spread the wealth, but im sure other people have other even less greedy ideas. i honestly dont need the money for myself as i have 800k across 2 accounts and just bought fow armor on my necro. i just had the thought of the tourny pop into my head and thought id give it a try.

I may just give the account away but we will see about that.
the 300k woujld be nice but i could use the sup vig. Gold comes and goes like the wind in GW.

no need for another account. after having two accounts full of junk and helping my brothers, heck i'm about to give out my second account... but ya give it to a friend or buddy to try out GW. Pass the love. Gave away my extral D2 key to my cousin he loves it!

also like the other guy said give the gold to a guild.

I deserve it because:

1. I've been playing since day 1 of guild wars, also in the betas before

2. Didn't get the pre nerf farming stuff(hod sword..)

3. I'm a very unlucky person, never get any good drops

what I would do with it:

1. I would give away 90K in ascalon through a quiz(multiple questions, not all at once)

2. I would buy some NPC in the guild hall

3. Give some to friends

4. Keep some to try and reach the 500K mark(at 7K now:P)

a few notes:

I've farmed for maybe a week in total(like 1.5 hours a day)
all my characters have 15K armor(5 in total, don't ask me how I did it, I don't have a clue)

sorry to hear you leave GW, it always sucks when a Guild Wars player leaves guild wars.

Firstly sorry to hear your leaving GW.

I need some gold because its hard to really farm much, but over the past 11 months ive logged over 1300 hours. Im dedicated to my guild, alliance, and just the game in general. I spend as much time as i can giving out gold to friends, as such i dont have any 15k armor. If i get this money i probably will give it to my alliance, seeing as its a give and take relationship.

I would really enjoy a second account to help my friends guild. He is quite poor, and im saving for armor on my new character. Please, itll be a real help!

GL on your choice.

Nobody "deserves" your 360k. If anybody did, they'd already have it.

I do want 360k. Hell, I'd be overjoyed and lucky if I got even 1/6 of that. I try to fund my guildies when they're low on cash, but that's about it. I don't buy shit in the market (collectors ftw), and I hoard all the materials and dye I come across, to be given out to people I see who need them. Farming has to be the most boring thing in the world, so a chance at getting some free cash? Hell yes I'll try.

I don't deserve it any more than anyone else does, but I'd like it. Even if only some of it.
