No, I have no idea what's going on right now. DNS, network problems... something of that nature. It's not the server though so, Rejoice! If it goes down again though, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm aware and working with the server admin.

In the meantime, if you'd still like to chat you are more then welcome to drop by the IRC room:

For those wishing to participate in real-time discussions with other Guild Wars fans and Guru visitors, our chat is the place to be at. To access it, you must have an IRC client like mIRC installed. Here is our server/channel information:

Server: irc.gamesurge.net
Channel: #guildwarsguru

If you do not have an IRC client available, there is a nice little Java version available at http://www.gamesurge.net/chat/ that you may find helpful. All you do is start up the script, enter your forum name in the field "Change nick to", and enter "/j #guildwarsguru" in the text field.
Thanks!

I dont think he is refering to the lagging, maybe refering to the fact for about a week now pages will randomly not load.

Great post - let's blame it on "faction nubs". Seriously, if you don't have anything good to say...

'Factions Nubs' may have opinions that are every bit as valid and well presented as more seasoned players.
My only problem with he site is the appalling search function, it's all great apart from that- it's well moderated, has a good community and great presentation.

I'm slightly sure that Malice is being sarcastic, although I could be wrong. :\

Always use sarcasm tags ([sarasm][/sarcasm] or <sarcasm></sarcasm>), otherwise, it's generally assumed that you are dead serious.

lol. So basically, Guru's completely screwed when Ch3 comes out, since there will be even more "nubs" then. In my opinion, the site would run a lot better without certain people postwhoring and posting useless BS just to hear themselves type. Neither age nor postcount mean anything, so let's just post when we have something worthwhile to add, eh? Otherwise, it's just more stress on the already overburdened Guru staff. Besides, bitching about people's bitching won't stop any of the bitching.

Btw - pre-Factions, search was down often. Not as often, no, but still, things weren't always "fine" like you describe.
