To be ganked (or gangbanged) in GW means to be attacked (and killed quite quickly) by a far superiour number of opponents (i.e. a "gang", like 5 vs. 1).

Means "gang kill." In other MMORPGs, where you have people (PCs) open to PvP vs enemy factions of other PCs, you see people ganking others by grouping up in large numbers, quickly attacking greatly outnumbered enemy groups (or single persons), and obtaining quick and easy kills vs helpless foes.

Fun to do, funny when done to you.

you'll see the term more often in GW referring to a gank of the Guild Lord. basically a team put together made to do nothing but kill the Guild Lord as quick as possible without actualy fighting the other team....
