First post on my talk page
Can anyone create a personal page, or is it for admins only?

Thanks, it just seemed like only the top contributors and admins have them. Not that anyone will ever look at my page, but maybe I can prepare a resume of sorts.

An interesting idea.
A lot of people have said that rapiers would be a great addition to GW. Unfortunately, it most likely won't be implemented in this game, and only possibly in GW2. I think they have to do something to boost Mesmer's popularity, since (even though they are a GREAT class) everyone hates them, and for that reason I fear that they won't make it in GW2. They need something to make them a more desirable class, and rapiers would be awesome. Personally, I think that every class needs some sort of melee option, even if it isn't really effective--in real life, if you were holding a staff, wouldn't you opt to bash an incoming enemy in the face instead of using a fairly useless magical burst? (Even just for the sake of appearances) Or as a Necro, you have quite a few offhand options, namely the knife and the glove Cesta. And even Chakrams for Mesmers. To tell the truth, I had hoped that EOTN would introduce a caster-only "kick" attack that would help them when they were surrounded by a mob full of warriors and assassins. It didn't work out the way I had hoped it would. With any luck, this sort of thing will be addressed in GW2. Silver40596 18:31, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Question About Stubs.
According to the definition provided on Wikipedia, a stub is "an article containing only a few sentences of text which is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject, but not so short as to provide no useful information." Whereas in the real world there is a near limitless amount of information that can be given about one subject, in the world of Guild Wars, some topics have only a few things that can be said about them. For example, the page for Garrisons is a stub, but it contains all the information on Garrisons that currently exists! The same goes with Imba--how much more could you possibly say about imbalancing stuff? In other words, many articles here contain ALL of the information the developers have released to us, and yet they will NEVER be long enough to qualify as encyclopedic articles. I may be missing something obvious since I mostly read wiki pages and don't edit them much, but I feel that this is a problem. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that GuildWiki needs to change its policy on stubs. Silver40596 15:51, 29 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I suppose you suggest unstubbing on the talk, or something. Or just unstub yaself, if you feel it is nessecary. IDK if that is allowed, though... --[[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (s)talkpage 15:55, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Can anyone, maybe an administrator, answer this definitively? I've been playing 2.5 years and I have a pretty good idea of how extensive a page's information is. Silver40596
