Player Polls -- as of 23 March 2007

The Guild Wars Development Team has a well-deserved reputation for listening to players. Many of your ideas have been incorporated into the game; we are grateful for your suggestions, both large and small! You are probably aware that many of us on the team visit the Guild Wars Wiki and a large number of the Guild Wars fansites on a daily basis. It helps us stay in touch; it keeps us keenly aware of what you'd like to see, and of any issues that you've been experiencing.

Often, we include player polls on our fansite forums to invite those who play our game to share their thoughts about various aspects of Guild Wars. You can usually spot these polls by their [Dev Poll] tag in the subject line, and often fansite operators are kind enough to "sticky" the posts to make them a bit more visible, allowing everyone a chance to participate.

Here is the list of polls we are currently tracking. We will keep this list updated as we add more or change focus to a different topic. This will help us formulate ideas for the future, so jump in there!

• Weekend Events -- We want to hear your thoughts about the many weekend events that we have offered over the last many months.
• Second Birthday Ideas -- While not strictly speaking a "poll," these threads are designed to gather your own ideas about how Guild Wars might reward players when a character reaches his or her second birthday.
