this mean they're preparing to put kun shao back in for a bit?Hitojin 00:16, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Not exactly. See here. elix Omni 00:17, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

i heard the announcement i just didnt expect it to be this soon >.> figured since kunshoa was the xth mascot theyd bring him back Hitojin 00:32, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Kun Shao is still there... in the menagerie. His dialogue is sort of funny now. — PonyX 04:11, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

50 Points. I am owed way more than that for every account I predicted with. Way to fuck us again Anet. Drogo Boffin 04:19, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

It's better than nothing. QQ more. --Frosty 04:26, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

On the bright side, if you didn't predict at all and just had a registered name you get 50 points anyway. 173.88.136.15 04:31, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Not even a registered name is necessary. -- Dashface 04:32, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

I never had the chance to use the XTH, but isn't 50 points per account for every single account regardless of registration pretty good? Taros 04:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Half-witslings are never happy. People are always coming up short with them. Sardaukar 04:51, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Registration with Tolkano is necessary, and registration before today is not required. My mistake. Also, I used to make 55 points per account at a bare minimum, so 50 does seem kinda low to me. On a good month, I got 155-255 per account. -- Dashface 05:06, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

(Reset) I basically totally ignored the tournament house the whole time, so I'll take my ten Z-keys and be grateful for the freebie. Arshay Duskbrow 06:09, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Do we have a category for things related to "Damned if they do, Damned if they dont"? Seriously...I just expected them to remove the npc and close the webpage, and they set it up a notch and gave us 50 pts. Its been over 6 months, get over your XTH high and join a therapy group(not supplied by anet/gw wiki) for your withdrawl. Justice 06:16, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

So if someone owed you 100-200+ bucks, and they couldn't pay you back until 6 months later, and even then they could only pay 50 of it, would you just "go to therapy and get over it?". I wouldn't. I would want my damn money. All of it. personn5 06:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Actually, had that some one given me a home for the past few years, and made me happy, I'd gladly accept $50. ThrainFile:User Thrain Sig.pngcontribs 06:44, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Depends on the quality of the home. and the amount of happiness. personn5 06:48, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't matter that the walls are made of gold; what matters is that the ceiling isn't made of diamonds! ThrainFile:User Thrain Sig.pngcontribs 06:52, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Gold walls/diamond ceiling=better than a cardboard box though. personn5 06:54, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

So if someone offered to give you $100-200+ for free and had budgetary issues for 6 months, and then only gave you $50 free, would you be able to justify demanding the rest? --Kyoshi (Talk) 07:05, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Yah. If they offer something, they should keep up their offer. Not my problem their budget took a hit. personn5 07:08, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

So your not happy about the "home" but you stuck around for 6months just for pathetic points that are ingame only? WTF are you going to do with the 50pts if you dont even like the game or the company that made it? You dont have to live in gw, there are other awesome games out there as well. Justice 08:02, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

If that was addressed at me, I didn't stick around for 6 months. I'm only posting here out of boredom really personn5 08:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Go to another place then, the things you say at the moment aren't really constructive or even necessary. -- Cyan 09:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Neither is 90% of the things posted on here, but /shrug personn5 09:36, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Im verry happy that we at least get points. Tink that closes a lot of open suport tickets. mine was still open from the start. And my friend who bought GW this week is verry happy to. He never known the XTH so only win for him.Koiboysg1

Giving away free money is the best way to ruin an economy. Pulpulpullie 12:24, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

They could have given us 1000 points and it would not have mattered; there are so many zkeys floating around anyway. They keys won't devalue. The increase of rare items from the chest will only mean that they will be more affordable. And if making gold is your goal, go roll pve and ecto farm. Ronjewart

Guild Wars stimulus plan! --Link4all 17:37, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Is this a limited time offer? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 20:45, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Yes. --Kyoshi (Talk) 03:59, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

I mean is there a time limit from now until the points become unavailable for redemption? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 21:13, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

If you get the points from the guy whos giving them out they will stay in your point stowage till you use them. You dont loose skill points over time, why would you loose these? O.o --71.193.48.146 21:19, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Ok, let me rephrase... Is the NPC only giving out points for a certain period of time? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 22:04, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

No mention was made of that, but I'd imagine he'll revert to normal functionality sooner or later. -- FreedomBound 22:10, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Is the swine flu going around again? Anyway, take a look. They said February, and they appear to be on track so far. You can whine once they don't deliver, and I'll even join you. --Kyoshi (Talk) 18:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Is this really a "NERF SF!" post on the same page that says it's being nerfed? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 18:43, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

600 monk is getting hit harder than SF is. :P 75.89.65.31 19:19, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

How do you know? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 21:17, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

He/She/It doesn't, their just basing it on the fact that the page mentioned "a skill or two used in 600-Smite builds" so their assuming that its going to get hit harder. AFAIK they haven't said anything about how exactly their nerfing those skills so its going to be a mystery until they release the update --Azreal of Skyrim 10:14, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Didn't recieve any Tournament Reward Points

I didn't get any tokens after talking to High Priest Zhang :( What should I do? 212.159.118.84 15:10, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

They don't show up in your inventory. Go to the Hero Panel (H button), and switch to the last tab. ThrainFile:User Thrain Sig.pngcontribs 15:12, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Oww yeah, of course! How dumb am I? lol Thanks a lot! :) 212.159.118.84 15:16, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks ANET for the Free Keys

With my 22 accounts, I got 220 free keys. Thanks ANET! --65.0.129.175 19:12, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Obvious account thief is obviously an account thief --71.193.48.146 21:06, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Wtf could you possibly need 22 accounts for? Ronjewart

Uh, 220 free Zaishen keys. Seriously, though, he was probably using them to farm the XTH before it closed down. Quite a few people did that. -- FreedomBound 23:33, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

How did you get 22 accounts? >_> 151.213.178.99 06:59, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

All you need is 1 campaign to cast votes on XTH, so people would pick up cheap ones from friends/ebay. Back in the beginning it was actually pretty profitable, since you could turn around and sell stacks of zkeys for irl money, but guild wars is dead, so they aren't worth jack now. -Auron 07:02, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

o0 That's... stupid. >_> 151.213.178.99 07:06, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Yeah... quick and easy money from playing a game is stupid...

By the way, what do you get paid for doing? Cleaning toilets? That's such a better source of income. A F K When Needed 17:01, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm just against using a game, someone elses hard work, to make money. It's no better than gold farming. 151.213.178.99 20:44, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

If you would rather clean toilets or flip burgers than chill in your own space and farm for cash to sell then be my guest. Its quite obvious which of the two is smarter. Btw what part of "Obvious account theif is obvious" did you not get (to above posts asking stupid questions)? --71.193.48.146 20:47, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

F♥♥king thank you anet

for free zkeys--99.243.161.169 19:09, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

What's up with all the free keys?

I had enough points to buy my Ele AND Monk full Obsidian sets and, each, VS+Tormy Shield sets! DarkNe7h 20:51, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

From ten keys? lolwut? --71.193.48.146 20:53, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

lulz not exactly. i had been saving and i only needed 30 more reward points. DarkNe7h 22:00, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

dear shitters

if they gave everyone the number of TRPs they "deserved" from that month, the sudden influx of zkeys would fuck the price of zkeys for awhile and you'd all be here complaining how anet ruined the economy. so stfu, would you kindly. MAFARAXAS 03:27, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

...you realize that makes no sense, don't you? 75.89.65.31 14:58, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Which economy? GW has none worth mentioning. Koda Kumi 15:03, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

WTH are you talking about? The amount of TRPs would have to be astronomical to change the economy. Say you win the MTS 5 times at once, and your team puts the TRP's in a "pot". That's 7200 keys total and STILL not enough to change the economy. DarkNe7h 15:16, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

TODAYS THE DAY!

todays the day they're supposed to end invulnerability! (supposedly...) Its a good thing this isn't a first person shooter, cuz theres this horrible glitch in every fps game where camping causes invulnerability... its CRAZY! If GW had that problem, I think ANET would just quit... 76.202.226.162 21:22, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

lolwut? 75.89.65.31 22:09, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

u didnt know that? Why else would all the noobs do it? 76.202.226.162 00:10, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Camping doesn't cause invulnerability, just overpoweredness because you can react faster than those respawning. Some games even kill people who spawn camp though, namely TC:E. --Kyoshi (Talk) 00:21, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Halo has a set-activated-bomb option. If you stand in one spot to long you Suicide and loose a point. (assuming your playing slayer) --Briar Flame Me 00:24, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Halo also has this function that when you put it in your Xbox or Pc and play it, its the worste fps ever made. Drogo Boffin 00:30, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

I made a topic like this about today and wynthyst deleted it as "trolling/baiting". Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 00:44, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

It's getting later into the day now... wouldn't surprise me if they don't actually do it... "We ... eh... we ran out of toner." 118.92.189.156 00:48, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

They've been releasing their updates late in the evening for over a year now, I believe. They release it, then immediately leave the office and go out drinking. That way they don't have to work on fixing all the bugs until Friday- except no one likes to work on Fridays, so they don't work on fixing the bugs until Monday. Except everyone got swine flu, so maybe the following Monday. But wait, GW2. Maybe in June. elix Omni 00:52, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Let's make a Steam-time chart except for NCSoft/Anet and hide it somewhere so Wynthyst doesn't delete it as trolling/baiting Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 01:25, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

I thought only Sysop's can delete stuff? --Briar Flame Me 01:28, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Anyone can delete anything...you just gotta be imba 76.202.226.162 01:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Isn't she a sysop? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 02:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

I would have rid the wiki of this topic too, had I seen it earlier. If you have comments on today's update go to Feedback talk:Game updates/20100225. Creating topics to stir up drama is trolling. -- Wyn talk 02:41, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

For the record, drama/trolling/baiting wasn't my intent. I'm not arguing the fact that you deleted it. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 05:55, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
