Once again I want to thank everyone for their input. It all helped to make up my mind for me. :) Stay safe all!

Thanks folks. I really appreciate the feedback. Enough said that I am going ahead with buying it. WoW has pretty much lost my attention for some time (as a second choice game). Eq2 I stopped playing about a year or so ago. Not because I didn't enjoy the game, more because I always felt it played more like a non-internet console game. Hard to explain. LoTRo is still a great game but GW2 still ranks much higher for me. GW sounds as though it will be a better choice for this old fart. :) Thanks again.

Thanks. Time is no real consideration at my age. It's pretty much all I have. :)

Hi all and sorry if this is beyond the scope of this forum. I've been thinking of getting Guild Wars as it is such a small investment. I've only been playing GW2 for about 9 months, but I also play for an obscene number of hours each day (old, long retired, and have played online games from when they were text based and on BBS'), so I was wondering if you, the game veterans, think I would be missing out on a lot of quality gaming if I simply passed over Guild Wars? Anyway, I apologize in advance for an unusual question. If it's not appropriate for this forum, feel free to delete it. Thanks

You are absolutely correct. Thanks.I'll get a handle on things eventually. It's all good anyway. Love the game already.

Thanks and I apologize for my lack of game savvy. I did realize after more time in the area that I was just not observing the environment very close. What was happening was a cloud of poison, which was being emitted from one of the huge plants that spawn during a battle. I wasn't able to get out of the immediate area in time. Again, my newby-ness. :) You are correct though, about the lower levels being a good idea. I can already tell that this is a game I will be staying with for years (if I live that long. I'm old with lots of health issues. ;) to come. Thanks for the reply. :)

I've tried asking this in /MAP chat, but no response. I've only been playing GW2 for a few days so I'm still quite uninformed. I just tried using the 80 boost on my necromancer to see how he does at high level and encountered a very frustrating/confusing issue. The combat chat window displays the message, You poison yourself for 1900 using [Noxious Fumes], that repeats over and over until I die and it says it can't be removed. How and why is this happening? I know I must be doing something very wrong but I have no idea what that might be. Can anyone help me with this problem?
