Hi everyone! I'm 24 and live in Boston with my boyfriend and 2 fat kitties. Went to college for art stuffs and now I manage a custom framing shop (sharp objects ftw). I'm also a long time gamer and love reading. I'm a very laid back and friendly person, so I'm very excited to be with a similar group of people! I've been waiting for GW2 since they mentioned it 'may be released in 2009' ... then 'maybe 2010'... then 'maybe 2011' The dirty teases! Anyhow it's almost here! See you all in game

didn't have an apple IIe, but i had a Lazer 128 which was apple compatible. Played ZORK, Oregon trail, treasure island, family feud. Ah the good ole days of selecting a dish and inserting it then booting the computer off of that and halfway through the game having to turn the disk over.

Hello. I'm 31 and currently live in Miami, fl. Use to be in the military usmc, but once I left I decided to go back to school after sometime finding my way. Now I'm studying computer animation and having a blast doing it. Lots to learn. I'm very chill, and very little gets under my skin. I'm the type of person that can have fun doing mostly anything as long as the company is good. I broke into gaming back with the Atari and been hook ever since. MMO's have a sort of love&hate attraction for me. Like the idea behind them but hate the finish products so far. That hasn't stop me from trying to enjoy a few. GW2 seems like the "ONE", but that's what I though about my last girlfriend to

Hi everyone! My name is Kari and I am 31. I have worked in banking for 13 years and am a Loan Operations Specialist. I have been married to a wonderful man for 10 years and we have a beautiful daughter. She just started 1st grade and will be 6 next month.
I really got my start in gaming on the SNES. My husband introduced me to the world of MMOs with WoW being my first venture then moved on to SWTOR. I quickly got sucked in and never turned back. I am very excited about GW2 and can't wait for Satuday.

Ah the good ole days of selecting a dish and inserting it then booting the computer off of that and halfway through the game having to turn the disk over. Hey Morgwath, I vividly remember those days of having to flip those 5.25 inch disks in the middle of a game. This was especially painful when playing games like Ultima IV, which had a very large gameworld for its time.

Hey everyone, found my way here via TheToe over at Hardforums.
I am 36 and another Floridian who has been gaming since the Atari and Intellivision days. I did some raiding back in my WoW days pre-BC, but nothing serious. These days I am just looking for a relaxed group of like minded gamers.
I look forward to playing with you all.

Howdy gang. My name is Tom. 28 years old. Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago. Made Eagle Scout in high school. Joined the Marines out of high school to be a satellite radio tech. Was stationed in Southern California those 5 years. Moved back to Illinois. After a few years realized how boring Illinois was and just moved back here to Southern California a few months ago. I've also been in IT my entire career and just got a job as a Network Systems Administrator a few months ago. Been playing video games my whole life. Became a die hard playstation groupie and have played every Final Fantasy since they came to Sony. Played World of Warcraft on and off for years, have played Guild Wars 1, Diablo 3, and now this which has been exceedingly fun so far. See you all in game!

Hiya! I'm Maury, am 31, and live in North Carolina. I was born in PA, lived in Santa Claus, IN for a few years, and spent most of my time in Cincinnati, OH. Went to art school at Bowling Green State Univ in northern Ohio, and moved out to NC after graduating in 2003 to make video games. I grew up playing the violin, singing in a metal band, and making art for Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament, which lead me to where I am today. I love games and gaming, play all sorts of games from the PSP, to Xbox 360, to PC, to the iPhone. Will play most games for a bit, to see what they're about, but a few really have latched onto me that I love. I'm a complete Metal Gear fanboy, Monster Hunter fanatic, love Diablo, Warcraft, Starcraft, Final Fantasy, and SSX, to name a few! Will gladly go into more games anytime with anyone I played World of Warcraft pretty religiously, and was wayyyyy too into that game for a good 5 years. I've backed off my intense gaming addictions a bit, but still have to find time to dive into some great games with people. Loving Guild Wars 2 so far, definitely have my fair share of things I don't like about it, but I'm giving it a chance! I love doing group events with people, dungeons, pvp, tool'in around, whatver. Don't hesitate to hit me up! see ya in game!

My name is Tiffany, and I'm a few weeks shy of 28. I've spent most of my life in the Washington, DC metro area (currently residing on the Virginia side). I'm single with no kids, but I do have a fantastic dog. My father was a computer programmer, so I got a head-start into the wonderful world of geekdom. I've been playing MMOs in particular for about 14 years. I've already mentioned it to some of you in guild chat, but I'm deaf, so you won't see me in vent. I can hold my own in guild chat though, fear not.

Hey everybody. Joined about a week ago and I've already joined some of you online and in the Vent chat for AC runs and general shenanigans.
Name is Aerthos (AIR-thos), or Aer for short. I'm online frequently, and there is at least a 50% chance that if you see the handle Aerthos or LordAerthos somewhere you found me. I'm from Wisconsin, and I enjoy music and long walks on the beach.
Currently representing with a guardian who will support as needed and eventually craft gear for the guild.
