What a crazy idea. But you knew that didn't you?

It's easy enough to make money.

Do we really need to make it easier?

I mean, really?

Here's a better idea: Just keep the game as it is and fill everyone's chest with money and materials. Yep, still a crap idea, but better than screwing up the game just so you can form more easily.

This is EXACTLY the reason about the nerf. The abuse of farming. THANKS REGINA.

There are some skills i'd like to see unnerfed but....well lets face it they got shot with the nerf gun for a reason. Maybe one day where everyone could just screw around...but a whole month? that's fail sorry.

If it's for a weekend or a month, the amount of work needed to revert everything, one item at a time, is absolutely staggering. There are many good reasons why it's not going to happen, but this one is all you really need.

Too much work. Not going to happen.

Not true, they could simply do a server rollback to 2005 (assuming the data still exists). That would be about as useful, logical, and enjoyable as the suggestion in this thread.

In case you missed the sarcasm in the post you quoted, my suggestion was not a serious one.

Of course your point is correct; it would be ridiculous to revert any or all the changes and then switch them back.

People... disagreeing with you and saying the idea is bad isn't not clean. Maybe this idea really is just bad.

Its incredibly imbalanced. Would take a huge amount of time. Wouldn't even really make sense (several skills have gone through several nerfs and buffs and redesigns... which unnerfed version of the skill do you pick for this month when the skill has been changed 10 times). It appeals to the lowest type of gamer (those who want overpowered stuff and don't recognize the need for balanced gameplay), devalue accomplishments, screw up the economy, people who missed the week/month whatever would whine ("I was at my grandma's.... I want to use Ursan AGAIN!"), reintroduce bugs (shadow walk/dark aura... Signet of Spirits instantly killing anybody), would probablly drive AWAY just as many people as it would bring back to the game, would be incredibly confusing for new/causal players, would set a precedent where people would expect these kinds of weekends in the future, would drive away sales from GW2 from players who don't like this without actually attracting any new players, lead to new gimmick cookie cutter builds to farm, and after a few days of this bad players who couldn't beat stuff with 3 overpowered PvE skills already after this change would STILL complain that this game needs to be dumbed down even more because its too hard for them. Bad players would still be terrible and fail missions/dungeons. Good players would still exploit and dominate... just faster.

And those are just the reasons I can think off the top of my head for why this is a bad idea.

Things are nerfed for a reason. Do I really need to add any more reasons to explain why this is a bad idea?

Saber is only giving an idea, obviously some people enjoy farming, and taking this away from them, leads them to QQing.

I for one am against the idea.

1.This will take far too much effort, Reverting back to 2005, then back to 2009.

2.Back to the old glitchy/bugged (did i miss anything) guild wars.

3.I think this would provoke players to leave.. not come back, the economy is already messed up as it is, one full month will be grinded to the max, ectos would be at 3k/ea :P

/notsigned.

Hope this will fill ya in with why ppl aren't agreeing with it

While I'd love to have the minion factory back, this idea not only targets the skills that were nerfed but the ones that were buffed. Rerolling 4 years of effort put into the game so you can plain farm again isn't a valid reason.

Please stop suggesting 'going back' stuff.

You can't walk forward if you go back.
