To the entire Guru community:

It's with a heavy heart that I must inform you that this site, Guild Wars Guru, will be shutting down on July 1st and will remain in Archive Mode. Over the past 11 years, we've become, and continued to remain, the #1 fansite for Guild Wars, and it's all because to you guys. Without such a strong and passionate community, Guru would have never made it this far and so we thank you for that.

And while we will be saying good-bye to our home here, we will continue to host forums for the GW community over at our sister site, Guild Wars 2 Guru. In fact, you are more than welcome to head on over now and begin posting. If you have any threads you'd like to transfer over, now would be the time.

So once again thank you, and especially those that contributed their time and knowledge to make Guru the amazing place it was. We'll see you over at Guild Wars 2 Guru!

generik Desert Nomad Join Date: Jun 2005	A suggestion for the -password option For those guru members not in the know, guild wars supports some command line parameters, one of which is the -password option. Currently if you specify the password through -password=xxxx the game will automatically attempt to use that specified password and attempt to log in to the previously logged in account. The idea is fine and good, but: 1) Say you are paranoid and don't save your email address 2) You currently can't specify your email address (can understand why this is so, potential risk!) 3) You have multiple accounts Then the option becomes more of a hinderance than anything else. So I propose that instead of the client automatically hitting to "login" button when the -password parameter is included, have another -autologin parameter for those that need it, and include the option to have the client basically start as normal, with the password pre-filled in, so the user is able to change the email and/or password as necessary.
