Anet still loves you...

Party Search — A brand new Party Search panel will be added to Guild Wars this December, which will allow players to more easily form groups. Casual and hard-core gamers alike will benefit from this new system, as it will make it easier for players to form parties for some of the tougher quests and missions in the game, find the last cog needed for a fearsome group that can tear through the PvP arenas, or just connect with old friends online to go explore the diverse Guild Wars world.
Reconnect After Disconnect — One of the most player-requested features comes to Guild Wars! If a player gets dropped from the game due to a connection problem, and that player can reconnect within ten minutes, the player's character will be relocated to the spot of disconnection. If the character was performing an action, such as casting a spell or auto-attacking a target, that character will complete the action as if still connected. If a player is in a group when disconnected, the other members of the party will be notified about the player's connection problems.

Discuss! (With PVE carebears absent)
or possibly: Lock!
My thoughts: Thanks ANet, now get to skill balancing (I know you are). It'll be interested to see if the first feature improves HA at all, and it'll be nice to know the second feature is going to prevent tanked ratings and cheap losses from someone erroring out---and it seems to safeguard against possible abuses, since according to Alex Weekes your character effectively goes 'afk'.

Great improvement, and almost as important, a good sign they are listening. These two features have been at the top of many people's wish lists for months and anet finally delivers. Very gg.

I just hope reconnects affect when people err 7 instantaneously when going into the match, where they never get to even load the map. Those are the most painful kind IMO, and seem to not have anything to do with a lagging connection (from what I can tell). Great news in any case.

Well, these additions are a step in the right direction but kind of late imo. Still, gg, Anet. Now we just need an auction house and Anet to get a clue about tombs.

Stop bitching about how late it is and what we are still lacking. Be happy they did something good for once. (As in, be happy for once, not that they did something good for once)
