I never heard of that... how do you know this to be a fact?

It's quite alarming if it's true, I've only been adding enough titles etc to fill the displays... I have a lot more I could add but I prefer to avoid The Re-arranging Game. It would be nasty if I failed to add them in time. Mind you, I'm hoping that simply having full displays will unlock all the "benefits" in GW2... and if that were the case, it wouldn't matter whether I added my extra titles or not.

Anyway, why would they remove one of the incentives for people still playing GW1, to buy EotN and GW2? Or does this "lock" actually mean that once you "hit the switch" to transfer benefits to your GW2 character, you can't keep adding more titles and getting more benefits? Rather than simply closing the HoM to all players?

ok....wow people seriously whats the reasoning behind starting a NEW, if entities such as titles are carried over to the the second guild wars. I honestly refute the idea of conveying anything. YES i have a considerable amount of SIGNIFICANT titles and NO im not expecting to get anything in return from them in the near or distant future. I feel that the titles we earn are for the here and now as opposed to long term investments for 2ndary game releases. USUALLY your EXPERIENCE of the first game should aid you enough for anything secondary.

Wipeing the slate completely clean is what id like to see happen, alternatively gw2 will create the traditional prejudice campaign of whos ranked....whos this whos that. And i just think thats rediculously unfair for the newcomers of the game, and or for those of us who dont like to spend the majority of our day playing guildwars..............No further comments.

Right now Im wishing theyd allowed you to move a tapestry if nothing was placed in that section, as Ive wasted 2 tapestries on the armor and weapons, because I thought it would accept gold ones. Then I heard someone ask about it in general chat in town, checked Wiki, and find out that they only accept Destroyer weapons and 15k armor, neither of wich I have any interest in, as theyre both insanely expensive, with no benefits I care about. I have 8 level 20 characters, 2 more on the way, and 1 set of 15k is enough to give all of them a full set of max armor, so Ill pass. The Detroyer weapons, for me, also cost too much, in money and materials, to be justifiable, so now I have to get to questing, and get two more tapestries for my heroes(maybe they'll get an AI upgrade), and it'll also give me an excuse to finally open my minis, to see what I got.
