Agreed, and thank you for having some sense.. It's a lame thing to do, but isn't the sort of thing to get too worked up over.

So what exactly should people spend their money on then as you are the expert in these things?

Answer : what THEY want to....the latest weapons are no better than numerous others you can get, all the armour is the same.... so theres nothing "better" to spend the ectos etc on...

Oh and on topic, yes it is disgusting that certain players get the benefits like this, did they pay extra for the game? NO. It has also happened with new titles being leaked to certain people first, but of course, its swept under the carpet too. /disgust

Report it to NC-Soft ( NOT A-NET) and if possible submit names and Guild so they know what Dev's are involved in it.

It is well over due that something is done about the way some Dev's missuse the powers they have.

This is what is posted on the Guild Wars site when they announced the The Guild Wars Third Anniversary Celebration. I took this to mean that no matter when the char. was created (before the 28th) you waited until the 28th to receive it.

Monday, April 28
Starting at 12:01 AM Pacific, third year miniatures will become available. (Remember that birthday gifts are given all year round, so you will receive your gift on the personal birthday (creation date) of each character on your account.)

Target person you want to give minipet or present to.

/createitem <minipet ID number or third year gift ID>

People are pretty naive if they do not believe GMs have commands on a live server.

it sure is. just like the focus that went up in high end, was nerfed, and the kid got the shaft. remember that? I do. and guess what guild he was a member of. it got nerfed because the kid called attention to it, right? because it was game breaking, right?

Either ANet forgot that there are characters created before April 28, 2005, or Regina is full of shit.

Personally, I think it's the latter.

I don't understand why someone in a guild with Andrew Patrick would receive special perks like this. If Andrew himself had the mini pet, I'd understand. He's an ANet employee. But when a normal player like everyone on this forum gets a perk like this, it's just dumb. What makes him more special than anyone else? That's all I want to know. I could care less that he got an item before ANet stated they were to be released, I just want to know why he's more special than anyone else.

I'd also like Andre Patrick to answer the question, but I heard he doesn't want to address this issue. Meh, nothing new with that.

Well one of your guildies seems to be spilling a lot of good stuff to MMSDome in-game according to IRC.

Edit: Read above post. The plot thickens?

Oh geez. If this is some conspiracy like some of you are claiming it to be, if some GM is so willing to just poof up a minipet, why would a GM break the rules for something so trivial as just creating a minipet a couple of days earlier? Why risk the wrath of an angry crazed mob for something so small?
