I've always wanted and hoped a contest like that, for many years.
But the contest winning skill:

-should be selected by a players vote from a small selection of entries chosen by Anet. Just one new skill per contest.

-skill must be PvE only. PvP doesn't need more.

-skill must be properely balanced by Anet devs before adding to game - players would probably create and vote for imba.

No more skills ! Unless of course it is to buff even more PvE skills for the lulz. But seriously balance the skills we have before adding even more

No, Guild Wars doesn't need new skills.

If anything, we should be able to vote for skills to be removed from the game entirely.

If you promise to add skills in a way that all professions get the same number of skills (or at least add skill to prophecies so all 6 core professions get the same number of skills), I'll agree with this.

Just more skills won't do nothing good, but having all professions with the same number eases balance. Why? The 'flipa coin' thing. When all sides have same stuff, balance it's easier.

It feels like there are already too many skills in this game.

I honestly think that at most they should adapt some of the less used ones to make them more viable. If we allowed players to create a skill it would probably either never see the light of day or be another overpowered pve skill

The power creep is bad enough as it is, otherwise hell why not let Areanet introduce monster skill signets of capture for 100k each at skills traders? That would be fun right?....
