First of all my wife and I like to thank you for developing Guild Wars. Its such an awesome game! We love the instance areas, the henchmen and best of all the no weekly maintenance down time. Unfortunately, we like many others out there have developed a terrible addiction mainly brought on by World of Warcraft i.e. Gnomes. For whatever reason we, like many others, love Gnomes. We need our Gnome fix! There are so many reasons we like Guild Wars more than World of Warcraft, but we find ourselves wanting to return only for the sake of playing a Gnome. We in no way enjoy World of Warcraft better, its time consuming, stressful, more like a job than a game, and it runs horribly on our PC's unlike Guild Wars. Could you please help us and all those other gnome addicted people out there by creating a cute little gnome race that is playable in Guild Wars. We appreciate your time and consideration.

Thank you,
John and Kim

They have gnomes already. However they look like a garden gnome and if you become surrounded by them, they explode

, setting you on fire *ouch!*

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?

There is only one playable race in Guild Wars. If anything, they should put gnomes in, and give every player a "stomp" ability, so you can step on and flatten the little bastards. Gnomes are for losers. So are playable races.

Uh, probably dont have to point out that GW isn't WoW and blah blah if you like WoW etc before everyone else gets in with all that stuff :P

While you are suggesting transplanting material from other rpg's, I want chocobo's from FF in it too, damn the legal ramifications and gamebreaking it might cause! =P

Ooooo I just love reasonable, well thought out posts. "Gnomes are for losers." The sheer brilliance of that declarative statement. Why, it is irrefutable! How can anyone argue against such logic?

LOL

Ain't it the truth tho?

DarrenJasper · Jun 19, 2005, 08:51 PM // 20:51

Yeah, it is. Guess what? Of all the parts of WoW that looked like Saturday morning cartoons, gnomes were the cartooniest. Huge, disproportioned heads that bobbled back and forth. Any attempt you were making at taking the game seriously would be utterly ruined as soon as one of these little niblets scurried across the screen.

Addicted to gnomes? Give me a break. Next time you leave for WoW, please stay.

Gnomes just wouldn't fit in. It's not that "gnomes are gay" or whatever, it's simply that they would seem utterly rediculous in guild wars

If you were one of the many participents in the BWEs, you'd know that the final one was ended in part with gnomes raining from the sky. Know your facts before flaming.

Utterly rediculous? The exploding ones were utterly dangerous!

I like Gnomes. They're cute, and the fact that they're uncool makes me like them even more.

Races seem to be the biggest gripe about Guild Wars. Personally, I couldn't care less. If they do add races though, I would so play as a Gnome.

Massassi · Jun 20, 2005, 02:51 AM // 02:51

There is nothing wrong with gnomes aslong as they are applid tastfully with a well thought out story. Infact there is nothing wrong with any of the skills/professions/races ever suggested aslong as they are well thought out and applied tastfully.

Naw Get Dragonlance Gnomes. Ultimate tinkers, i mean over the top. They made a popcorn popper that was basically used as a cannon by some dark knights. Very few gnomish inventions work how thier supposed to and fail in usually spectaclar sometimes devestating and explosive ways. ohandtheytalkveryveryfastandgointogreatdetailtoohe avenforbidyouaskonehisnamewithoutspecifingwhathuma nscallhimfirstyou'llbethereforafewdaysnowthosearec oolgnomes
