Hey, so I finally made it to Guild Wars 2. Don't have Heart of Thorns yet, but will be picking it up eventually (I have no shortage of things to do in the core game, having a blast so far).
Had some difficulty getting my GW2 code added to my existing account, but ANet was able to do it manually. In the process I was automatically assigned the Display Name F822EFE4-8A38-4315-B2CA-C8CA906A9D9E and Home World of Anvil Rock. (I have a standing offer from them to change my name to something human-readable, but they recommend against it because I "may experience broken guild lists, broken guild rosters, inability to chat, broken friend/block/social lists, and having both the old and new display name visible to users alternate intermittently." And I understand Home World really only matters for WvWvW these days.)
Wouldn't mind an invite if the guild is still around, or just a hello if any of you hop online. I scrounged through this forum and added everyone I could find, but it seems you've all moved on by now, which honestly doesn't surprise me.
