I started writing about MMORPG's a couple of years ago (on another website, hopefully now buried in the mists of time). Like a lot of people I went through an exciting brainstorming phase where I proposed all sorts of crazy ideas to try and improve the MMO genre. Looking back now, some of it was good. Some of it was ok. A lot of it was short-sighted drivel.
While I have come to accept that I may not, in fact, be about to sigle-handedly revolutionize the entire genre, there's one thing that I can tell from this experience. ArenaNet is a lot better at it than anybody else has ever been.
The revolution is here my friends. Game on, Blizzard. Game on.

thanks for the link Melf ;)
I'm definitely in ArenaNet's corner on this one. Here's hoping they can pull it off and not just promise unicorns, only to crash and burn.
More goodness from the ArenaNet team:

Awesome! Thanks Tesh.
There must be a lot of work go into designing these dynamic events. I can't wait to try some of them out!
All I can say is that "We'll see". Warhammer was supposed to be OMGAWESOME, and basically sucked.
I'll check GW2 out, but I won't play it just because it isn't WoW. If it's good, though, then hell yeah sign me up.
