Yes, a game without a monthly fee will be as bad as Guild Wars is.

Do you feel like playing a game with absolutely no updates/patches/anything whatsoever?

Why are you reading this? This is crap compared to what's above.

It would be great if servers became extremely cheap to run.  Even then you would still have PtP but it sure would be cheaper :).  I remember UO and how cheap that was... the good ol' days.

firstly, guild wars isnt even a MMORPG and I have no clue why its even supported on this site.

 

secondly.. yes I have no problem paying for games as long as they dont raise payments to get more profit over all the overhead costs so im paying 30 a month...

Yes. Without fee's, your chances of second rate service and all kinds of riff raff in the community raise 10 fold.
