I would love if this news revived interest in the game, and ANET updates it more. I think it's better to have both games running, getting updates and making money.
And maybe even add more inter-connectivity between both games like cross game guild, or at least more stuff to unlock.
Still, $40 for a complete edition of one of the best games ever made is a great deal.

Monks in GW1 were awesome. protection prayers ftw. besides energy system in GW1 was one of the best resouirce management systems in any mmo imo.

From my understanding they already have a small team something like 2 people keeping the game up and running. I think Anet is looking to put f2p resources into it.
Id rather they make an actual sequel to GW1, not that game called GW2 that is nothing like GW1.
This isn't a signature, you just think it is.
I mained a Cripshot build in Alliance Battles before it was cool.
I played a lot of Trapper in Alliance Battles as well.
Spreading condis with Burning Arrow and Poison Arrows was fun as well.
And my favorite build was a custom-made R/A build which would apply Augury of Death then burst the foe with my pet for a huge solo-burst combo that would surprise kill just about everyone I came across.
Unfortunately, I can't really play it anymore because I've played through it all and there's not much left to do. All that's left is vanquishing and Eye of the North hard mode dungeons, neither of which are particularly fun. I had legendary guardian on a character of each class--and without ever using the stupidly overpowered PVE-only skills that Eye of the North added.

What I was trying to elude to in my post (I probably didnt articulate it well enough) was that each version of a game/series should be able to exist long the other. Like if an expansion comes out, have the new expansion servers and some old ones. Of course people will argue that it would cost too much, but honestly, it would not especially with how the actual quality of mmorpgs has either gone down or stayed the same over the years. One can argue that visually, they have gotten better but visuals are one of the cheapest parts of any game and are usually contracted out. Alas, we live in a world and time where easy money is too stupid to pass up, which is why we are in this BR mode trend now and why we have heavy catch up mechanics on the first day of raids, with rewards being handed to people that dont have the skill level to match, because publishers seem to think that keeps people around....
