Not sure if it had been said but Guildwars is not NCSoft's only game. it has a number of other Online games that are making money. if NCSoft were to go out of bisuness, all there games would have to be doing very bad and i doubt that will happen.
They should not charge monthly fees. As many others have said before me in this thread, they will make money on x-packs. Charging monthly fees would screw up one of thier major features.
As of yet I have to experience any major downtime issues, lag, or bugs. Other MMOs you pay for have more serious issues with this than GW *cough* WoW *cough* MxO *cough*.
The downtime consists of a message poping up saying something like "A new build of Guild Wars is available, please exit and restart." in between missions. The whole thing takes under two minutes on my computer. If that is not the pinnacle of server up-time in an MMO, I guess I don't know what is.
