That's ENTIRELY FALSE.
Level 20 just means you max out your health points and power but you still can develop new skills/spells, change up and refine your class, develop new skill combos etc.

The Level 20 cap DOESN'T mean you stop advancing. Level 20 is just where your character becomes mature - because there's a lot to develop after that. Most folks reach level 20 way before the campaign is over. I never heard of anyone quitting just because they reached level 20 - because by then they realize that level 20 is just the beginning.

The cap is just a way of keeping the game from being dominated by folks with 2 million health points and deliver 20,000 in damage with each blow. In Guild Wars a good player is one who is insightful and experienced enough to assemble an effective build and skillful enough to put it into action .... not just someone with bigger numbers. I prefer the game with that cap.
