...or you could do a Whois lookup
While the record for GuildWarsUtopia is not the same as GuildWars or GuildWarsFactions, it is consistant with GuildWarsNightfall.
At first, I thought I was following a bad lead. Going to
www.guildwarsutopia.com leads to a site that advertises things related to "Sex" and "Dungeons & Dragons Online". Why would NCsoft / ArenaNet do something like that?
My guess - they didn't expect us to find the site. The ads seem to be listed automatically, based on words in the domain name. It's just a placeholder page. Plus, I'm thinking the founders got tired of registering domain names. HA! (Don't forget about this annual expense -
http://www.triforge.com.) If Guild Wars does release 10 Chapters, and registers at least three domains for each chapter, that's 30 domain names a year. At $15 per domain name, that's $450 per year. I suppose that's not a lot of money, but it does add up. Why spend that money when Mom and Pop NCsoft can do it for you?
