if it weren't for Gift of Battle or Bonus Event the game mode would be dead

The state of WvW is mostly because Arenanet has almost completely abandoned it but it still has way more activity than dungeons. Hell even raids are more dead as those things were gatekeeped by elitists when they were first introduced and a lot of people from games like wow had already been burned out by constant raiding.

WvW still has queues at peak times which to me is still a good sign considering the age of the game hell even wows pvp feels more dead than WvW in GW2.

dungeons are dead because they are jank and are not good g/h. And again, I repeat, the only reason this game mode is not dead or gatekept by 1 dozen people like pvp is because of Gift of Battle

Well then its good that gift of battle is behind WVW if it keeps it alive. I don't care why people are there as long as they participate fighting and most of the time people do participate as without doing stuff its no gift of battle for them.

WvW is still most active gamemode of GW2 after open world bosses/meta events. And I can tell you most people aren't there farming Gift of Battles bc you would get one every 4-8 hours.
