Okay, whether you believe he's in the right or not, this is poor community relations. As someone who has worked support, this would have gotten me fired.

Even if you ignore a customer's issues, you never verbally marginalize it. Never.
This is good communication from Stephen. Not being in EGA yet is not a real issue. I consider that good customer service to speak factually and not sugar coat it.

people still seem to miss the point that most of us dont care about not getting in on day 1 or even 5 days eirly , but are just unhappy about how comunications are gooing out about this ...

and we dont know squad ... just waiting every day to hope that we may or may not get in that day ... waiting for a mail to drop that may or not be in your inbox ..
people accualy taken of free days of work and planned things to be able to play ..
and now were just left in teh dark ...

poor customer service and answered by a epic tweet ... well done

keep being ignorant
Quoted of SWTOR Forums: can you make sword in box light sword so sword come out when opened? then if sword is back after sword, use light saber on box, and saber will be boxed after sword is out.

It's not an issue. We all knew early access would be staggered, why act so surprised now?

People want to make it an issue, but it's not an issue. It really is not. People are not entitled to anything at all, and we are getting a few days early access for free. So no, it's not an issue.

you're paying for customer service? Or you've paid them for something?

Sorry, no one is forcing you to build false expectations around a game. We were told launch is on the 20th, and early access is up to 5 days. If you want to plan for it. take vacations on the 20th.

This is still not an issue. They are granting access as they can.

This. The customer is not always right.

Lots of stupid demands like wanting every one of a bunch of spam threads about the same issue to be addressed individually instead of deleting and consolidating the information and responses into 1 thread, for example, is where a line should be drawn. Replying to threads every time someone asks for an update when there is no new information is also where a line should be drawn.

Spamming the forums and twitter about a known issue when there are many other things that need to be heard and addressed is also where the line should be drawn.

So as someone who has worked support, you've never had to deal with swarms of irrational customers? I'd say Reid handled it pretty well.
