Well, if they can't do it because it creates issues with disclosed information the only other thing they can say is "**** you kindly sir"

Agreed. What company is going to gleefully open their doors when all they get are dweebs tossing grenades into the lobby when they do?

Then the company might ask themselves, "Why are so many dweebs tossing grenades in our lobby?"

/agreed. In addition, right now GW2 fan-base are the Fanboys they pretty much have nothing but love for the game. The major complaint seems to be the that when you press a button and an ability fires off nothing happens, more base is needed. Unfortunately, I bought into the hype and pre-purchased the game and I wish I hadn't. GW2 really is poor game. its Warhammer online 2.0 with no feedback in combat and bad rotation design. Every quest is going to be a public quest from warhammer or rifts in Rift. Most classes are cool-down driven and most of the time your just auto-attacking.

The quest design causes them to become so oversaturate with players that you don't even know what you are doing. Down the line the will be hard to finish because not enough players maybe leveling. The story is interesting but the cut scenes are bad quality, think infamous. No to mention there is really no carrot or end game except for a carrotless; know, I know, COD and Battlefield have no carrot but they are build on fun game play and skills while guild wars 2 is a stripped down hot bar MMO. It feels incomplete.

I also don't like the cash shop, tbh it has all the problems of swtor, warhammer and maybe more, no addon support, no LFG, no raids. I only played the first 10 levels of 5 characters but that how I feel. I will level a character hopefully it will get better.
What's up with the no LFG and LFR

Because some people are jerks, and they're often the loudest as well would be my guess, there is constructive criticism directed towards the game, but 99% is pure bile and hate

As yes the much better communication of closed beta... where we were told that we were just there because they needed more people and our feedback wasn't needed because they already decided everything and to stop whining about how the game sucks because it is great!
I tell you this: though neither he nor they yet know it, he is the greatest of all the Jedi. Jacen Solo is the living Jedi dream. Even without the Force, he is more dangerous than you can possibly imagine."

Then have the nads to ban them from the forums.Temporary or permanantly.

Its Biowares game, and Biowares forums.

If this "99%" keep coming here and spewing "bile and hate" get rid of them. Don't punish your other customers by hiding your head in the sand.

Sorry, I don't buy your reason at all.

Nothing would be more counter productive than suddenly start cracking down on these people, they would use it as a sign that the game is failing and Bioware is shutting down all negativity, they do it as soon as they start removing duplicate threads about people saying they quit the game because it's boring, stupid, not WoW, too much like WoW, not enough like Star Wars, too much like Star Wars etc etc
