Hi Anet and GW2 devs. I’m probably not alone when I say this but I wanted to say thank you for all your hard work in GW2. I’m saying this because I see so many people raging on these forums about the game as well as on other websites. It saddens me that those who complain the loudest are seen the most. I can’t even begin to comprehend the work and dedication that goes into building a video game let alone an MMO, and even though GW2 isn’t “perfect” it’s sure a hell of a lot of fun; I don’t know any game that IS perfect. So thank you. I’ve enjoyed many, many hours playing this game at night and unwinding. I hope the negative people don’t get you guys down and if they do please remember that there are people like me out here who really love to play your game. Keep your heads high guys and gals.
Hope you see this...thank you Anet
Thank you Faremire. I concur with you in every sense and every word you’ve posted. It’s refreshing and I feel like we can still help make a difference in helping the GW2 community grow positively, and at the same time, help to steer the game in the right direction by providing constructive feedback and as in this case, the occassional but very sincere appreciation for all the hard work the developers have put in to give us this highly remarkable game.

I have mixed feelings about that topic.
On one side then yes, we are not good enough at praising the things in the game that we adore and we most likely (me at least) should be better at telling that as well.
On the other side, as you said yourself, the game is not perfect (and it never will be. It never can be perfect for everyone). It can however be improved.
If people don’t voice their concerns, if people don’t take the time to write posts about the things that they are not so happy about, come up with suggestions, point out problematic areas, then reading the forum would not give the developers much to work with.
I agree that the tone sometimes becomes (way) too hostile, but I do not see every post pointing out a problem, or voicing concerns, as a complain post.
If no one ever gave the negative feedback (yes it should be in a constructive way still), if people instead slowly left the game without explaining why, then there would not be much to work with.
I guess I am not sure what you are refering to with: “Negative people”.
And all who stood by and did nothing, who are they to criticize the sacrifices of others?
Our blood has bought their lives.
I just wanted a AAA MMO with no sub made by ArenaNet. And it’s awesome.”

I agree Reesha. I just think it’s a shame that the “voices” of a lot of those who propose improvements sounds more like entitlement and meanness. I’m sure the devs and Anet are big boys and girls and have thick enough skin to shrug most of the negativity off, but they’re still human (I’m not saying that you said they are not; I’m just sayin’ I think we sometimes forget to lift each other up and be encouraging without personal agendas, demands, or immediate negativity.
