Hello,

You (ANet) using a couple of Trackers in your websites.
Twitter Bade, Goggle +1, Facebook Connect and AddThis.
(AddThis is using the very controversial “canvas fingerprintig” to track and follow a user everywhere over the internet)

However: i’m blocking all trackers.
Your websites (the news pages) are not working without this tracking. (see Attachment). An extremly bad approach and programming.

Flash .. yeah .. also Flash is the biggest security hole ever. But use a flashblocker that
at least shows you that there is a blocked flash ^^

JavaScript .. not really .. there are simply so many things that are not possible
without Javasript .. starting with simple things like mouseover-menues and
then Ajax stuff that chnages the page dynamically without having it to reload
after every click.

However, the Newspage works without problems if i save it and delete all JavaScript
from the source-code. So the TE is maybe also blocking Cloudfront or Images
or whatever.

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.

That’s a known “issue”. I have came across that and I figured out what was causing it, check this thread for more info: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Why-is-this-happening-1/
