I have just had one of the worse days I have had in a while with a family member ending up in the hospital with a possible heart attack. After watching them shiver in pain for hours i thought i might be able to go home after visiting hours at the emergency room and relax and enjoy this awesome game that i have just began playing about a month ago. I have had nothing but good things to say about arena net and GW2 but this is just annoying as hell. it is not offensive, it is not gross, or anything like that it is just flat out stupid and not the least bit clever. I didnt laugh at all…i am pretty kittened that it doesnt go away after a few minutes of being logged in or something. maybe i will just stop forking over cash in the gem store and go back to playing World of Warcraft where i have never encountered something so immature. What kind of company would want to intentionally kitten off their community like this. NOT HAPPY AT ALL!!!
