OK, I got it.
If you want soccer in GW2, go to sPVP. WvW is just like real life wars – they have never been fair. Someone had better population, better technologies, better spirit, all had spies, traitors, etc. Less “unnatural” rules there are, more freedom there is.
And I think, it’s cool.

People are not unable to deal with their freedom but use that freedom to increase competitive edge in a competitive mode. What else do you expect them to do? A competitive player does not think “how can I dumb myself down so someone else has a chance”. He thinks “how can I improve efficiency”.

Changing servers is not what competitive player thinks. Competitive player chooses a server, and then builds tactics how to win.
Your “how can I improve efficiency” via free transfer is for people who are looking for easy wins. That’s not competitive.

Imagine if soccer rules were: “You can bring however many players you want, and can play 24/7.” This is what ANet does.

Sorry, no. There is limit per map in WvW, I don’t remember how much but the number is not huge.

It’s like being a dictator, removing all laws, and then blaming people for doing crime.

So, who to blame? Dictator? Hilarious.
Of course, people. Your arguments are right, but the conclusions are not.

But we’re not living among aliens, so human factor needs to be taken into account.

Yes, absolutely. But what people need to realize is that it happened because of them, not because of AN.
I agree that AN needs to do something ASAP. But it’s a very nice social experiment, you know

What you’re basically saying is that society/state with no laws is OK, and if anything happens it is only human nature fault, and not the fault of the government. You can’t make anarchy and expect everything will be OK. That’s your thesis, and ANet’s assumption. And it’s obviously wrong. What if soccer had no rules? Competitive players would break each others legs.
Human nature is that in a competitive game you are competitive. To make sure competition is fun and healthy, you make rules. That’s how it is. You don’t say “everything goes” because then you have hackers, mass transfers, spies, griefers, spammers, bots… oh wait.
Why are bots banned in GW? Why isn’t your and ANet’s attitude: “it’s human nature, deal with it or fix it yourself”? You know why? Because it’s not healthy for the game and healthy for ANet’s profits. That’s why they made a rule against it, instead of appealing to human nature which would be utterly silly.

No, it’s other way around; and I’m not sure how you came up with that conclusion.
Society/state without laws is NOT OK. Simply, because freedom will turn into anarchy, as you said.
That’s what we have here. People are unable to deal with their freedom, as expected. They need harsh rules, then they will stop moaning.

And I fail to see how you can compare basic rules with something like free transfers. There are rules in WvW: you need to capture points for given time, you need to have supply to build siege weapons, etc.

Same with bots. Sorry man, you can’t equalize system hacking with free transfers, different timezones and things like that.

And calling free transfers someone’s fault is just hilarious. It’s people’s problem, nothing else.

Seriously, guys?
ArenaNet provided you with servers. Equal opportunities for everyone. There is absolutely no fault from ArenaNet.

This situation has happened only due to human nature. It shows what players really are.

Don’t tell me, it’s not obvious. You are just upset, so let it go.
