thank you for your response. I have two extra questions but it's ok if you can't answer them:
does the r-slur fall under the 'prejudiced language' umbrella or not? I tend to see it more often than racial, transphobic or homophobic slurs, so it'd be nice to know whether it's worth reporting them
one thing some games do (f.ex LoL) is have automated feedback on reports (something as simple as "one of the reports you sent lead to a punishment"), I figure there's probably some technical reasons in-game why this wouldn't work in gw2 but has it been considered at all?
Hey there! I'll try to answer these as best as I can. There are quite a few reasons why I can't go into all the bells and whistles with our reporting or account action policies, but hopefully this will be enough info for you!
Yes, any and all offensive or prejudiced language can potentially be grounds for suspension - "racial, sexual, or otherwise," as mentioned in my post.
I say potentially since we of course need to be aware of the incident, but also because context and frequency will matter in some cases. Like, for this case, there are obviously other contexts and definitions where "retard" can be used non-offensively, such as in a musical context, or where a simple discussion between friends might arise in an educati...
Here is a statement from last week by a Anet Lead GM about how reports for verbal abuse get handled.
Thanks for posting this! Came here to link the same thing.
@OP, if you want another look into our process, I also made a post on the official forums recently. While it echos Dornsinger's post almost exactly, I know some people appreciate a different take/different format, so maybe more context can be useful to you!

Yep sorry that it read that way. In fact when Linsey cut in to interrupt thats what actually made me think 'what were they about to say!? Did they just stop their colleague saying something they shouldn't?'. I'm just super pessimistic about the media ππ
Naw, it was just a turn of conversation. Not me trying to control anything, just help out in describing what happened.
It's a source of biased, one sided and probably carefully prepared information. I'm not saying they're lying, but they are not objective source. They are presenting a PR prepared point of view.
That's not what this was. We were being interviewed about the Skyscale and were asked a lot of questions about this as well, which I guess wasn't totally unexpected but definitely not what I personally thought I was going to be answering. I was doing my best to answer genuinely and honestly about my experience working at ArenaNet and my experience with the layoffs we had. These were not prepared statements at all. I'm not in a PR position, I'm a game designer that happened to be asked a lot of tough questions about what happened and tried to do my best to express my truth about it. Of course, I am biased, as noted, since I have worked here a long time and continue to, but I'm a deeply honest person too. It saddens me a little bit that didn't read through in my answers and came off as some kind of press release (which, again, this was not), but I get where you are coming from.
I really like the emphasis on how the crunch times are bad for the devs and the industry in general, even if you're such a passionate company.
The modern industry internally celebrates this awful practice and I always hope that a team that goes against such toxic and damaging culture can prosper even higher.
Coming from a studio that brushed off extended crunch as "part of the job", ANet's culture of promoting a balanced work and home life was a huge draw for me.
Oh, she was always there! She just got a little less stealthy after A Star To Guide Us. ;)
(Translation: yes, we added her. I was then amused when people started talking like she had always been there.)
Totally irrellivent side detail - I used this instance when initially testing her sniper mechanics before we had our map, putting her in the rafters above the party so you could hide behind the pillars when approaching the pyramid. Somewhere out there is a very bad timeline where I forgot to remove that test.
This looks like some extreme screen tearing to me. If your drivers are up to date make sure Vertical Sync is turned on in the options menu
I am not sure how I should feel about that, because raids are the only content I really enjoy :c
They're in good hands with Byron.
wait, you also got layoff? OH NUUUUUUUUUU
Nope, I'm still around. Leading Living World episode now instead of Raids :)
Should be resolved!
Thanks for reporting this as well. We're looking into it now and should get a fix out ASAP.
She led the team that did S4.4, my favorite by FAR (yes, more than S4.5 because I played it WAY more). That tornado πͺ is STILL the most unique thing in any map of the game. If I directed the game, sheβd be my clutch senior leader.
Aw thank you so much!! <3

Read moreI wonder if they still have that costume lying around somewhere.
I've heard people say that we still have the mask somewhere, but I haven't seen it.
centaurs got six of them
Are centaurs technically insects?
No exoskeleton or segmented bodies.
Real happy with how this area turned out in Jahai. It's pretty impossible for "Mysterious red glow coming from a statue" to not look cool, but the updated statue turned out even better than expected.
Reporting that this doesn't happen to me, and I play every race except Human (and use my shrine guardian on all my characters). So if it's always happening for OP and never for me, there's some weird third factor
We fixed this on March 7th, so if you checked after the fix went out that would explain it! :)
So how soon before Warclaw is fixed from being able to Jump directly into structures, like Garrison, or others? https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/axvq3m/you_dont_need_to_destroy_the_gates_if_you_can/
As /u/ChaliElle stated below we are working through the exploits that have been reported. Some of these can take longer than others to fix but we're on it.
I think they nerfed both Battle Maul and Superior Battle Maul, but they forgot to update the tooltips for both. They still say 10 targets. Either that or the update didn't actually go through.
Also, mounts are still disabled in the Borderlands easter eggs.
Can confirm the tooltips weren't updated properly.
