Hey guys, this is Kevin from ANet (I'm getting my ANet tag shortly). I was able to repro this issue. I've bugged it and we have one of our content programmers looking at it now. From what I can tell, this seems isolated to the Sandswept Isles map.

Since we can now sit on chairs, can we expect to put stuff on the table anytime soon?
Everything is on the table....
Tyria is a living world ;)

In a very real sense, the Pale Tree is sitting on Tyria itself, which is quite the seat.
Has anyone been able to work out where the newly-opened house in Divinity's Reach is? I feel like I know DR pretty well and haven't been able to find one!
It looks like this wasn't opened yet due to some crossed wires, but it will be tomorrowish!

No I'm just not a very good commander. I don't know how many times I toss the wrong siege down or in the wrong place because I'm not paying attention. When we come to your server make sure to tag up so I don't have to! In all seriousness I really thought that was a destructible wall for some reason. What I should have done is head over to the grave stones shot from there.
I should probably sit down and actually memorize siege placement positions for maps other then desert (my preferred map) instead of relying on my world/guild commanders to do so :).
Box Porter with the cameo! Woo!
Videos like this make me way, waaay more enthusiastic about the game than the Friend/Ships videos.
But then again, I'm a customer already so I know why to appreciate these things, and potential new buyers might find that too long and specific to be exciting.
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video! A lot of our different efforts are aimed at different types of players (or different types of prospective players), and I'm happy that this is the sort of content you enjoy. :)
So! We're not actually sure why this happened and it might be an issue with our CMS. It's been re-published, but the changes haven't shown up yet.
Edit: Good news! It is now no longer Literally Unreadable (if you don't know German): https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/light-up-the-sky-with-the-forged-backpack-and-glider-combo/
I know it's been a while since the AMA but I'm really curious.
Were extra ruined logs intended as... you know... it's driftwood?
That was the intent by the designer that put the drops for them together, but I think the issue is that the "Ruined Log" has confusing messaging. It probably would have worked better with a trash item that isn't the item you get from gathering a node with the wrong quality of axe.

The Mac client doesn't automatically update to the latest like the Windows client?
Since the two applications are very different internally, this is not as simple as it was/is for the Windows client.
In case you weren't aware, the 32-bit client ran under Cider, a Wine-derivative, whereas the 64-bit client is a native application.
Hi.
I'd like to directly address the assertions in the first post and repeated elsewhere that the featured video is questionable because of "the background" of the players, and how an incredibly innocent statement was misunderstood and misread. As you can see here, Poz is listed as the "overall largest supporter” for Bria’s channel

You are actually spot on with this comment and it's unfortunate that the conclusions being jumped to in the rest of the thread made you rethink it.
We cannot and will not give further personal information about players we've spotlighted, but when we chose them it wasn't based on incomplete information we pulled from the internet. They're people we've been aware of in some cases for years, whose stories we'd heard before; we wanted to share them with the community because we hoped it would be a positive experience. And for the most part, it has been.
What I'd hope for from this community is the basic understanding that nobody's life is immediately readable to total strangers, that no one is entitled to further context just because they watched a video about someone, and that nobody here would want to be under this kind of hostile scrutiny.
If they played the game five years ago and quit, then they are defacto not part of the community.
If people played the game, made friends through the game, and moved on to other games, their friendships are still real, should be celebrated. That is the essence of community.
I personally think that while romance can indeed happen overtime for players, ANet needs to market other sides of people bonding. What about asking popular guild leaders moments where their guild met up for a convention? Why not about just really good GW2 friends meeting up, and becoming IRL friends?
Marketing Players reactions to making lasting bonds is great, but romance isn't the only bond that needs to be marketable.
Totally agree! That's why two of the three videos celebrated friendships/platonic relationships and one video celebrated a romantic relationship. :)
To your point, here is the video about the [POOF] guild: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU-Y8wHn0i0&

One of the amazing things about the Guild Wars 2 community is how it has brought people together over the years. There is no minimum bar for being part of the community, no requirement for hours played or achievement points attained. The friendship they and others formed through the game have transcended beyond Guild Wars 2. And if they play other games? So what? That's what gamers do! Whether people played the game 5 years ago and quit, last played two weeks ago, took breaks over the years, or never stopped playing since launch--they are all part of the community and the friendships players make through Guild Wars 2 are real, awesome, and should be celebrated regardless of how long and how often people play the game.
Really awesome to see this. The appreciation you all have shown for our work has really been a boon to an otherwise stressful week (as release weeks usually are).
Keep being awesome.
