I shouldn't be surprised, but it's a shame how much entitlement and rot exists elsewhere within the community.

Heh. Â You haven't been around many MMOs have you? Â You should totally check out the General Discussions forum or the Customer Support/Technical Support sections of the World of Warcraft forums on maintenance day. Â Especially if it gets extended.
I've seen a lot of that myself. It's a real shame, since all it really serves to accomplish is drive away enthusiastic players from posting on the official boards of most MMO's. I often asked players I met on WoW as to why they didn't post on the official site and the answer was almost always along the lines of 'it's an awful place'.
