i thought people saying stuff like that earlier in the threadWhere?
I have only seen claims that it was the community that got pissed first and then the hate mob flooded into the GW2 community places (reddit and official forums) to take credit and/or fuel the fire, or claim to be "concerned" customers (even tho their post history clearly showed otherwise).
This claim I find to be quite reasonable. The discussions even on (GW2) reddit were pretty matter of fact with community members saying this was not okay for them, before the hate mob flooded it after an hour or so and started twisting it into what it became ("she's a SJW woman and therefore bad (and he is a cuck)").
I mean, of course the hate mob found it immediately, they pretty much stalked her already.
if this was already widely known, i guess i just spent 30 minutes searching /pol/ for no good reason. FML
