Dumb. You should be able to say anything you want in /zone. It is for the zone! Why traders have to be singled out and considered spam? I guess /zone is only for people asking dumb questions like "will ther be a char char wipe???" Why not a /LFG channel? All those people looking for groups sure are spamming up my zone chat…
I was in a pvp match where the party leader was AFK the entire match. At less than a minute until the match is over the party leader returns and kicks everyone out of the group. Even me. And I was the only one not complaining about him being afk. What an a-hole.
Don't be so uptight. They are just letters. They can't harm you. People probably wouldn't make names like that as often if you didn't respond the way you are. You're playing right into their little fantasy of someone being appalled by their name.
I've read a lot of people's complaints about GWF. Honestly, and not to be rude, but I think you just need to learn how to build/play your class. I play a GWF and I do tons of damage.

Actually it is an open beta launch. This is the only way to stress test their servers with this many people logging in to play. Closed beta is to test for bugs, open beta is to test the servers when it's flooded by masses of people. I'd give the game another week before or so before not calling it a beta anymore.
