Take Brad for example, I didn't really think Vanguard was going to be a great game, but having him post here defintely sparked my interest.

i concur
blizzard needs to realize the inadequacy of their own forums as a venue for all WoW public relations, there are a lot of people in the community who prefer to stay away from that shitpile.
i'm not convinced of what the actual harm of developers for WoW posting here is
the fact that Brad is allowed to post here and share cool information with us makes me feel like the Vanguard dev team is more comfortable openly comminicating with it's playerbase than the WoW team is, something which means quite a bit to me and a lot of former EQ'ers, having been subject to lots of content which could have benefitted heavily from increased player feedback and communication.
its healthy for gaming companies to realize there are communities of players out there, on message boards like this one, who have a lot more maturity and experience thinking about the games they play than the general public.
