Now this is a way to get input from a community, however this needs to be advertised in game, as only 10% or so of players read these forums.

Im also curious how they will deal with the kids that will start flaming or whatever.

I think that there should not be any in-game advertising.
You need to keep participation reasonable, not to mention there will most likely be a participant cap.
The less people that knows about it, the less "Anet Sux for capping chat" threads we will have to suffer through.

Completely open chat? I can see this being a disaster. I mean, it will just be like one of Gaile's ingame meetings... spammers and idiocy galore. Of course, it's easier to remove people in chatrooms, but I still foresee this being chaotic.

A solution to minimize a disaster is to have a set of speakers + devs talk to each other in the first half of the chat (while everyone else reads/listen in). The speakers could be moderators of the forums and they will be asking questions to Anet on behalf of the community.

The second half of the discussion could be open to all. (the usual that contains spammer)


(just a suggestion)

Question...

You have to download the program...can you get the basic version and it will work? OR do you have to pay that stupid 4 dollar monthly fee? to be able to listen in on the chat?

Due to my supreme powers of prophecy, I have transcribed the entire chat!

Zinger314: Hello to all the ArenaNet employees for doing this chat.

GaileG: Holy crap, Zinger's being nice and considerate. I think someone hijacked his forum handle.

Zinger314: Let's first start off with PvE. What will you be adding to the current PvE until GW: EotN?

IzzyC: minipets, n00b

Zinger314: Izzy, I thought you were the skill balancer...

IzzyC: its still true

JeffS: No, it's not.

IzzyC: STFU n00b

Zinger314: Never mind. How does ArenaNet plan to remedy the Soul Reaping nerf for Necromancers in PvE?

IzzyC: lol pve

Zinger314: Alright...next question. How does ArenaNet plan to make Mesmers viable in PvE?

PatrickW: Delete them all. You ever hear the saying "you have to destroy the village to save it?"

Zinger314: Let's try something else. Gaile said that there is no anti-farm code in Hard Mode, yet anecdotal evidence on fansites such as Guild Wars Guru says otherwise. Is it true?

*You have been kicked from the chat. Reason: Shut up, seriously. We didn't expect actual questions. We just thought we'd let people vent their questions and ignore them, as usual. --Gaile
A bleak future, I know. Maybe Hiro can kill Sylar in time to stop the bomb...

O come on weren't people complaining before they never got to directly communicate with Anet besides, Gaile. I think it will be great, but honestly Zingers thing did make me crack up in laughter.

Love it Zinger! However, you will now most likely be banned for making fun of Anet
