The administrative staff needs to be very careful how they appear to the community. You need to do one of two things: stop being around whenever a specific group of players do things, or stop coming off as excessively defensive when the inevitable questions begin.

1) Of course GMs will be around when boss mobs are killed for the first time. There is absolutely nothing improper about this. GMs are there to watch something they put their hard work into finally be experienced by a group of players for the first time. They're there to make sure that Nagafen doesn't explode or crash the zone .etc .etc. I'd imagine they're also there to make sure no one exploits and, when the situation warrants, to give out titles.
2) You'd be defensive too if you worked on a project for months and months and put countless unpaid hours into and once it launches people start accusing you or saying you're doing a bad job.
The GMs for the most part (from what I've seen) have been very patient, very understanding, and very willing to disclose information. That said, I don't blame any GMs if they get upset at reading through one too many accusations and trolls. Imagine yourself in their shoes before getting all riled up. This isn't like live, this isn't a paid service, the guy with the green name is NOT being paid, so you can't just treat them like you'd treat a nameless SOE employee and expect to be given a "sorry sir of course the customer is always right".
