I never really understood the asshattery of SOE GMs on Live. The entire company pretty much was incredibly arrogant until WoW destroyed their player base. Banning people because their game was incomplete and bugged was just another example of this. I was at E3 in 2003 as a dev and a journalist, and the Blizzard guys were gracious and generous back then (showing an early build of WoW). SOE were impossible to access, and literally sneered at anyone who tried to get time with them.
Suddenly after WoW shipped they were all sweetness and light, and couldn't do enough for people, but everyone had already moved on.
