Initially I thought it was mail from a scammer. I Checked and the achievement was really gone. What is worse the points for all the GW1 achievements was also gone. I could not find any major outrage on the forums as I assume will happen if A-net suspends the title. Now the automated mail is written in some humorous style and I will suggest the same style: I suggest A-net places the GW1 and GW2 servers in the same room and remove any obstacles that can hinder communication such as routers and ISP’s between them. Communication is key to problem solving in any relationship. (kidding but close enough) The text in the mail should have been more direct and less obscured to accommodate both the loophole and the legit earners of the title. But then which coder would have thought legit earners of the title would receive the message, or that coms might go down? No offence. I relogged and the achievement was back and the points showed up in my recent achievements. Not the best workaround for commination error handling. I mean, someone had to go and code recovery while the code on the login server could have returned without action if coms with GW1 server could not be established. A-net is in control of both severs and can take action once it has been verified that the account does, or does not qualify for the rewards. Maybe it has a minor incidence but expect a lot heat if the GW1 server goes down and 100000+ GW2 players get this on their GW2 inbox.
