The reaction from anet is just as I expected it to be really, no surprise there.
It's just funny to me how even in this situation anet is trying to play the victim card by saying they received death threats, oh give me a break... it's the internet... most of us receive death threats here regularly and none of us feels the need to write about how that 0.01 % of people is horrible, we all know they are not well in their head... don't take them too seriously or even worse - generalise that your whole community is that way... But your goal with that is different, your goal is to wash your name and blame community because of that 0.01 % and that's just very sad. I thought stuff will improve with certain people returning to anet but they too proved to just not be enough to save the self pitying mental state of this company, things will only go downhill from here, perhaps it is time for a lot of us to depart now before the decline becomes even more rapid.
It could continue to be a really great game, it is a real shame it was put into inexperienced hands.
Promise of a patch that will fix this in 14 days is a method used many times, I've been here long enough to understand how empty that promise is, I suggest players to not waste their time on empty promises... well you shall see what I mean in 14 days anyway.
