You do have a few good points. +1
But for one: FUD can only spread when there is no transparency. Having the users discover the gifting restrictions and keeping silent about it for hours is unprofessional. I believe the reasons for the restrictions are valid and all, but we should have learned it from the horse's mouth with no room for rumours and speculation.
And you can't hold it against people if they make fun of the "temporary" if the same "temporary" measures have been in place for Witcher 3 for months.
Of course, verbally abusing the team is just immature and nasty. And it won't solve a thing.
I still think the gifting restrictions should have been announced on the front page, with a "We're sorry" and "It's to protect the legitimate customers" and "We're working on it as fast as we can". Transparency.
Obviously I missed the Victor Vran thing... Sounds ridiculous.
