Unless you're on that project team, your expectations are pretty much built on salt and angst.

I am confused, you say you are a legacy but you are waiting for another code? I am a legacy too and the beta code you received is good for all four phases of beta. In fact, one you enter your code and are a registered beta tester, you do not have to enter the code again. I do not know why you are waiting for yet another code...
There's 700,000 beta registrants. It's around 5,000 people per server. They even had to take down character creator for a bit to ease congestion traffic going into the game. If the people (1.0 players included, just because you haven't got your key yet doesn't mean every 1.0 player is going through the same thing) who HAVE got their keys are still working their way into the game - they're NOT going to keep spamming waves of keys out until the ACTUAL BETA is stable and running for the people already playing.
The only thing that "isn't realistic" is the majority of the attitudes people have about the first 24hrs of a beta test. You're excited, we get it - I am pretty excited as well and I'm still not playing either but this "WOE IS ME CAN'T BELIEVE SE WORST TREATMENT EVER" is really pathetic.
um.. yeah, it is.....
This as well. If you're waiting for the download link - there are other ways to download away from the forums. I downloaded the client without receiving an email. You don't need multiple registration codes. The ONLY thing was different was Alpha > Beta codes. The alpha registration was different from Beta1 - if you tested in Beta1 (actively played) you should be able to log in.
lol.. worst treatment?
but sure, ill give them credit next time they mess up;)
Okay but the problem is there are people who have played previous beta phases and can't access it at all. My account says I don't have beta access even though I played in 1.0 and previous beta phases. I log into the client and it asks for a code. Doesn't matter if it should work, the point is it's not.
Playing in 1.0 and playing in previous Beta phases are completely different things/problems though so try not to confuse them. There's obviously separate issues.
My friend played Beta phase 1 - did not play 2 at all - and is currently logged in playing Phase 3 with no additional email or key. He is not a legacy player although he did play in 1.0 just not Legacy status.
Why you cannot do that is a different problem from the majority of the complaints that are "I'm a legacy 1.0 player who hasn't got a key yet" scenario.
