Not really referring to fluff threads or automated responses; however, those are still better than FFXIV. There are a lot of good responses both by CM's and developers themselves all over the WoW forums. This includes their PTR forum, class forums etc.

FFXIV just frontloads information into a live letter and then ignores us for 3 months until the next live letter. WoW releases information and then goes into consistent back and forth discussion.
