Not be to nasty or anything, but is the fact that "A Realm Reborn" is an entirely new client - and the fact that the current version is going down within the next couple of weeks, not been broadcast properly?

I swear, in another thread some guy was ranting about the problems with the current version, but that is the entire reason they are making "A Realm Reborn"...isn't it? Call it a 'patch' or 'update' if that is what makes you sleep at night and throw insults, but minus the fact they where good enough to let us keep playing while manning it with a skeleton crew, all the suggestions have been going towards "A Realm Reborn" and what, for all intents and purposes, is a new game.

Am I going crazy? Reading these forums makes my head hurt badly, but I keep coming back as it is basically the best place to get information.
