This is worth a read.
The good news is, they're aware of the issues with mail, the trading post, and partying - a lot of the things we've been concerned about.
The bad news - and this is extremely important - is that several players have been permanently banned for exploiting a bug regarding karma prices for cultural weapon vendors. This demonstrates that ArenaNet is taking a hard line against such offenses. Buying one or two weapons by mistake did not earn a ban, only buying the weapons in numbers indicative of malicious intent (i.e. to game the system and wreak havoc on the economy).
If you encounter a discrepancy like this, please do the right thing and tell ArenaNet immediately. Don't post about it here, don't tell anyone else, and certainly don't try to take advantage of it yourselves. I don't want to see any of you disappear. Regardless of whether you agree with the harshness of the punishment, use your judgment and do what you can to keep Guild Wars 2 a fun experience.
