That she decided to make a character that didn't use her real-life name, just like all the rest of us do.

Actually, I added her in hopes of catching her when she's online talking to the public. Not that it works, but I try... :P

Dyekiesha Joie.. kinda cool really.

I have her on my friends list so I can try to get to kamadan or wherever she is to listen to the chat, I did notice this name of hers though a few minutes ago when I logged on.

Gaile uses a different account to actually play, but maybe she needed mule space?

Gaile is nothing more than a person that provides chat in a different color text. There are no real answers to questions that you ask her about the game. You basically get the same response to everything "I will look into it" or "I will send an email"
Any kind of information about the game she gives is vague to the point of it just fueling rumors.

I also add Gaile's name in case I catch her on when she's talking to the public. She even talked a while on that character at the monestary. She said it's her mule.

Gaile stays on "Do Not Disturb" to avoid whisper spam from all you Gaile-stalkers, so you no pming for "a nice chat".

I have her on my list in hopes of meeting her someday. I've met The Frog (and even had him answer one of my questions), but never Gaile (whenever she's on it's too late, district full).

She is useful, though I worship the Frog way more than her.

Well, She probably has
Protector title for all 3 campaigns,
100% Cartographer in all 3.
Max on Ale, Sugar, Treasure, and Wisdom.
Which gives her the "people know me" title.

I think it is time for her to try something different.
Congratz!!

Quite the cynic, aren't we?

Yes, Gaile isn't a game designer or developer, she is in Community Relations. That means talking to people and serving as a conduit between the Development Team and the player base. Largely a thankless job at times, I'd guess.

It's not in her job description to publicly lay out Anet's 20 year business plan or answer every post on the forums. She is an ambassador for ANet within the Guild Wars community and a lot of what she facilitates, you don't see.

You think the ANet dev-team works in a vacuum completely disconnected from their customer-players? Think again. Even good things may need some moderation, I have been part of many online games that rushed with out thought or planning to react to player demands, the outcomes were not good for the life of the game.

A quote comes to mind:

The mills of the gods grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine.
