Did you use a Mini-Charr as a decoy? 
Racthoh
You got a chance to play against her.

GvG is the only competitive format where results actually matter, since there is the GvG ladder with playoffs and seasons and etc. Unranked GvGs they are allowed, ranked GvGs they are not. Everything else, I don't see why not.

Gaile Gray is PR, not a developer.
floppinghog
they aren't banned from playing their own game... duh

Gaile, last time I saw her was a lvl 7 R/Mo. But she probably rolled a PvP char for 12v12.
Sir Skullcrasher
I mean playing the game for fun not for GvG cuz we all know how many LONG hours some guilds goes through to get their rank and you don't want peoples from a-net to own your ass and bring your ranking down. 
lyra_song
How can you compare wall street insider trading to a video game? XD
Considering Gaile very rarely knows what the programmers are up to, i doubt she has any more advantage than i would if i had a magic 8 ball
Although im sure people who cursed at her in battle would surely be banned already....

Erm, how exactly do you know it was Gaile? Was she running around banning people left and right while calling them noobs in purple text? Howzabout giving other people's build periodic smacks of the nerfbat? If I was her, that's what I'd do. Them again, I'm not in PR for a reason.

You know I'm going to call you on this, as Gaile Gray is not a PC. If you think you played with or against me, let me know, 'cause someone's spoofing and that's going to result in a timeout in the corner. Either that or you decided to post a laughably refutable thread for some silly reason.

Seems like your PR no matter what gaile( even if you do something else at the actual office). I think the only way to describe answering questions in lions arch....is PR
:P
:P
Sir Skullcrasher
But Gaile, how would someone used your name if its already registered on the server?

This whole thread makes me laugh.

Gaile has multiple accounts, and she doesn't use the account with "Gaile Gray" character (her R/Mo7 she uses for in-game visits) to play. She specifically said that. So there's no way you could know that you've played against Gaile.
edit: Gaile beat me to it
like she said "easily refutable" :P

From what I know, game devs tend to play under names no one knows them by and don't allow anyone to know they are part of the dev team...
Overnite
This troll gets an 8/10 rating.

[sarcasm]i believe general wise guy, after all, he is providing quite significant proof that he did indeed play against gaile with screenshots and his frequent replies to his thread[/sarcasm]

If i had a gold coin for everytime i've seen someone with a name like "galie gray", "glaie grey" and such, i'd have 3.

Did somebody call for a Trolltwatter?

I don't think Gaile plays anyway as she is far to busy playing the frog and flying here and there and if she has kids looking after them.

Former Ruling
In an instanced game like GW I can see why GvG rated would be the only think they are prohibited from on their "higher status" accounts. In openworld MMOs (most of them) GM's aren't allowed to actually effect the world while on their GM accounts unless its to solve a problem (Like they aren't allowed to kill things or mine/fish/etc just for fun - because all of this is taking away from the experience of the normal players, but in an instanced type world all of that doesn't matter)
She didn't deny ever doing alliance battles either
