Kind of sounds like you answered your own question.
I think one of the major things that made me give high praise for this game is the fact that the creators continue to keep the players in the loop of their actions on fixing the issues and improving the game. It is VERY RARE these days to see any game company care about its players more then money. That alone may have encouraged gamers to be optimistic and have faith that the game will eventually turn out even better. If you or anyone else can't see that, then I'm sorry for you.
However In the end, the bigger question is why do you care so much about someone else's scoring? I wouldnt imagine it effecting your personal life in any way.

It's ironic that you started with the 'answer your own question' jibe and the smug, self righteous 'I'm sorry for you' bs because then you show exactly why giving a game a 10 is a bad idea. You see, your perfect 10 does affect my personal life and that of the OP. Every Fan boy that gives a game a 10 is telling Anet and every other company out there to continue making decent games and we'll snatch them off the shelf and set little shrines up around our computers while we play. Oh the marketplace is down again and I can't use the mail? Thank you messiah! Why go to all the effort it takes to make a great game when a slight improvement over the last one gets a perfect score? Yay Mediocrity! As for Anet caring about us more than money, thats stupid. Keeping players informed is just a good business practice and I do give them kudos but come on, nobody runs a business on love and tender feelings.
If I were to rate this game today I'd give it an 8, because right now it's a 7 but I think it will turn into a 9 once they work the kinks out. My review would mention something about how it's still in beta, but that it's like an old house with 'good bones' and tons of potential. My review would be loved by all. Other than the fanboys but they don't count.
My statement "kind of sounds like you answered your own question" was geared towards one statement the OP said in his post that stuck out the most......"Yes I know you will all say its their opinion". I only rated the game as a 10 based on my own personal opinion.
Everyone has their opinions, standards, or whatever that they love in a game. Why do I have to score a game based on someone else's views? Because it effects their personal life? Sorry but sounds like a personal problem to me. This is not a life or death situation. It's a Video Game..... and though I am trained in the armed forces to protect you in the country, I was not trained to help you on your personal issues. However what I can do is end my part in this discussion by saying I'm sorry if my personal score effects your personal life.
