I would like to iterate that the core Mass Effect developers (A team) have been the center of Bioware for a long time and they're still full of great and talented people. DA and DA2 were team B, and TOR was led by members of team B and whomever... let us not get into that.
More importantly think the management at Bioware are horrible and the EA online play isn't anything new, swearing has always been a weird ban controversy with EA games. Don't say "fuck", you might get banned!
