If I recall the fly traps chasing you (moving) came along with the patch they were doing at the time. Maybe the one that everything could go through walls and such. I always thought that was just a mistake, and got set back to normal.
I really don't see any point in having issues with new testers myself. If anything, having the entire open servers open to test would be great. If they worked it right it could be a large improvement. After a few weeks of everyone on test, Disney went through and picked out some people doing some good testing and reporting. Kept these people as live converted over again to normal, would pick out a class of testers that could make more a difference.
Frankly, old or new testers, and this view if they aren't testing much they are booted, I just can't say I am seeing any of that.
Using something like this above example would bring in a new crowd to kill some of this stuff maybe. Another area I think could use some help in test is have some of the staff come in on test now and then and talk to some people, get some first hand views over some of these bugs etc. Perhaps some do as regular characters, but overall I rarely hear a entirely lot of guild chat etc. on bugs, and glitches. Maybe another area staff can come in and set a few guidelines and ideas to testing. I can't say test server has any real guidelines, and such to test, as well as even a idea of certain areas to test that just got a change. I believe this area could use a little more communication, rather than 4 patches with same notes of improvements from start, and reports being sent in hopefully being viewed. At least for me I would rather know this last patch just did something with sailing, rather than running over like 40 other things to finally find this out.
New people also adds another feature, they are starting from the begining and seeing all the quests and such. I know at least for myself, I sure don't go through all the quests constantly, and especially every patch.
