I think the fact that they have to go out of their way to get testers is a bad sign for them. Even bad MMO's have a selective open beta, rarely do they offer to give beta accounts to fileplanet freebie accounts, unless they need intensive stress testing..

Champions online is free and open to all. Its called 'Open Beta' and most if not all MMOs go thru it.

This just goes to show you that no matter what a developer does, that people will misconstrue it and complain about it.

If they didn't open it up to anyone people would complain that they are trying to hide something or that it isn't really a 'open' beta at all. Then even if they do open it up to anyone, someone comes along and says they did it because they are desperate for testers.
