/bug tickets are to report that you've found a bug, which is then sent off to QA for analysis. You do not receive a response to these unless they need more information from you, and you should not expect one, or expect an immediate fix.
/bug is a QA tool. If you are stuck and require assistance, you need to use the help reporting tools (/help works here).
As for this:They need to hire some contract workers for a few months.
Unless you just want people answering you with form letters, this WILL NOT help. Support staff require extensive training. Heck, at the job I'm at now (internal IT/help desk, not in the gaming industry), we are required to have 6 weeks of training before they let us answer calls. And in this job, they expect you to already have a high degree of computer/networking knowledge. They do not teach you how computers work or how networks work, you are required to know that before training even starts.
I did my due diligence by bugging the quest. Been stuck for 2 days. Saw another got fixed, but even though I replied to the thread that I was also having issues, nothing was done, no contact to me... so I guess I need to create a thread to complain and then threaten something.
Hope it gets fixed, I dont want to cancel, but I am not going to reward a lack of support on my actual issue.

Bugs happen. They're irritating, they're sometimes gamebreaking, they make people frustrated, but they happen. They get fixed. It takes time. I'm not exactly sure what you're threatening to do. Leaving? Not much of a threat IMO.
Patience is a virtue, my friend. I am sure there are other quests and crafting and fun things for you to do in the meantime.
OK Customer service is pretty bad right now, I'm still waiting for a ticket that I submitted 3 days ago to be addressed. But they've got perhaps millions of players creating many thousands of tickets, they just don't have the staff to cope. They need to hire some contract workers for a few months.

Log the call with support, see what they say. Maybe post what issue is to see if we can help you.
I got bugged on April 1st for the main quest. They told me yesterday they are unable to fix it, thus I must wait. Or start a new character. If they told me that then, instead of 20+ bullcrap form tickets later, I would have recreated my character.
But, by my estimate, you have another four to five days of waiting for a response of, sorry, can't fix it.

The thing to take from this is that upon release of a major title, there are thousands of people submitting bug reports and seeking support through the proper channels. From the customer end, we don't see what is going on behind the scenes. Rest assured that the issues will be resolved in due time, which is sometimes longer than just a few days.

I realize that, read my OP... I have been patient, and then witnessed others getting fixed without me getting fixed as well.
This obviously needs a manual touch, and they need to address it.

You keep telling people to read your OP. What do you think we're all doing? You have not been patient at all. Two days? And you expect sympathy?
