why? this is what stress tests are for. Great succes!
No a stress test is to measure if a server can handle multiple logins and connection at one time so this stress test failed but hopefully they will be perfect when the game comes out

I hope you know that one of the reasons Anet is letting prepurchase play 3 days before is because they don't want to handle so many logins/create accounts at one time. They don't want to end up like diablo 3. They're being cautious.
