This is the problem with providing a closed beta. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. It's a great idea to do the beta in the hopes of finding bugs and stress testing your servers, but then you get meatheads like this that are unable to abide by the NDA and are posting conclusions about the game in a public forum. A post like that (as true and accurate as it is) runs the risk of unfairly scaring away potential customers for the developer...all based on an unfinished product.
While I am not a big EA supporter (NHL 13...ugh), I am with them on this decision. I think banning him from playing the game is an over-reaction though.
