I really wish I could reach through the monitor and backhand some of you people.


Why for pointing out that this tripe belongs in reddit and not a forum for the discussion of world of warcraft? By the way oryx any chance we can contact your boss? You need to lock this thread for going against the CoC.

In a similar stance to the passing of Robin Williams, I think it's important for the greater entertainment industry to recognize the success and charisma of Hollywood talent both during their lifetime and after.

These movies have huge impacts on people's lives, in the same way that World of Warcraft does for many. Seeing as we also have a tribute to this good man in-game, and that we also consider ourselves part of the greater entertainment industry (hence, "Blizzard Entertainment"), I think this conversation is 100% applicably fit to be discussed on these general forums.

I think you may be better served in viewing these people's impact on the industry and trying to understand why our players might care about them rather than attempting to obstruct conversation around posts made in these good folk's memories.

Appreciate the conversations here, but let's keep this on topic and suitable for the forums.

Thanks~ :)
