I'd just like to have this confirmed. I think it's a lie/glitch/exploit, but here it goes. Someone posted that they saw a GM say something in trade chat, and they said that GM's are now monitering trade chat. Is this true? I really think it's a lie, but I'm curious about it.

Q u o t e:
There are two situations:

1) The GM actually popped in and said something.
2) The person talking recently had a GM fix something on their character for them and the glitch left the GM tag on.
Well put, Coresala. Item number 1 in your post accurately describes what is going on with Moon Guard, and other realms. GMs will sometimes appear in public chat channels to say hello and make sure everybody's playing nice.

As always, if you don't see the "Blizz" icon then it's not a GM.

Thanks. It's really cool that it's real. Mind if I link this thread for them to prove that it's real, or would it get me banned?
Not a problem. Part of the reason we provide information in a public channel like this is to help spread the word, and GMs have traditionally made these kinds of appearances from time to time. If you see the Blizz logo, it's official.
