i l l m a t i c Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 World of Warcraft, otherwise known simply as WoW, is one of the most popular and successful computer games in history. It is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game that 6 million people pay $10 -15 per month to play. This type of popularity creates a sample size that is large enough to reflect the forces that control it. In Layman's terms, with this many people playing this online game at any given time human nature tends to get a stronger representation. The first "reality" check was a bug that caused a plague to outbreak and affect people's characters in certain cases instantly killing any player below a certain level. The second "reality" check was when this group of Warcraft players otherwise known as a guild interrupted a memorial service. Apparently, some dude dies in real life who is a popular WoW player. The people in the game think it would be nice to have a memorial for the player so they log into his account, take the character to a lake, and set it up for everyone to come pay their respects. A bunch of dudes decide this would be a great time to ambush everyone so they run over a hill, kill the dead guy's character, and then wipe out everyone who was there to show their respects. They filmed the whole thing and put it on the net for everyone to see. FUNERAL AMBUSHED R.I.P for teh guy...but ROFL at the ambush.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyoak99 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) I can't read some of the writing after the comments. What does it say? The soundtrack PWNS though! It looks like they need more security at that funeral! Edited April 8, 2006 by garyoak99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyoak99 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 that was so cruel but funny but that shyte was cold bloodded<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Perhaps it was a copycat of a real life event Try entering the words "memorial ambushed" into Google. You'll come across a news article where gunmen ambushed people at an actual outdoor memorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyoak99 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) Remind me of Mafias battle<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Really? I read about a memorial service on November 10, 1996. The memorial service for Michail Lichodej was interrupted by a bomb attack. It turns out members of the Russian Mafia killed Michail's mother, widow, son, and successor with the bomb. Was the above incident what you were referring to in your message? Edited April 8, 2006 by garyoak99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diso Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 It was a memorial service for a girl and they had it at her favorite area, which was unfortunately a pvp area. So the guild just raids the memorial service. It's cruel, but the organizers should have taken that into account. And a lot of the people there were probably high level, they were just wearing cheap clothes and stuff so they couldn't really fight back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
