    I'll have to see if there's anything interesting to watch over there. If I can hear the players during play as well it could make for some true entertainment.

    Even though several people pointed it out already:



    Thai and Taiwanese are not the same thing dude.

    This comes 1 hour after I type this at Twitter: "It came on like a slow drip. From hoarse throat & denial on Friday to fever, aches & pains today. I would get swine flu when it's not even trending."



    I don't work in a Thailand gaming center, but I was at a sold-out showing of Bruno Friday morning at 12:01 AM and I feel like HELL. I think Fahey has the right idea being a shut-in. This pandemic could still get really ugly . . . especially if nothing's done about it before cold and flu season hits.

    Agreed.



    People taking this lightly, and acting so "holier than thou because it is just media scare" are the morons who are going to go around getting infected and spreading it.



    Dont tread lightly, 100 million did on the Spanish Flu.

    IN all seriousness, just because it is going to spread "regardless", doesnt mean one can take preventative measures, and people as a whole can do so. Dont be so ignorant about it.

    I'm gonna go ahead and make the obvious joke that the 330 pound woman was a pig, thus making her more susceptible, just to get that out of the way. Additionally, talk about viral marketing.

    I should imagine she'd have complications that made her susceptible. To weigh 330 pounds, you'd have to eat like a pig!

    "Those of you who paid $25 to transfer a 55+ character to a friend's server in order to play Death Knights with them before this announcement remain completely screwed."


    How much longer until Blizz drops the monthly pay system and just goes all micro transactions?

    @jowdom: The primary purpose of the fee is there to dissuade people from transferring/name-changing/sex-changing characters willy-nilly. However, if you really want it, you can do it for a reasonable price.

    Oh good, more Death knights :(


    most guilds on my server won't take in Death Knights due to the silly amounts of them.


    I do have one (to my shame) but it's an alt and always will be, my Shadow Priest will always get most of my attention.


    It's a nice idea for joining friends servers, just a shame they don't allow you to create other classes at a higher level so that needed classes are created, rather than just more DPS (obviously they can Tank but unfortunately so few can do it well/want to)

    @Chippo: Don't worry, the numbers will die down a bit once the fad ends. Sadly, the fact that they start at 55 will mean that they will always be a bit more likely to be selected as a person's alt.


    My main is a DK, and it's a great class, especially when it comes to spec design; nothing to be ashamed about there. Yeah, there are a lot of them right now, but it's the flavor of the week, and you shouldn't let that distort your perspective.
