Well, there you have it. Blood borne disease gets out of control, rampages around and infects and kills tons of people.

I'm surprised the Religious Right isn't up in arms about this yet! It's God's Wrath to those who partake of the sinful Blizzard game!

I tried to get a couple WoW players I know to lead some n00bs into the infected areas.

Honestly, I think it's amazing how it mimicked a real world epidemic, and laughed so hard 'cause of the mass death it caused. People would refuse to go into the cities to try and avoid it.

Wow. I didn't think it would get that bad.

This is not the first plague for Warcraft history. Not the most deadly plague as well.

That's awesome. My guild needs to get high enough to do that instance, then trail the disease back to Ogrimmar. Actually, I like Ogrimmar, we should take it back to UC, if possible.

That is absolutely awesome! Blizz should patch is so it turns anyone infected into a Forsaken after a few days :D

Ewwww! No way! I would hate to be undead. =( Then I would speak dirtspeak and have to hang out in UC and have pieces falling off.

Much, much better to be a big fat cow.

Shouldnt be too hard...set your hearth to UC, fight Hakkar, soon as you get diseased hearth to UC...Be best to use a rogue as a carrier...they can vanish as soon as they get diseased.

Probably really have it out for those of us who play the Masquerade.

I don't know what is worse the miscaracterization of wicca/D&D or the fact that there are a bunch of white christians standing around and burning books. :eek:

Honestly, in Chick's eyes all those who roleplay are probably equally hellbound.

The True History of God's Words

There is not one history of the Bible, but two. One is a history of God preserving His words through His people. The other is of the devil using the Roman Catholic church to pervert God's words through her "scholars." -Snip from site

Nut jobs like Chick are only a few step away from Islamo fasicst. Makes me wonder when they are going to go about trying to bring back the Inquisition.

No, they're not going to bring back the Inqisition because that was the work of Catholic pagan pope worshipers. They'll call it something else.

Oh yes, I forgot that many of these nutjobs consider the Pope to be the antichrist.

when did D&D become a religen?
Shortly after the choice of jedi appeared on the UK's Office of National Statistics polls.

This is more like the Black Death then AIDs considering how it's tranmitted (unless WoW now has the "share needles", "drink blood" and "have sex" features added.... :confused: :D )

Funny as shit though, everyone loves it and it wasn't even a planned world event

Good point. Still, AIDS is more topical. :cool:

And in fact they OUGHT to add those features in. There is nowhere enough drug use and sex in fantasy RPGs.

I haven't played WoW in a while, and my computer lags like hell, but this is too funny to miss!

I've gotta see if my server is affected.

Quite frankly, F.A.T.A.L. fulfills the quota for not only fantasy RPGs, not only RPGs, but all of existance. Now excuse me while I give myself a frontal lobotomy for thinking about that miserable pile of excrement.

It doesn't effect enemy players, only friendlies.
