The most common reason people tell you to get out and vote is because its an American Right and our Duty. Others say that if you don't vote you have no right to complain about the results (we know this isn't true because not voting doesn't revoke our right to freedom of speech). Then there are those who say that if you don't vote you are as good as dead because your voice isn't being heard. All of these might be good reasons but I'm going to explain to you the single most important reason why you should vote that almost no one talks about.

Whether or not you are for or against outsourcing, you won't believe what I'm about to tell you. Blizzard has long been opposed to the representatives of the World of Warcraft Labor Union (WOWLU), but this time they have gone too far. The message is clear, labor unions have no place in our work place.

On October 14th, 2008, a day that will live in infamy, Blizzard has intentionally deleted their best selling game, World of Warcraft, and incidentally deleted all of the characters associated with the game.

The only thing that remains the same is your character names, class names, and levels; the entire game has been deleted and remade right before your eyes. Not even David Blaine can get away by charging you $15 a month for this type of magic trick, but Blizzard has pulled it off, undoubtedly making them one of the greatest magicians of all times.

A major calamity has been brewing in the financial market over the past few years. The largest known contributor to the financial crisis was in fact the high demand for people to borrow money to buy WoW Strategy Guides to prepare for Wrath of The Lich King's release in 2008. Prior to this discovery, popular belief was that it was actually the lending practices and housing crisis that was responsible for one of the largest credit freezes in history, but it turns out this was indeed wrong.

The last time Blizzard released an expansion, The Burning Crusade, employers looked around at each other wondering where all their employees went. Some tech companies, who stereotypically have a lot of gamers working for them, had to shut down their businesses the day of.

After making an official statement in May explicitly saying that Honor and Honor Marks would not be reset in the expansion, Blizzard changed their minds and promised to do the exact opposite.

Let's take a look at what type of impact this is going to have. Anyone who spent the last 3 months saving up 75,000 honor and 100 marks of each flavor will be forced to spend them on existing or new honor gear (listed below). Just to get 75,000 honor we're talking 50-100 hours. If you actually managed to cap all the marks that's another story I won't get into. This is roughly equivalent to 5,000 - 10,000 gold, and easily more (of doing dailies, farming primals, doing heroics, etc). All completely gone.

Battle Grounds do not have hisotry of being very even, in the Whirlwind Battle Group Alliance loses Eye of the Storm a lot more often than it wins. When I played on Stormreaver Horde was in a similar position. Several people have been kind enough to share their opinions publicly. Some people believe there are trends about who play Horde opposed to play Alliance:

If you've played World of Warcraft you've surely heard your fair share of Chuck Norris jokes. Whether you were playing in The Barrens as Horde or one of the newbie Alliance zones, someone always starts a Chuck Norris series of facts that goes on for hours. Below is a list of some of the most popular Chuck Norris facts. There is even a World of Warcraft addon for Chuck Norris Facts

-When Chuck Norris falls in water, Chuck Norris doesn’t get wet. Water gets Chuck Norris.

After a lengthy process and a lot of conversation with the Green Bay Packer head coach, it has been decided that Brett Favre will not be joining the Packers for the 2008 season. After quitting his WoW Addiction this past month and coming out of retirement in the NFL, what will this future hall of fame quarterback do next?

While there may not be a Federal Regulator in the World of Warcraft and it may lack a Security and Exchanges Commission to monitor illegal trading activity, the World of Warcraft is inflating at an unacceptable rate leaving the economy in shambles. It is hard to put your gold into anything that will hold it's value and the gold itself devalues at a high rate everyday. The question is, was it intentional? Let's have a look shall we.
