No More Players for World of Warcraft - For Now

Chris writes "FileFront has broke the news from Blizzard that they are no longer placing their highly popular MMORPG on store shelves, due to the recent server problems reported by Slashdot on Tuesday. Denying rumors that they had asked several stores to pull the game from shelves, Blizzard rep Gil Shrif is quoted as saying: 'We're just being careful not to release additional copies to be sold until we feel the game servers can support additional players.' The online store on Blizzard's website shows the game to be out of stock. No word on whether or not this will affect the Korean release."

How is a comic that looks like it was draw by Cartman and thinks that using every four letter word make up for their lack of drawing/writing skills ever deamed influential?

A lot of people read it but that doesn't make it influential.
