World of Warcraft Duping Bug Found

Over the course of this morning several people have sent me tidbits talking about an exploit on WoW that allows duping of items. Apparently forum posts are being removed on official channels, but there are a few places where you can learn about the exploit and see screenshot evidence. In equally exciting news, my Rogue on Azjol-nerub is probably 2 hours away from 60 and since Blizzard will undoubtedly fix this bug soon, I'll have to finance my epic mount the old fashioned way!

    Gotta love this digital age, where with the stroke of a pen, you can cause information to dissapear forever...

    Now, if you published a book instead...

    All sarcasm aside, are they going after private blogs as well? Or just the fascist ones where they control content?

    Cute Pseudo sig, but there is even more evidence to sugest all muslims are peodophiles, seeing as they all follow the teachings of one.

    Really? "A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate; sodomising the child is OK. If the man penetrates and damages the child then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however, does not count as one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girl's sister. -Ayatollah Khomeini" Above quote from Khomeini's book, Tahrirolvasyleh, vol. 4, Darol Elm, Gom, Iran, 1990, Source: Homa)

    Well based on Blizzard's past track record regarding StarCraft and WarCraft III CD key banning, I have no doubt that the smack stick is going to come down hard on these guys.

    Bad logic - poor study of evidence.

    I did not claim that Mullahs and other self-proclaimed "religious authorities" were not also pederasts.

    I quoted another - who indicated that preponderance of evidence supports one absurd and absolute statement better than another, which is more commonly adhered to.

    The objective in this is not to validate either fallacy, or to endorse preponderance of evidence as a legitimate reasoning tool or instrument of rhetoric. Rather, the aim is to provoke the thoughtful into questioning the means at which they arrive at their biases, and to reveal the bigot, who will cling to his bias, and even demonstrate that predjudice with enthusiasm.

    Freedom as in...

    Linux: stolen goods

    As we all know (but many here try to ignore), it has been proven that the Linux 2.6 kernel contains up to millions of lines of code stolen from OpenServer.

    Also, there is a high level of likelyhood that at least some code of Windows 2000 has found its way into the Linux 2.6 source. Especially the memory manager which magically got a significant boost of microsoft-like performance and quality.

    When will the Linux crowd just stop pretending to respect other people's property and just stealing everything that they want? After all, that's what gnutella is for.

    If you have memepool set as your home page, then it's clear you're already ready to believe anything, regardless of how much sense it makes.

    In re: to the muslim terrorist thing, I am conversant with statistics.

    Should the FAA, or should the FAA not have implemented a policy that said that not more than one muslim may be in the security cordon area (the area they pull people into for extra searches) in an Airport at once?

    They implemented that policy so that muslims wouldn't feel discriminated against.

    However, this had the impact of allowing possible terrorists through undetected (if one was in already, all the others would get a free pass), with the effect that 9/11 happened.

    Read statistics, learn statistics. It's the only way to know knowledge in modern society.

    Did you not read my other responses to this posting? I am not even talking about statistics.

    Statistically, you are more likely to be killed by a McVeigh than an Atta. That factoid is useless in evaluating either risk, or the meaning of my quoted reference.
