World of Warcraft In the Axis of Evil

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the not-talking-about-the-horde dept.

Kotaku is running a piece by Wagner James Au, discussing the place World of Warcraft has in 'The Axis of Evil'. From the article: "Then again, there's little reason to think the ban was enforced much at all. Veteran WoW players tell me they often raid with folks who say they are Coalition troops in Iraq who've cleverly hacked around military firewalls to log in. And while it's doubtful that anyone but Kim Jung-Il and his geek cronies could log into World of Warcraft from North Korea, there's still an embargo on Iran."

    Well logically it would be either level three or level eight. Hopefully level eight, I hear it has way better loot.

    "I can't understand the US attitude to Cuba - can't trade with them but renting space for a naval base is OK"

    That's the only thing about US policy you don't understand? :p
