http://www.wow.com/2010/08/04/blizzard- ... #continuedFor those of you who haven't seen this lil' article, behold. Everyone knows that Moon Guard has a horrible reputation, because horrible things happen there. And Goldshire is like the terrible black heart that collects and dispenses the smut on that realm.
And apparently, Blizz has had enough. As anyone who's been bold enough can tell, visiting Goldshire on MG isn't far off from what you'd assume to be over-exaggerated stories of open Erotic Role Play, random lewd whispers, and just general ... disgusting behavior. It's also a huge place that many non-RPers cite as what is RPing- Freaky, gross, and wrong. (Seriously- the goldshire inn is RP'd as an Azerothian strip-club)
So Blizz is cracking down on it, and putting an end to the open aspect. To be perfectly honest, I'm imagining an entire division of Blizz employees-in riot gear-sitting around in a special office and just lurking in the town and slapping people upside the head.
Law and Order: Goldshire division.
I mean, yea. Obviously shit's gonna still happean. Blizz hasn't stated they plan on Policing FlagRSP or MRP or any such nonsense, so it's more then likely it'll be used as a way to flag yourself as an ERPer, and list your "do's and donts" as it is already. But at least the random whispers will be cut down and the general open ERP and profanity will be forced to stop.
Opinions on the situation?
