Virtual worlds: WoW vs. GLBTQ preferences

[drscott]

This story (via Boing-Boing) is interesting. I'm not into MMRPGs like World of Warcraft or City of Heroes, but unlike conventional governments based on geographic residence, a virtual community is easy to leave. If an obtuse "government" (moderators of the game) discriminates against me, I can choose another, though at some social cost. I doubt if the WoW owners will continue this policy for long in the face of protests, though.

I can't say I'm surprised, the geniuses at Blizzard must *eventually* realize the absurdity of their position. Methinks, this debate probably boils down to one specific customer service representative(and HIS issues).
