"Hey, raid leader, what happened to Johnny?"
"Oh, he was in a PuG the other day and ninjaed the rare drop mount."
"He get banned?"
"Nah. He somehow ended up on a terrorism watch list and got picked up by the feds. I hear they sent him to Gitmo."

Maybe they hired him for his expertise with that? He may be heading their new spy drone development!

So do they routinely search for guilds named "Secret Terrorist Cell" or something?

I really don't know how you'd distinguish plans to blow up physical buildings from plans to beat a raid. About the only difference might be that raids include "Don't stand in the fire at the final boss."

I'm imagining some kind of scenario where they're posing as some middle eastern guy and looking for others of similar persuasion or something. I mean, in theory it all sounds plausible, it's just hard to think of WoW as the best conduit for terrorism communication. I mean if they were working with Blizzard and had access to their chat logs that's one thing, but if they really were operating independently I'm failing to see how this could be very fruitful.

If this really is the case, the guy either needs to be promoted or fired. I can't decide which.

Their bosses seem to have believed that WoW was totally a reasonable place to communicate secretly when you're a terrorist.

I don't see why not. Terrorism is just the real life equivalent to ganking lowbies because they suck at PvP their own level.

More like level 20s-30s ganking lowbies because they can't even scratch the capped players. Smiley: lol

All world conflicts should be decided in WoW. Training would be less expensive, less intrusive, and we'd probably end up with a better balance of power.

Giant robots, one per nation. Tournament style one on one combat, ultimate prize being leader of Earth for four years until the next tournament.
