WoW guild bombs e-funeral


Recommended Posts

ok i dont know if this is old news but :

a horde guild was holding an e funeral for a payer that died in real life at that players favorite location. but they announced the whereabouts of the funeral on a public forum so an alliance guild (serenity now) decided to crash the funeral and slaughter the attendants.

heres a link to the video

Ok. A few things about this.

1) The only people that would be offended by what SN did are the same kind of people that would hold funeral services in a MMORPG.

2) If the guild holding the memorial had half a collective brain, they would have done it mafia-style and posted lookouts at likely entry points to make sure something like this didn't happen. Especially if they're going to hold services in a 'contested area', which I can only take to mean that PvP can take place there.

3) Using Scatman John for the soundtrack? Awesome.

wow....that is the most amazing ######-ish thing i have ever seen done in my entire 17 years i've been a human being. I mean, if i were God, i would instantly smite all the alliance who did that and damn them to hell. I don't even know what to say to that, its just wrong, i mean did they think it would be funny?! because the e-funeral was a nice idea since he must've been a good guild member and some people probobly couldn't go to his real funeral so they help an e-funeral. Wow, i feel really sorry for the people that got killed in that retarded show of ass-ness

In a world where everything is done online its a bit harsh and idiotic to complain when people hold e-funerals and weddings etc and then come on forums such as these and argue with someone across the globe about [insert flamebait topic here]. If you can do it in real life you can more or less do it online.

I think it was a bit shallow to storm it.

Also i might be wrong but am i right in assuming both a horde and alliance member recorded it?

Doesnt that mean that the horde person knew of the raid?

I think you peeps are looking at this the wrong way, this is a role playing game... Horde and ally's are enemies. If I got my sworn enemy that i was at war with its pants down I would take it down. A video game is no place for an e-funeral, if they didnt want to to be attacked they should held it else where in the game or outta the game in a chat room or something. As far as I can see what happened here was what make mmorpgs cool, a real life situation in game turned into a battle doesnt get any cooler.

Actually, the e-funeral, rather, this e-funeral is the worst idea ever. First of all, having an e-funeral for someone who I bet most of the people there don't even know in real life has little or no real meaning. Secondly, holding the funeral in a CONTESTED area was even worse lapse of judement. If they wanted to do a funeral, why not The Barrens? Or Orgrimmar? Or Thunder Bluff? No, having that many red players in the same place at the same time is a PvP battle waiting to happen. I completely agree with what SN did, and I would repeat it.

Wow i completely agree.

Wow, thats amazing how organized that clan was, makes me almost wanna buy WoW for the sheer insanity of that battle.

As for crashing the "e-funeral" meh, funerals are about the LIVING not the dead, sorry to burst any supporters of this bubbles. So yea it was a rather lame idea, especially as stated in "contested" territory.

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
