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, 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.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
