This Means Warcraft!
Mark Rasch, 2006-04-03

A recent World of Warcraft case involved a WoW book by Brian Knopp that was being sold on eBay. It resulted in automated takedown notices by "lawyerbots" and shows how the legal process today can end up silencing legitimate uses of trademarks and copyrights.

Anybody know where to get a copy of his guide off bit torrent or something? Just cause that would crack me up. I don't even play the game. i beleive ti's actually pretty stupid to pay a monthly fee to play a game. I'll just stick to counter-strike if I wanna play some humans and Oblivion or Morrowind if your system sucks when I want to play a "Massive" RPG.
