Roflmao :) that's like the title said ... owned, in this case some kinda selfowned?^^

Ah good old blizzard they seem to be kicking themselves a lot lately.

This proves blizzard knows exactly what they're doing.

imo it's legendary failure.

Like an ad to sell drugs on an anti-drug site. hi-la-ri-ous.

Bwah? It's only a major mistake if people choose to ROFL about how it's such a major mindblowing mistake on messageboards. (Mmmmaliteration, that was) They caught the error and removed the ads, and even issued a statement about it. Mistakes are human; a timely, professional response is optional. If this is the best carrion you're going to find, you may end up starving to death.

I'm hungry now.

For those of us at work, and can't access the site. Can someone post what happened?

there was a mistake with the advertising and a gold selling advert managed to be displayed on the official wow forums. blizzard very quickly removed it and issued a post.

Recently, there was a temporary error with our forum advertisements that caused a gold-selling ad to be displayed. At this time, we have resolved this error. Our stance, which is fully explained in the statement below, remains firmly against the buying or selling of gold, and we may take action against accounts that are involved in these activities.

It's a major mistake because no one reviewed the ad before allowing it on the site. I read a write up somewhere on why this never should have happened given the system they are using, but it did.

P.S. Lighten up and live a little. Even more professional would have been the ability to laugh at ones self. Don't be such a stuffy curmudgeon.

P.S.2: They deserve a little negative abuse right now anyways. Here I sit and stare at my computer waiting for the servers to come up, because they can't get this patch right.

Shut the servers down mid way through naxxramas.
They deserve to be laughed at :P.
