Wowwiki isnt the only one anymore

I'm still not sure why people get offended/mad about this. Its a freakin' ad. Would you rather see ads for viagra or buying WoW gold? Does it offend your senses so much that just seeing a Warhammer ad at the top of the page infuriates you?

The only issue I have with it, is that it wasn't automatically blocked by adblock :P

Ya, its a rather tenacious one

Damn, they must be paying them extremely well for that kind of ad on a genuine WoW site that is endorsed by Blizzard...

Maybe they're planning to consolidate servers and figure that the money they get from eBaying the leftovers will cover it.

Some of my friends absolutely love Warhammer, but they started playing WoW again because while they prefer WAR PVP, there just aren't enough people on during prime time. Class and population imbalances were bad enough, but they were willing to play through those. But when there aren't enough people to get a decent "war" going...

I was in a Hobby Shop back in 1999 - where i first learned of "Warhammer" - there were people of all ages playing the miniatures game. First thing that came to my mind was "Warcraft". So I struck up conversation with some of the players - intersted in the game, and mentioned how it reminded me of Warcraft.

They didn't know what I was talking about. I was like "computer game(s)...?". Again, no one had a clue. "Do you even own a computer?!?!". No was the answer I got.

I know this is a small sample - but at the time (this was looooooong after Warcraft had become a major hit, years even), Warhammer fans HAD NO FREAKING CLUE. lol

I've played w40k tabletop in the past, do you know how fricking expensive that is?! It's no surprise they didn't own a computer.
