I'll keep you in mind. Someday we might have a website and stuff! :P
I just went over and read the stuff on WOW (I don't play it myself) and I am appalled -- but not surprised -- by the recent developments.
One thing that made me sad were all the comments from people saying "this doesn't affect me, I'll just keep playing." I wouldn't want to keep playing a game that just made it clear that GLBT, women, anyone who was ever stalked online, people who want to keep their gaming personas apart from their work personas, and people who wish to avoid being harassed because of their ethnicity are unwelcome.
Of course, being a woman who has been stalked, perhaps I lack perspective on the matter.
