World of Warcraft and GLBT Guilds

Filed in:

Interesting... Blizzard Entertainment, the company that produces the World of Warcraft MMORPG is penalizing players for identifying themselves as gay in the game, saying that they are doing it for the "protection" of gay players:

While we appreciate and understand your point of view, we do feel that the advertisement of a 'GLBT friendly' guild is very likely to result in harassment for players that may not have existed otherwise.

So rather than deal with the people who do the harassing, they're just not letting gay people be openly gay inside the game.
