Someone put together a nice combination of the World of Warcaft cinematics with the Lorde version of "Everybody Wants To Rule The World".

It's worth keeping in mind that the forum is just one part of our responsibilities as CMs. This article (click on Community Manager / Editor) gives a good insight into our day to day.
In the interests of transparency I’d also like to briefly run through some of the other things we do, besides the forums. This will hopefully give you an idea of our rather varied workload:
Creating/Localising/Publishing of content (Blogs, social media, etc.)
Reviewing and forwarding feedback (from forums, social media, e-mails, fan sites, etc.)
Interaction with players (through digital platforms as well as in person at events – Hellfest for example)
Contests and Giveaways
Planning and execution of events (Launch events, GamesCom, Road to BlizzCon, etc.)
Supporting fan sites, bloggers, streamers, YouTubers, competition and event organisers (Fireside Gatherings, BarCrafts, etc.), pro gamers, cosplayers and other artists – basically all the people who are active in the community.
As you can see, it’s a very varied list of tasks but all of the tasks directly relate to the community as a whole. There’s never really a shortage of work that needs doing.
Although we are reading the forums every day to stay informed about trends, suggestions and feedback, please also keep in mind that the forums are primarily intended as a way for everyone to discuss the game amongst themselves.
Now that being said, I do intend to interact with you as frequently as I can. If you have any questions after reading this, please don't hesitate to ask. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

Spawning, quests, encounters, events holidays and otherwise. Yeah, that general range of things. (craig_amai)
(Normal Hellfire Citadel hotfixes) itch if it doesnt stay easy and then progression is ruined for those that dont want a blow through on normal
The thing is, these changes won't make the actual intended audience "blow through" normal. If you crush Normal, do Heroic. (WatcherDev)
Blizzcon - Wil Wheaton
In case you missed it when it was originally posted, Wil Wheaton is hosting the Blizzcon contests this year!
People complain about the responses they get from Blizzard employees.
Blizz decides to be slightly more hush-hush and people complain still.
Blizzard just can't win.
Is it just me or does anyone else not like Wil Wheaton at all? Makes me a little happy I cant attend Blizzcon this year knowing he will be the host.
Poor choice for the host of Blizzcon IMO

I don't mind him but I can very much see how he can rub people the wrong way
Wil Wheaton? great, now i know wich parts i'll skip on blizzcon atleast.
Ok like the guy above posted what exactly are your issues with him?. Also on the whole Blizz can't win thing it doesn't help half the community treat em like dirt and give whiny responses that don't help with feedback whereas a lot do.

I like him. I really enjoy his TableTop series on YouTube. I mentioned that he was going to be there to some friends of mine and they had the opposite reaction I did so I guess you aren't alone. I'm actually kinda excited because I get to go this year so I have a chance to meet him.
I like him in general. I'm curious, is there a particular reason or he just rubs you the wrong way? (Genuinely asking.)
Just some of the general attitude ive witnessed from him. Ive seen him in person at many conventions I attend and he always "Im better than all of you attitude". Maybe that's just me though. Either way, that with the fact he just played hearthstone and just installed wow and still hasnt played it kinda seems like something you might wanna do long before you decide to host an event. I bought the virtual ticket and i plan on watching it, its just a poor host choice in my opinion. Still far better than Jay Mohr though.
