Don't listen to this shit..
DO WE NOT ALL REMEMBER THE ORIGINAL MEMORIAL "ruined", way back when?
You know you do. That didn't "disgrace" the memory, in fact I thought it was a GREAT idea. Some thought it was "dick-ish" SURE!. I mean that, I can understand that.
But to ME, that's what WoW is all about no? I got into for the WAR. And warring sides, bashing eachother? What better way>?!
PLEASE GUYS!.. If I die, and you all hear about it some how, I want you ALL to grab as many players as you can, meet up somewhere and beat TF out of each other.
I would fuckin' LOVE that! Would really get the feels pumpin'.

The part that I don't get is you acknowledge I'm "the guy" on a forum, but become a fictional conversation with "Mindark the Human Paladin" if the medium were on WoW. I don't stop being me on WoW, and you don't stop being you on WoW. We don't suddenly roleplay by logging in.
We absolutely fucking do fucking role play. MMORPG. Because I wouldn't kill you IRL, but I wouldn't think twice about putting in the grave in WoW. In fact I would love doing it, tbag, flag of ownership, 2-3 corpse camps... the whole 9 yards. Not to the extent of griefing of course. But just enough to make you think twice about playing on a PvP realm.
Here is YOUR reality check... its a GAME!

We CAN roleplay. There's a distinction.
I've played on a PVP realm for the majority of my time on WoW. Some of my finest moments have been PVP related. But...if you would camp me for the sole purpose of to "make me think twice about playing on a PVP realm," then that is both griefing and self-defeating. If nobody played on the PVP realm with you, who would you PVP with?
If you think people thinking MoP and Cataclysm were crap is just the people surrounding me then you were not around on these forums or the official forums. Again likes and views does not equate into acceptance by the over all community.
I have never said engaging in PvP was automatically griefing. The reason for why are doing it is a determining factor in if its grieving. I have not interpreted the ToS to fit my argument. I posted two posts that referenced people being given infractions for PvPing in a manner that was considered griefing. The enforcement of the ToS over the years supports my argument.Once again, engaging in PvP, on PvP server is not in and of itself "griefing" regardless of reason for engaging in said activity. You're interpreting the ToS to fit YOUR argument, and they have NEVER been applied that way.
That when you do a PvP action just to grief the other party you are crossing the line. If you are doing it to participate in PvP you are not. Just because someone says you are greifing does not necessary mean you are which is why intent and reasons play a part in it. According to you the intent and reasons for doing the action don't play a part in it being grief or not.
If it has never been applied in the manner I am suggesting then why does google provide dozens of responses asking that very question?

Game... not a social medium. Nuff said. Hold your memorial. @gaymer77 PM me with details, happy to be part of the killing squad.
If you don't want your memorial to turn into a PvP-fest, stay out of contested areas. It's as simple as that. Hold your memorial in SW, IF, or any of the starting areas and you are safe.

THEY ARE HOLDING IT IN SW. From the OP - "They stated the date & time in their post along with where in SW they will meet up and end up inside of SW."
Read the fucking thread, people. You act all tough and you're just a bunch of wimps who grief people who would put you in the hospital if you did this shit in real life.
Neither does the "tone" on the forums. Or is this your first time hearing the term "vocal minority"?
You absolutely are interpreting the ToS to fit your argument. Because they have NEVER been enforced in the method you are describing. I was actually one of those horde members there that day... and it was one of the more fun/memorable experiences I've had in the game. I remember the outcry by fellow guildies and horde to have these "griefers" banned. Blizzard did not take ANY action on any player that day or the days following.
So Blizzard has ALREADY weighed in on the topic, and deemed it acceptable conduct for this game. End of story.

You can still crash real world gatherings. People have crashed funerals before. Of course they wouldn't be killing people in real life just to wreck the event. Seriously why even bring up such a ridiculous argument? You have never made that point until now and it is utterly stupid.
No. Simply holding it in a fantasy world does not make it role play. I can talk about the Detroit lions game in WoW. That doesn't mean I am role playing that the Detroit Lions exist in Azeroth and that all of the other NFL teams do as well. And again if it isn't about role playing why do you keep bringing role playing into this?By taking the event INTO a fantasy world there is a certain amount of RP involved. You are playing a part, acting out your feelings... through your character, in a world that has OTHER dangers and as such certain considerations need to be made. YOU guys got hung up on the word(s) "RP" if there is a better word for it... totally open to it. But you're still acting/playing a game.
