    Who is WKM?

    Found this while exploring Orgrimmar:



    Anyone got a clue who WKM might be?

    Your thread was caught in the spam filter - it has been saved... although I apologize for the less than timely resolution.

    Anyway, I initially thought it would be http://www.wowpedia.org/Michel_Koiter, but the initials don't fit.

    A GM response was posted on another website: http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/9748/gmresponse.png

    That's interesting... though, as -Dalliah- said, it's probably not a memorial for a person, judging by it's location..

    I'd really like to find out what it means, though.

    Any news on this? I am curious now. Also, you can get there without glitching.

    Probably somone in Blizz entourage who passed away. You know, some cemetary crypt aren't there for people to go in.

    I'd consider this quite unlikely. If someone passed away before they made the new Orgrimmar said person would've probably helped with the development of WotLK. I've read through the entire credits, and the closest match is "Wissam Muhialddin", but that's a WMM.

    Michel Martin Koiter (3 May 1984 – 18 March 2004) was one of Blizzard's premium artists. He was known under the name of "Twincruiser", an artistic collaboration with his twin brother René Koiter.

    He died at the age of 19 of unexpected heart failure.

    There's also Shrine of the Fallen Warrior and an angel named Koiter is visible in front of the Shrine.

    It's not him.

    It is inside one of the rock pillars of Orgrimmar you might fly by alot. Some YouTube videos exist on it, but involves using glitches to get under Orgrimmar, then flying up the inside of the rock to a platform with a candle shrine.

    In any event, can't really say it's a legal spot to visit, most of the glitches to pass walls, get under the world have been fixed .. and could be seen as an exploit ..?

    It's something Blizzard added to have people always around WKM without actually ever knowing it. Perhaps their final tribute. Kind of warming actually, thanks for the thread.
