Title: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!" Post by: Train Wreck on September 19, 2005, 09:55:34 AM Wanted poster contest. (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/contests/hitch-wanted)
Quote Greetings, fellow Azerothians. We here at the RPSA bring you news of the direst nature. Criminals, ninja-looters, and raid wipers have been showing up in increased numbers all over the world. It's time someone did something about it, and we charge you, the adventurers of Azeroth, with that task! What we need are talented artists to create Wanted posters depicting their arch nemeses, kodo thieves, two-headed ninja-looters, or any monster or character that has otherwise gotten on their last nerve. This sounds like it could be fun. Who's the first person(s) you would submit? Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!"

Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!" Post by: HaemishM on September 19, 2005, 11:18:49 AM I think my corporate cross-promotion whore-meter just pegged out. The needle just broke with a loud SPROING!
And yes, this will probably backfire on Blizzard long after they cash that fat movie promtion check. Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!"

Considering most of these dorks do it for the attention, I can see many of them now competitng to have their portraits done. Stocks only work in the real world.

Who wouldn't want to have their own poster for singlehanded getting their whole raid wiped?
Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!" Post by: Margalis on September 19, 2005, 10:50:55 PM I would also like to point out that it's impossible to make a wanted poster in a game where one player looks exactly the same as 20 others.

Yeah, that narrows it down. Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!" Post by: Train Wreck on September 21, 2005, 01:50:45 PM Since they're going to be drawn by hand, the artists can pretty much make them look however they want, accenting such features missing in WoW such as stupid, drooling expressions, crossed eyes, and nose picking.
I wonder if somebody's going to do one of Thundertard fame, famous for posting as an alt to defend against accusations of Ninja looting but forgetting to change his "Hi, I'm Thundersword" sig. Title: Re: Blizzard: "Hate Ninja l3wterz? So do we!" Post by: Chenghiz on September 22, 2005, 12:02:27 AM Heh, the sig was THUNDERBLADE!!, which you may still see around the forums these days. Darkspear, my server, has a pretty infamous ninja looter who's the GM of a guild with whom nobody will instance. He's actually conned a couple gold out of a friend of mine, selling mooncloth bags for 2 gold (they run for around 20).
