Feels like something a wannabe goth kid would do.

Has Blizzard even decided how many there are on Azeroth?

I'm betting they will say "Of course!", but secretly add as many as they need to milk the game for what it's worth.

There were no goths when he was alive. He was the original, but also a wanna be goth.


And also a paranormal investigator with Nikolai Tesla.

As an aside, have you found out who at Blizzard uses this site? Can you tell us without revealing who they post as?

Well since I work here all of CDev Publishing uses the site since I keep rubbing it in their faces. Two of the writers have had accounts here since before I started working and almost everyone's visited it at least once. No one but me (and Occular Fortitude) posts though.

Oh almost everyone uses the fan wikis as a supplement. At least until we get the internal wikis wholly populated. I gotta say you guys have to be much, much more meticulous with your citing. If you could get all the admins and editors to do a scrub and really remove speculation that'd be great. Check and cross-reference every citation for hearsay, too.

Was their answer anything between,

"No!"

"Uh..... no..."

"No..."

"I don't know "

"I don't know!"

"I don't know...."

"Maybe... (No)"

"Maybe"

"Maybe... (Yes)"

"Hey guys, check out the INTERN! LOL! *pours water all over your head and highfives the next guy*"

"Yes.... "

"Yes... (Meaning they don't have a clue)"

"Uh..... yes."

"Yes!"

I'm going to guess you went home soaked that evening.

I still prefer the "Old God - Dragon Aspect" theory. You know, Alexstrasza - Life / Yogg-Saron - Death, Neltharion - Order / C'Thun - Chaos, Ysera - Dream / N'Zoth - Nightmare, etc.

This would be great if they ever made an Old God expansion (like this idea: http://www.scrollsoflore.com/forums/...ad.php?t=18433 I had [Underwater Caverns would be Ruins of I'lalai, it's outdated]).

But whatever, I suspect the classic expansion themes (Old Gods, Nightmare, South Seas, Burning Legion) won't happen, except maybe Burning Legion.
