wow pride!

Gay rights on WoW. This news bit is somewhat surprising. I didn't realize World of Warcraft administrators actually policed language and communications that much (or at all?). Maybe because there IS rampant, juvenile homophobic taunting on the servers.

Gay pride marches are known to have taken place in Warcraft and there are many other guilds in the game that are known to be friendly toward the gay community.

It would be rad to go on a gay pride march with my gnome mage!

Wow. I mean, wow. I had no idea people were actually talking about this stuff. I'm so out of it. Thanks for the links! I might derail my conference presentation on communications and democratic social structures in WoW into a discussion of this uproar.
