In a very, very weird and retarded move, Hu Jintao, Chinese president, has imposed a ban on Skeletons in World of Warcraft, in order to

"'purify' the internet of anything that might affect 'national cultural information security' or undermine his attempt to promote a 'harmonious society'. "

The ban has called for a change to add flesh to any bones showing, and has also replaced old players corpses with neat graves.

""These small modifications promote a healthy and harmonious online game environment and will not affect players' enjoyment.""

that's obviously bullshit, since it really takes away from any sort of imersiveness when you're in undead-infected areas like The Pleaguelands and Stratholme.


It's a mystery why they have singled out WoW, since pretty much every MMO has some sort of skeleton warrior.


Hey, what happens to the whole Undead race? they have bone showing at the joints..best not point it out tho, or them Kommies might git that tew.
