An article from PC World that shows the joys companies have to go through when trying to run a business when the Chinese government is in charge.

It must be great when some stupid political in-fighting can ruin your business and there's absolutely nothing that can be done about it    Blizzard can't take the Chinese government to court if WoW gets shut down, they just have to take it.

Good. Go China!

Maybe in attempt to improve relations with China our government will do the same.

You mean "blocking out their companies from your country" ?

Already done.

Sorry to say this, please forgive me. But

Fuck their Goverment!!!!!!!!

Now Blizzard can finally do things like adding the Panda race to the Horde! As we can see, Blizzard already added them as a Non Combat Pet. Iam tired of this Chiness crap.

I want good games. And iam tired of their government scareing off Potenial bisinesses that could become great MMORPGs. They are making too big of a Deal over Stupid Shit (excuse me again please)

What really ticked me off, was the ban on playing opposite sex avatars. I dont do it, but that seemed like a rule added for nothing, but more drama.

I know it's about a different news article, but it's about the same subject... I'm just wondering why we need half a dozen or more threads discussing the same thing?




Wait a minute, I forgot where I was, never mind...
