*** WORLD OF WARCRAFT HACKED HILARIOUSLY10/07/2012 ***

Not just a little, but a lot.

A level 1 priest is flying around laying waste to World of Warcraft cities on various realms.

WoW has been taken offline for about 2+ hours so far while dev's collectively lose their shit.



Apparently someone discovered a bug with which they could nuke bosses in the game and got banned for using it:



Their response was to instantly create characters on all the servers and murder literally anything and everything they found.

In before "nerd" and "lol fuck wow", this is some pretty hilarious shit.

When you consider that at one point during its heyday, WoW/Blizzard raked in something like $60+ a second, the act of forcing every single server offline as an act of protest becomes more than a simple case of griefer being griefy.

sonatine is this true?

The details coming out are fantastic; it looks like basically WoW assumed no one would ever bother to directly modify the data in client memory.

Thats an absolutely incredible mistake to make if its true.

And nobody tried to exploit that for the first 8 years?

That's not something you can patch quickly.
