World of Warcraft hack - players got killed

maybe a few of you were also killed
*note* this is not me, just found it on a news site, i don't play wow


official statement from blizzard

can be found here > http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/6794031758#1

and here's a video of the hacker performing it

 

Lol, I love it when these types of things occur in-game. It's always something fun that people can talk about and act like the witnessed.

 

Don't see why someone would get their account banned just to do that, but a good watch.

 

This actually reminds me of that one "plague" that was in vanilla WoW, from a raid boss that could spread. I'll see if I can find the video, it was on quite a few new stations.

 

I was amazed this made it to national news in the UK. I saw some videos from the site the hacker came from and it was some pretty mad shit.

Would imagine that would have caused some epic lag for some people.
