It’s Raining Gnomes, Hallelujah, It’s Raining Gnomes

Posted on July 4, 2007 by Scott Jennings| 17 Comments

Apparently the latest frontier in gold spamming in WoW involves gnomes falling from the sky. I am really not making this up.

I ask that any player that witnesses these to report them strait away. If you feel so inclined, you can also post the realm name, and zone here and I can see what can be done about getting them handled that way. Please, once they are reported, leave the bodies alone, and do not linger around, or huddle near the bodies.

We never believed in the ancient prophecies… like fools we clung to our old hatreds, and fought as we had for generations.

Until the day the sky rained gnomes.

    Teleport-hacking suicidal real money trade advertising gnomes will melt faces in PvP.

    Almost as good as DAoC Enchanters spelling out “QQ” with their mushrooms, but still falls just short.

    “Wow, they’re spelling YouBuyGold.com! I wonder what interesting tidbits await in that corner of the World Wide Web? Let me just fire up Internet Explorer and check it out!”

    This brings new meaning to minimalist advertising.

    Animists use mushrooms, not enchanters…

    “Animists use mushrooms, not enchanters…”

    And I’m very dissapointed in myself for not remembering that 3 years after I stopped playing. Maybe only playing Midgard had something to do with that.

    “Maybe only playing Midgard had something to do with that.”

    Maybe it was too little time spent playing in the frontiers. :)

    I don’t know all the particulars of this teleport hack, but I’m suprised they’d use it for advertising instead of farming bosses.

    Well. I never thought I’d say something like this, but I like what these Spammers have done! It’s funny, creative, and … well, funny.

    Still not buying their gold. But I give them an A for amusement.

    Really creative. It’s even better than some ads on TV. Ads-making people beware of gold farmers.

  • John Arras

    The only solution I can see is to delete all gnomes and ban them from the game. It’s about fucking time.

    My first good laugh of the day, and it’s just 1 minute to midnight. Talk about timing.

  • Sabre_Justice

    Wow. And I thought we were having problems with the Rikti.

    The latest Chicken Little movie was fun to watch. That is all I have to comment on.

    This is a new and distinct form of BlockChat(TM) :-)

    They will always find a way. Does anyone have a video of this?

    It’d be cool if this blog had posts not about RMT. :P

    A lot of drastic measures by the gold community lately. Perhaps it is a sign that their time is becoming shorter! We can only hope.
