Did you know?
Due to World of Warcraft's large player base, and international appeal, it has experienced numerous criticisms. One of the most recent of these controversies had to do with Blizzard's treatment of a transgender player when she made a guild for other gay or gay-friendly players.
World of Warcraft has also come under criticism for stories of game addictions to the popular video game. In June of 2005 it was reported that a child had died due to neglect by the World of Warcraft addictions of her parents. In August of that year, the government of the People's Republic of China decided to enforce control over how many hours the country's 20 million gamers can play.
Dr. Maressa Orzack, a clinical psychologist at McLean Hospital in Newton, Massachusetts, was interviewed August 8, 2006 stating that of the 6 million subscribers "I'd say that 40 percent of the players are addicted."
Other common criticisms or problems include lag related issues, hacking, exploits, and some design features.
