I didn't read it, but I thought this crowd might take interest.

Never met (At least admittedly) an Entrapreneur in WOW yet. Though, and I'm not sure why, but I think of Rhogan as a sad attempt at being one. Thankfully I've never been actually introduced to him, as I'd be likely to poke his little Gnomish Eyeballs out with a [Shiny Dinglehopper]

But I did meet a guy in another MMO who claimed to be filthy rich. And he also said he would buy the game rights and make it better. He also said he was getting married to this French Pop Star Alizee. and that he had huge boats that he was sailing on in those times he wasn't playing the game. And he ran a website that focused on beta testing games... but when he got mad at the one game that he was supposed to buy, he took down his site in defiance. Then he dissapeared.

He was a funny guy.

lol.

I remember a post on Slashdot from CmdrTaco about World of Warcraft GM's making him change his name of "CmdrTaco" because it had Cmdr in it, and that was against policies due to the in-game ranking system.

Found the link! Blizzard Made Me Change My Name

I like this comment:

At least four people present laughed, including my boss."
