The only bad publicity WoW gets is is when a established and respected player on a mature server decides to quit and tries to convince his friends/guildmates/anyone reading their particular server's forum
True true.

Once again i agree, WoWs death will come at its own hands, implosion or 2.0.

In responds to marketing, the trinkets toys and ploys disconnect people from the world created for you to get away. Example Mister T grenade, how did that enrich the environment of WoW.
