What if we could get a REAL Blizzard employee to visit us here at Wc3c?

Hey, this is a though that just popped into my mind;

What if we could get a blizzard employee to visit us, like Kat, GFRazier etc etc?
That would be kinda cool, don't you think, and we could hear Blizzards opinion about our works, how cool wouldn't it be if Kat wrote a comment on your project?

EDIT: Oh, bugger, shouldn't this go in Off Topic forum?

What makes you think Blizzard employees dont visit here?

Apparently they stalk Project ROR and steal all their ideas.

It would be nice if blizzard was a bit more involved with modding. Why can't they do it? Valve did it with counter strike so why now advertising people so interrested in their game that they make a new one out of it? Im pretty sure GF visited the site a little bit.

Blizzard sometimes lurks various fansites. However, if your an official blizzard fan site I think they lurk more and you get more oppurtunities from the bilzzard staff such as interviews.

Could be, but I don't think hang out much at fansites. Official or not. Perhaps they show up once in a while, but they don't let anyone notice on the forum. Probably...

Anyway, I sometimes take a look at Blizzard's forum, and (I do not enjoy it there :P) well, those blizzard workers (Well, Kat and GF are pretty much all I've seen :P) seem like a good amount of people. So if they would show up here, it would be funny, not something I would look forward to or anything though...

I think they stalk all mod teams. One of the WoW magic weapons has the name of an Ominous Horizons hero name, according to Runemane.

Once I got an email from some guy at blizzard. I sent him a corrected Militia model (the hair alpha channel on his helmet) and he replied saying:

"(...)You did a nice job
fixing the model though and I want to say that war3campaigns is a great website!"

also

"(...) We've seen some very polished and fun conversions for our
games, and have no problems with total conversions so long as they are for
personal use and do not infringe our End User License Agreement included in our
games, nor the rights of any other parties including copyrights, trademarks or
other rights."



Also, how would they add a TD and a AoS type map in the warcraft campaign if they didn't lurk in those kind of sites?

To see about the TD and AOS, they can just see it floating around on Battle.net all the time. There is no need to go for a site for that.

Nice to hear something like that though...

Blizzard visits the fansites on occasion. They go to them just to make sure they're keeping with with the rules in the EULA and such.

why is there an emphasis on "real" in the tital, has there been someone impersonateing a blizzard employee wandering around recently or something?
