In case you don't know who Phred Phelps is, he's the scumsucking waste of oxygen who organizes the "We're glad your son is dead" celebrations at the funerals of slain soldiers, further proving that no place or event is sacred to those who like to express their radical political views. Well, that same lack of basic human decency has hit WoW.
On Feb 25th a WoW player from Illidan realm passed away in real life. Members of her current and previous guilds (both horde and alliance) planned in in-game memorial service. Here was the original announcement:
"On Tuesday of February 28th Illidan lost not only a good mage, but a good person. For those who knew her, Fayejin was one of the nicest people you could ever meet. On Tuesday she suffered from a stroke and passed away later that night.I'm making this post basically to inform everyone that might have knew her. Also tomorrow, at 5:30 server time March, 4th. We will have an in game memorial for her so that her friends can pay their respects. We will be having it at the Frostfire Hot Springs in Winterspring,
because she loved to fish in the game ( she liked the sound of the water, it was calming for her ) and she loved snow.If you would like to come show your respects please do. Thanks everyone.
We're planning some cool stuff and we're going to make a video of it to show her family . So
I would appreciate it if nobody comes to mess things up."
They did this by having someone sign on with her character and do a one-last walk past all those who gamed with her, as sort of a last goodbye to the character that she played.Well, thats not how it turned out. Clan "Serenity now" crashed the memorial service with all all-out raid attack, killing all those who attended. (keep in mind most of the attendees were wearing tuxedos, dresses and other non-protective formal attire and did not have any weapons equipped).
Here were some of the tactful comments made the "noble" members of Serenity Now.
"GNOMELAND SECURITY Has Successfully Completed Operation 'Shock and Awe'."
"Jihad upon your memorial"
"Phred Phelps is what we do."
"I was told she loved PVP. Just wanted to honor her."
"btw, she only gave me 19 honor."
"Even in her death, she has contributed to the server by giving us a sweet 19 honor. I would
like to thank her for that."
"Now she has 70 virgins and golden honey"
"I would like to buy her account. Please PM me info. I always wanted to own a dead woman"
"First off I wish I were undead so I could have cannibalized her corpse."
"I've got a video she would like to see!"
....indeed....and a video they made. You can see it here:

Granted, it may not have been smart to hold such a memorial in a contested area of a PvP realm, but that is still no excuse. Both horde and alliance players attended without "accidents". I don't know about you all, but I think Blizz shoudl jump in on this one and have made every one of those attendees count as a dishonorable kill.
Wall.
Online idiots.
Firing squad.
You figure out the rest.
