WoW Blues clues: are Blizz employees staffing player guilds?

Hark! Let loose the long-lost WoW blogger of QJ! And heralding my comeback to MMORPG coverage is the equally hot topic in the World of Warcraft community yesterday. Because in that faithful maintenance day, brave Lilpwny of Chromaggus asked a hundred thousand dollar question: are Blues in player-created Guilds?

Truth be told, they are. Community Managers, aside from Game Masters, have often clued that they do play the game as normal players and have participated in many an instance of raids, PvEs and normal grinds. Eternally burning Nethaera herself had revealed that she played a priest a while back, and this time around she's confirming her membership to a guild:

Yes, we play in guilds. Yes, most people don't realize we're even a Blizz Employee in their guild. Yes, I've been in vent for Raids for things like Kara and Gruul. I haven't for a bit though since we've all been so busy with Comic Con and then BlizzCon, but I'll be getting back to some semblance of 'normal' play again soon. It's pretty much the same for everyone on the team.

Plenty of other personalities play World of Warcraft, including geeky ScreenSaver Leo Laporte and a good slew of developers from Bungie, but running the gauntlet with community personalities at your side is a thrill on its own. They've even expanded to PvP guilds and regular guilds across unnamed realms. But if there's truth not going to be told, it'll be just one thing: identities.

"Nope we can't [reveal our character's names]. I'm sure you can come up with many reasons why we can't," said the candle lit community manager and that's just how things will have to be. More on interesting WoW community buzz as they come a-trollin' by.
