Blizzard Sends Cease and Desist to Grandma’s Vanilla WoW Server for ‘Copyright Infringement’
Blizzard legal team cracks down on grandma’s cozy server, claiming her homemade cookies are too similar to in-game food items.
Granny Smith, a sweet elderly lady from Ohio, thought she found the perfect way to bond with her grandkids—setting up her own Vanilla WoW server in her basement. However, her dreams of family fun were shattered when Blizzard Entertainment sent her a cease and desist letter, claiming that her homemade cookies, which she serves to players during raids, are infringing on their intellectual property.
Blizzard’s legal team argued that Granny Smith’s ‘Molten Core Munchies’ bear a striking resemblance to in-game food items such as Spiced Wolf Meat and Moonberry Juice. They demanded that she shut down her server immediately and cease all cookie production.
Despite protests from players who enjoyed Granny Smith’s warm hospitality and delicious treats, she tearfully complied with Blizzard’s demands. The Vanilla WoW community mourned the loss of a cherished server, now just a distant memory of simpler times.
In response to the controversy, a Blizzard spokesperson stated, ‘While we appreciate Granny Smith’s passion for World of Warcraft, we must protect our intellectual property at all costs. We wish her the best in her future baking endeavors.’
