Blizzard Issues Cease and Desist to WoW Private Server for Naming NPCs After Executives

In a shocking turn of events, Blizzard has sent a cease and desist letter to a WoW private server for naming NPCs after Blizzard executives. The server’s community is in uproar over the decision.

Players on the popular private server ‘NostalgiaCraft’ were left reeling this week after receiving a cease and desist letter from Blizzard Entertainment. The reason? The server had named several in-game NPCs after Blizzard executives, including CEO Bobby Kotick and President J. Allen Brack.

According to sources close to the server, the decision to name the NPCs after executives was meant as a harmless inside joke among the community. However, Blizzard did not see the humor in the situation and swiftly took action to protect their intellectual property.

The news has sparked outrage among players, with many taking to social media to express their frustration. One player tweeted, ‘I can’t believe Blizzard is shutting down our favorite server over a few NPC names. This is ridiculous!’

In response to the backlash, a Blizzard spokesperson issued a statement saying, ‘We take our intellectual property rights very seriously and will not hesitate to protect them. Naming in-game characters after real-life individuals, especially company executives, is not something we can allow.’

As the drama continues to unfold, players on ‘NostalgiaCraft’ are left wondering what the future holds for their beloved private server. Will they be forced to rebrand and remove all references to Blizzard executives? Only time will tell.
