"The growth of free social networking websites like Facebook or Twitter can be credited for the exponential rise in the number of so-called SNOW accounts. Where before, virtual worlds were the realm of paid-for subscription-based gaming services like World of Warcraft, the pervasiveness and ease of access of the newcomers means that more people are creating accounts online than ever before."

"While technical issues were a problem for the first few months of retail service, prompt patching and additional world servers have left the game in excellent shape."

My question is: who writes this shit? Someone who doesnt play WoW.
