WoWPals: Not the friends you made in World of Warcraft

by David Hinkle { Jul 6th 2009 at 8:30PM }

When it comes to location-based services for guilds and players of World of Warcraft, Israel might just have what it takes to be the best. A new company there called WoWPals does just that, offering players and guilds tools to locate players around them ... in the real world. We know that's a scary concept, but, trust us, the outside world has some neat stuff in it. Like flowers, clouds, and interpretive dance. Just try to avoid the bears.

Astral Drmz @ Jul 6th 2009 8:46PM

REAL women.

devilsei @ Jul 6th 2009 8:50PM

Wait...
Y-you mean that Belfadin chick named "Hawtness" I've been hanging around with and hitting on isn't a real girl...?
Oh... oh my god! Oh my god! But the pictures?! Oh god!! I... I... oh god!!!! Oh god!! aaaahhh!!

@ devilsei

Welcome to the internet. Where men are men, women are men, and 12 year old girls are FBI agents.

The Dark Wayne @ Jul 6th 2009 9:00PM

and then there's the 16-30 year old attention whores who just love being a girl IRL on an online game, and will lord it over just about everyone

@ The Dark Wayne

Aka, "The Guild Princess"

My ex was like that. Ended up cheating on me with someone she met in the guild. I should have seen it sooner, but....

>.

Sly @ Jul 6th 2009 9:12PM

zerokku, that's the saddest story i've ever read.

R.F.E.F. Red Fury (UltraS Sur) @ Jul 6th 2009 9:22PM

Just log in to PS Home, you'll find alot of "Girls" there.

Zerokku @ Jul 6th 2009 9:23PM

@ Sly

Nah, the girls a total bitch. She ended up cheating on the guy she cheated on me with, so in the end I'm glad I got out of it when I did.

@Zero:
Do gnomes count as 12 yr olds...?
Cause if they do... I'm frackin screwed!!!!

ArchiGamer @ Jul 6th 2009 9:49PM

@ Zero

Sad story but hope you find someone good.

ArchiGamer @ Jul 6th 2009 9:52PM

@ devilsei

Aren't gnome...males?

devilsei @ Jul 6th 2009 10:13PM

you telling me that those female gnomes aren't just FBI, but male FBI?! Oh god...!!!
I was hoping they were at least female agents... god... I'm so unlucky!!!

And I got to agree, that does suck Zero, happy that you at least got out of it when you did, I hope every epic she gained out of that broke and turned into grey vendor trash.

The Dark Wayne @ Jul 6th 2009 10:14PM

im amazed at the frequency I hear stories about "gf slept with guildmaster for phat lewts or just cause she's a slut" My God. I can barely be bothered to go see my IRL friends yet alone some asshole from WoW in another state

ArchiGamer @ Jul 6th 2009 10:18PM

@ devilsei

Its all a grand conspiracy against you. In matter of fact, you'll never know who was that gnome you where talking to....*wink wink*

Sly @ Jul 6th 2009 11:21PM

i didn't mean sad as in boohoo. i meant sad as in pity. if you removed the WoW from your story, then it would be boohoo sad.

Lennoko @ Jul 7th 2009 2:57PM

@sly
Thats kinda mean...even if they did meet through vent D:

Lennoko @ Jul 7th 2009 3:00PM

@Sly
Thats a pretty dick thing to say..even if they did meet over vent.

sony boy @ Jul 6th 2009 8:52PM

You also need to lay off those cheese burgers...

Chin-Paaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! @ Jul 6th 2009 9:07PM

No, if he was living right next door, I would have smelled him by now, if not his apartment/house.

DBuck_Eye @ Jul 6th 2009 9:38PM

Classic South Park.

Araman @ Jul 6th 2009 9:44PM

How can you kill that which has no life?

Ashitaka @ Jul 6th 2009 9:58PM

You... you use the sword of a thousand truths.

*aaaaaahhhhh* (holy tone)

I never noticed before that he has an Okama Gamesphere in the background.

Carlo @ Jul 7th 2009 12:13PM

Holy shit! There is a GameSphere there.

Fancy that...

"Like flowers, clouds, and interpretive dance. Just try to avoid the bears."

I'm pretty sure this is in WoW too

sc00by_y00 @ Jul 6th 2009 10:42PM

Ive worked with people that look exactly like that .. I wonder ..

instead of just wow, what about track any one any game real time while your playing against them. Find out where that annoying 12 yr old lives..
