Intentional deception? - Concillian - 09-28-2005

Currently I am unable to log in to WoW. Blizzard has a note on the log in screen as "Breaking News" that they are aware of the issue. It is currently timestamped 7:02 AM.

30 minutes ago, when I first tried to log in, they had the exact same note as "Breaking News", but timestamped 5:14 AM.

Hmm...

So really this could have been going on since midnight and they just update the timestamp every couple hours so people don't think it's a big deal? Something's fishy.

If it was "Breaking News" at 5AM I'm thinking it's not really "Breaking News" at 7AM is it?
