Friend was lamenting to this geek that his World of Warcraft account got permanently banned because of botting. I thought the email from Blizzard was so eloquently worded it should be shared with all as a solemn reminder that you shouldn’t use unauthorized cheat program, also known as a "hack" to provide your character benefits normally not achievable in the World of Warcraft including, but not limited to, increased speed, teleportation, or running through walls/boundaries.
p.s. This geek is not a WoW gamer and doesn’t have a WoW account, just in case you were wondering.
