World of Warcraft has teamed up with PETA and programmed an event this weekend that will allow Alliance players--those are the "good" guys--to defend baby Seals from Horde players--those are the "bad" guys--who are out to crush the skulls of Baby Seals.

Here's what you need to know in order to battle:

* You must be in the WhisperWind realm in order to fight. Visit WorldofWarcraft.com if you need information about how to switch into this realm.
* Once in the WhisperWind realm, go to Northrend, where you will find a zone called Howling Fjord, where the baby seals live on glaciers and boats float in the fjords. This will be the battleground to stop the slaughter. (Note: You must be at least a Level 70 player in order to enter Howling Fjord.)
* The battle will take place on Saturday, April 11, at 1 p.m. EST.

What does all this shit mean? If you don't already know about World of Warcraft or MMORPGs in general, congrats! This probably means you lost your virginity at a healthy age. So here it is in simple, non-nerd terms. There is this huge video game that millions of people pay money each month to play. They are now promoting an anti-sealing agenda in game. Here is how the in-game story goes: The Horde--the bad guys--are trying to defend their right to hunt seals because it is their tradition...sound familiar. While the Alliance--is there to stop them. Keep in mind that the Horde consists of zombies, orcs, cow-beasts, trolls, and homoerotic Anime elves. Yeah, yeah, still lost? Just know this. World of Warcraft is now making media and propaganda history. This is the first time a video game is being used to overtly promote the agenda of an NGO. Is this awesome? Y/N. The answer is Y. And there is plenty of silly ass video to document the whole thing.

This PETA/World of Warcraft crossover news has made me almost happy enough to forget that the EU DESPITE THEIR PROMISES is dragging their ass at banning Seal products like they said they were going to. Meanwhile, the headbashing continues.

P.S. Before we get flamed by a bunch of WOW-nerds, we have to say that when we used to play the game, we played Horde characters. Why? Because being bad guys in imaginary world is cool. Being bad guys in the real world sucks...by the way...Alliance players suck.
