Forum Post of the Day: Is this against the ToS?

Poster Gnipgnop claims he's taught his pet cat to play World of Warcraft -- and wants to know whether or not this is a violation of the terms of service. Tseric responds to the thread with a cop out answer -- but inquiring minds really want to know! I've chatted with a guildmate recently about teaching a cat to play World of Warcraft, and we feel that a hunter would be the best class. You'd just have to do some heavy keyboard remapping: bind a fourth of the keys to autoshoot, another fourth to pet attack, another fourth to tab targeting, and the rest to assorted directional movements -- combined with some cats' natural fascination with keyboards, and it could work! (Of course, you would have to take over the controls to tame new pets, sell phat lewts, etc.) So, Blizzard, intelligent people everywhere demand an answer -- is it against the terms of service to teach my cat to play?

To answer further, I offer the following piece of advice from Robert Heinlein (among others):
"Never teach a pig to sing: it wastes your time, and it annoys the pig."

No wonder the PUGs I end up in are full of pussies.

And I thought my dog was smart because he can catch a ball in his mouth. I'm totally trying this.

My cat wouldn't want to be a hunter. He's totally picky when it comes to choosing a class. I think he'd be a druid, just so he could play as himself. that's right.
