As someone who posted this in the Queue, I appreciate WoW.com investigating. I'm a bit unsure as to what Alex is saying though: did they make the fake video and then screencap it for the forums? Or did they admit it was fake and then decide to make a movie where it looked real? And, if so, for what purpose?

Personally, though, RealID has officially entered what Bill Simmons calls "the Tyson Zone": any screenshot or story, no matter how outrageous, would seem plausible at this point.
