"Wait, what's this?  A mainstream media story that actually -- gasp -- shows the world that playing MMO games together can actually be fun and healthy for relationships?  Thrall be praised, apparently someone at the LA Times gets it.  Yup, Brad and Cynthia Murdock, like millions of other players of this game, play the game together and have a great time doing it.  Of course, near the end of the article, they get back to Mike Akers, a \"self-described recluse\" who plays against his wife's wishes and once made her wait for 10 minutes while in labor so he could defeat an \"end boss,\" but we guess we can look past that -- the headline is about people playing the game in a healthy way, and we need more stories like that. since there are a lot more players like that.Blizzard's Frank Pearce also shows up in the story, and admits that Mages could use a higher damage output at endgame.  No, we're just kidding, this is a story meant for non-players, so he just says that the game has a \"huge social element,\" and a giant community that supports everyone who logs in.  That's you guys!  Take a bow!And not even the LA Times can get Blizzard to give us a Wrath release date -- they try, but Pearce waves them off with an understatement: \"We typically try to avoid launch windows.\"  Blizzard?  Avoiding release dates?  Sounds about right.[via WorldofWar.net]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
