dawwnnnn that's so sweet :D blizzard does cares.I honestly feel like /facepalm when I see all the flak that kid has recieved when all he did was ask a REALLY GOOD question that actually made the dev team shut up.the fact that he "spoke like a robot" is nothing to be laughed about, after all we have to consider a multitude of factorsA: he was speaking in front of what had to be THOUSANDS of people live.......B: he was also speaking in what had to be HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people in their homes....... live (no editings taking place)C: he had asperger sindrome.scenic fear is quite common and can make anyone nervous, the fact that he kept his cool and asked the right question, and gave the right answer is reason enough to give him credits.gotta give props to blizzard for not only fixing the mistake by adding Falstad in the council, but by also adding an NPC to pay homage to this kid, the "Wildhammer Fact Checker".all the people who made derrogatory comments against him like the clished "Get a life" or any other worst variation of it are little more than WORMS, worms who feel they have to sate their cravings of superiority and attention, by pickign on someone they deem inferior to them, because they simply feel their own lives are utterly pathetic and mediocre.people like that are the leeches of society, feeding off the misfortune they seek to cause on others.I dunno if that kid is reading this, but I salute you kiddo, keep your head high cuz u just got promoted to internet memetic hero.DO NOT let anyone tell you otherwise.Edit: ohh crap :S I just realizd something, I hope blizzard makes the fact checker unkillable, I mean I raid alliance capitals at least once a month and I don't wanna kill the NPC of this kid. Yep, I like him that much xD.
All I want to know, is how many of you "non nerds" would have the balls to do what he did? How many of you would have stuck to your guns with the confidence that he did when they tried to tell him he was wrong? Red Shirt Guy is awesome. While it may only last for 15 mins, I hope he enjoys his fame.
It looks like the legend of the Red Shirt Guy may live on.
I will honor this man by continuing to wear Red Linen Shirt on every single one of the toons I play.
By the way, here's the guy's Armory
I still think its goddamn hilarious.
