Well, it's true that when Blizz says it's false, it's false. However, there are telling signs of when something is false as well.

[Nikentic]

Why would it be true that when Blizz says it's false, it actually is false? Of course they would like to cover this up, but there is a possibility that this document is legit.

[longbeards]

When did Blizzard say the leak was false? Surely you fellows dont think that MMOC is Blizzard?

[Unholyshaman]

Nikentic, longbeards, what on earth are you two rambling on about?@Nikentic, no one said it would be true if Blizzard said it was false.@longbeards, no one is confusing MMO-Champion with Blizzard.WoWInsider's internal Blizzars source has confirmed that it is fake. But regardless of whether or not it's fake, it's still a damn good read and a great new post.And hey, if there is enough support for a certain idea mentioned in the 'leak', then perhaps Blizzard might in the end consider implementing it.

Sorry, I didnt know about WoWInsider saying this. That is the first time I even heard of that. It wasnt even mentioned in any of the above posts. Sorry!

You honestly think Blizzard will change lore thats already been decided upon, and possibly already been worked on, just because of this leak? Thats a bit silly and far fetched. Fans are in for the ride, Blizzard design the rides. They will add mechanics, but I strongly doubt they will change all their plans based on a false leak. Im not saying this is false, it does smell fishy, just curious?

@unholyshaman but... Wow insider's "special super smart inside sources" are just what ever has been on mmo-champion for 3 or more hours, and i have to say, we all know it both mmo-c and wow.j will bend over if blizzard tells em, we know this from the alpha leaks they dropped off after keeping up for 2 hours. I am not saying these ARE true either, they're just as liable to be fake. I'm happy to read fake news and speculate/try and promote ideas. I take it all with a grain of salt, but the same goes for anything either of those places says. let's just see what is to come and enjoy what we can while we can, nothing wrong with "fan fiction" after all :P

EDIT:
@longbeards errr... aside for the naga thing (which would be retcon) there is no "changing lore" in what has been listed so far.... it all fits in pretty well atm actually

Actually, WoWinsider does have a former Blizzard employee that works for them and you can also visit the previous news thread as to why the document is fake.

[ZOMG]

This is either a REALLY elaborate and well worded hoax, or the real thing.

... please michael saco is hardly a secret source, considering adam holisky wrote the article,"highly vetted sources" come on really? what highly vetted source is this? these guys have never posted anything original, the only thing wow-insider is worth it for is to read some of the class articles, SOME of them. Wowinsider is nothing but an arrogant fanboy service. MMO-c has more credibility, but even then... nobody has proof one way or the other, these are either fake or true, and until -blizzard- says either way, nobody has any proof either way. And activision wont turn down free publicity from a hoax if this is the case, nor will they up right say it's true.

Err not really, that's not the only lore screw up, because we were told that K'aresh was consumed by the Void, and all the Ethereals who had escaped were already on Azeroth/Outland.so there you have it, I still say this is fake. People are just hungry for any scoop of news and thus will take anything trown their way.

...........The current state of K'aresh is unknown. all we know is it was CONTROLLED by the void lord dimensius(whom we killed in netherstorm, which doesn't mean the planet isn't inhabited by other portions of the void), it fits to lore to help ethereals take it back if our main enemy where the void... hit me with another "lore breaker" thanks..

i really do have to say, how many people though cataclysm was fake? Deathwing was unlikely as hell, I'd rather blizz take a non-linear approach to who comes next than follow a chain

[ZOMG]

I'm going out on a limb, and publicly stating I actually think this is legit. It's too well worded and formatted to be a hoax. If it IS a hoax, props to you for putting in the time and effort on this one.

besides the starting paragraph, the rest of the content sounds very possible as well, I did take it as real the first time I looked at it

[Jeremiah]

The matter of fact is that Boub can't even totally disprove it. WoW Insider's "source" isn't even 100% on it. Until an official announcement from Blizz, we can't take it as fake -or- true.
