Following recent DDoS attacks targeting the WoW Classic Hardcore streamer guild OnlyFangs, Blizzard announced that characters who permanently died during the attacks would be restored. This decision comes after a series of disconnections affected many players during a critical boss fight. Guild leader Sodapoppin initially believed restoration was highly unlikely; however, Blizzard acknowledged the intentional malice behind the attacks as a factor warranting this exception. Blizzard maintains its policy regarding other forms of character deaths, but will take action in response to severe mass events like this one in the future.
Due to the recent DDoS attacks targeting the WoW Classic Hardcore streamer guild OnlyFangs, Blizzard has decided to restore characters that died as a result.
Blizzard recognized that the attacks were an "intentionally malicious effort made by third-party bad actors," justifying the restoration of characters for the affected players.
Guild leader Sodapoppin expressed concerns over the future of OnlyFangs, stating that the attacks made it difficult for the guild to continue unless characters were restored.
Blizzard's production director Clay Stone outlined that while they will restore characters from malicious DDoS events, the policy for other character deaths remains unchanged.
