CHINESE Gamer Pervs on Night Elf

In a shocking forum post on the World of Warcraft General Discussion forums today, 31 year-old Chinese WoW player Li Cheuk Ho announced that it was his wish to marry his very own World of Warcraft character and commit his life to her. Unlike other parts of the world, video game marriage in China is in accordance with the state's law, having been passed into the legislation by Chairman Mao in his younger years. An unofficial biography of Mao revealed that he became infatuated with Pong during secondary school, but was rather unfond of Tetris because of her Russian ties.

Li Cheuk Ho plays a character named "Lenglui", which is a transliteration of the Chinese meaning "pretty girl". Cheuk Ho's parents considered the announcement to be a fitting celebration of their second anniversary, as Cheuk Ho has been playing with Lenglui since the game's release in China back in June, 2005. "Buddha make this arrange marriage. We so wonderful fortune," Mr and Mrs Ho said tonight to LIER Magazine China correspondent Eric Kwok.

The Chinese communist party has shown much support for the marriage and a spokesperson for the party has issued a public statement stating that there is absolutely no ulterior motive involved. Information from Blizzard Entertainment has indicated that at least 70% of the party members have active accounts on the Mountain King PVP Server (Asia). Chinese political analyst Chou Chun Yin suspects that the communist party is after Cheuk Ho's World of Warcraft gold. The exact amount disclosed by Blizzard Entertainment cannot be shown here for legal purposes.

The couple is set to marry in September this year in one of the country's finest Internet bars in Beijing. Blizzard representative Trent Fairfield said in a press release that the company is very happy Cheuk Ho was able to find love during his World of Warcraft experience and expressed their delight in knowing that Cheuk Ho will continue to renew his subscription for many years to come.
