LOL! Real life threats in WoW make me laugh hard. If someone gives me attitude in-game I just tell them to shut the f**k up and if they decide not to I'll start making fun of them in whatever public channel I'm able to at the moment. While this is going on I'm telling my friends in Vent to get into the channel I'm in and give the person hell too. It's quite effective. 
This is 80% of what is wrong with WoW . . .

That's taking the high road, there.

And now the Blizz Team comes up with a Real Life Threat button to match their Real ID feature. Ain't the internet wonderful
This does illustrate precisely why Real ID was and is a real bad idea.

Well the threats are Blizzards fault, everyone getting angst off over the 5 man heroics.

I wouldn't be suprised if you are posting from a halfway house or the like

What's sad is I'm sure Blizzard employees have received threats in the last 6 years.
As have others in game.
What's sadder is the player who thinks they can because they're "anonymous" when they really aren't.

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.
The weapon is only as good as the person wielding it.
Free advice is often worth what you pay for it: nothing.

Two sides to that coin; I can easily see deserved anger at the Devs; people spend their hard earn money and time pouring literally 100's of hours on their toons, gearing them, tweaking their play style to get the most out of them etc... developing an emotional attachment to them. Then the devs come along make changes on a whim, most seemingly unnecessary with an underlying tone of its what is best/easiest for them screw you player adapt or GTFO!
That being said I can see some basement dwellers whom practically live in the game taking that anger a step to far and I am actually amazed none have yet at least none that we know of.

One could say that you are said Dickwad in-game when you act like that.
