About Me
I'm a Chinese in Hong Kong, and have 2 accounts (one American and one Taiwan region). Most of the time I play in the American account.

I'd like to put information regarding the Taiwan Region into the English only wiki, to clarify the uncertain 'mist' of most of the English players. For example, numbers of those Asian Region exclusive mini-pets. I also like to post in some Chinese forums regarding GW news and facts I found in various believable sources, to clarify the uncertain 'mist' of most of the Chinese players.

Well, a Chinese/English translator can describe what I do here most of the time. ^0^

Confusion in GW's Region (or Territory) regarding China

 * The "Taiwan Region" is actually, offically "Taiwan, Macao and Hong Kong Region". For convenience GW uses the shortform "Taiwan Region" most of the time. The GW officials put these 3 places into the same region because we all use Traditional Chinese characters in communication.


 * Macao and Macau are the same place.


 * In fact, Hong Kong and Macao are part of China (PRC). The relation of Taiwan and China (PRC) is just similar to the North and South Korea -- result of a civil war.


 * The mainland China (PRC) is using Simpified Chinese characters, and GW has it's China (PRC) version in open beta start from March 2007. Most likely there will be a new China region when it goes live.


 * If you don't understand what I'm talking, you can just ignore all the above.


 * If you want to know more details regarding the seems-so-complicated relationships of these places, you can go to check them in wikipedia.org
