Crabby won't leave me alone!

We hope that Crabby will help to make your website experience a lot richer and more compelling. But of course, his presence in the forums is just a small sneak peek of how friendly and helpful and totally non-intrusive that he will be in game for you. With Crabby ever-present for you in game, helpfully appearing on the very top visual level of your interface, you will never feel alone again.

For more information about possibly the greatest user interface addition we've ever made, be sure to check out our blog post: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2110066#blog

I for one totally appreciate Crabby's companionship :-)

While reading this thread and others, it seems there might be some confusion over the release of Crabby. So we just want to clarify that Crabby is in fact a serious new addition to the game. We've spent a long time developing this feature and we're really excited at seeing how well Crabby will enrich your gaming experience.

We hope that his friendly and engaging nature will be even more the case in game, as he playfully displays his useful and informative speech bubbles over other less important UI aspects such as raid frames, buff displays and the like. We truly feel that the addition of Crabby will launch World of Warcraft into an entirely new level of interactive fun, potentially serving to usher in a new and innovative era of compelling entertainment experiences across the gaming industry.
