From a post on National Geography of Azeroth, a forum dedicated to World of Warcrafts, on February 15, 2007. The original poster claimed his uncle worked for The9 (the Chinese distributor of WoW), and he believed World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade v2.0 would be available in Mainland China in a week. However, it was not until months later that the game was updated.
