Redirect to:

World of Warcraft

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

With old history: This is a redirect from a page that was from a historic version of this Wikipedia project.

With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
- If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
- Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
- {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
- When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.

To a related topic: This is a redirect to an article about a similar topic.
- Redirects from related topics are different than redirects from related words, because a related topic is more likely to warrant a full and detailed description in the target article. If this redirect's subject is notable, then also tag it with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.

From a printworthy page title: This is a redirect from a title that would be helpful in a printed or CD/DVD version of Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Printability and Version 1.0 Editorial Team for more information.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

+{{R with old history}}
-'''Tom Chilton''' is the lead game designer (specifically over game systems, game balance[1], character classes, combat, items, pvp, auctions, mail system, and world events[2] ) for the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft under the nickname "Kalgan". He also was the Lead Designer for an Add-on for the MMORPG Ultima Online called Age of Shadows under the nickname "Evocare".
+{{R with possibilities}}
+{{R to related topic}}
-He has been a controversial figure within the player communities of both games for taking a strongly purist attitude towards team-play in favour of attempts to balance classes in 1v1 situations. This is widely seen to have endeared him and fellow designer Jeffrey Kaplan to experienced or 'hardcore' players at the expense of more casual or fun-based players. He has recently come under fire with accusations of favoritism, and cheating, but no hard evidence has been revealed.
+{{Printworthy}}
+}}
-He is widely lauded within the industry for the commercial success of World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade although has frustrated those seeking more radical visions of the future of MMORPGs by focusing the effort of Blizzard's development team on more linear character progression (e.g. increases to the level cap) rather than greater player control.
-Tom Chilton plays a Warrior In the game World of Warcraft Burning Crusade. Some believe that his decision making is biased, and he over powers the warrior class.
-==Personal==
-Tom Chilton is a [[Game Designer]], who has been a key part of the development of [[World of Warcraft]]. Along with Co-Lead [[Jeffrey Kaplan]], he has worked at [[Blizzard Entertainment]] for five years. Tom Chilton plays a warrior, among other classes. He nerfed warlocks in patch 2.3 which made many warlocks hella angry since MS didn't effect the warlock spell "Drain life" even though its not classified as a healing spell. Many accused him of nerfing them for the sake of his warrior.
