From everyone at Blizzard to you and yours, have a safe and happy holiday season!
To help celebrate the arrival of Greatfather Winter, we've prepared a special Holiday Card Gallery featuring the Blizzard 2010 holiday card you see below as well as a pair of festive StarCraft II and Diablo III greetings. Enjoy!

The holidays are upon us and, as in previous years, we will be AFK to spend it with our friends and family. While we won't be far, we may not be around as much as we usually are. (The moderation elves will still be hard at work over the holidays, however, and will know if you've been naughty or nice.)
We wish each and every one of you a very happy and safe holiday in the meantime, and can't wait to see all of you again in the new year!

I am probably giving in on my break from WoW tomorrow by getting Cataclysm. I just cant stand lotro any longer. 3 months is more than enough of that crap. Sure lotro got one thing WoW do not have - the community. Its just a shame the game itself fails at so many levels. Would be nice to see a game that has a community like lotro and the feeling of "polished" like WoW. I have never played a more "polished" mmo beside WoW. Even at launch with some bugs and glitches it never got close to what i was used to before it.

"The holidays are upon us"
They are? Which holidays? There are holidays year round.
If you mean Christmas, I don't know, just say it.

Happy Holidays is shorter and easier than Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year. And all the other less commonly known holidays. It covers all the holidays that happen this time of year.

They can't say Christmas because they also want to sell to all those Christ haters out there.
But Merry Christmas to all anyway.

At any point in the year some WoW players will be right before, during, or after holidays.
Are we saying Blizzard is even dumbing down the Christmas greeting to make it shorter and eaier? Just like the leveling? :o

I don't get it why folks get so wrapped up over saying Christmas. You're not asking anyone to bleive a thing except recognize the fact the holiday started as a commemoration of someone's birth. This guy named Jesus Christ. I'm not asking you to change your belief's for pity's sake. But you are asking me to change my holiday!
Yeah Blizzard, why not jsut say it? And while you're at it, put a puppy in my mail box!! With a big red bow! And some accessores...like a food dish, bone, a ball to fetch, a blue bow to match my t11 set...
Oh yes! And a pink dragon mount!

Meh its petty either way in my opinion. If you don't say it you're making a big deal over not saying it, and those who want you to say it are making a big deal over the reverse. The holiday means different things to many of us and it is going to mean that thing no matter how you say it.
They could call it Blizzmas if they wanted, wouldn't change a thing to me and I'd say it right back!

Less griping and more celebrating the winter solstice, imho. If you don't placate the sun god, he might not come back next year and it will be winter forever.

But Christmas was "invented" to cover up the pagan celebration of the winter solstice. The bible doesn't tell when exactly Jesus was born, but by the descriptions the bible itself will prove that it was not on Dec 25th.

Happy Holidays refers to Christmas and New Years, since they tend to go together. The term didn't originate as a catch-all for all December celebrations... though that's how it's used now.
