Since we've been cleared by Funcom, be sure to ask any questions you have about RotGS in our forums or in comments, as well, and we will do our best to answer them.
This info became public knowledge before you created the news article.I do not see a reason to visit your site as there are forums here. Maybe you could of worded it better. Just a thought
For example here is a video showing the Character Creation where we can see the classes available, this still not officially being confirmed yet, which is why FC would rather you wouldn't make it sound official.

I work with Funcom on a daily basis. We're the only site I am aware of that has had the NDA lifted. It just so happens that someone asked me what the classes were, so I posted it. Apparently Funcom did the same thing this morning. When you're dealing with 20 stories + and 7 contributors a day on top of everything else, sometimes you post things early, and sometimes, it's late.
As for Rise of the Godslayer, we are permitted to post anything we like, including video and screenshots, as long as we don't write a formal review. In fact, I am working on screenshots now, and a video is being made by another contributor.
While you are correct in the fact that it was already posted, though I had no clue, you clearly just felt like trolling. But, each to their own. No one is forcing you to go to our site, we are merely offering more juicy info on content in an upcoming expansion.

Your lead was from Openedge tweet directing to offical info from Funcom, as you did state from the link. Where do you think he heard about it. Funcom posted before your and yet your positioning is coming across differently again.
Of course you are permitted to post any released screenshots or videos (that have been release). If you think you can post beta screenshots or videos think again, just as an FYI. FC never drops NDA, unless specific permissions for sites allowed.
I didn't feel like trolling at all, just wondering why you post people go to your site to post on the topic, (which is not exclusive in this case).
Let me ask you, would you like it if I created an account at your site and linked back here? Because the way you promoted it was like some big thing and lets be honest, the classes were shown in the Xfire video, and from the release Korean trailer.
Please do not misunderstand there is nothing wrong in linking to your site, just that when you write:
"Since we've been cleared by Funcom, be sure to ask any questions you have about RotGS in our forums or in comments, as well, and we will do our best to answer them."
Sounds like was made out to be something different. You have been cleared by FC to post no NDA breaching material not cleared to answer in depth questions on class choices apart from discuss those choices themselves, right?
Can you see how the positioning is a little misleading? That is just what I felt like commenting on thats all mate. Nothing wrong with talking about the class choices for the khitan race at all, anywhere!
We link to MMORPG all the time. Wouldn't bother us.
As for the tweet, he tweeted us asking for that info, not that it had been posted, so we posted it thinking no one was able to get that info, since he wasn't.
We then found out later in the day that it had been released that morning (apparently he just didn't know where to look).
No hard feelings. I'm pissy at 1 am after working all day
No worries, it is all good. I knew a few press sites are only just coming to the beta and are not bound by the NDA.
