Strangely, WoW used to not check or care if you had a case-sensitive filesystem on a Mac, which led a few users to end up having to reformat their drive. Luckily, you can do that without losing everything on a Mac.

WoW refuses to run, even if it's on a non-specific partition, because it checks where the OS is running from. Not a great choice, if you ask me, because a friend of mine had to reformat.

I'm not sure why you'd want case-sensitivity, but it probably has its uses. And everything should be set right so that it shouldn't care if it's on a case-sensitive drive or not - that they don't shows a weakness in the game client.

I hate how some of the LUA code is case sensitive and some isn't, personally.
