Was WOW really written in COBOL?

I hear that WOW is so old it was programmed in COBOL and they’re having a hard time finding programmers who can continue to work on the game. I read an article on Forbes saying that most of the people who are proficient with it are retiring and any systems that rely on it will have to be rewritten entirely.

Do you think it’s time for a new MMO like maybe one based on Starcraft?

Stay away from Forbes, it rots the mind
