This story got reported on a few websites. Apparently a college professor researched online communities by playing an aggressive character in City of Heroes. Kotaku reported it thusly:
Sticking strictly within the game's rules, Myers nevertheless quickly set about making himself unpopular by...doing what the game advertising itself as allowing people to do: create a superhero and battle other superheroes.
I don't think the game ever "advertising" itself, but "advertised."
