Talk:API GetCurrentRegion

Alternative
While  remains unreliable, there is the library LibRealmInfo (WoWI/Curse) that provides lookups of hardcoded, hand-collected data to determine the current region in a reliable way (may fail for new realms added at a later point, so don't forget to check for updates)

Other methods that are unreliable:

 * The CVar  is the value that   returns, so it's the same, possibly incorrect value
 * As this post states, the CVar  no longer works in WoD. (may still 'work' - as in not throwing an error when given to   - if it's in Config.wtf, but will most likely not be changed anymore by the Launcher)
