Today sees the release of the expansion of one of the PC's largest games, and by far the largest MMORPG in the world. Wrath of the Lich King includes many new features that will appeal to the avid Warcraft player, including the level cap being raised to 80, an epic battle between the players and the Lich King at the Frozen Throne, and a new playable class known as the Death Knight.The Death Knight is what's known as a Hero class, meaning a player will already have to have a character at level 55 before they can create a Death Knight. When the Death Knight is created, he too will be at 55. Hero classes are classes originally seen in Warcraft III that were deemed too powerful to be included in WoW.

I don't think this is accurate, because I have two canceled accounts (both in good standing) and I've received no such email.
I now spend my subscription money for smaller treats per month, and the time (major reason of quitting) to enjoy the finer side of life. You know, the side with sunlight - where 'humans' are something you touch and talk to, not kill (for the Horde!

Great trailer for Lich King though! That got me interested...and then I saw the screenshots. It's like adventuring in the land of the Smurfs or something.

Actually, it's 11 million active accounts. If you are going to troll at least be educated at your guesses.
World of Warcraft subscribers include individuals who have paid a subscription fee or have an active prepaid card to play World of Warcraft, as well as those who have purchased the game and are within their free month of access. Internet Game Room players who have accessed the game over the last thirty days are also counted as subscribers. The above definition excludes all players under free promotional subscriptions, expired or cancelled subscriptions, and expired prepaid cards. Subscribers in licensees' territories are defined along the same rules.
Any good software company would know not to implement any database or core product changes during the same week as an expansion launch.
It's too bad that this game is polluted with idiots who don't have the strength or willpower to let Blizzard know that this sort of dis-service and lack of customer service won't be tolerated.
I canceled my 3 WotLK CE pre-orders and will be canceling my 3 subscriptions to the game as soon as my current game time runs out. I've had enough of the sub-par "service".
Let's see the Blizzard fan boys come out of the woodwork now and defend the mighty Blizzard like the sheep they are.
...yet...

warhammer is mediocre at best, no shock really since mythic have no clue.
not that wow is all that grand either, but saying warhammer is better is a joke.
