Questions about recruit a friend:

1. Does it require all new Discs and CD keys?

2. Can i Just create an email? Send the RaF key to that email, and dual box without putting in any information?

The way the refer a friend works is you send them a RaF code and then they will have 10 days to play the game for Free at that point if they purchase the game and 2 Months paid game time you will receive the free month and the mount and other things however they have to meet those requirements first


  1. [1]Purchase the Game
    [2]Purchase 2 months paid game time.

RAF must be a new account but that doesn't mean the game has to be a fresh install and you can use a trial version for the first few levels without the need to buy anything.

To get the RAF recruited account past level 20, to accept trades, recieve mail, and remove all the other trial limitations you'll have to upgrade to a full version (which can be done online, without getting physical CDs).

So I was accepted into a guild to raid in as an Arms warrior. First time being DPS since, ummm level 60. Ya last time I DPS was when I protected an Holy Priest in BG's from my guild who was going for R14 (she got it toooo) and ran with another warrior as a dual warrior combo when he was going for it (he got it to) and same process for another warrior and a hunter.

So had to enchant, gem all the spare gear I had saved up when i was actively raiding on my warrior. Configure my bars, keybinds and way of tracking to work well with my UI (heroics helped with this). Still tweaking the UI as a fight. Think I got it perfect. Just one thing I'd like to fix.

In my UI I have my healthframe in the top left corner and I leave it there as I really didn't need to pay attention to that. But as an Arms warrior I need to keep an close eye on my rage bar so when I know to perform various abilites. Anyone know of an addon that I move my ragebar, but not the healthbar and ****? Basically just want a moveable ragebar, without having to worry about a big addon or all my other frames getting messed up. (I use blizzard default).

Basically just a bar to put right next to my classtimer bars to monitor my rage bar more efficently.

Well, I use RothUI for mine, with a number of alterations to better fit my preferences. I like it simply because I can focus on what buttons are off of cooldown, have my health and runic/rage/mana/etc focused around my buttons, and my target in the center, keeping my focus a lot easier than having to looking all over the place. It's a rather big step to change your entire UI, which I can understand.

Perhaps IceHud would be better to your likings? Your health/rage or whatever surround you, allowing you to keep focus easier. You can change the way the bars look too, and it doesn't replace your party frames and everything else either. I believe, haven't tried it though, that you could probably turn off elements you don't want. Though, you're probably want to pay attention to your health just as much. Nothing like getting killed by standing in fire or something... :p

Hope that helps.

Just turn the seals in and move to the next faction. You will keep the Champion titles, plus there are two Champion's Tent quests that overlap the Valiant quests so you can do them more quickly. (Killing scourge and jousting outside the Citadel)

I wasn't aware that you could do Champion and Valiant quests at the same time once you reach Champion with a City. I understand what you mean now.

Blizzard finally emailed me back today confirming my account was compromised and reset my password, but now when I login it says my account is banned.

This account has been permanently closed and will no longer be able to access World of Warcraft.

Good departmental chat there Blizzard :/

Now I need to email them again and it will probably take another week...

Tried going to World of Raids, to check on 3.2 patch progress and was greeted by a Trojan warning from Avast.

I'm not sure what this means, but I know i'll be staying off there for awhile, keyloggers aren't fun. So yeah, warning.

Btw, /wave Holyenforcer, you're in my guild. XD

WoR was streaming live feeds of PTR testing. What could have (and might have) was one of the feeds was compromised and since it was loading on WoR load, you were being prompt'd for that message also. I just checked it and had no prompt'd, but I'll keep an eye on it.

Been working on my UI. Classtimers is a good way to track how long a debuff/buff is going to stay up, but it doesn't do much in alerting me unless I keep glancing at it. So I downloaded TellmeWhen addon which puts 4 buttons (wondering If I can make it bigger), so setting that up and seeing how it goes.

Also got the G5 mouse today, so working on the right senstivity and weight for me as well as adjusting to it. It's thinner than my last mouse.

I'm leveling my hunter to 80, hes near 78 now, maybe I can make the push for 80 today when the servers pop up.

Definitely. Hell, I got 79 to 80 in like... 4 hours? And I'm not much of a power leveler at all.

Make sure you're doing the Argent Tournament dailies if you haven't started already. Also, make sure to do The Oracles quest chain in Sholozar and the Sons of Hodir in Stormpeaks. Long but easy chains. Should boost your level immensely if you haven't done either yet.

Yeah he hit 80 yesterday. Specced him survival since I hear thats the best spec now.

I'm not really liking survival, harder rotation than BM. I'm only pulling out 1800-2K DPS(granted Im not hit capped and decked in greens/blues).

I just got done levelling my Druid through Sholazar Basin in Northrend. Such a beautiful zone my new favourite in the game by far. I'm a really slow casual player I usually spend weeks at each level but I stormed through Sholazar Basin it was so much fun playing in this beautifully vibrant zone that I went through the whole thing in a few hours which is rare for me. I should ding 80 tomorrow.

Okay so my account was hacked, Blizzard agreed it was, said they'd reset it, then closed my account permanently, and now are saying

Greetings,

Following a review of your case, we can confirm that the evidence presented was correct, and that the subsequent action taken was appropriate. Our decision in this matter stands, and will not be overturned.

Please note, it is our policy never to reveal details regarding account investigations, beyond the information given in the original notice mail, for privacy and security reasons.

Okay, no more money from me Blizzard. I'm guessing that means my cd-key is also blocked?

What a **** up that is, you'd of thought they'd document security issues on my file.

Sounds like they are suspecting you sold it, rather than it was hacked - They won't tell you that but I've seen a similar case before.

If that were the case they wouldn't of emailed me a week earlier telling me my account had been compromised.

Greetings,

We have reason to believe that your account has been compromised using a Key Logger or Trojan virus which can be used to obtain the account name and password of World of Warcraft accounts used on that computer.

Clearly a communication break down within security. I even sent them a picture of my cd-key/drivers license.

You obviously have no idea how incompetent and inconsistent the support team is, my friend experienced something similar - His account was compromised, they returned his account but it was banned and they gave a similar response to the one you posted, he was told from a few guild-mates that's their course of action if they suspect trading of the account involving currency.

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      The concern of this article is not getting "hacked". No one is taking over my Google account and anyone that was is far away from self-hosting their passwords. It was about your big tech account of choice deciding to reduce features or getting out of the password manager business altogether. Bitwarden (or say Proton) is professional security company offering opensource solutions. They are going no where and one can easily download or export their passwords to another password manager service regardless. They again also offer self-hosted option. I doubt many people were sold on this solution based on the write up. The author had a number of warnings and caveats themselves. A local, self-managed solution is not for 99% of users.
    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs

      By WaltC · Posted

      I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By WaltC · Posted

      AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.

      AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
