official World of Warcraft

Oh, you playing on Eonar? Which side? Losers or winners (if you're playing PVP you'll surely know)? :)

Losers I'm afraid, you?

According to The Associated Press, 23 year old Christopher H. Bouffard accepted $760 in 2008 from at least two people in exchange for WoW accounts. Bouffard then failed to turn over the agreed upon accounts, leading to a police investigation. He has now been charged with two counts of grand theft and one count of scheming to defraud. Bouffard is currently being held in jail until he is able to post a $20,000 bail.

While defrauding people and taking their money isn't anything new, getting busted over it while selling WoW accounts is. From what we understand, the arrest is not for the actual trading and selling of accounts, but for the fraud that went on in the process. The fraud in this case is a criminal matter with very real implications for Mr. Bouffard, whereas the buying and selling of WoW accounts is against the agreed upon Terms of Service, but not against any criminal code.

:laugh: . What a moron.

Not long after BC came out there was a fully epic'd alliance Rogue who was selling his char on eBay. I seem to remember the char sold for a stupid amount like $1000. The buyer thought he got a good deal, until Blizzard banned the account.

So you must be alliance then? Me too, character names Elenny and Elenna.

Alliance always win in Wintergrasp on Eonar. The battlegroup however horde seen to win more of.

I am Horde :)

59... almost to 60 then I can relive BC, and finally get onto trying WOTLK for the first time :)

Yeah I know I can go to outlands at 58, but I'm just trooping through to 60 first.

[dead.cell]

Wooo! My boss (formerly my professor) is going to start playing WoW! He's waiting for the school year to start though so he can play with us. :D

Maybe I can talk him into going through the Recruit-a-Friend so I can get myself some levels and a zevrah!

Oh, and grats on 80, Adam. (Y)

Can't tell you how many people I've played with that have done things like this. 58 -> 60, or 68 -> 70 instead of Northrend. They always end up kicking themselves in the end. :pinch:

Ah the guild was finally able to take down Saurfang last night. No mage loots though :(

Hit 60, back to Outlands for me, not been in ages :D

[Crompee]

well yeah we all knew the pics were fake however the alpha is real that was the reason for the extended maintenance this morning.

PTR/Alpha has nothing do with maintenance, they can take them down and update them whenever they want. So no, extended maintenance wasnt so they could setup the Alpha servers.. as they can set them up whenever they like, as they dont need to schedule them due to it being a live game.

EU armory is the same as it has always been, and the USA one is down for maintenance. What's new?

You can do 3D char from wowhead, have been able to for ages.

Ya I know, but the Blizzard one actually pulls all chacacter details, including hair and facial. Allows you to pose the toon and change the background that can be displayed.

All the details are on MMO Champion

Guild downed Festergut last night, that is an intense fight if people do not watch themselves constantly. I am enjoying ICC so far.

[Slane]

It looks pretty sweet. Love all the informtation it has now.

[lalalawawawa]

EU Armory is down now. They are probably upgrading it. :woot:

Thanks to the help from a level 80 friend I managed to do that 5 part outside quest chain which gives you a good epic Axe, Honed Voidaxe (for Pala)

How do you guys think I'm looking for 65, and any tips? - http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xm...os&cn=Ayres

First time playing Pala :)

Never thought Ayres would be such a popular name, stole it from a band I like and thought it was fitting with "res" being in it to do with a Paladin!

Thanks (Y)

[Shaun N.]

I got 80 on my Paladin on Sunday, I also leveled Retribution - That quest chain is the Outlands arena one, The Axe is also not epic :p

Not even a mention for telling you the quest is there? :(

Thanks buddy, up for some WoW tonight?

It was insane how easily my mate downed everything in that quest. He is still the number #1 hunter on the server. Survival specced.

Took me through two instances as well which I got 2 drops from, 1 okay, a helmet, and the other a shield which would be good for prot, buy by the time I respec prot won't be that great.

Now I need to go run Deadmines twice to up my fecking axe skill....

Oh I also got my gems off him as well :)

[Sethos]

Yeah, just need to go through all the home-from-work late routines like sitting for an hour doing nothing, showering, eating etc. :laugh:

I really want to do 2 levels today, I have this dodgy plan of hitting 60 this weekend - 58 by Sunday and then the last two levels should

take no time in outlands.

But yeah, the quest isn't that hard - Just some elites, so an 80 should have no problems with it. Is a shame about all that gear though, you will be ditching it left and right in a few levels when you hit Northend anyway. :p So I'll be on in an hour and hopefully going crazy - I'm still on the verge of transferring that Death Knight, money isn't a problem, I just don't want to have choices in form of several characters and then I can't decide which one to play etc. but I could always use the lock as a 'part time' alt.

I know but when I done BC back in the day myself I never really got anything good, so it's nice even if short lived to experience it :)

Want some instance runs? I need to get my axe skills up lol.
