Maybe he was just messing with you.

Considering he said it was his raiding set, and was wearing it with pride,... I doubt it.

ANYWAY...

I have something I'm pretty proud to show off.. this isn't the epic part of it yet..

The part I'm REALLY proud of is Part 2, because I've learned how to use Adobe After Effects, and it.. it just looks fantastic.. I can't wait to show it off after it's done uploading.

what happens when you get the pride thing? i know i can turn into a gnome but where do i go from here? the quest ends and doesn't lead anywhere.

Once you get the FOS it's over till they release more stuff either before Cata or at Cata launch.

Gotta be 78 to do the final quest(s).

Did you buy one from this guy?

We've got a solid 5-man on the beta but really want a group to clear the raid instances (go go server firsts!).

If it's legit I bet he could make 150-200k this weekend.

Yeah I bought it from him. The thing about beta is character transfers havent worked for about 5 days now so the beta is rather boring until I can get an 80 over there. :p

How exactly did you manage to buy into the beta when the beta is not keys it is accounts? there are NO keys for this beta they simply add it to your account. did you get the guys whole account? if you did that is illegal.

Actually, there are keys - Loads of sites have been doing giveaways.

Yes they do giveaways however, the giveaway they just ask for your email address and they send that to blizzard who attaches that to the account tied to that email address.

Hi,

Beta participation is added to your account through a lottery of sorts and this will only happen if you used the Beta Opt-in option via our Account Management page, or if you have a invite code from a Blizzcon event. Invites are sent our randomly and access to any beta are now done so automatically, no key is ever sent to you via e-mail.

If you have logged into a website linked in that e-mail you received I would recommend you change your account password as soon as possible.

No keys are sent out for Beta participation for Cataclysm.

Read my edited post, it is keys.

Not to mention, Blizzard are very much against posting your account email anywhere - So it sounds pretty implausible that's the way they'd do it.

EDIT: These sites must be fibbing then;

Re: Win a Cataclysm Beta Key!

Where do we input the keycode?

Ignore me, put it in ADD NEW GAMe.

Can definatly confirm the keys work."

That must be code talk for account flagging done by Blizzard!

I'm ready to xfer servers. I play on one of the lowest servers currently and its getting old. Tortheldrin is my current server. I have 1 main and a low lvl alt with loom. So I can xfer the main and the loom easy.

Where should I go? I want somewhere where I can jump in with a top lvl guild and have them run me in heroics and such.

I'm sorry but your chances of being accepted by a top guild and have them run you through everything is probably not going to happen.

Not only that, but what is a top leveling guild anyway? You just need to switch to a balanced server with a decent population and join a leveling guild until you get serious and apply to a raiding guild.

You want a realm that is as close to 1:1 as possible, that would be my suggestion.

Thats what I wanted to say. Just worded it way wrong.

Any suggestions on servers? I was thinking bonechewer.

WoW's economy is driven by the players, you want it balanced, you balance it, I don't think it can sustain the same "structure" for a long time, you'd better off just to avoid the extremes, like on my realm (Hellfire-EU) people screw with the Glyphs all the time, selling them for 99g, and I don't know if people buy, but I see it all the time in weekend morning, and then it drops to normal prices by the time the weekend is over.

Those scam mails really do become more and more professional, I had a hard time telling this apart from a genuine Blizzard email: ( Yeah I'm kidding )

Batlte.net Account:

He said Spirit. 100% I did not misread.

My friend Wain, on another server is the best Shaman I've ever known. Consistently pulls the highest DPS of any Shaman I've ever seen. He used to play on our server.. the man was a BEAST with dps.

He's also the character who I'm modeling my characters Enhancement tree off of.

The best shaman you've ever known is in 251's and not even 12/12 on regular mode either 10 or 25?

    • I've always preferred this possibility. There is something that feels good about the idea that all matter in the universe will eventually come back together and maybe even result in another big bang. The idea that the universe would fizzle out over the eons and forever drift apart is a little depressing. I realize it is not logical to let a basic human desire for life to have a grand everlasting meaning change the way I feel about a scientific theory, but I am human, so that is how I feel :-).
    • Windoze 11 could finally go to hell, instead of making me savor yet another error I've never had. "Bad Pool Caller" or whatever TF cryptic crap0la message it is. Adding salt to injury, it says something along these lines (on the blank black screen after it hard stops): "Your windoze needs to restart. You can restart." NO WAY SHERLOCK. The PEECEE, look, it's *blocked*, I can do jack sh1t with it as it is and you say that it needs to restart? Further, that I can restart? What am I supposed to do, take a herbal bath? Sudo a sandwich? Timewaster pile of useless slop and errors, coded by monkeys and force-fed on us by a pedo-founded corporation, that's all there is to it. Now, let's have a fun weekend trying to handle the error, which after a quick internet check can basically be due to EVERYTHING, from memory faults to drivers to motherboard issues. Thanks M$.
    • Zen Browser 1.21.3b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders.
