Hey anyone in WoW, can you check on Doomhammer Alliance and Horde and see if there are characters named Atmind or Roshamboe running around please?
Bryce got an email about faction changes and now his account password is incorrect.

I'll check, as soon as I can get ON the damned game. Client seems to be down right now, can't connect.
I was able to friend both names on Horde, and not on Alliance. So, I don't think they have been faction changed. At least not yet. I'll try again tomorrow.

Not liking KotOR cause of its DnD rules is legit. I love the games but I hated the DnD rules. Its just one reason that makes DA:O a better game. Anyways, on topic. I checked alliance and have not seen those names. He should call Blizzard maybe and be like "wha dah fuk mang?"I plan on getting Ozaza (Hunter) to 19 then spending the gold to halt her exp gain and start twinking her out and going nuts in WSG. I've never done PvP twinking before. And I kinda wanna wait till Cata to level Hunter just cause of the fact that they are losing their mana in place of focus which I think is neat.

I made a hunter premade in the beta, I took her to Northrend to test her out, and my exact words were HOLY SHIT SHE'S STRONG. Wow. 2k normal damage crits, 4k yellow damage solidly. Geebus. They gave her the pink flamingo as a pet too, awesome.

I'm convinced that Goblin is gonna be the new tarutaru for me. They may be snotty, and money grubbing, but they're adorable. Just look at this face! Can't wait until Cata goes live. I'll prob be on horde a LOT then, working on goblin rogue. I'm still trying to strive to be better at that class anyways. Did some stuff in Mount Hyjal today. Didn't get much done due to bad connection, but it looks like the same old stuff so far, unfortunately. It's not a bad thing though, just more of the same, quest wise. Glad they picked me for Beta... if there's a glitch out there, I'll find it. Dunno how many times I've randomly fell to my death as my premade DK. Leveling the DK for the new content. It's weird being Horde, that's for certain. But, I'm starting to get used to it. I may start working on my DK on Silvermoon again soon as well. I know Blood Elf isn't the perfect race for Death Knight (I'm convinced Orc is) but I really, really like how she looks. If it upsets me badly enough, I can race change later. Also, checked Bryce's names again. Still on Horde.

I heard otherwise about the questing. I saw a video with a dude saying the quests have improved quite a bit and were a lot more memorable. Maybe it depends on the area or something. EDIT>> A video about the healing changes. This is a biggie for me. Luckily he says nothing about healers turning into DPS like we talked about. I'm not sure how I feel about the changes. I never healed in vanilla which is what this is going towards. But the way it goes now I don't have to worry about mana at all. I never run out. If by chance I am running low I send out my Shadow Fiend and I'm topped off on mana almost instantly. So if this makes healers think about their heals before casting them it could add some extra strategy elements to it. We will see.

Hey anyone in WoW, can you check on Doomhammer Alliance and Horde and see if there are characters named Atmind or Roshamboe running around please? Bryce got an email about faction changes and now his account password is incorrect. Yeah I just got two of those emails but they're fake. "Verify character lost" (exact phrasing) and the obvious fake URL should be red warning lights. Ignore them. Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, made our emails public with the Real ID system (even if you don't play anymore, your account name is public now) and so the RMT are all over that shit. Blizzard hasn't really been on anyone's good lists lately. And that includes StarCraft from what I've read. $100 million budget and the game isn't even complete? Total horseshit there.

I looked at the email and determined that the transfer was a fake. However, it does appear Bryce somehow managed to get his account compromised. He hasnt had an active account since December. This makes me not want to ever come back. I know if his account was indeed compromised our 6 tab guild bank was wiped clean. We had TONS of stuff between him, my friend stephenie, and myself.
Oh well.

Loading screen tip says that emails from Blizzard will end in either blizzard.com or battle.net Where did that email come from?
And 6 tabs! That itself must have been expensive.

I only did a few in Mount Hyjal. They were the typical "go kill 6 of these, and oh yeah, 4 of these too." The goblin quests are atypical though. Sure, kill x amount of mobs, but those were very few. One of the ones I got had me kill 20 looters GTA style, which was totally freaking awesome. It was like Tomb Raider! RUN EM OVER!!! Most of the goblin quests were fetch quests, but you have your pimpin' hot rod mount, so it's all good. In Azshara, you get to blow monkies up with "nitro bananas". Wow, that was awesome too. ;D Gonna try Mount Hyjal more today. I also need to figure out my rotation as a level 80 frost DK. The only premade rogues were male. Only male I'll play is a sexy blood elf man, or human. Neither were an option for rogue. I figured the jump between 60 and 80 wouldn't be nearly has strange as the other classes, so I picked DK. I'll be leveling either Tai on Alliance side, or my new premade huntard. Maybe even Paladin or Priest. I made a lot of Alliance premades. More females to choose from. And I still gotta test the new Warlock. Wish they'd fix the damned Barber in Beta already. Tired of my premades looking so... premade. I gotta say I feel blessed being chosen for Beta. Really enjoying it.

I honestly don't expect them to completely get rid of the "kill x amount of y" quests. They work. But having more quests like WotLK or better is expected. Its cool in Wrath cause you have those quests but every single zone also has a story behind it.
Well so much for doing the PvP Twink on Hunter. I was in a WSG que for well over an hour without a single game. I eventually tabbed out and started watching shit on You Tube to keep entertained. And I woulda thought the 19 bracket would be busy since it always seemed such a popular idea. :/

Accounts compromised that haven't been used or accessed in awhile is actually becoming extremely common and they already have a restoration fix for it, they just rollback your account to the day you canceled your subscription. So if he wanted to come back, he needs to email or call blizzard support and they'll do the rest.
That said I still don't see why goldbuying is such a big business in this game that the RMT are so aggressive. It's so easy to make money...

I was gonna twink until I read about that. Twinks get their own brackets, and the wait time is a LOT longer than the others. So bleh. I haven't done PvP in a while. I need to do my weekly WG on Tai for more honor points. Need to do on Nik too, since she's already essentially twinked. Oh yeah. Lemme know if you wanna tear shit up together in WSG, I Rhaselda is level 19 and partially twinked. She's a frost mage, she'll freeze em, you shoot em.

Well the email was not the problem. I love how gmail tells us the source of the email. I determined that it was a hotmail account sending it. The problem is Bryce just wanted to check his account anyway and went to log in only to have it tell him his password is incorrect. Then when he went to reset the password it asked for his email and name. When he filled it out it of course told him that the name was incorrect. So yeah I'm almost positive his account was taken or something.
I honestly don see either of us coming back but I do not want to see anyone playing our accounts and we had so much stuff stored in that guild bank. I know my friend Stephenie (the third and last person in the Happy Fluffy Bunnies guild) is going to go back soon to see all of our hard work gone. I had all six tabs full of crafting stuff and boe armor pieces and stuff. Not to mention however many thousands of gold.
Oh well if it's gone it's gone.

Well that sucks that that happened. I know you had little intention of coming back anyways but at least before this you had the option to come back should you ever change your mind. And now thats gone. All those goodies possibly gone. RE: Twink, Since the whole idea of level 19 twink PvP has been so popular for so long I honestly thought it'd be busy. Even though they do get their own bracket. I spent 10 gold to stop exp gain and now I gotta spend another 10 to turn it on. 20 gold may not be a lot but it is still a waste. Tried some BGs on Raylu tonight. I have a Discipline spec now so healing is kinda fun now. I still prefer killing dudes rather than healing in PvP though. Alliance can't seem to win anything to save its life. I did six or seven random BGs in a row and have yet to win one. I want some Arena points dammit. XD
