Hey,

Check your account management, there's a free 7 day pass on at the moment for inactive accounts. You should be able to claim it from your game management page.


Cheers,
Tom

Clown, what is your email address? I need it to send you a scroll. I'll send you a scroll of resurrection ASAP for free days for you.

Berns

Aye think ressi scroll gives 10 days as opposed to the 7
No just to find a date I could play for 10 days with littlest grief from gf :rolleyes:

Sweet, thanks for posting this. Hadn't realised it, and was thinking of coming back, but didnt fancy paying the free. 7 days free sounds perfect.

No worries man.

Hopefully your eligible as I'm not sure how long an account has to be inactive for before it gets given the promo. Hope you got it anyway

Berns

Scroll better deal if been inactive 3months since get another 3 days but need someone to send ya it :rolleyes:

bombs away

Hey,

I havent played since the week before Cata came out. Strange to give up that week of all weeks I knwo but my accoutn got hacked TWICE!! Blizz were terrible to deal with trying to resolve the issue for me so I got peeved off until one day I got it sorted out about 8months ago and still never got back playing it.

Anyway, got 2 questions.
1. Is hacking still rife in the universe?
2. Are there many changes from cata original release to what its like now?

Might I recommend you get a dongle if you're due to return?

Why a dongle? Wouldnt that be slower? i ahve decent broadband as it is and a new comptuer since last played.

psycho_frodo

Hacking has run rampant in the last year so an auth token is a wise investment.

When he says dongle, he doesnt mean a broadband dongle. He mean's an Authenticator (http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&tag=TOKENFAQ&rhtml=true)

or, if you have an android phone, and probably an iphone, there's an app you can get that means you have to generate a unique key via the app to allow you to log in to your account, it's a free alternative!

Ugh I just have to clear this up.

They do not hack you, it's a very different thing.

Your account information is stolen via one of two common methods.
1) A keylogger on your PC. Usually downloaded (without your knowledge) from a variety of sites, most commonly Porn/Gold-Selling sites and some others.
2) Some of the more popular Guild websites are also owned by Gold-selling companies, and if you use the same information (Login name/Password) on those sites as you do for your WoW account login, there is a -chance- they will get your account that way.

That doesn't clear anything up I didn't already know.

HACKING: To gain access to (a computer file or network) illegally or without authorization:

They gained acces to my information illegally and without auth, ergo, hacking.

I used Offgamers.com before to buy a game card.. anybody know of this site being mentioned before in relation to hacking?

yes they got your information, but not through unauthorized access to your pc's files or network, ergo not hacking.

Well technically it actually was unauthorized access, since I didn't give them permission to take, then use, my details. End.

Did I lose that roll? You're making D&D references in your argument and calling me immature...I'm going to walk away now, I make a point of not arguing with people that have trouble reading/understanding definitions

It sort of has to be pointed out that you're slagging him about D&D on a world of warcraft discussion board on the internet.

No, I'm not slagging anyone, I'm highlighting the fact that in my opinion him asking did I lose that roll is more immature than the word stupidity.

And yet you reply...

Listen nobody is on here to give anyone abuse or browbeat anybody (this isn't AH). I had a query, which you initially helped with the suggestion of the Android app, many thanks. Of course I was going to respond what else did you expect when you make a negative connontation on a personal level, refering to 'Stupidity and arguing with stupidity'.

Adam

You're welcome, and initially I was just being pedantic, it's my way, I didn't mean to have a go, I'm a bit of a cnut!
