Guys, I have left WoW for years. I remember I use to have a dwarf character back in the burning crusade days. I wonder if there is still option for current players who is still playing WoW to send me a revival card (something like I get free 7 days to play) to my character so that I can login and check on my character if it is still there without actually committing back to my monthly subscription? If this is possible, my WoW is under my yahoo account XXXXXXX. Hope to try out WoW again.

please censur your email account as it risk your account getting hack asap.
due to you left during bc days thing have change.
we all have merge our wow account to battle.net and use our email as out login id( in order to continue to play)

Thanks for the reminder. And thanks for sending the scroll. I did get the email. It directed me to a wow site and there is a big confirm button. I clicked on confirm. However, all it does is just refresh the page, and the confirm button still lingers there. I went to the account management site ( I already linked my wow account user my email with my starcraft and warcraft account), and it says:

Status

Frozen

Product Level

The Burning Crusade
Standard Edition

World of Warcraft Standard Edition
Region

Americas & Oceania (US)
World of Warcraft Remote

Unsubscribed


When I try login using the game client, it says I have used up my prepaid account. Any idea why I cannot confirm the resurrection?

perhaps the scroll of resurrection (still)only work with people with vanilla account only.
blue should have update it to atleast vanilla and bc account.
they already selling battlechest(vanilla+tbc only)
scroll should also be avaliable for battlechest too.

also radkliler please help lchee censur his email in quote asap please

I do have TBC. My last character reached lvl 62, so that means I have TBC right? Somehow my account is still frozen. What does frozen account means actually? Maybe it is because my account is frozen state, thus cannot receive the scroll of resurrection?

I am downloading a client from a link at my account management. I am not sure this client can play up to what version? TBC, WOTLK, or CATA? It just mentiones WoW v4.0.3.13329. File size just 8.58GB. I am so far 6.78GB of 8.58GB. And already I can start the game even not yet fully download. I tried login but it says I used up my prepaid account. This 8.58GB installer client can play all the way to CATA? I thought just WOTLK alone the game takes up 16GB.

IINM frozen state is just referring to your acc being inactive, as in, no game time has been paid for. I had been away from WoW since early 2009. A friend tossed me a ress scroll and it's all good. I was able to play for the 7 days period w/o any game time purchased.

Damn.. the resurrection scroll does not work for me then. Is it because blizzard server is going through maintenance today? I remember it used to be tuesday they do maintenance. Any problem with the client I am downloading? Is it because it is partially downloading? Or I am getting the wrong client? The file size only 8.58GB seems kinda weird. Too small?

the eventual download is 13=plus gigabyte.

How come my download shows 8.58GB only?

You can try tomorrow. I'm not sure why it is not working for you now.

And besides, with Cata and WotLK to download, you are looking at around 1 day's worth of downloads

Maybe the 8.58GB is because I click the download client link from my account page. WoW recognises I only have until TBC, therefore the installer is smaller? Since I don't have WotLK or Cata, why would I need to download them?

after the 8.58g, there will be more patch to download, downloader will detact and ask you to update more data.

leveling is a breeze now, you be out of outland and head to northren before you even realise it.

you need wotlk for the new death knight class spell's effect, you if you bg or party with them you can see their spell and effect
and not a 4X4 box
you don't have to enter instance travel through portal, you enter instance by a looking for group window/channel

you need cata because azeroth has change forever, orgrimmar is a new maze for the new player, graphic update, etc
barren has split in 2, deathwing kill barren chat.

you can fly in azeroth(with a price)

So ic.. lots of patch to download after the 4.03 patch eh. What is the latest now? Any shop I can buy wotlk box set and cata boxset? I prefer boxset to digital copy.

if u upgrade online on the site u can get 15% discount for both lichking and cata..

Things have changed , you can still enjoy the new cata content . Raiding/Dungeoning , everything else are easier , its pretty good for casual players now !

dang there goes my chance for a penor RaF mount...

Except that this a SoR thing, not a RaF thing

I just hope I can login. When I stopped 3 years back, it was because my account got hacked. Then i request blizzard reactivate my account, but never play back. Just hope to use this resurrect to see if my character is still there. If I still can't, maybe I might go try out the taiwan server. So the client I download for official wow site can be used for taiwan server? Just need to change server address?

Nope.

You have to download the client for WoW Taiwan. Your US client won't be able to access Taiwan servers

U are wrong actually. It is able to play wow Taiwan with US client.

Just need to change the realmlist to US.

Check out this thread for more information - http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1609365

U are correct, pls check link above or link at my signature for my details.

Most of the ppl in our guild using US client to play wowtaiwan.

I suspected that. Back when I was working in Myanmar, there are few servers. All I have to do is just change the realmlist address.

Wht u are talking about is private server.

But ya, changing realmlist can play.

Most apparent example is someone who play wowEurope, change realmlist toplay wowUS, therefore no need for 2 client in 1 PC

Its still illegal , Blizzard ToS does not allow that

private server yes.

Changing realmlist, yes too, but blizzard aware of it and will not enforce it. Its in the blue post.

WOW TOS is like your credit card T&C, it covers alot of things to protect Blizz / Bank. but it still depends to Blizz / Bank whether they want to enforce it or not.

damn.... since like my bnet account got hacked. By just posting up my email address, it got hacked so easily? Now i cannot access even my other games.....

I cannot even recover it. When I try to put my first and last name, it does not recognise as well. Been calling blizzard support hotline, too long wait.... damn....

Try Skype.

Moral of the story: Never reveal your password or your battle.net email address to anyone, even your closest friends

i am surprised. All i shown is just my email address

Yeah, now that they know your email address, all they need is your password.
Nowadays, it's so easy to get hacked.

Have you tried account recovery?

This post has been edited by gaeria84: Jan 26 2011, 11:38 AM

how do they even get my password?

Backdoor/keylogging programmes?
Plus they can send stuff to your email address claiming themselves to be blizzard.

happened to me 7 months back, call blizz through skype, its free...

call only after 10pm malaysia time

dont give out your email to anyone, dont even screenshot it, dont even save it in notepad... you won't believe what spyware you are "feeding" currently, you can use kaspersky / norton / avg / whatever you can think of, its still the same...

They have internet in Burma?

Yeah they do. Slow and they limit access. Cannot access yahoo or hotmail unless by proxy. Lots of hardcore gamers in Myanmar though. Try visit www.vakok.net.

Anyway, I just read the FAQ of scroll of resurrection. One player is only allowed one scroll of resurrection. I checked my account history, I have accepted a resurrection back in 2008. So taht means I can no longer accept it anymore?

I seriously was skeptical about that since they're ruled by a military junta, and you know how totalitarian they can get.

Yeah, common perception of those who have not step foot into that country. It is actually a very beautiful place with really nice people. Only problem is that their junta ruled government is f*cked up.

Anyway, seems like my attempt to religion wow account for trial without committing any payment is futile. I might try out wow Taiwan. Possible to get free trial first over there rite? Gonna head over to that thread. This thread will be closed by end of the week if I join wow Taiwan server by then.
