How do i make a pre-order ? I want to collect from 1 Utama or near the curve if possible.
This package hopefully comes with the DVDs ? And isn't one of those scam, cd keys only. Please kindly advise. Added on October 22, 2008, 1:57 pmI noticed that http://www.pcgame.com.my was listed in the pre-order sites on the website you posted. So does that mean if i pre-order from pcgames, i can collect from the 1 utama authorized collection center ? Also will i be then entitled to participate in the prize draw event ?

Auto's owner told me that I won't have to pre-order, as he will be opening sales on 14th November itself, but as the contest goes, I need a pre order card to win the first horde player to register?
Also, I'm curious as to how the contest organizers are gonna verify if the owner of the account is legitimate or not? I've been using my current WoW account for close to 3 years and seriously, if they're gonna ask for the box and stuff, I think I lost mine when I moved houses, or when I kena flash flood last time. |

Another thing that seriously needs to be looked into. People on the forum reported that when logging into the venue cybercafe, people experience their accounts being temporarily locked for abuse prevention.
Any clarification on this matter ? Don't feel like logging into other peoples pcs, then when i go home and play the problem will follow me as well :/ |

QUOTE(Falk @ Oct 21 2008, 03:43 AM) What? That Autosurf is a terrible place to have an event is my opinion. It has nothing to do with safety or any other retarded irl e-peen waggling. I'm sorry that your job compels you to have a different opinion from mine, but kindly refrain from calling me childish with your broken english. Yeah Yeah your England is very powderful... But Thats exactly how people feel, think before u type. Yes autosurf might be the worse place for the event "Your Opinion" and u wanna know mine?I Think you're childish and "Thats My Opinion" so u can type yours i can't type mine? Anyway Like i say i'm not here to defend or flame you... I'm just here to say that different people have different opinion and i can tell u that Autosurf used to be my 2nd home. Like what SeiAsashi said, if u think that place is a bad place for the event then just don't go. The onwers of Autosurfs or Autosurf players/fans will feel how you feel when suddenly someone show up and just fire you childish. Alright, sorry for my broken english..didn't spend much time in school coz i spend the rest of the time gaming in Autosurf.. Peace out and Falk no offence just my 2cents This post has been edited by Coolduck: Oct 22 2008, 09:45 PM |

Hrm my friend JUST purchased a new account today , and within a few minutes of registering and playing at autosurf he got banned .. now apparently this isn't an isolated incident , and it's already been going on for a couple of years . Now , I've heard that Autosurf uses a proxy that runs through China , leading to these bans , but I'm not too sure . I realise that this ban mostly hits new accounts , but it's been known to hit a couple of existing ones as stated before . No offense but , in light of this , do you really think Autosurf would be the best place for running an event like this ?

It's not really enticing to log on to other pc if this problem occurs. Any solutions ? |

No offense boss , but my friend just kena today . Just registered , doing lvl 1 BE quest , killed couple of mobs then got booted out followed by suspension e-mail . And I have friends who kena there as well over the past couple of years , and some who haven't . Like I said , I'm not sure about the criteria of this bans , some of the people who played there everyday were ok , where else some of them who just go there once in awhile also terkena . Don't get me wrong , I have nothing against Autosurf , but don't you think it would be bad press for the organizers and Autosurf itself if someone happened to be banned during the event ?

they track by IP and domain if Im not mistaken.
I remember last time when I was banned I spoke to the blizzard rep, they told me that if they spot a sudden change of drastic IP that go through some real suspicious proxy, they will impose a ban. They also mentioned that if you want to play it not using your own home connection ( or regular connection use/same ISP) it is better for to inform them I never log my account elsewhere except home |

Actually, these account suspensions are done by automated systems, not by a random GM clicking the 'ban player' box next to your name... This system has already been in place since Classic WoW beta I think. Basically, if you're mid way playing, and someone else logs in your account from another country, the account 'might' get suspended, if you and the other person are doing a 'tug of war' by logging in the account, then chances to get suspended are higher...
Also, this system might have been used on blacklisted IPs, to suspend accounts on random times etc... If you're really careful with account usage etc, there's alot of loopholes for this system you can avoid. Not counting the blacklisted IPs' random bans of course... I helped a friend from australia grind pvp rank 14 2 years ago. |

coolduck the reason why your a/c didnt get banned was because your IP has always been from autosurf. Obviusly you have no head or tails why blizzard bans or suspends wow a/cs. When there is a sudden change in your normal IP range, they will immediately suspend your a/c for 24 hrs for your a/c safety.
Please don't say it won't and does not happen in autosurf anymore. This is not an isolated case. If you play from home a lot i suggest you do not log in at autosurf (or any cafe) that day unless u are willing to get ur a/c suspended for 1 day. This is exactly what happenned to my a/c when i logged in last week (YES THIS HAPPENED LAST WEEK) at autosurf. I logged in for like 5 mins then immediately got disconnected and was unable to log in anymore until the next day at the same time. I do not place any blame on autosurf as i believe it is a built in security net to saveguard your a/c. I am actually relieved that there is such a safety. Im sure a lot of gamers would not enjoy getting their a/c hacked. If you play at autosurf often enough then by all means your a/c should be no problem. But dun simply say its safe to log on at any place when you do not understand the security workings of the game. And I believe only a representative from Autosurf management has the right to issue any statement regarding the safety of their premises both on game and off game. Off course dun worry so much, when its not ur a/c why care. Lol such an irresponsible statement. Can u imagine all the homegamers logging in that day only to get suspended for 24hrs, not being able to start lvling to lvl 80 on their new expac, WILL YOU mr coolduck be responsible for all those gamers that day? I can smell a biased opinion and i will not hesitate to shoot it down. |

This thread is degenerating to a bit of a chicken and egg squabble.
I would strongly suggest to the readers here any question regarding the banning of accounts be raised to Blizzard and AutoSurf directly and not to involve AsiaSoft since AsiaSoft is only organizing the event and has nothing to do whatsoever to do with the banning of your accounts. Also, posting about banning of accounts is a bit tiresome if your intention is to blackmark AutoSurf. You should instead take it up directly with them and Blizzard to resolve it instead of wasting energy and our reading time just for fame or rant about your grievences. If you are not sure how to go about it, can ask for help here but if you're out just to make noise or make AutoSurf or AsiaSoft look bad so that ppl avoid the event, waste of time. Less QQ please. Disclaimer : I do not work for AsiaSoft but I'm getting tired of all the mud slinging towards AutoSurf cybercafe. If you got an issue with it, lodge a formal complaint with them. If it can't be resolved, escalate it to the authorities. |

Correct me if I'm wrong , but the thread title does say WOTLK fiesta activities does it not ? I don't see the harm in letting people know the risk they are taking by participating , and also the risk the organizers are taking by hosting it there . Or would you prefer to see 10 brand new QQ threads/posts the next day about being banned just because they weren't aware of the problem ?

There is already so much risk crossing the road and more ppl die from traffic accidents and heart problems.
The bans : To fix situation now, the onus is still on the account owner to contact AutoSurf and Blizzard for clarification. What can we, the LYN Forum readers, do here for them? We can't do much. Give advice but if the victim doesn't want to reveal much information of what happen and focuses his entire post on QQ-ing about a cybercafe, it's a waste of forum space. Our advice can only do so much. If the victim genuinely doesn't know how to proceed, you can see in the post that he really is seeking for help. Yes, he's upset about the service but at the same time, he is also seeking another person's advice. Spreading the bad service in LYN and indirect hoping that Autosurf either : -improves their service : better to speak to them directly. Strangers here would not help you. If they do, it's one of those rare days with silver lining in the sky. Good for you but could be just pure luck. -they are closed down due to bad publicity : This is a bit of a joke, tbh, if you think that posting in WoW LYN Forums would help. It only works if you get into the main page of LYN. Kopitiam wouldn't be effectively either. Or unless you have a blog with huge readership and you've an established creditability, then maybe... Yes, we all know this is a Marketing Gimmick to boost WoTLK sales but it would be boosted anyway, without this party. When TBC was launched, there were already shortages everywhere in Malaysia and this went on for a few weeks before new stock could come. Hell, there was worldwide shortage. Although, I can think of one way to resolve all this hoo-haa about whether it's safe to play at Autosurf during WoTLK launch. But there is a possibility that the party will not take place if AsiaSoft or AutoSurf decided to cancel because a number of players decided to go for this solution. The solution : Contact Blizz directly for clarification whether AutoSurf is a safe place to play WoW but you'll need the AutoSurf IP. Explain to them the event that is taking place during WoTLK launch date. That is probably the best solution so far. Blizz ban, Blizz can clarify and it's independant from AutoSurf and AsiaSoft. It might not be the answer you're expecting but it's an honest answer. The other solution : Buy a computer and play at home. Pay with installments.
