This was your post on the thread
Beta Access - Who has it and why?
I dunno why people are so desperate to be in the beta ON THE FIRST WAVE.
There's already thousands crying that the annual pass was a scam, that blizz is fail, that they're not gonna fall for it again next year, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
The initial build is always the worst of them when it comes to bugs, and incomplete stuff. Not to mention that this initial build doesn't even allows access to pandaria, lvls 86 to 90, nor allows the creation of premades yet.
WHAT'S THE HURRY? the beta is gonna last no less than 3 months AT MIN, because at most it can last up to 6. If you got the annual pass you WILL be invited. 100% guaranteed.
This first wave was mostly for friends&family, press, fansite admins, and a few random joes. There's only 4 servers up, as the beta progresses, more servers will open up, more people will be allowed in, and you will have your chance.
Jeez, there's like 3 pages full of threads on the official forums about people whining on not getting in the first wave HAVE SOME DAMN PATIENCE!
So, I've seen a lot of threads with "that blizz is fail, that they're not gonna fall for it again next year, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah." too, i want to get in the beta to help blizzard out to get bugs out, i don't think there is another person like me that loves to report bugs.
Are you sure that the beta is no less than 3 months or 6? and i WILL be invited if i signed to the Annual Pass?

New TF2 update makes the sapper and the engineer build tool have their own unique slots, new items anyone?
Also good night.
More likely there'll be strange versions.

Are you sure that the beta is no less than 3 months or 6?
Take 2 factors into consideration for the answer to that question (the answer is yes btw)
A: All the other betas have lasted 5 months, all of them. I don't see why this would last less.
B: Lets assume for a second that they've advanced WAY MORE this time and thus the beta is shorter, there's still the fact that when a new patch hits the PTR, its ALWAYS there for at least 2 months.
If a patch (Which is nowhere near as complex as a full expansion) can stay in PTR form for 2 months, then a beta for an expansion CAN'T be shorter than 3 months. No way no how. The most shortest duration that thing could have is 3 months, and that's pushing it. I really don't think its gonna be any shorter than the other 5 month betas for TBC, WOTLK, and CATA.
i want to get in the beta to help blizzard out to get bugs out, i don't think there is another person like me that loves to report bugs.
I'll be honest here, my main motivation for participating in the beta is to see the content, since I suck at waiting, HOWEVER, if I did managed to nab an invitation to the beta, I'd reciprocate that invitation by doing what I was invited there to do, which is testing out the content, and reporting all the bugs and glitches in as detailed way as I can.
and i WILL be invited if i signed to the Annual Pass?
yep, you WILL be invited.
Over a million people grabbed the annual pass, they just can't let a million people try to log in at the same time, it would collapse the servers, it would collapse the pre-made creation page, or the character-copy page, it would create chaos.
As it is, there's only 4 servers up at the moment, each can hold a max estimate of about 10000 players, taht's only 40000 players who will manage to get in, and the rest will face QUEUE TIMES FROM HELL.
This whole thing has to be handled by waves, they'll invite 100k people, then another 100k, then another 100k, and so on. (100k is an example number, I don't really know how many invites per wave are sent). As the beta progresses, they'll open up new realms, and allow more people to log at once, but this takes time. Heck, by the end of the cata beta there were at least 2 dozen realms up.
The problem is that:
A: most people don't have patience. The moment they get a delay they trow tantrums like spoiled dotards. Ohh diablo 3 got delayed? ANNUAL PASS WAS A SCAM, THEY JUST WANNA MILK MY MONEY! Ohh I wont get into the beta on the first wave? BLIZZARD SAID IMMIDIET ACCESS THE MOMENT BETA WAS UP (Notice that their actual wording was GUARANTEED, access to the beta when it was up, not that it would be THE MOMENT it was up)
B: most people love to make everything a pissing contest. "Ohhh look at me, I killed ragnaros 4 months before you did, therefore, my achievement is worth more than yours" "Ohh LOok at me, I got in on the first beta, that means I'm a VIP and you're just a plebe who got in due to pity. BOW TO ME PLEBE!"
Its sad to see what gamers are becoming =/

Edit: MyTie do you like
this
sports coverage?
I enjoy most juxtapost humor, however I know so very little about sports that I just get a doe in the headlight look about almost everything. This actually makes caddying, as my job, very funny. About 90% of the time, I just kind of half-pretend to know what people are talking about, and if I know something to be true, I definitely say it. For instance, I know that "Tim Tebow" is a quarterback (whatever that means) for football, and he got acquired by a team in New York. Now if some doodied up golfer is talking football, and is all like "Seattle fullback Reggie McGraw had a great year", I can be like "Yeah, definately! So how do you think Tebow's gonna do in New York?", and I sound like I know football. Then I just nod my head while he talks and then change the subject before he asks me anything. Every day I oblige myself to grab a few sports facts and put them in my pocket for those awkward moments when people wanna talk about that crap. Friggin annoying. Golf itself works this way too. Each course I have some very specialized information on hand that I can dig up and throw out there like a boss, and save myself from looking like a total noob. And, usually the golfer is so bad I can "fudge the details and he won't know because he'll mess up his swing anyway. In the off-chance they do figure out that I made an error, I just blame the yardage book or the wind or some crap. I figure someday I'll know what I'm doing, and until then I'm more like that guy from "Catch me if you Can".
I hate friggin pro sports, and I find it annoying when people talk to me about it. It is less interesting than speculating on the future weather conditions. I'd rather talk about toe nail clippings than if some dude I'll never meet, never know, and never care about catches a ball and runs faster than some other dude. I literally
couldn't
care less. My care is so low, that it has reached absolute zero. The NFL, NBA, NHL, PGA, and all those three letter sports could close up shop and I wouldn't think about it ever again.

What the $%^&?
Ok, this is kinda old news (its from november 26 2011) but still:
Its been a long time since I've had witnessed this much fail in a long time (since the fox "scandal" over mass effect actually)
but there was this moron who actually made a petition to the obama administration to destroy all copies of skyrim, and prosecute everyone who has played it to the full extent of the law.
o_O
I find it laughable because of this bit:
1. To enact an immediate ban on the videogame known as '
SkyRim
' produced by
Blizzard Entertainment
.
2. To seize and destroy all copies already in public hands and erase its presence on the internet.
3. To prosecute the players of 'SkyRim' to the fullest extent of the law.
4. To create a national database of videogame avatars and 'screen names' so that teenagers can be better monitored."
/facepalm.
if you're gonna make an ass out of yourself, at the very least
A: Learn how to spell the game you are trying to kill.
B: Learn who developed it in the first place.
C: Learn that its not an actual online game.
D: Learn that you really need a lobotomy if you can't honestly figure out the first 3 steps by now.
wow.
Edit: Ohh wait :P it was actually part of a spoof website, that makes satiric articles with exagerations.
If the article (Found
here
) is just a parody, then brilliant.
If the guy was serious............ /facepalm.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##
