I understand open beta forms are available, but the www.worldofwarcraft.com site is so swamped I can't even verify it!!!

:shock:

EXCELLENT!

The site was down all weekend so it wouldn't surprise me if they were prepping as best they could for the deluge if this in in-fact open beta time.

Questions I'm trying to get answered ASAP:
1) If you applied for a previous beta, do you need to apply again?
2) If you were in the ST, do you need to apply again?

PS: as of right now (12:52 pm EST), they're offline again :P

If I remember correctly, I read somewhere on the official site that all previous beta testers would need to download the client again but be able to use their old accounts.

I saw the site, but nothing new seemed to be updated.

But, this just can't be right? could it?

No nothing new for me either. Maybe the closed testers were just downloading the new client they are going to use for open.

Nope.

this was an edit.

You are not allowed to edit in the Application Forum though, that what you are talking about?

Perhaps my source was not as credible as first hoped. :(

That'll teach me to believe emails containing notices of open beta, new penis enlarging techniques, and some Nigerian Prince looking to move money out of the country.

Mind you I can't hit http://signup.worldofwarcraft.com/ so maybe there is some truth to the matter.

From the link Gama originally posted:

Downloading the Stress Test Client - Indoflaven on 10/29/04
The client download will now be available to closed beta testers when we announce further details regarding the upcoming stress test here on WorldofWarcraft.com. It will not be available early as we originally indicated in the email we sent yesterday. While our initial plan was to offer the stress test client for download to closed beta testers ahead of time, this is no longer possible due to the extensive maintenance being performed on our servers. We apologize for any confusion this has caused. Please enjoy your weekend!

Look like it is just another Stress Test, Open doesn't seem to have started or they haven't started taking apps either. So confusing...

All I'm getting is a blank shell of a website when i load the main world of warcraft page. Is that what you guys are getting?

I was lucky, I had a window open from a long time ago, that page was refreshing OK, all new instances of IE that I tried to direct to the site were blacking out.

The lucky window crapped out on my a few minutes ago. We are doomed, doomed, the sky is falling.... :)

That's odd, I always get solicitations to reduce my penis to a more manageable size. :?
