You can download a free trial of the whole thing, then if you decide to buy a sub you've only paid £8 for the game (every month). Expect WOtLK to take a bout 4-5 months before you get it as a free download though...

ok. I'm gonna use the same surname as my friends account. He has noticed though that if you get referred by a friend, you both get various bonuses for the first three months- triple XP, the ability to summon each other to wherever you are and some other stuff. So we'll probably go that route - get him to recommend me.

I don't understand how people get hooked on this game. I played it for an afternoon and almost died of boredom.
I played on a friend's account for an evening once, while we chatted. She'd been playing for a long time, so she was supposed to be at the more interesting levels.
Still dull. Nothing happened. It didn't even look cool.
Buddy, you don't mention in the OP whether or not you have a wife/girlfriend/family/friends/job/social life that you still wish to keep. If you do, delete the game. Now. Find something that you can play offline which doesn't change from where you left off. You'd be far better off, trust me.
you are so right! i think it's ok to play a game to pass some time, or have a little fun one evening or so, but this is not just a game is a way of life, it consumes every bit of free time and some. i think it is more enjoyable to spend your time out with family and friends than this

I really enjoyed it before TBC becuase it had achievable golas. Now everyone seems ruder than before and are all level 70. I'd like to get to 70 but just cant be bothered!

I've let people use my account on various occasions and woke up guildless with strangers whispering me asking strange questions. The worst case of account sharing was when somebody vendored my prized Zul Gurub skinning knife.
I've done far worse myself when pissed so can't really complain, stupid things like running a brothel at the Inn and acts of extreme generosity like giving away 500g to a stranger. I remember once giving some guys girlfriend the 100g engagement ring and him getting really pissed off about it... hoho!

On a related note, I just came across this film site (via a Warcraft podcast) - sounds quite interesting: Second Skin.

I sent some info off to film maker concerning mmorpg addiction via a PM from these forums. Dunno what became of it.

innit... get to 80 before selling, no-one's gonna wanna buy a lvl 70 even with epics.
i think if i get to 80 within a week of the expansion i could make a tidy sum, especially with some of the extras i have on my account like 25 exalted reputations and a few rare mounts

Its sunny somewhere.
My mate has already booked the time off work. Last time he realised that queuing up at Midnight for 4 hours in HMV to get him the signed copy of the Special Edition, lost him 4 hours of game play. 24hr shifts have already been worked out to level to 80.
I just look on...

depending on how good your gear is and what characters you have you can get between £300 and £1500 for an account. even more if you're one of the first in the world to get legendarys. i think one of the first rogues in the world to get duel glaives sold his account for an amount almost in 5 figures.
