WoW open beta signups started yesterday. I'll do it when I get home...apparently you have to sign up from the PC you are going to play from.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>yup, because it grabs your specs automatically during the sign up. I just did it</div>

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>i have a feeling i may not get as lucky as the WC3 beta this time around, but of course i submitted, too!</div>

<div style='font: 10pt georgia; text-align: left; '>got mine in.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Nothing I've read about WoW makes me interested in signing up.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Well sign up anyway, that way if you get in, you can just give your info to us, and we'll download the warez version that's already on packetnews.com.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>It's hard for me to imagine Blizzard would actually come up with anything innovative, given their history. Actually, the MMORPG market has been stagant for a pretty long while now because no one really wants to break away from the EQ formula since it works so well.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I think people are too paranoid. Don't they end up accepting hotmail addresses anyway because too many people can't follow directions?</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I signed up but may have no interest to play. :)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>dont you think a simple script would be able to tell if its a hotmail account and not let the applicant progress to the next stage in the process?</div>

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>it does. you can't apply with a hotmail or yahoo addy</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>No Blizzard ended up accepting those accounts because they didn't have a filter to block those. I can't find the post but it's on BNet somewhere.</div>

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>really? I had to use my dads e-mail because it wouldn't let me input my hotmail account and if you try to submit it wihth one it comes up with an error that says you can't use a hotmail or yahoo acount</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>They didn't have a filter the first day or so and a ton of people signed up using hotmail/yahoo accounts. Blizzard allowed those to stay in because they didn't have filters to tell you not to sign up with Yahoo/Hotmail accounts (even though it's stated elsewhere)</div>
