World of Warcraft free until September 26th

[arandomuser]

Looks like it happened, WoW went F2P.

Well to be honest they should do 1 of 2 if they want to expand the game
Make it free and charge to buy the expanison, kida similiar to gw where you buy the game but dont pay sub fee but have stupid cosmetic microtransations which we already have in a SUB GAME
OR CHarge the sub feee, but make ALL expansions free, someone on a sub 4 months pays for an expansion and alot more people will sub who dont have 60 bucks to pay right off the bat.

Check your computers folks leave it on all night and scan em

I have to question how many files you have if you have to scan all night :P

But yeah, it's definitely a fake link. (At least I would believe so, so far)

[Shampro]

Would be wise to do so, this is def not true, seems like.

[Moonky]

You guys are idiots, why do you think it's fake when it's a Blizzard url?

It's legit.

You must be easy to scam, lots of fake URL's use ''blizzard'' as thier adress. Blizzard doesn't even use them officially on thier site anymore, it's Battle.net most of the time.

Blizzard is an HTTPS link, not sure 100% what the http means, but I know the "S" marks secure sites.

This link is just an HTTP link.

Sent a msg to an admin with a link to this hope it gets looked at or taken down.

[peedei]

I actually re-installed, to think Blizzard is capable of such good deeds. There's always that sliver of hope that Blizzard will return to their former glory but who am I kidding.

False link? Bloody hell. Doesn't surprise me, not like Blizzard would be quite so generous.

[Hellravager]

And they went offline T-T

Well night all >.> dont let the viruses attack

[Time Sage]

http://media.blizzard.com/emails/lc614/header.jpg This is a URL from a valid Email Image. IT's nearly identical. The link is real.

[Gonder]

I really hope no one clicked on the link from that page. As always verify on bnet first, if it's not there, either EU or NA, it's bogus.

Will definitely not be so malleable next time something like this happens.

[Asuras]

Why did I have to click the link T_T

[Moonky]

It is real, but I would assume it's the email some people got in their recent promotion wave.

Either that or we're set for an announcement of it this week sometime.

Why did I have to click the link T_T

Nothing will happen.

[Time Sage]

http://media.blizzard.com/emails/WoWWoD/header.jpg And here, have another. The URL is valid guys.

(I will note I dug though my email to find these)

[Gonder]

I do have my scans running, just in case this really was an attack. It'll be running for two or three hours, though when it finishes, and if this thread is still alive and I haven't forgotten about it, I'll let you's know if I picked up any malware or viruses.

Edit: My malware scanner came up with nothing. Virus scanner will be a lot slower.

Does this mean I get three weeks playtime added to my account?

Well to be fair, literally every other Blizzard site does use https instead of http, but I will say I scanned my computer and nothing showed up so it doesn't seem harmful at least.

[Greektoast]

But... is there really free game time?

Hopefully not, but it would seem that at the least, keyloggers did not come with the website. Might be safe to login to our accounts I think.
