I seem to be eligible. Early December 2004
Earliest sub on my account history seems to be 24/8/2006. I could swear I started in 2005 but I guess a year's difference mistake is easy to make considering I was only 10 or 11 back then.
4/28/2005 was when my free month expired. From what I understand, this should mean that I'd get the present, but I haven't gotten any mail about it. I guess it's because I wasn't subbed from about a month into Cataclysm until WoD release? Oh well.
I started my account 3months after release, meaning I missed out by 1 month only
However I believe that this is the most interesting factor, HOW many ppl will have kept a continuous sub for 10yrs +?
I know I missed out on probably 4 months in 10yrs which is nothing. This is blizz being extremely scroogy!
My current account was created November 23rd 2004. No email, not even in spam.

Eh, a little under 3 years. I think it's cool blizz is doing something for the real vets tho. Would be cool if the gift was a mini figure of your oldest character and that everyone got one once their about turned 10 years old.
Well if you add all the times I stopped services due to boredom, I am at 9 yrs, but I have had an account since the servers went live and I was on US Sargeras. I just didnt want to waste money during the down times I was not playing.
Not close at all. Dec 8th 2006...

I would have got it. But my first account was stolen and blizzard could never get it back for me
Aye mate
I got my account the day the game came out.
Spoke to Blizzard livechat and was told that the account date was only one of the selection means, and the remainder were not something the person I was speaking with could disclose.
I love what MMOchampion does, but its pretty annoying that they say things that are only parts of the truth.
Just report on the news and don't try to extrapolate if you aren't sure whats happening <_<
Regardless, it wasn't something that Blizzard needed to do, so I'm not too upset.
At least for now... if the gift is something amazing I'll be pretty jealous, especially if they continue to hide the criteria when I clearly met what seemed to be the most important one.

On my original account I would have been a day off :-)
12th Feb 2005 (EU) - but have had a while unsubbed during Wrath, so probably will make me ineligible...
I played during the closed beta, then finally created an EU account at the launch of Wotlk. So i guess I missed it by a wide margin.

But didn't get shit so far, and am still active today.
I'd say it'd be rude if they were just sending them to players that have been subbed since 2005/2004.
May 6th 2005 :/ So not very much at all. Oh well I guess thats the way the cookie crumbles.
Im a European player btw.

I had been playing since December. But it was on my friends account because I couldn't convince my mom to spend 15$ a month on a game. I finally got my own account on February 25th 2005. I missed out by a month and 2 days. I've stayed subbed even when I stopped playing for lengths of time, the only time my account has ever lapsed was when I changed my credit card number and I immediately resubbed.
