We're all newbs, some are just more newbier than others.
Just a burned out hardcore raider turned casual.
I'm tired. So very tired. Can I just lay my head on your lap and fall asleep?

Nope, ive been subscribed since classic began... and i havent gotten a single subscription mount even tho there has been atleast 1 during this time. Same with the older ones few years ago.
This is not a loyalty reward, blizzard doesnt know how to do those... you could be a 17 year old nonstop-subscriber but you get NOTHING if you dont specifically subscribe for 6 months with this specific deal.
Its purely to try and get new players into the game OR to try and retain existing players for longer than they would want.
Its sad and disgusting... they dont care if youre an old veteran player of the game.
Mmm, more delicious fodder for the people who list "hates Blizzard" as a personality defining trait.

You sure about that, friendo?
Tabard of flame was the super common one, right? I recall this TCG loot card set, and the Flame tabard was dirt cheap, but the others were obscenely expensive.
I used to think this shit was lame and still kinda is.
Mount reward is getting SERIOUS diminishing returns though.
Will anyone actually give a shit once they start heading towards 1000 mounts?
When this was given out, I was subbed non-stop from March 2005 (one month after EU release) until it was given out, except for a 9 month period I was hospitalized, which meant I never received one. Always makes me a tiny bit sadge, but not like Blizzard could know/do anything about that. Just felt like sharing.
Back on topic though, other than this statue, long time subs have never otherwise received something unless subbed in 6 month periods (as far as I can remember at least). I understand where Otaka is coming from frankly. I'd much prefer a reward program that rewards how long you've been subbed, not in how big a periods you do it in. Just my 2 cents.
Then you might want to contact Blizzard support or something. I've gotten every 6-month mount since they started doing that without having to do anything special, besides be subbed.
I got mine 10 minutes ago. They go out in waves, you'll get it somewhere between instantly and the 22nd according to the flyer.
so ... where do i claim this tabard in tbc ?
"An epic Tabard of Flame will turn every outfit into a fierce fashion statement! Once you purchase the 6-Month Subscription, redeem your item by accepting a special quest from Innkeepers in any capital city, as well as Landro Longshot in Booty Bay. The quest is available for all Burning Crusade Classic characters attached to a single regional Battle.net account."
They pump out new store bs faster than any other content.
