    Which typically do not arrive until well after you've been flagged, if at all. That's the point.

    Usually not till later though. I remember early WoD I got a lot of screenshots of horde and I think alliance garrison and they put it on the front page. Proudest moment of my mmoclife.

    Which was not expressed in your statement. And regardless, it's still untrue, I got my email for Legion alpha the day my account was flagged, and the day Alpha went live, all on 11/23/15(got email within an hour of Alpha launch). So really, your point is incorrect, and anyone checking their email is not wasting their time.

    Keep F5ing my peeps!

    How to know if you have been flagged?

    I mean, that's acceptable. And if I were home, I'd probably do that too. But for all my alphas/betas(been in most), I got email verification the day of the launch for first wave/initial wave. So there is hope for those checking their emails, especially if stuck at work.

    Check your accounts on the BNet Launcher. Should list Alpha under it if you've been flagged.

    Just login on your account management page and see if you gota new license added.

    You will get your emails, but it's not worth checking over your actual client because it'll likely be a significantly better indicator.
    I think the issue is, a good chunk of people are at work and can't check clients/account management(depending on firewalls) when invites typically go out, thus they check their email. What he was trying to say is it's pointless to do that because as he said first, they don't send out emails, and then later said they send them much much later. But again, from my personal history, I've found both of those to be false, as my emails have come almost as soon as Alpha/Beta launches.

    Regardless, good luck to all on getting your invites when they go out.

    "Hey Steve, where did you put the alpha files?"

    "Ah mate, I gave them to Elon Musk, thought it would cool to put the alpha files on the rocket!"

    "Steve you fucking idiot, those were the only files we had!"

    "Ooooops"

    So him putting his car on it was like "this is how much I trust this" gimmick and not a "Look how crazy I am."
    For the Alliance, and for Azeroth!
