They may still be dealing with the DDoS situation that has been going on for the last few days. They also had maintenance earlier today.

I use the macro keys on my keyboard to type in my password every time I log in. I cannot imagine it would throw up a red flag before you even log into the server.

You cannot. Your account is forever locked into the email address it was created with. Good luck!

Did you delete your WDB folder after the maintenance? If you didnt, it is possible that the item is still appearing as its level 60 item instead of 58. Just a thought.

As far as I am aware, you cannot change the email associated with your Elysium account. I assume this is to help combat account selling.

Idea.. are you trying to play on the server for the first time? Is it disconnecting you before you get to the character select screen? if so, when you get the "Connected" wording to show up, hit the Cancel button, and it should pop up with the realm selection menu. Select a realm and see if it disconnects you again. I had heard on a stream that the game was trying to connect people to a test realm and was disconnecting them instantly. This should allow you to connect to any of the four available servers. Or try this that someone else found as a fix, this should at least get you to the part where you can select a realm, if you do not with to play on Anathema..

Looking at your previous posts, you are pretty much having the exact same issues as most people. We are being told the servers are in the middle of combating a DDoS attack. So random disconnects, horrible ping, etc., are bound to be happening. People are still having this issue on Elysium-PvP and Darrowshire-PvE as far as I am aware. Attacking the community doesn't help you either, as it seems people have given you some options and just none of them have appeared to work.

Wouldn't it take longer to buff an entire raid with Paladin buffs, than the buff would last? What is the point of doing this anyway?

Are you referring to the patch that allowed players from R11 up to purchase any R12-R14 armor/weapons? I believe this was the pre-patch for TBC, but i could be wrong.

Arenas came with TBC.

^ this! have you tried playing without any addons and talking freely in any chat channel?

I do not believe the rank has anything to do with the amount of threat it generates, just the base health of the totem. How are you trying to use Stoneclaw? Are you trying to use it as a 'tank' for yourself? This method will not work as your damage will out-threat the totem taunts. Are you trying to use it as a means to tank a mob for you when you pull multiple mobs? This should work on a mob you have not attacked yet, unless it gets resisted. I have used this method many times, it works great for a couple seconds of healing or something if you are needing less casting pushback. I do not believe that the 'taunt' ability has a rank level, I believe even for a warrior it is a one rank ability. A taunt will only it will cause the target to focus attacks on it until the duration of the taunt is over, assuming no other threat has been performed by the person (or totem in this cause) to the target which would cause it to hold aggro. Since the totem does not attack, just taunts, it should pull a mob off you but will not tank something you are attacking that target. I hope this answers your question? If you believe that something may be wrong with the totem/taunt itself, you could always try submitting a bug report.

I see this happening all the time with people even in my parties for dungeons. People using bots or leveling services are not doing dungeons and talking freely. It is a syncing issue with your game, their game, and the server. It is no different that if you had seen that character walk into a tree and then the next second appear to the left of a tree still running forward. You have much better ping that I do on this server (video looks like you have ~84ms, I run about 140-150ms) so its possible that the player you're following has a much higher ping than you. so you saw people leveling? That's usually how you go about leveling in this game, you approach a mob, kill it, then you eat/drink if necessary, and then repeat. I can only assume you're attempting to troll here, but the rest of the paragraph makes me assume you're not. ps I saw the same thing with the names, most like spammer accounts just getting to a high enough level to whisper.

I feel like all this time spent on the forums complaining about your banned account, you could have just created a new account and started leveling again. I didn't notice you say what level your warlock was, but I assure you that if you were wrongfully banned and filed for an appeal and then found innocent, you will get your account back in a few days. If you have not bothered to file for an appeal, you should just create a new account and start over. In the 4 hours or so that this post has been active, you could of easily gotten level 10+, if you were trying seriously to catch yourself back up. You say you have 2-3 hours a day to play when you are not driving a bus, but you've wasted your 2 or 3 hours complaining on the forums (or maybe you're answering forum responses while driving a bus?!!?!?!) Just my $0.02 about the situation. Good luck with your account though, if you have truly not done anything wrong, it shouldn't be a problem appealing.

You could always just turn off Whispers all-together and just resort to using /s, /g, /y, /1, etc. No add-ons required! Or you could just get an add-on like everyone else has mentioned and stop complaining. I agree the spam while I was at the lower levels was pretty annoying, but it wasn't so bad that I wanted to tear my eyes out. You see the message, you ignore it, and move on. I have made it into my 30s, play for 1-2 hours a day and see maybe two whispers from gold spammers anymore. It is fairly easy to ignore. Gold spam is always a problem because people buy gold and services because they are available and easy. Blame those people for the gold spammers, stop blaming volunteers who I am sure have a million things to be looking at on top of all the gold spam complaints.

I would think the Whirlwind Axe (15str/14sta) + Axe Spec (+X% crit) is going to be better overall, even though The Rockpounder (5str/2%crit) will, on average, hit harder because of its higher damage range.
