When did this happen? They were mailing the specific one after you picked a side previously. They must be moving shit around for account-wide pets or something. My guess is this won't stick (unless account-wide = horde pets on alliance and vice versa).
On that note, do you guys have any idea how fucked up the pricing of items has become on RP servers because of transmog? Cindercloth recipes for tailoring are of extremely high value, let alone the vest / leggings when people put them up on the AH.

I had 500 gold on my tailor before level 20
On a different note, I haven't played since around Ruby Sanctum. Wiped my roster, rolled all new toons.
When you hit 80, should you try to roll into Hyjal with 20K HP or go do dungeons for gear?
This right here. Vashjir is a little brutal on fresh 80's. Unless you buy yourself ilevel 270+ gear on the AH, starting at level 77.

Which you might want to check on. On my last couple alts to 85 I was able to snag some cheap ~300 blues usable by lvl 80 for cheap that made leveling way easier and you make money back fast selling everything from quests.
This here - You can get stuff for 40 to 90 gold if your auction house functions reasonably.

Don't know, played the beta at a friend's house. I could create a panda and pull up the Pet Battle Journal (he mapped it to Alt+J) and summon whatever companions he had learned on that server, even though ordinarily you wouldn't be able to have a Companion in the starting area since there are no mailboxes here. This included both versions of the Moonkin pet. Then I could log on to his 85 premade Alliance Pandaren Monk and still use either Moonkin pet, but if I logged onto his 85 undead rogue he only had the horde moonkin pet available instead of both.
Edit: This is referring to the Pet Battle Journal and summoning the pets from there. Currently the Companion tab in your spellbook only shows the specific pets that you have learned on that character. So, for example, if you bought a cat in Elwynn Forest, the character that bought it can summon that cat from his spellbook, but everyone else could only summon it from the Battle Journal and wouldn't see it in their regular spellbook.
I'm assuming the Companion tab of the Spellbook will eventually be updated to have all the pets the Battle Journal has. They'll probably also fix Pandaren having access to both Moonkin pets, since that's probably not intended since other races can't access both.
At least I manage to get Heroic Ragnaros while it was still something of an accomplishment.

You know that new rogue glyph that lets you assume the appearance of a humanoid when you pickpocket them?
Durn the Hungerer can be pickpocketed.
I was wondering how a player turned into a giant Gronn in Orgrimmar in the beta
Ah, that may just flat out be broke. I know the Pet Journal shows a lot of pets that don't exist and/or are from the opposite faction. I just remember when I made a Panda it mailed me the faction-specific version of the Moonkin when I picked my faction. But it's totally possible the pet journal always let you summon both (because it's buggy/unfinished)
Plus plus plus, you can talent into Incarnation for another DPS Cooldown, +25% damage while in Eclipse. I wonder if Celestial Alignment and Incarnation can stack...
I'd test it, but Beta servers are down for maintenance.
Cast until you hit 0 energy.
Pop Alignment
Done right, your Incarnation will last for the duration of Alignment.
EDIT: It's fully intended to work with Incarnation, because otherwise Incarnation would be largely wasted. They both even have the same cooldown. It's worth noting that Alignment does not grant you any extra DPS: you're just getting both eclipses simultaneously.
That's kind of neat I guess.
Unless you are a Tauren. No more linguistic skills for cows.

We one shot everything up until Madness, first attempt was pretty good but we didn't quite get it, we lost a healer and a tank on the last platform we did. Afterwards the rogue realized his poisons had worn off at some point.
Second attempt, the warrior tank charged or something while crossing islands and fell to his death fairly early on. After that, people had to go, most of them were east coast. I guess we're going to try to meet back up on Sunday to take out Deathwing... really hoping for Vishanka.
Felt pretty good overall, my 390 Hunter was only routinely getting beaten by the Fire Mage whom I'm pretty sure outgeared me. I think the rogue also could beat me on fights that weren't melee unfriendly. He was working on the legendary daggers, the essence collection part, so he had me outgeared on weapons too.
I've been looking at the MMO-Champ post on the new beta patch going up now and I'm seeing some good stuff. Looks like they reduced the mana cost on Mass Dispel drastically and gave it a 15 second cooldown, though it only dispels 1 beneficial effect on enemy targets now. I hope it prioritizes buffs that can't be normally dispelled at least... because trying to drop an iceblock or bubble and having it dispel a Brilliance or something instead would really suck.
They completely reverted the Survival Hunter changes and increased Explosive Shot's damage a bit. They switched around some stuff on Priests. Destro Warlocks are looking really interesting, may have to dust my 80 warlock off. Chaos Bolt just replaced Soul Fire completely for them, which is kind of weird and not exactly what Warlocks had in mind I'm guessing, but eh. I'll have to hop into beta probably tomorrow, haven't checked to see if the servers are even up right now.
my unofficial autobio will be accompanied with tips on how to smile
cause I've found that when they don't see you frown, they never know that you're a threat
and they don't sweat you when you came around
I am making an undead monk and a pandaren rogue
The characters that i am thinking about making if I got more slots are an undead death knight and a troll warlock
As for the pets problem I think it's due to a memeory issue because I know there are people with over 150 pets out there and only 4 or 5 pages to the mail box so they might mass mail them to you
Currently I get if I start a new character on account A 19 pets get mailed to them
Oh my god, this makes my RP penis soar!
On a totally unrelated note, I have a question regarding druids of the balance sort. While glyphs as they stand now aren't going to matter when MoP comes out, I still must know, what are the optimal glyphs to pick?

Yeah, Blizzard remembers too. Bravo.
Well. Played.

PvE
Prime: Insect Swarm, Moonfire and either Wrath for pure single target or Starsurge
Major: Starfall and Focus are dps increases, Thorns is indirect dps and Solar Beam, Rebirth are nice utility.
Minor: decide if you want Typhoon or not, then whatever
Personally, for questing, LFD, LFR I'd go with Insect Swarm, Moonfire, Starsurge + Starfall, Focus, Thorns + Dash, Aquatic Form, Unburdened Rebirth
PvP
Prime and Minor as above, for Major take Barkskin, Solar Beam and Monsoon.
I had a question how hard would it be to get to freindly with the Ashen Verdict now?
Bravo Blizz...Bravo. /clap

Well I get a lot of them with the name Brian so I guess they are getting some of thier info from here but then that's not my real name
bad thing: it's a 359 ilvl cape when everyone and their grandmother can get a 365 one by doing the thrall quest -.-
Eat a dick, Ghostcrawler.
Good ol luck of the draw. I could have had two of the 410 ones but I passed to someone else as from what I have seen MoP is going to be like BC in terms of gear retention. But on your same vein we have yet to get protector on our heroic kills this month. Not one piece.
So you are saying we will look like clowns again?
Can't wait to don my purple pants and yellow breast plate with a nice bright blue helm! YEA
Are you still on Arygos or did you transfer off? I just realized I haven't seen you in a while.
Yea, I've been on Cho'gall for about a month now. I'll PM you my email and you can add me to realID. I only get on my Mage a couple times a week right now thought.
Mostly I'm wondering if all my alts are going to get free 310% flying from that Violet Proto-drake I got from What a Long Strange Trip a few years back.
Though I guess account-wide mounts would do the same thing, since isn't the Violet Proto-drake coded to grant 310% flying the first time you mount it now or something?
On a related note, I wonder if "the Insane" title will become even easier by having one character go Bloodsail and another go Steamwheedle.
Oh, or if those extra dailies at the Argent Tournament that require a reputation achievement will just be unlocked for all my alts from now on.
