    The alpha hasn't started? Where are all those pictures coming from, then? Running the client on a private server?

    I get groans at the start of lots of heroics because of my gear. By the end I usualy get a "great healing". Funny thing is I am really lazy in 5 mans, usualy because of how overgeared the other people are. It makes me wonder though how super super lazy other healers are if I am getting complimented for what I do.

    Client might be downloadable, although I'm somewhat suspicious on how the deathwing picture was gotten if that's all that's available.

    As a resto Shaman, I get horribly bored. I often try to get the tank, regardless of whatever gear he's in, to speed it up and start chain pulling. Literally, Earth Shield and Riptide pretty much take care of it all.

    I just wanted to remind people who are talking about being in the Cata Alpha...

    ...disclosing that you're in the Cata Alpha is breaking the NDA. At least if the NDA terms from the last few Alphas hold true, and I'm sure they do.

    You're not allowed to tell anyone you're in, so be careful.

    It hasn't begun yet. Also I'm pretty sure if there's pictures of the shit all over MMO-Champion, we can at least tell people we're in.

    You can. NDAs don't cover that. They cover you sharing information about the game. You can piss in someone's cheerios and go "I'M IN THE ALPHA BITCH!" all you want I believe.

    I'm no lawyer though.

    It depends on what the NDA says. If the NDA says you may not disclose your participation in the alpha, then you can't. They can kick you from it, though anybody who thinks Blizzard just rolls around forums like this looking for people saying they're in the alpha, then cross references their info to try to find out who they are to kick them just for saying that is probably a little crazy. =P

    From all the leaked pictures, it seems Goblins are getting lots of love compared to Worgen. They build their own little mini-town complete with a goblin super cannon, and the Worgen just.. kinda go to Stormwind, cause it looks like. . .
    The Forsaken took Gilneas City, or most of it.

    Lady Moo-ladin it is. And now to come up with a fitting name.


    As for the NDA/Alpha thing, I am pretty sure that I'm right about this one. Previous Alpha NDAs precluded you from even mentioning you were in. Dunno why, though, but that's how it was.

    I'm thinking of a ninja female worgen rogue, or a goblin male warlock.

    Rogue for worgen cause of the nice skinning passive, and warlock cause a goblin just fits one, and they have the nice alchemy passive.

    Well, the Worgen female rogue will be my main alt. So awesome. I just need a secondary alt, so as to experience Hordeside new 1-60 content.

    Perhaps I shall call the Mooadin... Lightcream.

    You can't data mine without something to mine, which implies they have to have the alpha game client somehow.

    Although, it's possible to get the download servers to give you stuff that isn't supposed to be available yet sometimes, which might have been what happened here.

    You can have the client and have the servers not be available. I mean, just throwing it out there I guess.

    Well, yes, I think that's what I said, isn't it?

    The only thing suspicious is the screenshots with a background, since you either applied a background to your viewed model, or...somehow...you have a server.

    Edit: When it was said "the alpha hasn't started", I assumed that alpha client isn't even available yet. I have no idea what is the case here for client availability, but the bit about the backgrounded images still applies.

    I'm actually considering starting up a guild, with a focus on people who are coming back to the game because of Cata. I'll likely name it The Lookouts (because they're awesome) and probably on a PvE server. Because I don't think anyone is going to appreciate being on a PvP server and having level 80 fucks dropping in on new characters.

    I think that's a large part of it. I don't even visit his forums, but it comes across in his news posts too.

    Personally, he was also revealing a lot of shit I just didn't want to be true. Seriously, fuck Garrosh. Frankly, I'm going to sit out the Catalcysm launch, and if WoW draws me back, so be it, but I want to see how things go first, as well as reclaim my week nights. (Which means I'd play more "casually", if I play again.)
