Finished making all our arrangements for E3 today! It's amazing what 'escorts' charge over those websites just for a little fun. But whadya gonna do? Oh and Netflix 1 day to deliver is rad. Ok take these:

- Find bugs for cash! - Another tall building - Tell the IRS you just didnt understand... and you're off the hook! - Animals laugh, especially at poop jokes - Your kids are doing ok, just fewer big macs
Lastly, $100 fine for charging kids for autographs! How will athletes support their kids spread across the country now? :(

    At 12:00am on April 2, 2005 all player data will be erased in order to fix unreconcilable bugs within the World of Warcraft database. We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation. We realize that this will be a heavy blow to many of our long-time customers and faithful players. We have deliberated over this for several weeks, and have come to the conclusion that this is the only course of action that can be taken.

    Accordingly, all servers will be down for approximately 12-18 hours. We expect servers to go online and offline intermittently. Please do not try to log in during these times, as any characters that are created will be deleted as our system goes through the lengthy purging process. We expect that all servers will be online and ready for action by 12am on April 3, 2005.

    To compensate for this admittedly time-consuming loss, we will be awarding all new characters with an enhanced experience gain rate which scales proportionately with the character's level. At level 1, a gain increase of roughly 1000% can be expected, at level 10 the gain percentage is 800%, at level 20 it is 600%, at 30 it is 400%, at 40 it is 200%, and at 50, experience gains return to their normal level.

    Again, Blizzard apologizes for this unfortunate but necessary solution. It is neither our intent nor desire to drive away customers, however, in order to assure that we are able to offer a quality-driven, bug-free playing environment, it is necessary to endure this temporary setback. Blizzard would like to thank its valued customers for their understanding and support in these difficult times.
