Now I just need a betainvite. Anyone know Ghostcrawler's adress? I have a few threatening letters to send.
Put in a good word for me, too! I'd be grateful...and...uh...offer my services for one free stalking mission?

Aye, I've heard about that. Sounds just awful. I wouldn't be able to play without addons. The default interface is just too bad.

Seriously? I hate all addons that change the default interface. It's simple and easy to use, and doesn't look over the top. I've yet to see an interface changing addon that looks nice imo.

Same with me Ungoro. I've never had a problem with the Default UI. The most I've done in terms of altering it is to remove the Gryphons on either side of the action bars, and to change the minimap into a square.

I also don't like the idea of becoming so reliant on addons to change the game's appearance that you can't play without them. Whenever something big changes you're SOL without all of them. I try to keep mine somewhat minimal so I'm not overly restricted when huge patches or expansions come out.

I can't play without them, anyway. Too few places to put buttons in.
I need verbose information crammed all over the screen!

The standard ui is actually flawed that it's a memory sink. That's right, you lag less replacing the standard ui. I was surprised too.

I don't like the standard UI. Once you have a UI you like you don't want to go back to the standard UI. I find mine opens my screen up alot more by having all my buttons below and nice and neat.

How do you know if you have the key or not?

Oh and do you mind checking to see if Zhevra's are tameable please :)

To check if you have been invited to the beta, go onto the WoW site (Do NOT click any links from emails inviting you. They could potentially be scams!). Log in with your Battle.net and go into Account Management. It should have the Cataclysm beta under "Manage My Games".

If one of our beta testers gets the chance to check, could they confirm if Takk still exists? There have been some worries and I'm sure people would like to know.

They haven't been implemented yet, so no.

I dident luck out and get beta invite yet >: but still hopeing for it XD
Anyway if anyone is running around checking stuff, would anyone be so kind to go and check if the un`goro saurs have become tameable or if the Beast lore on them include diet. As well as the old world silithids/wasps, stags, thunderlizards, basilisks and the marsh walkers in outland.

If diet is shown there might be a chance for it(or other mobs of the same creature) becoming tameable sometime later.
Of course i realise its still early and new beast families might not have been looked into yet by Blizzard, But i read somewhere that beast lore now shows stags diet so im hopeing that means something good XD

Gala confirmed earlier in the thread that ZG in particular is still there.

Ooh, but how about Blackrock Spire? I want to know if the Beast is still in the game, even if it's not there...
