I am still here.
I am waiting to get positive info before posting. i have not forgotten or abandoned anyone, just not willing to post information that may not be correct. Lots of rumors and maybes, but until i know for certain, im not saying.
I only hope this issue resolves soon and you all get in to beta.
I, of course, apologise for the issue and at no point did i mean to get anyone banned from alpha/beta.
ColiN - cant do right for doing wrong
Not your fault dude, can't blame you for doing a favor.
Glad you're okay though!
Not blaming colin at all, just frustrating but this certainly isnt a reason for me to throw my toys out of the pram and cancel my sub.
The beta is essentially getting to play the new expansion for free and a priviledge not a right, its not part of what you pay for in your sub.
I know for sure i wasnt banned immediately, I got the invite.. was able to access the page to download the client, I was even able to copy a character over using the beta character copy. Now if i try and get to any of those pages I just get the usual banned message. My client picked up the latest update but went from saying banned to unable to connect, not sure if thats because the authentication servers are down in the transition

It's not about "Throwing toys out of the pram" it's about the fact we haven't even been told why we are banned.
If I get banned / in trouble over something I expect at the least a brief email as why. Besides, the other reason for me is I'm finding live really boring right now... beta was basically the only thing of interest to me.

I have a friend in the alpha already and im pretty sure we were both invited by colin, him a week after me, im banned still he isnt.
Atleast I think he was invited by Colin, as he said yesterday, if it wasn't he much know someone else who does, but who that can be he doesnt have a clue. Could be a rep for blizzard/activision has works for a videogame store.

THIS. Reading some of the responses in this thread to their beta access being revoked is frankly pathetic "I'm quitting if i dont get my beta access back" etc... though pretty typical mentality for WoW players unfortunately.
lolwat
People have been summarily banned from PTR, Beta, Alpha, all future stages, without even getting an email telling them so.
I know. What's your point? Closed Beta access wasn't a god given right.
Who said it was?

I am not annoyed I'm banned, I'm annoyed that there was *NO* explanation to why, and I can't even access the PTR!
I mean, okay if I got an email saying to me "You know what, I'm sorry but the way you were invited wasn't really on, so we're going to have to remove you." I'd have been thinking "Aww damn, oh well guess at least I got to look" but when I was doing all the right things, then just get banned, my questions to why ignored, and worse still I'm not even able to access PTR anymore I'm like
Plus, You're missing out on that many of us are *VERY* bored of wow. I'm wanting to quit mostly because of the 0 reponse from blizzard, and that I'm completely and utterly bored of live.
Beta was the only thing worth having an active account for. When you're 11/12 ICC25 HMs there's not really a lot left to do in game which is why my sub is now set not to renew.
Cata was actually shaping up to be quite fun from what I saw of it.
Posted in the other WoW thread, but no help yet.
Could someone use a scroll of resurrection on me please? Feeling bored and wanted to check out some wow again.
I get 10 days free and you get 30 days if i decide to pay subscription again, so its win win really. Find it through account management then send it to Gonzola on Deathwing.
Thanks.

Bah thanks anyway, strange, pretty sure its been well over 90 days :S.
EDIT: "The Scroll of Resurrection can only be cast on a Classic World of Warcraft account. It is not possible to cast Scroll of Resurrection on trial, Burning Crusade or Wrath of the Lich King accounts."
Well that sucks guess im gunna have to pay.

It's nothing to do with "If i don't get my beta access back im quitting", it's the fact that people have been banned from the alpha AND the Ptr, with absolutely no explanation and no answers to numerous emails sent to blizzard.
