Well i am newely registered but only because i was hunting around to buy a new PC and stumbled upon OC site (PC Ordered now comes tommorow), Colin has no worries with me, i have played WoW since release at hardcore level and also EQ for 5-6 years before that at hardcore level.
Im also nearing my 40s so im not a child, would be nice to get in for obvious reasons and i appriciate what colins done.
I think these forums are the best UK ones ive come across and i intend to become part of the community with the little knowledge i have compared to you guys.
Anyhows thought id try and write something to put some peoples mind at rest.
Get in or not get into alpha, either way many thanks Colin.

Holy spam alert! Colin will be getting blasted from every man and his dog with peoples asking for invites if this has been posted outside ocuk.
There's always one who has to go and spoil it because if he does get swamped he certainly won't make the offer again.
Wouldn't blame him if he got ****** off about it

I do believe there will be some people who are newly registered who will really want to play, such as you have said in your earlier post. But as I had thought it already looks like someone has ruined things and passed on info to other people outside of OcUK. My concern was that we would have an influx of new registered users appearing asking for access who had never spoken to Colin before nor caring about the NDA.
As you had joined in April it wasn't you that made me think "This seems odd" It was others registered in May+ onwards since this thread came about.
I really only have Colin's interests at heart and don't mean to offend anyone. How many of us really thought we would even get to play the Beta?
Unfortunately, Colin may even have to change his email address if it spreads more
It's a great shame that someone has decided to abuse Colin's generosity, and if I put myself in the same situation I’d be extremely annoyed and reluctant to go out of my way to help people in the future.

Agree that is a total lack of respect by that person for what Colin has kindly done, idiot is the only word that comes to mind.

TBH I ain't really had much time to play alpha (or wow at all) because of moving offices and stuff in real life... but was *AMAZED* I got in to the Alpha at all even after Colins email telling me I was added... I thought my chances were at best 20 percent, yet a few days later I got in.
I'm really amazed and thankful to him, and it's one of the reasons I've not posted much in this thread recently, it's far to easy to accidently say something which could break NDA. I'd rather just level a bit and mess around looking at the changes.
Im still waiting in hope that i get an invite, seems all the other people added at the same time have got their invites, still holding on.
its a shame that some people have to ruin it for everyone personally i wouldn't dream of passing on his email or giving out details of the alpha. its a real shame.

Like you i'm still hoping that i get an invite. But to read that this has been spammed onto other forums is annoying and disrespectful of Colin's generosity
Hopefully i get an email this week for the Alpha, i have a week off work and could do with something different to play and actually do some new quests.

Colin who?
I've used trust myself, it'd be really great to get involved and for that opportunity I can only echo the appreciation everyone has for Colin for doing so. I've not heard anything back yet, but I'll keep my fingers crossed
Not sure if your refering to me or not, but I've only recently joined because I actually lost access to my Old Account (admittidly only had 200 posts) If you check my posts you'll find that I recently built a PC Primarily for WoW and that I was also in the Lich King Beta - hence why a friend, who has considerably more posts than me put me in the direction of this thread.
No bother, i have stopped taking names now. Sorry guys but as i said, only takes one person to stop the process. Mail has been changed so please dont send any more to me, i will ignore them. Just as the post is doing with my pc parts!! I was not bothered how many posts, but expected some trust to be given to keep it to this board.
If its false, and not posted else where, well, may start taking names again, until then its ended.
Who ever it was who posted it, your a muppet.
