I just got online, reading through email and checking updates on the front page. Eldorian continued with the Diablo III Beta Key giveaway, which I’m thankful for. Best wishes, Tom – Medievaldragon

  • Eldorian and Mith have been hard at work moving Blizzplanet to another server. There was no problems. They had plans to do it for some time, but had not scheduled when. Today was a good day. Some things might be broken for a few hours while files, and images are uploaded. DNS was changed too. It may take a while for some people in Europe and Asia to access Blizzplanet, but no longer than 36...

  • We have had some random downtime in the past few weeks. Mith and Eldorian tried to figure out what the problem was, considering the system and addons are pretty good. Hosting didn’t find any issues in the logs each time we reached them. Seems the old site was somehow still operational to some degree and was hogging resources like crazy. The old site’s files have been completely removed. So, crossing fingers, server performance should be...

  • Apologies to those who follow us through the Blizzplanet App (iPhone/iPad and Mobile Android). We know many of you love the Blizzard Blue Post tracker, a new feature introduced a few months ago (by Mith), as the app page’s feedback says. However, a few days ago prior to the launch of Cataclysm, Blizzard officially launched the new World of Warcraft website, and their forum coding changed some. After I alerted Mith, he tweaked it to...

  • I got two videos from my adventures in Cataclysm that I will show off later today [Sunday]. Likely late afternoon or in the evening. One is definitely the most hilarious questline ever in World of Warcraft. The other one is much more important for all Warcraft lore followers. About a quest concerning a pure black dragon egg, and its ties to a upcoming novel not yet officially announced. If you wanna learn more, check us...
