As you know, Blizzard is conducting a new phase of the World of Warcraft closed beta test. As a part of this phase, over 10,000 new beta account authentication keys were emailed to prospective testers.
Unfortunately, an error was made during the issuing of these keys and a number of current beta testers accidentally received a second authentication key.
Although it was never our intention to send additional keys to current testers, we feel it would be counterproductive to disable these keys when the opportunity presents itself to widen the beta test pool. Thus, we encourage you to distribute this second key to a friend. Please do not create a second account with your new key as this would be in violation of the Terms of Use agreement.
This email authorizes you to deliver the second authentication key, along with the original email instructions, to a friend whom you believe would make a valuable addition to the closed beta test. This person can then create an account to play World of Warcraft by visiting
www.worldofwarcraft.com.
After creating a World of Warcraft account, your friend will need to contact Billing and Account Services at
BLAHBLAH@blizzard.com to change the email address associated with this second key. If your friend does not change the email address, then any future emails related to that account, including technical support information and instructions on downloading subsequent patches, will go to the original email attached to the second authentication key and not to your friend.
For quick access to each individual tester, and to comply with the Beta Test Terms of Use agreement, please ensure that whomever you give the second authentication key to immediately associates their email address to the second key.
Thank you for your continued support, and we hope to see both you and your friend in the World of Warcraft soon.
