Sylvannas Windrunner Backstory

The leader of the Undead, Sylvannas Windrunner has a very sad back story that is detailed in Warcraft III. Someone was kind enough to go back to the old game and record the story threads and post them on YouTube. If you are interested in the story, click on these links:

After the story that takes place in Warcraft III, Sylvannas was able to recover her body and can be found in the Undercity in World of Warcraft. Blizzard added a quest line to WOW where members of the Horde find a necklace that belonged to her sister. This triggers an in game event where she sings a song, Lament of the Highborne.

WOW is Down Again

Just tried to log into the game and I can't get in. Here is the typical keystone cop scenario of a typical Blizzard outage.

1. Try to log into game and it won't authenticate me. (Got an "unable to connect" error this time.)
2. Go to the forums to see if there are issues.
   
3. Can't connect to the forums cause they are down too. (See 1 above).
4. Wait 10 or 15 minutes and log in again.
5. Now I authenticate, but I get an error saying "your prepaid time is up". That could be the case, but I think I'm paid up to the summer.
6. So I click on Manage Account to check.
7. I get a "Server Busy" error message from the account management server. Obviously I'm not the only one having this problem. lol.
8. So I try to log into the Forums to post a message about 5 - 7.
9. Can't log into the forums because they won't authenticate me.

Blizzard has to be the worst company ever when it comes to this stuff. You would think they could at least develop systems robust enough so you could contact them to let them know they have an issue. Not Blizzard. Wait until the customers crash the forum server, or account server, or whatever. Then we will take action.

So since I can't contact them through normal channels, I post here. Maybe someone somewhere will hear my plea for help. lol. I doubt it!!! :)
