Pro Tip #1 – Neuro knows nothing about mounts and where to get them.

Pro Tip #2 – Don’t mess with Cinder when ranting pants are equipped. 

Links to topics we discussed in the show:

A bunch of accounts had their Legion Alpha AND Overwatch beta access revoked because of poor behaviour on the forums – https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/4eeb6v/blizzard_removes_legion_alpha_and_overwatch_beta/

Legacy server Nostalrius closed down after legal action. (see also http://www.polygon.com/2016/4/11/11409436/world-of-warcraft-nostalrius-shutdown-legacy-servers-final-hours)

Klor’s thoughts:  “Giving players old world servers is like giving a child the puppy they want. It’ll be the greatest thing in the world for a while then interest will decline and the cost will greatly outweigh the benefit.”

Special thanks to Spankyhunter, Professor Moriarty and Ams for their lovely contributions to the show!
