Many of us simply use the PTR to update the addons and have not played for years. Lucky me I bought one month of subscription two weeks ago because the PTR were down, so I could apply.

Ummm, okay ... I wasn't aware that you were able to play on the PTR without an active subscription. *boggle*

And, that is a standard 'condition' that has been on the list every time.

Anyway, sign up. Doesn't hurt to try. Maybe they'll flag your account anyway. *shrug*

I don't have an active account, signed up yesterday morning before I read this thread (I had /beta.php bookmarked ) and didn't get flagged. How long does it usually take?

Worst case scenario, I'd actually be willing to resub for a month for beta access. If/when I do, I suppose I'll need to contact you in order to get resubmitted?

I have the WoD beta since some weeks but is unplayable.
1. I can't bind keys the bindings always get lost when I logout
2. Server is almost always down when I have time to play
3. When I try to duell I got instant diconnets
4. Blizzard UI error poped up as long as I had the shoulders equiped on a premade lvl 100
5. Tryed to do the Introducen Questline but got bored it took over 1,5h and I coud not skip it and just run around without the NPCs, they will always port you back to do the quest

You were both answered in the original post:

Yep! Logging into the PTR actually uses a separate WoW "license" -- if you log into the Battle.net website and look at your list of WoW accounts, it'll have a PTR account next to your regular and trial account(s), assuming you've logged into a PTR client at some point.

Yeah, but in the past you didn't have to provide the email address attached to your Battle.net account -- a beta key was just mailed to your WoWI email address (or whatever address you entered on the giveaway page) and you could attach it to any Battle.net account you wanted -- so Blizz couldn't actually verify that your account was active before giving you the key.

Well, as I said above, it isn't going to hurt anything for you to submit your info. Worse that happens is you don't get in. *shrug*

Just wanted to post I won't be taking a key because I'm already in the beta a month ago.

A beta I haven't actually used since I stopped playing 2 years ago.

(Side note: I never unsubscribed from Wow despite so)

Addons are working in 18566, but it seems you need to ensure your TOC is updated to 60000 because loading out of date addons does not seem to work.

Tracking numbers 000001 through 000057 sent to Blizzard
1 through 57 inclusive? In other words, has 57 also been sent or only up to 56? I'm 57 :P

You were sent.

(If I tell my students to do numbers 1 through 57 for their homework, they better not stop at 56. )

D'oh, missed the cut-off for this week (I'm 000060). Oh well. Next week then, perhaps!

Any slight chance the WoD beta gets to the PTR servers (provided the PTR will be started up again)?

Myself I really can't remember anymore whether they did in Cata and MoP
