However the Class rotations table has not yet been filled in, as rotations at the moment are rather pointless due to the summer holidays. We have been having a lot of trouble filling the raids for the 25 man because of that.
I have to make up for this by easing the the Rotations (as I never know whom will be available for a raid at the moment) and set up a few weekly 10 man runs instead. Holding on to the 25 man Sunday run in hope that we may fill it.

I would also like to give a reminder of the Raid Add Ons and keeping them up to date. I have noticed lately that a lot of you come to raids, without having the right add-ons installed or they are out of date. So please there is all the information you need along with links on site here so there no excuse not to have the right add ons up and running before the raid starts. These add ons are necessary for raiding with UNITY, and by not being organised before the raid holds everything and everyone up.

Another Handy application is WowMatrix for keeping Add-ons up to date.

Blizzard has launched a 'Recruit-A-Friend' campaign for World of Warcraft, offering up a free exclusive mount and other goodies for those who participate.

To get at the good stuff you have to stick the details of your mate in the recruit-a-friend page over at the official WoW site and the ball will start doing its rolling thing. If your friend opts to upgrade from the ten day free trial to a retail copy and pays for 60 days of play then you get the mount. The mount in question is called the Zhevra (it's a mish-mash of zebra and unicorn) and is only available to those who participate in the scheme. Participants can also get 30 days of free play.

Okay, so Blizzard hasn't (yet) announced an iPhone version of World of Warcraft. But if you do play WoW on PC and own an iPhone, there's a new app you should download.

It's called Warcraft Characters, and it lets you view avatars, basic info, stats and combat data for all your WoW characters - with the information being cached on your iPhone so you can proudly boast about your Level 68 Blood Elf to friends.

Blizzard makes reasonable efforts to make sure World of Warcraft accounts are secure, but in a world of keyloggers, network sniffers, Trojan horses, and plain-old bad passwords, it's not exactly uncommon for a WOW player to have his or her account accessed without permission, then find that everything their in-world character had that was remotely sellable was…gone.

To help combat the problem, Blizzard has announced it plans to offer a Blizzard Authenticator token for World of Warcraft accounts: the token will generate a short-term six-digit security code whenever a user presses a button. The user must then use that code along with their normal account name and password in order to log into the account. The token doesn't replace the security questions Blizzard associates with each account, but helps ensure that only users who physically have the correct token can access an account.

It may be the most famous MMORPG in the world, with over 10 million subscribers to the game, but according to a leading psychiatrist in the treatment of online game addiction, some World Of Warcraft users are more ashamed of being addicted to it than online porn.

If in-game screenshots just aren't doing it for you anymore, perhaps you should consider immortalizing your favorite virtual avatar in an oil-based portrait courtesy of the illustration team at Mondolithic Studios.
