Quov tried a few places locally to him but no avail. I ended up ordering a copy online from Strategic Systems as they email you the key on purchase. I then had to upload the 4 CD's to him from work. Was pretty mad but it all worked in 5 hours or so, maybe a little longer

Hroth had tried our local GAME (where he got our copies on release day) but none in stock, and the guy couldn't say when they'd have more stock, nightmare

If you're gonna hit London then there should be no trouble. Obviuouly, check this place out if you can't get a copy

looks weird site but it works. Choose the Pay by Phone option then you can defienitely ask them to mail the key out and we can upload it again whatevs

righto hoon, nice to know if all else fails, I can get a copy.
I can start my pc at home downloading now if you think it's worth it, and your able to provide me a URL to the CD's - ahh the beauty of RDP (or dameware)

Necrea: When we meet 3 years ago, I was playing half-life counterstike all hours of the day, shortly after that, Hroth and Co were starting out in DAoC, Hroth's 'other half' insisted to my gf that I NOT be aloud to buy DAoC as it was so addictive and time consuming, a few months down the line, I bought a copy of DAoC and 125days /play later, 3 accounts, 8x lvl50 and 3years on, I'm still playing DAoC, I'm also storing about 6 other mmorpg's that I've bought, subbed and returned to DAoC....Karen really hates DAoC with a passion, but she knows it's my hobby, not like I'm a football nut, a piss head or out with my mates everynight of the week getting wasted. So all in all I've managed to balance home life with DAoC and other mmorpg's - we now have a baby on the way too, so I know my playtime will be cut drastically in the coming months.
Apart from that Karen loves mmorpg's, just as long as she's not playing! :)

Now where is the URL to the cd's for wow! :)

Hoon: I spoke to Hroth lastnight (morning for you guys) and sent him an email with my VPN details, i can setup ftp, but it's a pain in the hole, Hroth managed to connect to the vpn and my domain, I did ask him to send the deatils to you but i guess he may well be uploading the CD's to my desktop already - slower but gettin the job done.

I'm just checking now if he's started uploading, but i'll also send you the email i sent Hroth.
Basically all my vpn/domain details and where to upload too
TIA
PS Helps if you occasionally sign in on messenger :P
