You can't get on until June 3.

If you really believe guilds will take the time and put forth the effort to kill Vashj and Kael after 2.4, I have some oceanfront property in Arkansas you may be interested in.

Ok, you know what kid? I'm tired of reading your posts that seem to have been attacked by a grammar @!*#. If you're going to post, do it right.

Also, with your attitude and patience, I wouldn't get your hopes up, you're going to be in the 1400's the entire season.

I have a very strong feeling that this kid stole his mommies credit card.

EDIT: Oh my god! I just looked at your armory...3k health on a level 54 protection warrior. You're in all greens minus a few blues.

My suspicions are confirmed.

Just because he's impatient doesn't necessarily mean that he's an awful player. Sure, his awful grammar IS annoying, but nonetheless, it does in no way reflect his gameplay.

Also, for all of the other people waiting around for the arena, just be patient. They'll add it in soon.

No.
