Around Azeroth: Full moon fever
Are you one of the people desperately longing to get into the Wrath beta? Well, keep in mind one thing -- it's a beta, not a way to play Wrath early and free (listen up, complainers of Howling Fjord general chat!) That means lag, bugs, and crashes.This particular crash brought down the whole continent of Northrend and left the death knight Stoker stranded in mid-air when his zeppelin disappeared. Apparently, Stoker was stuck there through the sunset and late into the night, unable to use his hearthstone or the unstuck command. He finally found a friendly warlock to summon him back to reality. In the meantime, I bet he got to know his ghoul's personal history really well.
This image came to us straight from the Wrath of the Lich King beta -- and we'd love to have your beta screenshots, too! If you have anything our readers might like, beta or not, sharing it is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. No more battleground scoreboards, please.

The same thing happened to me, except on the boat from Valiance Keep to SW. I tried everything, but it came down to doing a /who warlock and getting a summon from a friendly guy in Ironforge.

...And log back in the exact same place.
I was like that for almost 2 hours before it stopped continually booting me long enough to get free. o-o

Same thing happened to me on zepplin from Tirisfal to howling fjord. I was stuck until the GM got around to sending me back to shatt. Good thing I had a DK to play for a while

Cool, EU Beta has been crashing roughly 15 times a day (30 on weekends) and the lag is usually, 700ms :)
I decided to make a DK at like 6am in the morning, without the unplayable lag it was extremely fun.
