WoW Insider has a lot of ways to keep you abreast of the latest World of Warcraft news. Of course we have our main page here and our RSS feeds, but we're also on all the different social media platforms.







Please stop in and join us at both! You'll often find writers taking questions for The Queue (because **distracted by puppies** only goes so far), soliciting feedback -- even giving away some stuff now and then.

WoW Insider is giving away a year's worth of WoW game time to one lucky individual. All you have to do is retweet our Twitter message and be following us by April 11 at 11:59 p.m. EDT.

Not following us on Twitter? Don't know what the message is?

Join our Twitter community and find out!

This contest is only for North American servers, and anyone in United States and Canada can apply (excluding Quebec). You can read the official rules for more information.

And just to be crystal clear: This is a Twitter-based giveaway. DO NOT enter by leaving a comment on this post. You won't win anything but a /facepalm for leaving a comment here!

Update: Old style or new style RTs are both okay. You can enter as often as you want, but be kind and don't spam your friends!

Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the WoW Insider staff and ask them, "What are you playing this week?" -- otherwise known as: WRUP. Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game -- and catch us in the comments to let us know what you're playing, too!

Ever wonder what your favorite WoW Insider writers are up to when they're not writing for WoW Insider? Well, thanks to the technological marvel known as Twitter, you can now e-stalk our writers and absorb our infinite wisdom 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! (That's right, even on Fridays.)

What did you miss this week by not following your favorite WoW Insider editors? Well, for starters, yours truly talked about a new Dispersion glitch and lustful cries of "zug zug;" Mat McCurley bragged about his prescience on the Winged Guardian mount and spammed more pictures of his cat; Tyler Caraway (who will heretofore be named "little nugget") surrendered to his crippling devotion to Fox Van Allen and begged to be "taken;" Mike Sacco created a WoW-themed game of Nutsy Bolts and invited all his followers to join in; and Alex Ziebart played some Atari 2600, gave away a loot card, and then freaked the hell out over a bug. All in a week's work for the WoW Insider crew.

What will happen next week? You should follow us all and find out. Whatever we say, it's likely to be entertaining, if only because we don't have paid editors on hand in our personal lives to stop us from saying something really, really stupid.

But enough shameless plugging of ourselves on Twitter -- it's time to get back to shameless plugging of ourselves on WoW Insider via WRUP. This week's bonus question lands our editors in a bit of déjà-vu-like controversy: "What do you think of the winged lion (Winged Guardian) mount? If you hated the sparklepony, do you hate this? Or have you come to terms with microtransactions?"

First of all, I need to thank each and every one of you for participating in our Beta launch, and providing your comments, bug reports and suggestions. Keep them coming!

We have had many questions today, which has helped us refine our Help Guides, and prompted us to write up a FAQ. Because this is a Beta test, you can expect that we will add to it as the site develops.

We would also like to request that before you send in your questions and bug reports, you check out the aforementioned official FAQ to see if we've already written up answers.

And don't forget to hop onto Twitter, because we're using our page as a platform for giveaways, news, and launch-related information!
