I had this bright idea of flagging my World of Warcraft account for Wrath of the Lich King expansion trial, thinking that I could get 80 in the 10 days provided by the trial period. Unfortunately, the trial caps the experience gain at 99% into level 70, preventing one from reaching 71. Drats!

Also, two years ago I made a post lamenting WoW’s billing system, and I had the exact error upgrading to WotLK and had to once again, apply the zip code trick. It is perturbing that an error like this could go unsolved for two years. Then again, it took Microsoft 17 years to discover a bug in their software. When it comes to mammoth software companies, never underestimate what they are incapable of.
