Taps

It's official. I have already started the 7 days of mourning. Please respect the player and his family during this especially difficult transition.

Alas poor Piratik, Dreadpirate, and numerous other toons...we knew them well.

From Blizzard:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello there XXXXX--
 
This message is being sent to confirm that all credit card information has been removed from the World of Warcraft account XXXXXXXXXX, effectively cancelling its recurring subscription as of February 28, 2008 12:22 AM UTC.  The account will not bill or renew any further unless new payment information (credit card or game card) is manually entered in.
 
The account will remain playable for the remaining time it has already paid for.  This account's current prepaid time will expire on March 15, 2008 12:19 PM UTC.
 
To check your account status at any time, you can log into your Account Management page at this link, using your account name and password:

At this time, Blizzard has no plans to delete or "expire" characters, even if an account is deactivated or cancelled.  This means that all of your characters and their progress will be retained on our servers.  Should you decide to return to World of Warcraft and reactivate your account, you will be able to pick up your characters again wherever you left off.
 
In the event you have any other billing questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Billing & Account Services team for support.  You can reply to this email directly, or call 1-800-59-BLIZZARD (800-592-5499) for live phone support between 8am and 8pm Pacific Time.  Users in Australia should please call 800-041-378, if the standard 800 line does not work for them.
