| OK, so I downloaded the client from TPB and installed it, and now I'm lost in a sea of incremental patches. Where do I go from here to get myself up to 3.1.3? |

| They're all incremental though, right? Is there one I can apply to take me up to 3.1.3 without having to install several other patches first? |

| the ones that jump versions go to 3.2.0, so they prob wont work. There is one that jumps from 3.0.3 to 3.1.0 i think tho, thats a big one... |

| whoa. Just....whoa. Well, I guess I'll see you all in game once I've finished downloading and installing that. See you in 2 weeks!  EDIT: No offence, but on reflection, there's no way I'm going to download a 7GB file through my browser. None of the patches I've downloaded work either. I'm seriously considering giving up and going back to UO. I just wanted to try WoW and see what the hype was about. This is giving me a headache. |

| Yeah the patches suck, but it's well worth it! We have a great community here! Hope that you don't give up and see you soon! |

| I'm not giving up because I can't be bothered to patch, it's the fact that the patches refuse to work that's making me want to pack it all in. For example, I downloaded a patch to get my client up to 2.4.0 and on the few occasions it decides to actually run, it gets all the way to the end then the install fails. EDIT: I think it's working! I got the updater to work properly and I'm up to 2.4.0 now. I'm downloading the other patches as I type. See you all in game soon. |

| Hope so! Post your migrations as soon as you get it figured out and we'll get you set up in-game. |

| I did it, it's all working now. Look out in-game for a troll named Grimey. I assume 'migrations' are imported chars from the legit Blizzard servers? If so, I have none. I came here to try out WoW, as I've never played it before and I didn't want to have to shell out money to give it a decent run and try it out. |

yeah, we allow transfer of character progress from all official servers and blizz-like private servers. |
