Forum post of the day: Rage against the authenticator
Alright, so the splash screen mystery is dramatic. Whatever the important announcement is, I don't think they could come up with one that makes me happier than the new authenticator. I will be first in line to buy mine once it comes out. It seems that most of us are with me. We've been clamoring for better authentication, and we're going to get it.
A one-time charge of six and a half bucks for an extra layer of security seems like a smoking deal to me. It hasn't occurred to me to be bothered by the price. Tuhrell of Malrone believes that the authenticators should be distributed by Blizzard for free. Vallana of Thaurissan is on a short list of responders in the thread that agreed with the original poster. She believes that her $15/month is enough to spend on WoW and is "not retarded enough to get hacked so I really don't need it."

US Password Retrieval Service: Broken!
Ever forgotten your password? Changed it and forgotten what you changed it to? (I'm personally guilty of the latter.... well, either I forgot it or it didn't change properly, and which do you think is more likely?) Well, if so, you're familiar with Blizzard's password retrieval system which will cheerfully reset your password, generate a new (random) password, and e-mail it to the address registered with the account. Easy, huh?However, if you're currently having password troubles, it's not recommended to use the retrieval service - as it appears to be skipping that crucial e-mailing part of the process. There's no ETA on getting this fixed, but when it is, an update will be provided in this thread.
