Ups and Downs

So I think I might be cursed or something. My luck has been going up and down over the last two months, with my internet woes and WoW account hassles. I thought everything was going back up: Internet was working, WoW account back (but still being worked on), mate moving back from England and bringing an Authenticator with him for me. Stuff like that.

So last week I decided that my computer needed replacing. I ordered a new one and it is due to arrive tomorrow. However, the VERY SAME DAY that I ordered my computer (the day after my last post) my computer at home carked it and decided it didn't want to work anymore. I think the RAM has gone back, but the RAM in my old PC doesn't fit in it, so I can't test that.

So, that annoyed me, but I am getting a new computer tomorrow, which is good. Not looking forward to reinstalling everything again, but thems the breaks.

Now, woes with my account again. Obviously haven't been able to play because my computer, but that's not so bad, because it's still under investigation. I emailed Blizz asking for an ETA on the restore. They basically said "The Account Admin department is not responsible for restoring compromised accounts".... WTF? Isn't that your job? After a bit of cursing I realised my request "has been forwarded to the investigations department and they will get back to you when it's completed". Great, that could take FOREVER. So I've decided to get myself geared up as best I can (basically starting from NOTHING) and then I'll pay back the Guildies who help me out. Someday. Somehow.

Eventually, I hope all my gear is restored, but until that time I'm happy to go with what I can get. But of course I'll need to get back on a working computer first :)
