If you have multiple accounts merged with your battle net account, do you get the pet on all of them?

yes, EVERY toon on each account gets a pet.

Let it be known that you can get the bot on any character regardless of faction.

It's almost a shame that my other accounts are disabled. But I never have the pets out. And there's no special feat of strength achievement.

Awww so you can only get it on active accounts. I just cancelled 3 of my 5 for the summer/fall. Oh well.

In game advertising FTW. Knew this would happen sooner or later. I remember joking about this in the Pre-BC days, me and a guildy were talking about how Ragnaros will eventually say: "By fire be purged......and snap into a slim jim!!"

ROFLMAO

You're right about this, but atleast they don't have the Mountain-Dew logo or even name in/one them. As long as they steer clear of making mistakes like that, I don't mind it so much if they do it this way. Reward the player somehow, but don't turn us into walking billboards.

I just converted my accounts over to Battle.net and merged all 4 of them into the single account. I have all 4 in my name and all assigned to the same email address, so it works if you do too, anyone. Just make sure you hit the right links and buttons when accepting and all will be good. I now use one email address as the login name for all accounts and one single pass. when prompted, i then use my authenticator key, well worth the $6, so don't be cheap and buy one. I enter one key across all 4 accounts at once at the same time using Keyclone and the numberpad. The login screen changes a bit to give you a drop down menu under the login name if you have more than one account merged into your Battle.net account, so just select the account you want to log into on each screen. Battle.net also asks for your authenticator key once you try logging into your account if you have one registered to it, so there is no need to worry about your account being highjacked thru here if you have one of these. I just tried to log into the same account twice using the same authenticator code and had no success on the second login. Each key can only be used once then it is blocked from being used again. However, if you have more than one account you're tryin to log into like we all here do, you can use one single key on all accounts, but you have to use that key within a givin timeframe before it's locked out from being used again. I even tried to log into a different account with it, and kept telling me the pass was wrong. Login and passwords were right, but the key was already blocked and that kept me from getting in.

How this authenticator works I figure, is once you assign it to which ever account you want to use it for, it takes the serial number off the back of it and tells the account which model you have. The account then grabs a list of codes programed for that model and assigns that list to the account. Once you use the key, it blocks it from the list and keeps from being used again. As to how many numbers are on this list, I have no clue. Nor do I know what'll happen once all are used.


Edit:

Just tried to log into my Battle.net account after trying this out seeing if you could use the same key multiple times. WoW didn't tell me this when I kept getting the typical "failed to log in" message, but apparently it locked my damn authenticator as well. With it now being after hours for me to call up Billing Support to get it unlocked, I now have to wait till tomorrow to do so. If this ever happens to you, make sure you have a serial key code handy, as I suspect they will ask me for one to verify I actually own the accounts. Don't have them right now, or else I'd try calling.
