Was just going to post about that, I tried it this morning and it actually helps a lot, cut my ping to inside 100 and drops as low as 60 where I was getting 150-200 with before, crowded areas are not nearly as laggy now.
Dropped me down to 20ms in Org, nice find Mith!

Thank you!!
I installed it and tried it out. Before, my latency/ping was 350-450. Now I'm 200 to 250. I'll get to see what it does w/ Bad Company 2 later today. Hopefully it can bring down the ping on that as well so I can stop getting kicked from some servers for high ping.
(Just alt tabbed back in to look and I'm under 200 now!)

I would love to provide the link where a Blue stated as much, but unfortunately Blizzard erased their forums. If you do a web search, you can see hits to this information. Yet, when you click the link, it leads you to the new forums.

WTFast is being used by entire guilds, by winning arena teams, at Internet cafes and by troops overseas. If WTFast was snake oil, this would not be happening and users would not continue renewing their accounts month to month.
Perhaps I'm being too subtle, so I'll say this again directly: Can you please ask one of those multitude of customers to provide an endorsement here? Naturally, if you can find one who already has an account with VN, it would be even better.
Offer them a free month if they will come here and back your claims.
Is that not fair?

1. WTFast is not a "placebo", it actually gets results.
Sure thing. And we are supposed to believe you just because you pretend you are cool.
Give us a break. Your service is bullcrap only feeding on getting money from people who don't know better.

"With Blizzard's new IP checking system, hacking WoW accounts is virtually impossible now."
Maybe this guy and his service are legit, I have no idea. But...
1) I would prefer to hear directly from Blizzard that it is impossible.
2) ANY claim that anything is impossible is usually not true.
3) This is the internet, always treat everything with a healthy dose of scepticism.

Skimmed through, thought I would touch on some points...
4.With the new IP security that Blizz does, it shouldn't even be possible to hack accounts anymore
Unless, you click on every link posted by morons with <10 posts, and get a keylogger from said link/destination. Nothing Blizz does can stop that type of "hacking", which is the most prevalent form by far.
Either peddle your wares on a less informed populace, or stfu and accept the verbal thrashing you are going to receive here.
If you were honest about providing a legit service, I find it hard to believe that you wouldn't attempt to work with Blizzard to get the word out about such a "useful" tool.
On the contrary, Blizz has stated that hacked accounts that use your service will NOT be restored...
Now why would they say such a thing?

And this is what we have to work against. I can completely eliminate all risk by offering a free WTFast account and even a free WoW account to try WTFast out; I can offer links to 3rd party feedback, unbiased survey results, etc. and still there are doubters that call WTFast snake oil without even trying it.
When I started this business there are many, many tech-savvy users that told me that what I wanted to do with WTFast is impossible but through empirical evidence I showed them that they were wrong. Obviously I am fighting a losing battle at this forum. Just remember WTFast now, and when someone you know recommends WTFast to you a few weeks down the road, or when you see us making deals with major game publishers, maybe you will take WTFast more seriously!
*** Edit - Regarding the supposed blue post by Blizzard stating that people using proxies that get hacked would not be restored... I know of several blue posts that stated there is nothing wrong with using a proxy and using a proxy will NEVER get your WoW account banned. Obviously not all of the blue posts are correct. Think logically, with thousands and thousands of users on proxies, Blizzard is not going to ban an account unless they actually have good reason to do so. Using a proxy alone is never enough, as has been stated by Blizzard several times. ***
Have fun playing Cataclysm!

Maybe I'll open up a ticket ingame and talk to a GM about this service.

I recommend taking up my offer on a free WTFast/WoW account so you can test for yourself how Blizzard's new IP security works. You will be able to see that hacking your WoW account is now virtually impossible.
1. Use WTFast with "login with my own IP address" enabled, you will never receive an account lock message.
2. Use WTFast with "login with my own IP address" disabled. Manually choose different WTFast servers, each time you choose a different server/IP, you will generate a new account lock message, requiring you to change your password (since you are using a different IP each time).
Now imagine a hacker even trying to "hack" your account, as soon as they even try to log in from a different IP, the account will be locked by battle.net and they will never be able to do any damage to it.
The one thing a GM might commment on is related to the issue of IPs changing, but we have already addressed this problem with WTFast.
Thanks
