I am honestly hoping that they would do a collector’s edition mount for wrath classic, just like they did for burning crusade classic. But it seems like they are not doing that this time.

the leak that got hte prepatch date correct said theres a bundle sale on the same day as well i think
What’s that ? I can charge in combat 
It’s been discussed. Y’all are headed to Era. Not Wrath.
Prepatch techically is wotlk so I’d assume it’s 80 version.
I didn’t see if this has been addressed yet, On pre-patch will we get the class updates? I mean if DKs will be available and inscriptions can be learned on pre-patch day, would that mean all classes will get updated to wrath skill set and talents? We’ll just be lvl locked till launch.
Please don’t, it’s one of the worste things that ever came to wow… that and flying mounts

People seem to forget that… I don’t mind because I know it’s not as hard to find groups as people are letting on to believe. I really hated when people would just quit after waiting forever but I wouldn’t mind it coming in the ICC patch.

Not running the risk of having to remove more emotes

You’re wrong. Blizz re-made their mind here: When SoM ends, SoM players can choose to go either to an Era or to a TCBB (Wrath) server of their choice.
The only thing we do not know is when.
oh you mean the patch that it actually came in originally yea i’d be cool with that
Just wanted to also confirm what the reply said, SOM will be able to transfer to Classic and not just Era

Oh nice. That’s good news then.
maby we should step the PRO-RDF Campaign up a notch and tweet en mass to the wow classic devs? I know Brian Birmingham is one of the leads for wrath classic. I’m not sure who the other one is. Holly Longdale? Brian Holinka?

Yes. Just like we got 41pt talents at BCC prepatch. Basically everything but Northrend will go live with prepatch.

poggers wrath hype
The “fix” to RDF is to only make it available for heroics. Then the people that don’t want it, won’t have it for leveling, so people will have to level by going out into the world, and the people that do want it, will be able to quickly group to grind heroic gear to get ready for raiding. Win/win, everyone wins.
3.3(x) is not “halfway through” Wrath of the Lich King, it is the last major content patch. ICC lasting a long time chronologically is not “halfway through the expansion”, it is “half the time the expansion lasted”. RDF in retrospect really just seems like a catch-up mechanic to begin with, one that would be heavily exploited at the start of the expansion (2 extra emblems for completing a dungeon adds up to be a lot). If they were to release it (which they said they are not) then it would have to be at the end of the expansion’s content.
I’ll say it again: “Halfway through the expansion” is a statement relative to the content of it. ICC is not the halfway point. The halfway point for content would be somewhere around end of Uld/start of ToC/Revamped Ony.
Edit: It’s not a “moot” point at all considering RDF at the start of the expansion would be a huge balance concern regarding the emblem comment I just mentioned. It would also not help the gold situation considering that you get a sum of gold at the end of each dungeon as well. 15-20g a completion might not sound like a lot but when you add in that it applies to 5 people you’re already getting a lot of extra gold generated - not to mention the extra emblems. Math that gold amount amongst the entire WoW population and things’re going to be more inflated than they already are.
Edit-edit: the main problem I have with RDF is threefold: one of those reasons is aforementioned, the second being that it incentivizes impersonality. Part of the social-skill-check is the formalities (whispering, group organizing, etc). RDF takes that all out of the picture and makes anonymity the primary M.O. (allows people to be the holiest of haploids to everyone else without any consequences other than maybe a kick). RDF, if anything, should be the thing that doesn’t give extra rewards for using it; you should be incentivized (end of the dungeon chest or something?) to make groups yourself, not invite/be a jerk, and completing the dungeon. I don’t think it was simply the convenience that killed out-world dungeoning, it was that you were also given more rewards for doing said ‘more convenient things’. That I think is why the ‘anti RDFers’ (don’t know why people who like RDF feel the need to label those who disagree with them, but ok) are probably most upset with the RDF. Sure, you can bring your 3-man premade into a RDF queue, but even if that one dude was a jerk you still couldn’t kick him (premades required 4 votes instead of 3). The fact was that it didn’t matter you were party lead before you queued; the group you made was no longer your group anymore, it was the RDF system’s group.
The jerk-bag problem is my last concern in that there’s no repercussions from it other than being kicked - and that’s it. Granted, this repercussion is mitigated enough on Classic-X servers now too given that internet/gaming “culture” (if one can be so generous as to call it that) has become much less palatable than, say, it was on WoW’s original releases (hard to believe). There’s no real “social checks and balances” anymore and the theory is that RDF would work to make that worse. Again, hard to believe, but that’s not a theoretical pond that I’d like to dip my toe in anytime soon.
