I was in the second batch and still haven't been flagged, so I guess they're just AFK...

I would agree if it weren't for the fact that they are handing out a lot of keys to popular streamers and advertising events for extra keys. It is a shame that they aren't prioritizing addon authors like in previous expansions but looking towards PR instead.

Even this "we'll flag your account" instead of just giving keys to addon authors as they have in the past seems stupid. The only imaginable reason to do it this way is to prevent addon authors from giving away their keys to other people, but that doesn't really make sense when they're giving out keys like candy elsewhere. I've already had two people offer me their extra beta keys.

Fortunately, the current inability to load custom textures, annoying floating point errors, etc. are a bit of a turn-off as far as development efforts go; I probably won't even bother trying to update any of my addons until things are a bit further along anyway.

Anybody know why Curse isn't handing out beta keys this time? They did for Cata and MoP at least ..

Is it because most of the addon authors host their addons here too?

I was in the third wave and got flagged. Maybe they wanted to do it in bigger batches?

Me too. All our complaining must have fixed it.

But... "PTR Character Copy is in maintenance. Please try again later." How am I supposed to debug addons without my transmog gear, Blizzard? How?!

:-( still not flagged from batch 2, guess Blizzard hates me....or I mistyped my email address. Oh well I'll just keep playing the waiting game. Maybe changing my battle.net email a week before applying for beta access was a bad idea.

Be sure to check your account at Battle.net, as you won't always get an email.

They also brought back the division by zero errors, so look out for that.

That was the first place I checked. I will check again in the am. Is there anyway to see what email address I actually submitted? I was #88

Exactly. Pay to get a chance to work hard in bugged environment. Thanks to WoWInterface I got invite to MoP Beta 2 years ago as author. But now I less and less excited to put my game time ($15 per month) into making addons and keeping it intact. For myself yes, but those "you must do <list of changes> or I will deny to use your addon!" - am I need so badly to pay money to get a chance to work?

... try it from the character selection screen. I tried it on the website first, too.
