Apparently Blizzard gives out free mounts to loyal customers. "Veterans" the GM called it.
Friend of me got Grinning Reaver for free when asking for a refund on an appearance change cuz he ****ed up, even though he said he didnt want it.
I made a ticket literally saying "so why havent I gotten a mount? I'm like a sick pro customer."
He asked me which mount I wanted, and I said I wanted a celestial steed. I got a celestial steed.
So for those this might apply too, you should make a ticket and ask for it, if you want a fkin mount.
He also said there was a CD on this."Usually about 6-12 months, it's not really a timed sort of thing but these offers are clearly noted on your account so it's taken into account if an opportunity presents itself." (I asked)
I never make tickets, so the "opportunity" wouldnt really present itself.
Gogo. Everybody loves free shit.
Just FYI: I've used a shit ton of money on stupid shit, and have had accounts since vanilla that r on that battle.net, and my friend who also got a mount has had his account since vanilla.
So it's hard to tell what defines "veteran" on their part.
