I have seen many people who have managed to get WoW accounts, but still haven't gotten the Secret Questions. I recently thought about a perfect way to do this, but it only works with certain people, and requires some research.
What's my method? Myspace/Face Book surveys.
I wrote up this survey (SQ's in bold) Quote:
Name:
Birthday:
Eye Color:
Hair Color:
Height:
Right or Left Handed:
The Shoes You Wore Today: Mothers Maiden Name:
Your Weakness:
Your Fears:
Your Favorite Food:
Goal You Would Like To Achieve This Year:
First Thoughts When Waking Up: High school
Your Most Missed Memory:
Pepsi or Coke:
Single or Group Dates:
Chocolate or Vanilla:
Do You Smoke: First pet's name
Do You Swear:
Have You Been In Love:
Do You Want To Get Married:
Do You Want To Have Kids:
Your Favorite Color: Name of the street you live on
What Kind Or Car Do You Drive:
Do You Have A Job:
Do You Have A Boyfriend:
Fave TV Show:
Fave Movie: What city were you born in
What Are You Thinking rRight Now:
Have You Ever Cheated On Your Boyfriend/Girlfriend:
Have You Ever Been Cheated On:
Do You Have Any Pets:
Whats The First Thing That You Notice About The Opposite Sex:
Best Physical Feature:
Most Overused Phrase: Dads Middle name
Love or Money:
Kiss or Hug:
The Biggest Life Lesson Learned So Far:

| Start by googling their account name, and then email (If you have it) in search of their myspace. If it's a gmail, add it to a new gmail, and myspace has a feature for finding your gmail friends on Myspace. Add them to friends, most myspace users will accept any friends request. Afterwards, post this bulliten,a nd wait for their response. May not always work, but I've had it work at least twice. | Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.

But apart from that it has great potential |

I recommend adding something like "if you participate in this survey, you have a chance to win..." and then list some extravagant prizes. That'll increase the chance of people responding to it. Then, say that everyone who fills out the survey will get some sort of minor prize, or some money, or something. Also, make the address look legit.
And then again...this is assuming you know the person's email.
I also think this could work in reverse. Send this survey out to stupid people on Myspace (or any website) who appear to have something WoW-related in their profiles. You'll get their first name, last name, and SQA. The only problem then would be getting the username.

"Do you play a MMORPG?"
Then you are a lucky.
It's week of the MMORPG and all gamers get 25 dollars and a chance to win an alianware computer.
fill in the game you play and the account name so we can verify.
Game:
account name:
it can be perfectionised though ^^

Many of my friends, and girlfriend, use myspace. They have told me that if a survey offers a chance to win a prize, not only would they not do it, they would assume it was a scam, and remove that person from their friends list. The survey by itself is harmless. Maybe even make multiple accounts, all friends with your victim, and do the survey. It may improve your chances of getting them to do it.
I just feel like some thing like, Quote:

They may not think it's a scam, but they'd have no reason to fill it out, so they wouldn't. |

I'm assuming you don't have one, or don't know much about them.
They post "Survey's" up, so they can post useless information about themselves, for no reason at all. It's what they do. Google "Myspace Surveys" for an example. |

Furthermore there isn't any reason of benefit for the survey maker. Even online survey sites don't give out 25 dollar/40 dollar items with just one survey, let alone one which is just a crappy 4 answer survey. |

They do surveys like this, FOR NO REASON. Bump. |
