PvP Gear in Cataclysm

Cynwise explains all the types of PvP gear available to players now that Season 9 has started.  It's a complex system that is much changed from what was available pre-Cataclysm.

Yet Another Phishing Scam (the Gawker Hack)

WOW player email boxes are crammed full of phishing emails pretending to be Blizzard warning about last weekend's Gawker hack and asking for a password reset,  but some of those emails are actually from Blizzard.  An example of the real thing is shown at Kotaku.  I imagine a visit to your Battle.net account will help you figure out what's real and what's fake if you used the same email address for Gawker and Blizzard accounts.
