Just logged on this server using the ptr client. I guess it is just a remnant from the old ptr. who knows.

Translation:

If you use the PTR client for the 2.1 patch, there is apparently a server up called 'Royal Apothecary Society'.

He is saying that if you login using the test client (found in /WoWTest/WoW.exe) there is a server up called "Royal Apothecary Society".

edit: what he said

Royal Apothecary Society= RAS, which is the first name of the devious lich Ras Frostwhisper!

The rabbit hole just got a bit deeper guys, this thread is blowing my mind.

GIS for RAS.

The plot thickens:

The reticular activating system is the name given to part of the brain (the reticular formation and its connections) believed to be the center of arousal and motivation in animals (including humans).

Must check for new arena items. Would love it if they messed up and some of the stuff they are working on for next week is there.

Well, I dont know how I could check the Arena rewards... but the epic Bracers/belt/boots/neck for every class are missing from the lvl 70 armor vendor.

Now this isn't what I think royal means.

You can only create new characters - doesn't seem to be any possible way to transfer a character onto this server. If you think you can get a character there to level 58 or whatever by Tuesday, though, feel free.

Gwaihir · 06/05/07, 4:59 PM

ah, too bad mysterious copies of characters from long past test realms were not there, like they were for the 2.1 PTR.

Funnily enough RAS means "Rien A Signaler" in French, which can be translated to "Nothing To Report". Maybe that's really all there is to it
