MMORPG - Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game
I originally started with a trial, and then purchased the retail versions. Now my keys are scattered across two accounts under one email address, and the website self help I was unable to find directions to make this work, and the normal "merge" function won't allow it to merge. So I have had to contact Blizzard's tech support.

Potential RPG Research Question

But we just can't get a hold of a human being to speak to. Here is what has happened far...
