Log into the game by Dec. 14 to earn the feat of strength.

Just as a reminder, players who log into World of Warcraft between today and Dec. 14 will receive the "WoW's 6th Anniversary" feat of strength. The game actually turned six years old on Nov. 23, but now you have a full two weeks to grab the achievement before it disappears. Everybody who logs in for the launch of Cataclysm on Dec. 7 will earn the feat of strength, so it's a pretty easy accomplishment.

You won't receive a pet this year, but you will get a note in your mailbox from the dev team. You can read it after the jump. How long have you been playing World of Wacraft? What's the "/played" time on your main?

Wow, another year has gone by for WoW!

We wanted to thank you again for continuing to play World of Warcraft with us. With the return of a certain very large dragon (spoiler alert!), this is going to be a rough year for the world of Azeroth. On the other hand, that means heroes are going to be needed more than ever.

Get out there and defend a shattered world!
