Quote: With the new Recruit-A-Friend program you can earn an exclusive Zhevra mount, receive a FREE month of game time, and gain access to other exciting in-game benefits. From the moment your friend creates a character and starts playing you’ll both earn triple the experience when grouped together and have the ability to summon one another from anywhere in the world. Also, for every two levels of experience your friend earns, they can grant one level of experience to any one of your characters.

Although there have been some positive responses, the reaction on the official forums is largely negative. A number want to know if they can receive retroactive credit for past referrals. And there is, of course, the predictions of soon-to-arrive hordes of multiboxers.
For my part, although I see this as good for those who are legitimately bringing new friends to WoW, I think it's going to be widely abused, and it really sends the message that the old world sucks and you should get out of it ASAP. That's maybe a bit harsh, but as a friend put it: "Outland is basically WoW2, except you have to play through the longer and emptier prequel before you can play it,"
