What does mandatory beta mean?

Some of us don't handle surprises well. Notice would have been nice. I'm happy to help though.

What should we be doing in Beta? I've done beta testing for games before, but I really just fooled around. The only time I seriously beta tested was for a mud (MajorMUD). IT was mostly just logging stuff and running a spell check =P Also just testing combat features. So I guess just play and report anything unusual?

This kind of works out good, IM trying to get my friend to play. Now we can both log in. I didn't feel like applying for an IP exemption until she said she would play. She only ever played WoW and she liked it because the models were pretty (Aion too, but we quit that pretty quick).
