I hope this is an omen to me, I play since before naxxramas and NERVER openned a fucking golden legendary.
There are pity timers for golden commons and golden rares, which suggest there should also be pity timers for golden epics and legendaries (in case of legendary it should be 300+ packs). Also opening pack without epic\legendary card increase chance to get epic/legendary in the next pack. Same, probably, applied to the golden cards. So keep opening those packs and you will get it. Eventually.
I can promise you there is no pity timer for golden legendaries. It took me about 1000 packs to get my first one, and my only one ever. Take my word for it, or don't, all the same.
The same rules applied for golden and regular cards: packs should be from the same set.
There's lots of people who have been playing since beta and have still yet to open a golden legendary, so I doubt that there's actually a pity timer for them. Blizzard has never confirmed pity timers for golden cards, iirc.
After a year has passed, I've finally returned to this thread. I added Classic neutrals and will continue with Naxx soon. Some changes were also made since my opinions have changed a bit regarding certain cards.

It happens at the start of the first expansion of each year. All the sets from 2 years ago will be rotated out.
