I just signed up and i am currently downloading the client.
Although i played a lot on other private servers i was never satisfied with pvp, therefor i support the idea of having a PVE server.
I do like to play in battlegrounds every now and then but since i have never experienced the end-game content at it's full extent i would like to team up with others to reach that goal.
However, since this server uses 1x xprate it will take a long time to get where i want so hopefully there will be enough people willing to do the same.
As a sidenote i also hope that GM's will actively monitor people's behaviour in general (world) chat.
After seeing many insults and other bad behaviour on other servers i don't want to see that as a standard "must accept it" advise.
I've seen good and nice people turn away from the game due to this while the 'bad' people seem to be proud of their achievement to make others miserable and even get support from a GM. (note : mostly because of falsified information on fora and such)
Anyhow, im going to give it a try and hopefully i will be able to enjoy playing again.
For the record: i started playing WoW when version 1.1 was released. Pretty much from the start of it all
