welcome back old friend http://www.leagueofpirates.com/sirvival/queuedance.html

Pretty much. Anyone upset by the trivial problems so far has a brain so warped by selfishness and 2010+ MMORPG ADHD that they can't see the forest for the trees.

Rival pservs is possible, but why would Blizzard bother, when they could just escalate their limp-wristed monthly C&D's to full fledged prosecution? Plus they haven't even bothered to stop all the nostalrius/elysium advertisement on their own official forum. They've been doing the bare minimum to protect their IP this whole time.

I'm going to go with an irrationally venomous pro-Legion blizzkid fanbase. They have the strongest motive out of any possible culprit, as they're collectively shitting themselves that this will get big enough that Blizzard will take notice and reconsider the steps taken that made WoW into a daily login facebook rpg.

Go back to Draenor, you sub-human pig!

Be glad for massive queue times. They are the opposite of empty servers, and the more bloated and run-away the launch numbers get, the more likely it is we'll get more servers. And if this project gets more servers, then Blizzard is going to see what they've been waiting and watching for: public interest in classic that is growing, as opposed to shrinking. Myself, I don't plan to even start until things settle down a bit.

Blah blah blah nerd rage. Hey, for a more entertaining angle of conversation, who do you think is responsible for these attacks? Put on your tin foil hats and imagine with me. Venomously pro-Legion fanboys? Or could it be BLIZZARD THEMSELVES? I'm going with the former. The latter isn't bloody likely, considering Blizzard allows people to openly endorse this private server on their own forum. They're obviously tolerating this project as a means to gauge public interest in classic. But the irrational venom on either side of the fan base is a clear motive.

Please schedule one new stress test for every angry beg by arucado for server launch.

What's the matter, Ghaz? Bites slowing down over on the official WoW forums? Nobody who's passionate about vanilla is intimidated by the hydra losing another head. Every server dies. You read that bit by the Nost devs about making their code public after Elysium finishes capitalizing on the first dibs/gets pounded into the mulch by legal might? It seems common practice to start copy pasting character databases, too. Elysium got that. Elysium's successor will get the same treatment. There isn't much Blizzard can do to stop server "reincarnation". You're looking at an endless game of legal whack-a-mole, with a nice little twist - the same mole comes up out of a different hole, good as new. It can only be stopped by people losing interest in vanilla, which is something that hasn't even peaked yet. Now imagine what it's going to be like when this community gets used to this sort of bend-like-the-willow legal kung fu. When they get fast at it, and new servers start popping up in weeks instead of months. This beast can't be killed.
