I hate not knowing if it's me or the server....

Cool, thanks! Just wanted to know for sure! ^_^

I'm only lvl 35, why can't I transfer to Elysium? I put in months of playtime already. I work 6 days a week, I dont have time to level on the new server all over again.

Hi, I'm playing on Anathema, as a sort of content tourist, doing all the quests I can find on Alliance. It's the sole purpose I'm playing Vanilla. See all the lore and quests that were removed in Cataclysm. However, I'm stuck now. I need two Elixirs of Minor Fortitude to advance a quest in Stonetalon Mountains. According to wikis, only players can craft these. However, with the low population on Anathema, there don't seem to be any Alchemists selling the inferior potion. To any Alchemist on Anatahema who could help me; it's not much but I'm willing to mail back 10g to you as thanks, if you mail me these potions. Or we can meet up and trade, too, but I don't always have time to log on. Up to you. Hope someone can help!

Yeah I've been trying in-game for a while, but you know, it's Anathema. I can't even find rogues to open my lockboxes, lol. It's beginning to look like I need to create an Alchemist alt. Kind of sucks, though, because I only have ~3 hours a day to play, so that's going to eat up a day or two.

Can't log in. I see in the tweets that it was supposed to be back up 5 hours ago? Is it down again?

This is pretty much the only reason I play. I don't care about end-game. I don't care about Vanilla. I love leveling characters in a living world. I love seeing hundreds of other players in every zone I quest in, doing the same quests. With Nost Core gone, are we going back to 6k pop-cap? Because that's a killer for me. I'd rather play Retail at that point.

By what standard does it feel like a living world when there's ~50 players in every zone on average?

So I'm leveling two characters, going back and forth the servers. Some people say some Item List files are in conflict between the two servers, though, due to having a different patch or something, so I would not get the proper item stats in the mouse-over info or something? I'm new to WoW so I have no idea how this works. Does it really happen? If so, what do I do? Keep two sets of the files and replace them whenever I switch?

Thank you. Just to clarify, there's no setbacks from deleting the WDB folder, is there?

What am I supposed to do? Someone has spawned an Infernal in Moonbrook and as far as I can tell, it's a fellow Alliance member doing it. It keeps getting protected and healed and no level 60's want to help, despite constantly running straight past Moonbrook. Is this the real Vanilla experience? Being forced to log off and hope nobody's trolling the next time I play? Why is there no ToS against camping quest NPC's and such? Seriously, what am I supposed to do?

Thank you for your work, sir! Good luck!

Because I know people are ваууing stupid, I wasn't born yesterday. It's the most reliable fact in the world. Are people stupid? Yes. Will they do stupid фекал if you give them the tools for it? Yes. There are no exceptions to this. So don't give them the ваууing tools.

You have to be extremely naive to think they won't.

And the servers went back down right after they announced .wr off in chat, too. 3 hour maintenance turned into 7 hours because of this stupid little crap that annoyed a few people. When I started playing I was convinced I'd make monthly donations, but since then, I have lost all intentions of supporting these guys. Server crashes often enough without them intentionally turning a 3-hour maintenance period into a 7 hour one, then lying to us about "the maintenance going well". You want to serve the community? Turn the servers on. Stop implementing half baked ideas before it goes past the test realms in 100% working order.

Just you wait. There's going to be hundreds of people trying to trade who forgot to turn it off. You'll send them whispers with an offer or whatever, and never get replies. You'll be left wondering if they don't want your offer of they left .wr on. What a stressful, dumb idea. For what? Because you received 1 gold seller whisper per hour? Oh no, call the police.

RIP Trade .wr off is stupid

Nobody could possibly give me a single good reason as to why quest collectibles should take so long to spawn on a custom server that has way more players than Blizzard's servers did back in the day. Stop being stubborn. Fix this.

I just spent an hour gathering Wood in the Elwynn Logging camp. I timed it and it took 9-10 minutes for every piece of wood to respawn. I don't care about people's misguided opinions. This needs to be reduced to a MINUTE tops. If you want to have an interesting queue mechanic, a minute is all you need. Not being able to find this crap COMPLETELY goes against the roleplay, so nobody can give that excuse, either. Just fix it. There's absolutely zero reason not to. Simply make the rates high. There's 12000 players on the server. TEN times more than what Blizzard designed these droprates for! Elysium team, I was going to donate. But I won't until this is fixed. I'm sure you couldn't care less if you lose just one $50 donation, but I digress; pull your head out of your asses and fix this! I WORK 6 DAYS A WEEK. I DON'T WANT TO SPEND ONE GODDAMN HOUR ON WAITING FOR RESPAWNING COLLECTIBLES! What is the matter with you people, honestly?

I wrote a mock message in general chat, if one were to read it, it's obviously mocking the gold advertisements. But that message never went through and now I cannot chat at all, not in General, not in vicinity, no messages actually go through. It's been like this for half a day, so I don't know what to think. Everyone else seems to be fine, I even had nearby players trying to talk to me while questing, and I couldn't respond.

Good to know, thanks! It's gone now, after 4 more hours, so I'm glad for that.
