I've played WoW since the start of Vanilla and have played in top server and world guilds (top 50), but finally quit at the end of Warlords. I've never played on a private server before. I have a few questions.
 
	1) I went to the link https://elysium-project.org/play to register a new account. I don't have any characters to transfer and for about a week now did not receive an e-mail to authenticate that account. I realize there are still problems with that process. Question: Do I need to go through that process just to create a brand new character and start there? If not, where do I register an account after I've downloaded the client?
 
	2) Will the process for creating a new account on the new PVE server on Jan. 7 be the same as in the above link I posted? Or will there be an entirely different process?
 
	Thanks. Looking forward to a return to the sense of community I know most of felt in Vanilla.
