Duckling and Cezar (thank you both!) summed us up well regarding Grobbulus.
We’ve been playing on Grobb for over 3 years now, many of us stayed around after the game moved to TBC and haven’t stopped. Some even day 1 Grobb mob.
I describe our server as a small hippie tribal commune. It’s very active for what it is… about 100 players total. Both factions raiding (alliance has cleared Naxx, horde just got bwl down and is starting aq40 soon). Both factions have a friendly/hateful rivalry against eachother.
It’s sort of like solo self found but on a guild scale. No AH, we just trade and barter internally. Super community oriented and helpful people. At the end of the day, we’re two raiding guilds. The raids are the center of gravity every week. But people do run lower dungeons, especially if people are asking and need help.
Always happy to chat and explain our odd little world to those interested! Here’s a semi recent post too: [Era] A Call to Grobbulus, Horde Victorious
