I actually think 6 months would be great… but then you have to do silly things to keep loot & PvP in line with the original timeline. 4x ranking speed. 4x loot drops. Etc.
SoM timeline felt great and it was a fairly painless fix: double raid loot + double ranking speed.
It didn’t. You still had to farm in the open world. The raids in SoM were actually balanced around using full consumables.
…unless you bought gold.
Personally, I think 1 year of a Seasonal Server is just fine. As the point of Seasonal is temporary, anyway.
For those of us that prefer to take our time, that’s what PERMA is for.
I don’t think you’re reading. Just imposing your line of thought.
I think farming dark runes for your raid’s healers requires a group, right?
…unless you buy gold.
Gold wasn’t that useful in SoM because boosters were gone.
Most people bought gold for boosts, not that much for endgame content.
Wbuffs were and are still heavily relevant for entire servers coordination and cooperation, that does not compare to farming runes for casters at all.
It is like saying that making titan’s flasks for your tanks are equally socially relevant to running ZG to coordinate a head drop with other guilds and even horde side.
Not to mention the alchemy table, for us Alchemists.
I’m sure ALL raids (and the market) likes flasks, right? 
Windows of time certain content is the pinnacle and others are unavailable. People want the server to go through phases again as a whole.
No ones whimsical “lets start over on an already progressed realm!” is remotely the same.
Sounds terrible tbh.
6 month server into another 2 year wait for the next one?
Barf
I like 6 months in theory, but yeah, the downtime is a problem. I don’t think the average gamer wants to play fresh classic twice a year 
I guess we gotta wait for the 2 months of HC official “spotlight” before we hear anything
Yeah, I’m not a fan of the mishandeling of Classic.
Not sure why Wrath Classic retired servers but not Classic Era. Classic Era got clustered, instead.
On top of that, no perma BC Classic. I was under the impression, we’d have legacy servers, but I guess only Vanilla and Wrath.
I’ll admit.
I’m not a real pvper.
AB is more fun for me than WSG but my personal ranking is:
AB
WSG
50 ft of crap
AV
It could benefit
I would not play Classic on a short loop like that, but I’m almost certain there is a niche community that kept the you-know-what-scene alive for a decade that are into that kind of thing.
I’m totally honest about the fact that I missed the 2019 Classic launch and what I really wanted was to do Classic launch through the end of The Burning Crusade and probably quit at WotLK. Whether or not I would redo it depends on how the first go went and if I had the time for it.
Since, there’s no perma BC, ATM, I can only think of four scenarios, to make it exist, again:
Oh, so you’ll just abandon ship? Why should Blizz accomadate you, if you’re just gonna quit, regardless?
You either like playing Classic WoW or you don’t. Classic is NOT meant to be “new”/“progression”. That’s what Retail is for.
I’m playing Classic 'cause I like the original formatting/layout. Not gear up and bounce, until the next “new” thing.
2019 Classic was way too long. Half the people I know quit before BWL or battlegrounds even opened because there was just too long between each phase. I ended up sticking it out mostly because of covid completely changing my life.
1 year is a good middle ground. Faster than classic, but not too fast.
WotLK is a good story with sub par game play except Ulduar. I can have my own opinion on it thanks
I’m not saying you can’t. You just don’t really seem interested in Classic, at all. This includes Vanilla AND BC.
You ONLY seem interested in the Classic Lauch experience, its phase cycles and BC’s equal journey before dipping out. You don’t care about ANY perma state.
The likelihood of a non-seasonal Classic launch to BC is practically non-existentant. You’ll have better luck with a seasonal that only goes through one version of the game and NOT two.
