2008, and I like it much better now.
Since 2005. 
Since the first week the game came out. 2004.
I started in 2007 during TBC on some private realm before moving to retail EU in Wrath, then to US in MoP. In fact this was my first character I ever created in WoW and I’ve been recreating it every time I moved.
Mid-Vanilla…But not seriously.
I think in Spring of 2005. I’ve taken a couple of breaks, and I’m hella casual, but mostly I’ve had an active account since then.
First max level character was a dwarf priest healer. Don’t even remember her name, but she was on Whisperwind.
2014 I joined retail but I started on pservers back in 2008-2009
Made this guy in March 2005 (as a NE) and bought the game because I wanted a distraction between working on my master’s thesis. I had never played an MMO before and the cinematic for the game hooked me.
Mostly play now to unwind after work; it’s just a habit these days.
I was here at Launch with this Hunter. I wish they had special titles for that
i made my very first toon in very late 2006 eary 2007. the first toon I leveled to 70 was either in 2007 early 2008. both of those are lost to time as they were on an account belonging to one of my kids.
my oldest toon that I still play and have at max level was created some time in mid or early 2008.
On launch day 2004 I created a Ret Pally.
At this point I refuse to type “/played.”
Since 2006
First toon, that would be me, AuntB, Hi. I think it was 2008? And I’m still here.
Since the beginning and never broke subscription in over 20 years. Perhaps Blizz could kick a title, t-shirt, a free month, or a mount, nah, not blizz.

2008 to 2025 why you ??>>
I’ve played since 2005 on and off. My last real guild was in 2016 though as the game became so try hard and toxic in PVE content.
