I guess I’m curious on what you base this sentiment on… the idea that players get bored of TBC and go back to their now dead Classic Era servers? It seems like not many people actually PAID to have their toons copied.
I guess you truly miss the entire point. (maybe Rogues just so used to playing solo with no friends you don’t even notice?)
MMORPG games like wow are designed to have large groups interacting (world pvp, 40 man instances, que pop for bg’s, people out questing and gathering materials to vendor on AH: rare drops, recipes, etc;
I brought this issue that is happening now BEFORE Classic even launched in 2019 and specifically told Bliz to DESIGNATE what servers will be ‘Forever Classic’ servers and what servers will be moving on to “Classic +/TBC” and beyond.
If people know they will be with others on their realms after all phases there would still be a strong community from people like me who know they will only ever play a Vanilla version of Wow. vs the retail/TBC fans that moved on.
IMO the only way to solve this is launch a handful of Fresh start lvl 1 servers.
