It has/had nothing to do with pride, or even numbers. Merging two guilds doesn’t help anything when top guild A,B, and C keep stealing your best geared tanks and other players.

Why do you care though? I’m 48 on my main, this has 0 impact on me. 90% of vanilla players joined the game after Dire Maul was already released.
People just need to be perpetually offended and will jump through whatever mental hurdles they can in order to find that offense.

So it’s just a matter of keeping up with the Joneses?
Cracks me up how many people are so wrapped up in what everybody else is doing.

Because I care about the vanilla experience and what this could mean for future Classic content release. Classic content should be given the proper time in order to stay as close as possible to vanilla. If they’re releasing Dire Mail early that could be an indication they’ll continue this process of early content release.
I can’t wait for Naxx, but the timing should be right. There’s no good reason to rush this stuff. If you’re ahead of everyone then sit back, take a deep breath and enjoy it. Level some alts. Farm some gold. PvP. Stop to smell the roses.

Uhm … who cares? I mean, if you’re lower level, then it doesn’t matter whether Dire Maul is released or not. Whereas those who are level 60 do in fact care.

Homeboy you’re level 53 you’re not missing out on anything by getting to Dire Maul a week late. QQ

And who defines that timing? You? The % of the player base? What is the magic number 60%? 40%? 100%? Please. You come off as entitled.
So basically if anyone is playing more than you they should stop so you can catch up? Just play how you want and stop crying
Exactly no changes you have to work to progress if you want easy mode go play retail. Classic requires effort to progress otherwise you get left behind.
Nope. Blizzard did on March 7th 2005 when they released Dire Maul 104 days after launch.

57 actually. Less than a bar to 58 and I expect to be 60 within the next few days.

Which has to do with what?
Catch up you casual scrubs. I’m pre-raid bis in everything except head, chest, back
JK, the pacing of DM release is way too fast, I don’t agree with the release date at all

Perfect! Now you can shut up about Dire Maul being released too early
The timing. Getting Dire Maul 104 days after launch is the most vanilla like.

I’m going to be 60 well before 104 days post launch.
So no.

I don’t think that’s true. Classic has a lot of hard core players who are just older now, with RL obligations, and can only play 20-30 hours a week instead of 50-60, but they are still in it for the long haul. There are also people who actually enjoy leveling and didn’t rush to get it overwith by skipping quests and mindlessly grinding mobs, but are still very much planning to do endgame.

This is superfluous drivel. “The classic experience” is a undefinable term used by forum trolls trying to appeal to some greater good that doesn’t exit. Your “classic experience” is yours alone and stop trying to act as if you’re some authority of what that “experience” should be.
Dire Maul was released March 5th, 2005, 103 days after WoW Vanilla launch.
During that time there were some significant bugs addressed as well as balance issues in 1.1 and 1.2.
In this current environment the fixes applied in 1.1 and 1.2 are not necessary and there is no technical reason not to release Dire Maul on this schedule as if some additional 53 days, or 7 weeks of farming MC is going to actually ruin the “Classic experience”.
There is no good reason not to rush this stuff.
Stop telling people how to have a “classic experience” and let Blizzard do their thing. They have a better idea of what the “classic experience” is compared to trolls on the general forums.
