All the other Vanilla Classic Servers are available and online right now, but the hardcore servers are the only ones offline right now? What gives?

Guessing they are doing an update to the databases that is specific to HC servers, perhaps to allow SF to be added in the future.

This is a very valid guess

This has to be the worst communicating GAME publisher that has existed on the planet. That is all.

Its a planned outage as one someone I known mentioned there would be an 8 hour outage today, , really DB stuff really is the only thing I can think of that takes significant time to do, unless they found an issue with the cluster, and the servers seem pretty solid lately.

Conspiracy: they want to pump Dragonflight numbers.

Go outside, get some fresh air, find a nice coffee shop, do some people watching, then come back refreshed tonight and continue your journey.

Isn’t that the case for every server yet many are up already? Historically im rather sure the servers always come up several hours before the times they post. I am sure that the servers are separate from the softcore ones, and they will be up soon, but it’s not that outlandish for him to have asked about this.
