i made a post about this before asking people why would they still want to play classic but i guess since servers are dead i wonder why they still want to play classic…
For many people, vanilla WoW is the quintessential WoW experience. I imagine they are hoping Blizzard will find a way to populate the servers enough to allow them to play in that time forever.
Besides, I imagine that most of the try-hard, min/maxers have moved on to TBC Classic. That in itself makes Classic Era realms appealing, especially to the type of person chasing that vanilla experience.

Classic is a good game. It’s my perception that it got less so because of (at least some of) the players who would rather bot, boost/get boosted, buy/sell gold, GDKP, etc. These low populated servers are probably about the closest to ‘fresh’ that we’re going to get and that may be a good thing.

Classic servers will probably always have a very small (and i mean very small) population. Its a good game for what it is, but it has issues that make it not so fun outside of leveling and dungeons. Once you get into it, classic is horribly unbalanced and not user friendly. TBC and subsequently wrath, fixed almost all of Classic’s issues, so as long as they exist, the Vanilla servers will remain low population indefinitely.
- Wrong forum, should be in Classic, not TBC
- Three topics asking the same thing, this really is your hill to die on huh?
- My answers are the same as the last two times I answered In the last two threads. I’m playing TBC too. The difference is I’d play Classic just because I love that game. TBC I do not feel a lot of love for it and if only it were released I never would have come back to WoW. So at this point, I’ll play TBC for the friends I’ve made and if I make new friends to play with otherwise I’ll be quietly out and off to another game that fits what I like more (that is if a Classic Era doesn’t pick up so isn’t really a thing). I’d come back for WotLK. Staying in TBC if I see everything blow up like I did last time, not a chance.
*Note: I am not saying there is anything wrong with preferring TBC, everyone has their preferences and I fully respect that people love TBC the most, I am only talking for myself. Also, this OP keeps making threads asking the same thing and I don’t even think they are reading the answers they are just trying to get replies or something.
I still want to play classic …
But Blizzard acted exactly as if they wanted to kill classic …
People will organize and we will play classic again, even if Blizzard is not doint his job
Maybe all the doomsaying is just a ploy by people who want to stay in Classic to try and keep people in Classic who wouldn’t be playing it otherwise…
Gotta fill those 40-man raids somehow!
what are you talking about. TBCC is going to be packed.
Maybe Era will be dead, but not Classic.
- “Should be in Classic, not TCB” what ? classic forums seems to be for both so far;
- Three topics ? I can see 59 topics on tbc;
- I agree;
They merged your servers as best as they could so they wouldn’t all die a slow death as any server perpetually stuck on late end game progression does. Don’t blame Blizzard for that
Classic right now feels way more like Vanilla than it did before. Boosters, bots, cheaters, and toxic players have more or less left. It’s actually really nice and everyone in classic right now likes it a lot better too. It’s low pop but our server still does Naxx and even pre Naxx raids. Dungeons are common too, surprisingly

Yeah, the topics have been kind of both on the two forums, but this forum (The Burning Crusade Classic Discussion) is more geared towards TBC discussion not why you would stay on Classic (Era).
This poster may have made more threads on this, I wouldn’t doubt it. I think they made this one as some sort of “I told you so” but my answers are the same.
Glad you and I agree on #3 Quèb, it’s always nice to have someone who does. 
If there is a reroll project and once I’ve had my fill with TBC I will probably make a new character on a CE realm.
I think they should have just moved everyone to TBC and rolled out like, 3 or 4 fresh servers. There are a lot of people who like fresh and doing the 1-60 progression all over again (me included). But we have what we have. Kinda iffy jumping into a CE realm where everyone there is 60 and has BiS and lots of gold. But we’ll see how things shake out. Mad respect for CE players salute

They didn’t merge anyting and that’s exactly why I’m reaaly angry about Blizzard right now. At least they should give me a choice.

RP realms since they cannot be merged with other base PVE or base PVP servers are mostly stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Do you merge the rp-pve and rp pvp together?
Do you merge rp-pvp in with non rp pvp realms?
Do you merge the rp-pve in with all the pve realms?
But don’t say they haven’t merged anything as most realms in classic are in fact merged. It’s just referred to as “connected” because your character doesn’t move anywhere.
Like I said, they should give me a choice.
I’m all alone on my “rp” realm. I can’t do anything interesting. No one is there. That’s what I’m talking about.
Don’t need full realms to RP - but if you want a fuller realm I suggest one of the realms in the post from Blizzard
Sure, but I can’t move right now so I’m in a ghost realm
and I shouldn’t have to pay to move
could re roll
well the goal to stay classic was to stay with my characters that farm xxxx hours to get there, not to reroll honestly
