Exactly. You can always add more servers later. Dealing with dead servers and server merges is way more difficult.

The only RP-PvP server is on the west coast. So when the server is prime time, it’ll be bed time for us on the East Coast. Cool!

Exactly…it’s gonna be a nightmare trying to grab the name you want unless you are one of the lucky few who happen to log in BEFORE the queue

Where my Mankrik or Pagle boys and girls at? Trying to figure out which one to choose.

True more people will play when it’s free, but you need to keep in mind that when Vanilla launched in 2004 it was sub based, just as the game has been for the last 15 years. Those who played during WoW’s humble beginning and are excited to play on Classic will be returning regardless of the $15 sub fee. Private servers are free yes, but there are very few that operate without some degree of bugs/glitches. More people will sign up to play in favor of Classic over p. servers primarily for that reason, in addition to the fact that we now have official Blizzard servers for them to play on. The main argument that everyone who played on p. servers was the fact that Blizzard had no official legacy servers, and that if one existed they would happily pay $15 a month to play on it. Now that they no longer have that excuse, many will switch over.

Blades of light!

I’d prefer Pagle.

Yeah I noticed from another thread that Pagle is expected to be heavily Alliance and Mankrik heavily Horde, makes sense I suppose. I was hoping for closer to a 50/50, but it is what it is.

Where are the realm databases so I know for ms / ping purposes.
Is the time zone an indicator of the server location?

It’s me. I am Fairbanks,

We decided to go Pagle

Server time has jack squat to do with when the busy times are.

I don’t like or want tourists clogging everything up, lol. I’ve decided not to play Classic. It’s going to be like the stress tests. Even if it’s only for awhile. Been there, done that. I’m a busy mom, I don’t have a lot of time to play anyway.

To the people replying to my post talking about “layering”. I am just a simple housewife from the suburbs. I rarely come on the forums, I’m pretty dumb and clueless about pretty much everything. I have no idea what layering is. Even if you try explaining it to me, I’m sure I wouldn’t understand but I thank you all for your efforts haha. Cheers!

Bloodsail for me

I live in south Ms. Im going to Pagle . I would rather be 1 hr behind server time, than 2 hrs before. Not really caring about world pvp server because, i want to see and enjoy the game at a slower pace. I started 4 months after TBC launched and had to race though and didn’t get to enjoy it for what Vanilla was. End Game is roughly 2 yrs away, so lots of time .

How vague. And no they didnt

So are the names saved account-wide now? Or can we save names on different servers?
