Re: [World_of_Warcraft_List] Private Servers

 

Why do you ask?  As the list owner I have nothing against folk discussing or using them talking about them on this list.  I will leave the 'moral high ground' to those who at least have more money than I do... :)

Many a private servers have shutdown which include Wowscape, Toxic-WoW, burning wow, WoWGasm, Chaos Crusade, and WoW Fusion. Using an outside law firm targeting Softlayer hosted private servers. This however is a waste as blizzard can not take action against the emulation makers or database teams. Thus new servers will replace those taken down. I can only guess this is an attempted to boost Christmas sales due to timing. Due to blizzards high monthly cost these private servers wouldn't exist and until they change pricing it only furthers the problem.

Up until now there has been only 2 open emulations for WOW. Mangos and arcemu currently can hold upwards of only a thousand players for an uptime of 2~10 hours. Wowscape which can hold upwards of 8 thousand players per realm due the emulator summit may see leaked
