Quote "Regarding the future release of Nostalrius related data; we confirmed that we will *not* be officially endorsing any private server. We have the idea and sense that Nostalrius can no longer live if Blizzard does not accept it. Nostalrius was a fan made project; therefor, hiding it in offshore countries to continue against the original game creator would be a transgression of our principles, of the reasons why Nostalrius existed in the first place."
Well, then what was the point of starting it in the first place? At this point, would anyone really trust Blizzard to do legacy servers the right way?... I don't... Blizz died long ago, I always felt that the nail in the coffin was the Activision merger, and their change of vision after TBC, but whenever it happened, I don’t believe they have it in them any longer to be the type of community oriented company they once were, they are completely corporatized, no heart.
The Blizz of today knows in the long run they will lose, because there will always be private servers. I think the best bet is running to another country, where their annoyance won't get in the way, and know I wouldn’t feel bad about it, because Blizz abandoned the heart of WoW a long time ago, so in spirit we are only working with abandonware.
But in any case, no disrespect intended Nost Team, you did a hell of a good job. Peace.
