So OP isn't even a DEV?!?

Thanks for answering my question

[Pokeypointy]

So OP isn't even a DEV?!?

Syrah (OP) is the communications leader, meaning that Nostalrius has seperate staff for forums, which uses it's time to intermediate with us the decisions and announcements made by the dev team/owners. The information is available to you on the forums, if you'd bother to look for a minute.

Literally registered just to have a voice on this (greetings to anyone else who found their way here from r/MMORPG.)

I am strongly in favor of a PvE realm. I think there are a lot of people like myself who would love to experience Vanilla WoW in a well moderated/tuned environment but are turned off by the PvP Realm and, frankly, the horrible but vocal ganker/1337 minority that plays there and has a lot of posts in this discussion.

I've played other Vanilla emulations in the past but they have had significant problems as most here know. Having a server from a staff with a good reputation and with a built in fan base would be a dream. Sadly I can't make the login vote due to work but I'd like to lend a +1 for this idea.

Also realize, because of the population on the PvP Realm it's easier to attract new players to the PvE realm. Not re-rolls, new players. In my mind I see this server with a big population and I think "Must be doing something right over there!" Making this change at a boom time for the population will keep that boom going as people gather friends/family to play. I myself would rope my gf into playing as I think Vanilla WoW is a great first MMO.

I hope the naysayers don't get their way because it will create their own downfall. Sometimes you can't see the forest through the trees.

Well if this happen, I hope u will get denied BG's option...it

[Gonstackk]

YAY! I can come play again. I just hope I can make it online in time, 9pm server time might be rough but will do what I can to get on.

Hi everybody,

First i have to say i'm a pvp player, and never played at any mmorpg on pve servers.
However, grey killers and gankers are a real problem on this server! That's NOT PVP when a level 55+ is while an entire afternoon turning in Hillsbrad Foothills and killing all levels 20-30 players!
And when i get bored and go fuck them with my 60 they just rage quit at first or second wipe... They aren't pvp players of course!

Second, i don't know any WoW Vanilla PvE server, and think Nostalrius can easily improve it's reputation and notoriety by doing such option.
Indeeds i know several players who didn't want to play on a PvP server, and several others who stopped play on Nostalrius after being grey killed.
In plus, i'm sure new players will come if the devs make enough advertisements.

So questions before voting are now (as written previously):

- Why just doing a count of players on 30min? Why so few noise? (dedicated post with details / IG system messages / etc...)

- What are the reasons to deny characters transfers? because transfers would give a real chance for the new server

- Is that possible that BG will be shared between both servers to keep PvP alive all the night?

My two cents...

Enjoy

@Nost team: plz, just dont.


If i was a PVE player, i will just choose to play on Kronos. There is no gank on Kronos because zones are empty. No need to shout on Nost forums for a PVE server.

On a side note, how many times were you gankerd here? I say, a real awful gank with more than 1 hour corpse camping? At this time, 0 for me. And even if it was happened one time for me, still no need to reclaim a PVE server.

[Talryx]

Yeah seriously, the ganking that occurs usually resolves itself within 10-15 minutes tops. Exceptions to this are very, very rare. And if anyone is going to argue that, please share a video showing someone ganking you for more than 15 minutes - otherwise you are full of shit and it was really like 1 time but you decided to cry about it for a week and then exaggerate the hell out of the story with 0 proof.

I have a strong feeling this PVE server nonsense will hurt Nost overall. A large percentage of the people begging for it now, are going to get bored without the world PVP. It might sound like a great idea, but after you level to 60 with ZERO conflicts in contested zones, and run a raid once or twice, 90% of people will just get bored and quit (if they even get that far.) Don't forget - the real reason retail is failing is because they removed everything challenging from the game. World PVP is a critical component.

You actually NEED annoying/frustrating components in order to fully enjoy the fun parts of the game. Just like real life. If you just want to sit there and press a pleasure button and feel pleasure non-stop, why don't you just buy a dildo you fucking vaginas...

[PriestInOurTime]

As a healing priest uninterested in running around in a group ganking others or by myself ganking lowbies the only effect of playing on a PvP realm is to get ganked every so often and waiting for people running to instances a lot more since they often get killed once or twice on the way. Zero upside and more dead time spent not playing the game.

Thanks, but I'll play on a realm where I get more time to play the game if given a choice. If this also leads to less crashes and less lag, so much the better.
