Vanilla's world most populated server

[Uzephi]

It might be a good Idea to announce how much you need and how much you already got.

Rule one of having a server of this nature: Never give a hint about the hardware. I do like they have been transparent on the income of donations, but only someone not versed in Cyber security would not know to hide details of your rig. If any malicious party does try to target the server, knowing the hardware and software running it would make the job 100x easier to compromise it's security.

On topic: Keep up the great work! I have been reporting bugs with priority levels so you can queue it properly.

I donated a small amount as funds are limited, thanks for keeping the server great. Keep fixing those bugs!

Just donated 15 Euros. I will try to donate this amount each month if they keep the donation link up. It's more than worth a recurring sub vs retail atm. Keep up the great work guys. I've not enjoyed wow this much in years!

Thanks Beauenheim and welcome! Be sure to register for the Bug Tracker and report any problems you find. The staff is really active at verifying bugs and resolving them.

Here's what the BT looks like.

Donated 10 EUR. Once i logged into paypal it translated to English for me. This will be a recurring donation as long as i am playing if things keep going as smoothly . I would put an english donation page anyway for people who don't feel safe clicking through another language!

Thanks for the memories, this is so fun.

Indeed - I visited the https://en.nostalrius.org/paypal.html page as well... and was greeted in french.


This should be fixed, along with some styling on the page!
Maybe a short description of what Viper says should be on the page as well:

Dear community,

New hardware is needed to suppress the lag and set a new world record. The cost of this hardware cannot be handled by our team alone, therefore a donation system will be available for a limited time (and limited cost) here. This donation will not be mandatory, nor give any reward: No hall of fame, no items in-game, it will only help us support the upkeep cost. A status of the donation will be available on the website.

Best regards,
Nostalrius.

Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality. If you can dream of it, you can do it.

PS: If you're short on web-people, I'll gladly assist on this manner!

If you log in to your paypal account it will convert it to your set paypal language.
