On a scale of 1 to erection how much better is Vanila > live

Current WoW is much better then vanilla. Its laughable to even compare. But Im playing nost only for twinking, and twinking is quite good here

Staying locked in a low-lvl bracket without ability to lock your xp, therefore limiting yourself to only explored areas with gray mobs....

That's................ meh....

And yea... your statement that current wow is better totally matches your signature.
You should move on from lowbie twinking and experience what game really has to offer.
I'd like Blizzard to release just one legacy realm and you'd see how much better modern wow is in compare to what we are playing here.

Fact that this private server has became known world wide in such short amount of time just proves the quality of server itself and the quality of content people are looking for.
WoD didn't last 3 months before all returning players abandoned it.
1.12.1. patch lasts 8 years now, still played alot more than anything that old.
Only Everquest Project 1999 comes close to this with like 2k people and loyal fan base.

Attunements were bad for the playerbase, and not alt-friendly at all. Grinding to revered with five reps to access heroics on one character is bad enough; having to do it in additional toons was a pain in the fucking ass.

And raid attunements were even worse, because it meant that if you had to replace someone in your raid group, you often had to poach players from other guilds because they were the only ones attuned to the raid.

At first, the attunements made sense because of difficulty. You needed to do every quest in the zone and a few runs of the normals (not many) before you hit Revered. You only had to grind normals if you skipped most of that zone's quests.

Anyway, Heroics at launch were hard enough that you had to spend considerable time gearing up in normal modes because the Heroics were part of Tier 4 (you needed to do some of the hardest normals in order to get the Karazhan key). If you didn't gear up in normal modes, your chances of being able to complete most Heroics were slim at best. By the same token, the T5 attunements made complete sense at the time because of how fucking insanely difficult they were. Most players didn't experience the real Tier 5. They experienced a heavily watered-down version that still took months to complete.

The only attunements that sucked horse cock were the T6 ones. Why? Vashj and Kael'thas were harder than Archimonde and Illidan. Having to constantly go back to key people was the hardest part of T6, and that never felt good.

That said, trying to force true competitive PVP into this game was like putting a square peg into a round hole. The game was not designed to be balanced enough to support legitimate competition, and resilience/seasonal PVP gear was a horrible move. It diminished the accomplishment of working for raid gear, and PVP was still imbalanced as fuck.

And one thing people don't seem to realize about contemporary WoW is the negative effects of quality of life. Some were very welcome, but many were unnecessary and really sucked the life out of the game, killing the community and social aspects.

The less things you have to do to prep for raid, the less time you're forced to be outside of cities. The less travel you have to do, the less time you have to spend outside of cities. Etc, etc, etc.

I very much like Vanilla, but I still enjoy WoD but for different reasons.

vanilla > TBC > wotlk > rest not even considered in list

Vanilla = Full blown horse erection
TBC = 7
WotLK = 4
Cataclysm = 2

So many kiddies who think TBC is the best, but it's because they didn't play official vanilla... sad.

It's because kids like you have no nostalgia of real WoW (Vanilla). So to you, Nostalrius is just like another expansion pack. But you sir are the one wrong. TBC is the shitty expansion pack and Vanilla is the REAL WoW!

Man...im too old to be nostalgic about video game,...even if there is a little bit of nostalgia, it doesnt influence my opinion and that is: "For me Tbc is best wow exp".There, i little bit rephrase it my basic thought for you.There is no way that you could persuade me or someone else that Vanila is better then Tbc,when from my exp clearly it is NOT.If you dont respect that ,then we have problem here.Other people have opinions too,you know...
