Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Whenever I attempt to play on the server, I am always unable to connect. The issue appears when I try to log into the realm list. It first asks me to choose a realm type, which it has never done before. Then when I select Nostalrius Begins a message appears letting me know that it is logging onto the game server. However after a second or two of waiting the realm list pops back up, and I am unable to log in no matter how many times I try.

same here, i guess the server crashed and is restarting now....

I do not think that is the case considering I have been checking constantly for about a week or so, not once has it worked. So either the server is down perpetually or a login issue exists.
