We are. Just not in the forums m8. Forums have actually been pretty dead since grizzly left

why they left?

Everyone in my guild who had past experience with Grizzly expected them to die before AQ, not before BWL.

If you play 15 hours a day everyday you tend to run out of things to do. In my opinion the majority of grizzly players played the game for the wrong reasons and they simply burnt out. They were mad about the timeline not being accurate and felt cheated. Admittedly, for many of us the wait for bwl has felt like forever. But, it's important to remember there are many other aspects to this game besides competitive raiding. This is not meant to be an insult to anyone, merely an observation.

As casual as retail is, it's still the place to be for competitive raiding.

I will agree with that, but for whatever reason people on here seem to take a great amount of pride in emulating 10 year old strategy as flawless as possible. I guess it goes back to that old saying "anything worth doing is worth doing right".

Bleeding-edge retail content is far harder than anything vanilla has to offer. It just doesn't require the "no-life" aspect.

While the original timeline fell short, if you look at the release timeline in a different way...

Nov. 23rd 2004 - July 12th 2005: Release of WoW and release of BWL = 7 months 19 days

Feb 28th 2015 - Sept 19th 2015: Release of Nostalrius and release of BWL on Nos = 6 months 22 days

So when you compare those two, we do have an expedited release schedule compared to retail; it just wasn't as fast as originally promised.

I see your point, however, Nostalrius' original timeline didn't have anything to do with their initial server release, so this is not a good comparison.

"2 months after the first Ragnaros and Onyxia kill, BWL is released."
Nostalrius release: February 28th, 2015
Server first <GRIZZLY> Ragnaros kill: March 18th (18 days after release)
Server first <GRIZZLY> Onyixa kill: March 22nd (22 days after release)
BWL release: September 19th (5 months, 24 days after latest server first Rag/Ony kill)

WoW Release: November 23rd, 2004
World first <Ruined> Onyxia kill: January 30th, 2005 (2 months, 7 days after release)
World first <Ascent> Ragnaros kill: April 25th, 2005 (5 months, 2 days after release)
BWL release: July 12th, 2005 (2 months, 17 days after latest world first Rag/Ony kill)

Conclusion: it's not really fair to compare it in either way, considering the knowledge/code/experience that developers have for scripting vanilla content nowadays and information raiders have for progressing. The only real fair way is to stick to what brought players to the server in the first place and not break promises.

RIP RD, Massivus, and GRIZZLY. See you all on Corecraft. We out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9FBXb4G4GI&t=1m26s

This has no logical sense. BWL is before AQ, so if they die before AQ they die before BWL. They can't die before AQ and not before BWl, as "everyone in your guild who had past experience with Grizzly expected".

Rofl, the youtube comments are full of Kronos faggots. Typical

You know exactly what he meant. Learn to slang.
