Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Every time retail applied a patch the severs were down for hours. They brought the servers down for 1/2 a day for 'maintenance' every week. While i agree with everyones frustrations at the lack of warning to plan my wow addiction around said forced break the fact that the admins/dev's are bringing the server down for an hour or 2 to fix something shouldnt surprise anyone.

tdlr: stop your whinging.

at that time it wasnt a 15 year old game with "5 years in development nonsense" etc

Once again its this server's own big mouth and large promises coming back to kick em in the ass.

Well, this is from the wikipedia page about World of Warcraft:
"World of Warcraft was first announced by Blizzard at the ECTS trade show in September 2001.[49] Released in 2004, development of the game took roughly 4–5 years, including extensive testing"

Please do research before commenting. As a follow-up; Are you one of the agents provocateur from one of the "competitors" Like feenix or kronos?

I was in beta for retail, and played from launch. This project is quite superior to the other so-called vanilla servers out there.

Most of those "promises" were player made. I don't recall Nostalrius ever saying "0 downtime to apply patches!"

But it was maintained by professional coders, are Nostalrius developers professional coders or just hobbyists?
