I'm sick of seeing posts about pro-legacy server players who played Legion.
You realize every one of you people who did that supported Blizzard's latest turd? why would they possibly waste resources on Legacy servers of you keep supporting every new expansion that comes out? You, yes YOU are part of the biggest reason we will never have them.
That being said I hope Blizzard never makes Legacy servers because their current staff sucks in every meaning of the word. They would somehow mess it up and mess it up on an epic scale. So to you flipfloppers, please do keep supporting the new expansions because it will help to keep Blizzard off the backs of private server hosts. But do us all a favor and stop acting like you care about vanilla or the legacy of what WOW used to be, because you clearly don't.

I bought it, and got a refund for $54.73. It was a shit product that I refuse to pay full, partial, or any sub tied to it anymore. I started raiding and playing the endgame scence in WoW in the very start of Wrath. However, I picked up WoW-Vanilla in 2006. I remember sucking badly at the game in Vanilla because of how new and young the game and me were. I'm not going to get into detail, but I sadly didn't get to participate in the Burning Crusade ever. Nothing in its iteration of being current. Running through the zones of Outland to hit level 80 in Wrath was about the most Burning Crusade i sadly got to enjoy. But nonetheless, I remember it still being an enjoyable experience, because in Wrath the leveling experience still wasn't butchered as it is now in the MoP-Legion era.
Raiding was another aspect of the game I never got to experience in Vanilla-WoW; did experience it in Nost and plan on experiencing AQ once I hit lvl 60 on kronos, but I did experience every raid fight Blizzard has had to offer up to the start of Wrath all the way to WoD, minus Ulduar, again sadly I miss the best times in WoW, due to some IRL bullshit. Bullshit that i would escape from by playing this game, this world that allowed me to group up and make friends and talk shit with people from all over the real world.
I used to think that what made WoW good was the subscription numbers and the amount of bosses a raid would have and nothing else. But luckily I did lvl multiple characters to 20-30 40-50, seeing what class I would like, and in the process, meeting people, learning how to work together, seeing how profession link with each other and even how that correlates to the real world; but right as Naxx was released, my computer died and I didn't get it back till Wrath. Because I missed an integral part of this games history, the Burning Crusade and not experiencing raiding in its prime time back in the day. I didn't understand, that raiding isn't what made this game. The communities did, the grouping up because some asshole ganked you did, selling your class services and profession did, we made the game people. I learned all of this by finally getting to experience Nostalrius. I played on ED, 4 months before I came to Nost and mind you, Nost had already released. I came two months late. Shit I never, ever, have experienced a post-Cata launch of any WoW expac. But regardless, I enjoyed my time and learned something from it all, that Vanilla WoW and it's design was near flawless because of something so simple. Make a game that encourages group play---no coordinated group play, Legion has group play, Vanilla has coordinated group play from the ground up.
I remember what the game was like before the inclusion of LFD, simpler dungeons in Wrath and then in Cata the LFD mouth-breathers who couldn't handle the difficulty introduced in Cata Dungeons making it that they were nerfed to all hell. The fact we could no longer run to a dungeon entrance, the fact we can longer help a friend who obviously left his Ony cloak in town by giving them a port and then getting a lock to summon him back, the fact that we can no longer kill mobs and pick up a green item and glance at it because it might be something sell-able, or hell in the disenchant-able range for brilliant shards. It's all bullshit at it's finest; our game has been taken over by menus, queues, and instant gratification rewards that make the simple minded players feel good inside.
The masses are horrible and the masses will always accept garbage because the masses have become garbage, for god's sake look at the US presidential elections and then all the bullshit happening in the middle east and Europe; we accept crap and funny enough everything in society becomes crap, cheap crap too. Our food, our furniture, our television media, our representatives, our video games, our music, our art, and everything else we find fun, enjoyable, mind expanding, and good for humanity in general.
Sorry about the rant, but your title post kinda irk'd me, but regardless you do have your feeling in a justifiable place. One that I share with you actually, but I bought Legion because i had to see it for myself, I had to just at least get my feet wet and try to stomach the dog shit the game became, but I couldn't. I instead left and called my credit card company and requested a charge back.

So someone that supported Classic and played on a server like Nost, is completely moot the second they try the newest expansion? Don't be so foolish. You seemingly operate with an all or nothing extremist mentality. The world is not black and white. The people who try Legion can come tell the rest of us how much it eats cock, without us having to spend our money on it. You can easily hurt their revenue more from having bought it, as opposed to not buying it, simply by sharing how much a pile of shit it is. The people you should be angry with are all of the clickbait channels we had pretending to support our cause, most who never even played on the server, for the sake of views when the shutdown was news, then promptly moved on to buy and play Legion. This is not the same thing. They never cared about our cause or private servers in the first place. They just clickbaited off the buzz, then moved on.
There's a huge difference between these 2, and if you can't see the difference, you are color blind. The world is not binary, or black and white... it has many more colors, like blue... green... red...

Legion is the first expansion I didn't buy. I don't blame people who did, we still love WoW. If WoW truly died I think all of us would be sad.
I did buy Overwatch, tried to return it after 2-3 hours of playing, they refused because I was level 5 or something. Not happy about that.

I wouldn't go as far as saying people who bought Legion are traders. More like they bought into the hype train Blizzard so skillfully has presented since Cata.
