damn, if you dont like private servers, then leave.
personally i find the development fun, i dont play so much as i code.
and there are some emu's that look promising (namely delfin) it already has weather, and othner stuff.
anyway 20 australian dollars a month is too much for me, and even then i would get a crap ping on adls cos there are no true australian servers. sure theres the vegemite (or something???) server and the bathurst one but they suck
thats my 2 cents
i agree with extermin8tor, i love to just sit around and mess with all the things, make my own items and all that, i still play reg. wow too, and i still get in a good 12+hours a week, even with school and work and all. so stfu and leave if u dont like em, stop bitching to us about what you thinkis rigth and wrong.
my other main reason for not playing reg. wow as often anymore is that all the "raiding guilds" are too damn picky, ive been 60 for a good 2 months now, and none of them will take me, even with some pretty good gear. it just pisses me off that they can't have fun without habing the best stuff.
People like you, Xtorsion. That's why I play private servers, so I don't have to deal with people like you, and the guild you're undoubtedly in. I had three 60s in retail, the first of which took for-fking-ever to get there because my server was full of retards. Every single time i was in a good guild, it got ruined by greed. Hence, I started playing greed-free private servers. They taste delicious.
That, and I don't have to find 39 idiots every time I want to kill something.
first of all, for people who say they play WoW to test the game but never seem to play the real thing... you are sadly missing out on so much the real game has to offer. I use to play on private servers and like you all, laughed at people paying on offical, but one day i decided to test how it compaired to the emus and i can tell you that ive never looked back and if i knew that official was gonna be SO much better than the emus... I wouldn't have wasted my time on emus. Sure on emus we can change what we like, but we cant even play that properly cause of all the bugs, so what would be the point of getting to lvl60 fast and getting tier 3 items if they dont even work properly???
Getting into a end game raiding guild isn't hard on official and the feeling and the rush you get when you first enter MC with 39 other people is awsum, the feeling of domo summoning rags is a rush which no emu can compair to... hell, the event doesnt even work on emus, let along the summoning. Emus only let you exprience the very basics of what the game has to offer and yet even that is limited.
This is all emulation.
Emulation is how we can emulate something, indeed there is bugs, but thats the whole point of this place, to report bugs and to get ways of fixing them.
If you play on the retail wow, why even bother to post here..
Go and play wow on the real server, and leave us to our emulation.
Fun to play the normal Wow,but having the chance to look through things and perhaps test the new instances out as a GM.... check places you dont get access to that fast...
+ you can play alone with your friends without having bitchy 10 year old kids running around on the server acting like asses
Indeed, don't get me wrong, it's nice to play on a server with no bugs and plety of users.Quote:

Huh I wonder what will hapen if Official files were by small 'mistake' copied by someone from Bl!zz and released.
That would be cool XD. I guess whole game could collapse - because half of the people playing on officials would surely tried out being GM on their own server ^^.
Sure testing is fun.... but what exactly are you testing???? testing bugs?? how can you test something if its not working properly???Quote:

Lol, like said before if you don't like emu why come to site? You really care if blizzard or some company doesn't make as much since there is emu? Even if emu don't work 100% being gm or on high rate server you can learn allot and test stuff out. Just funny some of things you guys say but I'm sure you saying same about what I just said. Anyways I don't care flame me and make yourself feel better.
but there is other side of emus... u can visit such place as "outland" or "emerald dream"... besides if blizz wuodnt want us to make prvt servers they would cripted such files realmlist.wtf and many others... so... we are being used people... were the demo... ;(
you can enter emerld dream and outlands ant others on wowwow :) or on wowemu :)
I agree 100.1% with EvilRyu. What the heck was he/she doing here in the first place? I don't remember coming across any links in official WoW webbie re-directing surfers to RageZone :bored: .Quote:

The private servers will rule the gameplay fun of the official servers when it comes to creativity in new ways of gameplay(herowars, capture the flag(not just in battleground but in whole world), a game mode where players can hire npc to fight for them and run around with a small armee, and MANY more)!
P.S. and don't dare to steal any of these ideas without giving me credit :grin:
lol running around with a bunch of slave npc's ^^ damn that would be a nice screenshot =) me and my personel army in BWL =D
lol the noobs are paying u mean ? the smart people are trying to fix a server are trying to fix the bugs and are trying to make it fun!
I WOULD snap at him..not even worth the time...argueing on the internet is like running in the spcial olympics...Even if you win, you're still retarded.
Well I kinda agree with you.
I have been also playing & paying for about a year now but its gets fustrating.
I like having a Fully Customizable solo game and the ability to create some ridiclous content -lol
i still play online but I also enjoy having my own server even more since wow is really not for solo players.
you can experience both this way.
I could not agree more! I love pay-for-wow but I love having a wow "sand box" to test char builds and goof with mobs/loot/environment settings.Quote:

At the same time im getting smarter getting better with these type of things. So plain and simple private servers may not be perfect but its fun and you get the chance to try out new things. creating ur own weapons and armor for yourself, feeling like the boss all of that you cant get in retail WoW and im glad i dont play retail WoW so i dont have to meet players like you. If you dont like private servers please dont post it here just go away.....
I just wouldn't pay for an online game when there is lots of free ones out there [conquer eudemons etc]
Please don't bump 2 Week+ threads.
