maybe hosting in russia would be better thing :)
Hah, Agua.
More than half of the players on WoW private servers haven't played a day of retail.
First, they didn't pay before, so what is going to make them pay now?
Second, They will move to another country, why? because, duh. it's all about the money isnt it?
Third, Thoughs idiots, they aren't going to make any more money by shutting down private servers.
What do private servers do?
Some people get impatient, and can't hold onto there balls long enough. They cry everytime a server shuts down for 15 minutes. They also freak out when there account gets reset. What does this do? It makes them want something more stable. The solution, Retail.
LoL
IS there any country where we can escape from DMCA's power? :D and where we can host our server peacefully laughing about Blizz :D
Russia =) or NL maybe ?
nobody worry, there is no possible way blizz can shut down everyones severs, we will just have to find new ways of getting our servers out there isntead of top 100 ect, thats where bliz looks for the top servers.
Maybe... IRC? Passworded website than only those who request password from site admins can enter?
P.s - Russia is last place where i will host my server... I hate them more than Murlocks... more than anything...
they will never shut down ;) and blizz cant take down every kid's home server ;)
most likely they wana fear u :))
geeez just host shit outside the states....
I know this sucks but our community will never die out!
Blizzard will send all private servers they can find this letter! That is for sure, but there's tons and tons of private servers out there, the ones most popular will get the warning serious and if they don't shut down, Blizzard will take actions against them! But what about one of the 5k low pop servers? The ones not listen on most top-sites? Do you think if they don't obey the letter, Blizzard will take actions against hem? No way!
If Blizzard took actions against 5000 private servers, boy... that would require a few loyers...
They may take our freedom, but they will never take our servers!
It doesnt matter, WoWSCAPE and Toxicwow both had host out side the states (UK) but since its still the law of copy written data.Quote:

Maybe if 1 person does this, and wins, Blizzard would think twice about actions towards the private server owners.
