I think so, yup.

It's a problem for me, too.

The origin of the DDoS is unknown.

Most all Vanilla servers receive DDoS attacks. I was Rebirth for a year, before Nost, and it happened there all the time.

One line of speculation is that it's gold seller; if you take action against them, they hammer your server for a week or so. However, I can't remember if Rebirth ever had any gold sellers.

If it is not formally known it doesn't mean it's not blindingly evident...
In the course of actions to hold people's attention after the April's shutdown and consequently to prevent them from finding alternatives instantly (and abandoning the forum's) -- it is the only pattern visible.

Especially when the Quizz is right here and hard planned to be done!!!

And yep! All those past cases you experienced years of playing are of the same origin. It appeared almost everywhere where the long term character development was valuable. And that long term character development at privates means guess what???
- Years of NOT-even-bothering with what and official server mutated to ... that finally turns in The success of Warlords of Draenor!!

All those gold-sellers, botters, etc. you mentioned are a *terrorist*, an *act of terrorism*, and an *attack of the World terrorists*!

Anyway blizzard just hsould let Nostalrius continue their job and let them do what heir want. I want my char back so bad

Why so hung up on one char? It would be much more reliable for a long term comitment to have Blizzard host real vanilla realms tbh

Voted for:

- Vanilla WoW
- TBC UI (that's a must as a minimum)
- Additional land/lore and events during the official timeline.

If a company gives me these things, I'll be stuck in that game forever.

I have a mitigated feeling about this survey... 14 pages of answers and several complains about the mandatory google account.
Of course I hope we will get a lot of answers... but not sure 100% about that.

I read somewhere that so far approx. 40,000 people have replied.

Ok, good to know it even if it's an approximation.

It was considered blindingly evident for at least a thousand years that the Earth was stationary and at the center of the Universe. Similarly, it is still considered blindingly obvious by billions that God created everything and when we die we go to Heaven or Hell.

In general, we when thinking prove what we already feel.

I may be wrong, but I think you have certain feelings about the origin of the DDoS, and by those feeling, have dispensed with evidence and argument.
