Thought about playing again

Private servers
The way this works is through private servers. A private server is a server seperate from Blizzard and is hosted by another indivudal . Private servers require have no sign up fee, mothly payment, or requirements. It's free to join and play.

There are several kinds of private servers.

Blizzlike: This type of private server offers experience and item drop rates similar to Blizzard servers. Blizzlike servers include working instances, raids, pvp, quests, tradeskills, and often battlegrounds. They also have up to date content or are only a patch behind Blizzard servers. If you enjoy Blizzard Servers, but want to play for free, this may be the server for you.
High-Rate: This kind of private server offers increased experience and item drop rates. High-rates also include working instance, raids, pvp, quests, tradeskills, and often battlegrounds. Some High-rates also offer PvP everywhere and teleporter NPCs. If you enjoy Blizzard servers but would like to level faster and get more drops, this may be the server for you.
Fun: Fun servers offer the most freedom to players, leveling to 70 is instant and Teleporter NPCs making traveling easy. They often contain custom content, such as items, quests, zones, and instances as well as events hosted by GMs. In addition they often have item malls with a wide variety of weapons, armor, mounts, and tradeskills items. If would like to experience everything World of Warcraft has to offer without spending months of time, this may be the server for you.
Multiple servers: Some private servers even offer multiple types of servers all under the same provider. These can be the best because you can log onto different types of servers while still using the same user name/password.

  7. i'll admit, i've played private servers before -- and it sucks. none of them have the userbase required to do what you want to do in regular wow, and there's always a lot of bugs and idiotic things the hosts thought would be cool to include... :|

  8. This would probably ad some spice back into the game for me and get rid of that nagging feeling of wasting 15 bucks a month.

  9. The rates and absence of cost make it worth it imo.

  11. In my opinion, private servers never live up to the experience you get on the real blizzard server. Some of them get pretty close and even build large communities, but those are also usually the ones that get shut down by blizzard the fastest, mostly due to server owners trying to get money out of it.

    Also, if you do intend to play on private servers, don't get to attached to your characters. You WILL lose them eventually.
