anyone play WoW on private servers?
 

Just got a new private server setup and seeing if anyone here plays World Of Warcraft ont he private servers. so far we got Charlie from karups, a few of our friends and myself on there

isn't it kinda lonely playing on private servers? for me the most fun i had in wow was doing large raids and ganking in STV :)

The private servers can have upto 250+ players depending on the hardware you are running it on, The way we have it setup right now it can handle close to 400 people

dude - I'd play a little of that, been a while since I played WOW . might be good for a couple hours a week

i play on a regular server
how much better is it on a private server?

I'd like to kknow this is well... how would you even log on to one? Is it PVE? PVP? RP? Can you copy characters to them or do you have to start from scratch?

Let me know, I may be in :thumbsup

Hit me up and I cdan get you setup on here

level cap is at 225 not 70, i can set the rates of money, and loot to anything we want, and a few of us have full GM powers if you need to ask for an item u need, or you can visit the mall and buy anything and everything from the 50+ vendors :)

this one is a PVP you cant copy characters but i would be more then happy to make you a matching character to your current one if not better :)

how do i connect to it and will it fuck up my game so i cant play regular ones anymore?

There is a program called wowscape launcher, what you do is put the ip or domain for private servers and you use that to launch WOW from the launcher you pick which server you want to connect to either a private or the retail server and it changes your realmlist file to go to the right game, so NO it wont fuck up your regular game chris

im in then :)

sounds good hit me up later on icq and ill get you setup

What's involved in playing on a private server?

I will hit you up on Q later if that is ok and get me an account setup. :) Thanks. Look forward to playing.

Private servers are great and Pete has done a good job with this one. If nothing else its good to experiment with different armor and classes without wasting the time you need to put in to the retail version.

Been playing private servers for about 4 months now in addition to my retail account and I hardly use the retail one anymore.

nothing its just like playing on the retail one but more fun

sounds good hit me up later

Had fun lastnight playing it was 5am before i went to bed to wake up at 6am and work :)

Ya I'd be interested. You said you can make one similar if not better? So admins can actually make characters?

Ya admins can make there own items and anything else they want, if you know how to play with MySQL there is a builder to make your own items, if you wnat to set one up for you and your firends hit me up and ill help you out brad

Can I hit your server - Loot mass PVP purples and then send all the gear to my main toon on the Ner'zhul PVP server?? hehe

My main account is not active at the moment. Do I have to pay and get it going again in order to hit the private servers?

Oh man, I am just kicking the WoW habit and then you go and bring this up, I might never get work done again. LOL.

Is this a server friendly to grown men who believe in ghosts?

No sorry not possible :)

Nope no reason to pay thats why its private ;)


i had kicked it for 18 month and Charlie from karups got be back on WoW so i made my own private server for all of us

Aww now why'd you have to go and tell me that?! Shit it might be time to fire WoW back up for a bit

Hey steve we would love to have you join us, Might have to have the designer make a character that looks like u:)

Kickass, just started reinstalling it now.

I guess that speaks volumes about this game. It's soooo much like crack you can't just stop playing it. You actually need to uninstall it and hide your discs.

Thats exactly what i did then they offered it online for free trial download and thats all you need for the private servers

Oh shit i have a night elf on that server are you horde or alliance.

Candyflip your right it is worse then crack and there are no support groups.

hey im gonna start a WoW support group and charge people to get them unadicted and instead push them to buy porn memberships :)

So true,
I have HDD crash, and after that never installed again, now I actually have enough time to rest, and to finish all my daily tasks. Installation disc in hidden in safe place just in case

Hell yea, I want a mohawk helm! :)

it can easily be done, Ill even make it random colors for u:)

You guys sometimes check out wowdetox.com . It works much more better than support groups :)

Haha nice one Nickutis

Interesting... been wanting to rock a 70 rogue for a while, but not willing to put in the hours it took to get my other toons up there.

the same shit

I tell you what, hit me up we will get you set up and ill start you at level 71 ;)

Can you send me the info too? Would like to check it out!

Lol, you should have made a FAQ before starting this thread man.

It seems everybody is asking similar questions..

can you create a new Character, deck him out with top items/armor and go Raid Illydian ?

Illidan is hard no matter what ya got.
Well maybe a private server is different but the fight takes about 20 Mins to1/2 hour from start to finish.

We're all Horde at NS - Fuck the ally, if its red its dead. :1orglaugh

Our guild is "Filthy Whored"
Nssimple - 60 orc warrior - main
Lysol with a pet named Turd - 28 hunter
Daxy - 23 hunter (thats my sons toon)

Lets find and dual each other for honor points for a few hours - You kill me, I kill you - We can load up! lol

FOR THE HORDE!

You mean you're running your own server with WoW on it?

isn't that like... ilegal.

Yes you can visit the mall and get all the tier6 armor for your guy :)

nope, your allowed to run them as long as your not making money from them,

:1orglaugh

I love that :winkwink:

lvl 225? wow! I guess you can also just suit up a lvl 225 in the best gear possible for say a mage?

I was just thinking teh same thing :1orglaugh

I'm like 1 month clean from WoW after 3 years of playing it but this looks sooooo tempting :upsidedow

How are you guys keeping it even here in terms of Horde/Alliance? Or can you have each of you want? Would be really cool to allow characters to have both factions on a PVP server (not available in real PVP servers)

Nice! I'll have to hit you up later Pete.

I used to have a local version running back before the expansion launched. Would still have it, but ended up dumping the computer to a family member.

.kill FTW!

Correct, but im not that nice to just start you at the top level ;) im willing to give u a level 70 though ;)

No it follows those same rules as the blizzard server

Hit me up to get you started son ;)
