Im having fun. Queues were a little insane the first and second day but I think with the new servers launched it's ironing itself out.

Wait in a 5 hour queue for a game you pay for every month...

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

Moonmoon_OW is a treasure. One of the few big time streamers without a cam and is actually entertaining. Also he's an old fat 30 y/o dude like the rest of us.

I finally rolled on Smolderweb as there's no queue and it appears to run with medium load off hours, high load during pacific prime time. I also tried out Deviate Delight but the lower pop is an issue and there's server side latency preventing me from chaining spells properly and having a longer looting / selling delay. I'm not having that problem being a CA resident playing on a pacific time server.

Meh, it's fun. It's real classic, with all of the NPC's doing the proper scripted actions that most Mang0s based private servers couldn't get right. Like the tauren warrior circle duel in Bloodhoof village or any of the orc children related scripting in Barrens. I do have a few Macro discoveries to relate though, if anyone is curious and playing the game.

On Mang0s based private servers using the Supermacro addon you could set up a HUGE amount of conditional macros that could do 2, 3, or even 4 things in proper sequence with the press of a button. Classic retail doesn't allow for this. The intent that's coded in is that one button will only ever do one thing, or one of two different things with some limited conditions. A condition of "if ability A is not on cooldown, do A - else do ability B" was not allowed, but here's the fix.

#showtooltip
/dismount
/castsequence Overpower
/cast Heroic Strike

The above macro will dismount you if necessary and then send 2 cast commands at the server at the same time, read in order of the lines - Overpower received to be performed first, and Heroic Strike. The game will attempt to Overpower first and then skip to Heroic Strike instead with one button press. As you can imagine, this is incredibly useful for warrior PvE leveling / grinding.

Relatively early in wow I didn't have much brain power; so I hated it. but it would be interesting to see what it would be like to play it again. Ive played modern wow a bit and it isent that bad. Still seems like a McVideogame to me a bit.

Yeah, back when I no-life'd WoW, that kind of thing was fine. Get home from work, jump in queue and go cook/eat dinner. Nowadays, I barely have time to play MMOs 2 nights a week for 2-3 hours total. Not gonna deal with queues.

Just logged in to 398 people and 3 min queue. I'm on a "Full" server. I don't think the queues (note: there's no apostrophe in "queues" you morons) have been that bad since day 2-3. We'll see what the holiday weekend is like.
