New WoW Vanilla server

Someone pointed me in the direction of this server on the threads here. I looked into it a bit and it sounds promising.
Wow-one is launching a new server Tomorrow (august 25,2012)
It's vanilla wow, all rates are set to original.
It's launching without any BG's/arenas and will start true to WoWs launch.
There's no "donor" items or "vote" items like alot of the other servers.

The populations on some of the other servers hosted by them have reached 4000 primetime. There's alot of Euro's playing on the servers so if you're a late night player it's convenient.

Web page is http://www.emeralddream.com/

It's on a countdown til launch right now with roughly ~14 hours left until launch

It's a 5 gb download.

there's not a comparable server right now.

World of Scriptcraft, Rebirth, etc.

World of scriptcraft = 1x - 5x leveling rate, instant lvl 49
Rebirth = about 100 total server pop normally.
don't know what or who the etc is, but I still don't think there's a comparable server.

World of scriptcraft also shut down months ago.

So it sounds like it is going to be an actual vanilla server....not 1 patch before BC? with world pvp and such?? That actually sounds cool imo

If I didn't have to deal with the terrible, terrible UI I might play. Modern WoW's quality of life fixes like non-fullscreen maps, enemy spell bars, and macro shortcuts make anything before WotLK seem shitty. The classic addons aren't too great either. Don't forget that half the time players get stuck in a casting animation that's a client side bug on these servers, so the only way to bait a cast is to do some sort of cc and kick immediately afterwards.

Seems like fotm Vanilla server #3195085 to me as well.

is the server PvP or PvE?
I am not exactly sure what "world PvP" stands for in this case since per my research on wowwiki the description of that have changed over the time.
In other words I would like to know if PvP is restricted to specific zones/duels, or is it anywhere in the world?
