Vanilla WoW

Hey guys. I was discussing with some other lainons in IRC about vanilla wow. Other people showed interest, so we decided to make an official board for it for anyone that wants to play. >What game is it? Vanilla (aka unofficial, free WoW not support by blizzard) >What kind of game is it? MMORPG that's about 12 years old >What server do you guys play on? We play on TheRebirth. A Vanilla Blizzlike 1x rates to everything.(http://www.therebirth.net/) >How are the scripts? The leveling (in my experience) is flawless. TheRebirth is humble about being the best vanilla scripted server to date. (Personally I've had experience on two other servers and they were soykaf) >What's the catch? TheRebirth is a low pop server, recently it had a 6 month downtime due to a DDOS and a 6 week rollback. In January of this year they got everything back to normal and upgraded to prevent it from happening again. (Rebirth Wiki) All it needs is more players to fill in the gap. A lot of people left because of those 6 months, but the people who stayed still participate as a community. >How do I play? You need to torrent or download a 1.12 vanilla wow client. (Unofficial, so do not go to Blizzard's site for this). Then follow the instructions on TheRebirth. If you need help go ahead and ask. >What faction do you guys play? We play on Alliance. >How do I contact you to play with other lains? Our guildname is <Lambda Knights>. Whisper anyone who's online. (Rehboot or Naviseals) and make sure to join /global See you guys there! If you have any questions go ahead and post.

i have a problem with the 1x exp because vanilla wow is super grind. the 4chan vg server has 7x. please don't do 1x on vanilla.

>>2402 Where's the fun in it if you're instantly max level?

I looked into Vanilla WoW some time ago when I was searching for grindy, relaxing games. Didn't grip me and had no one to play with, because server was max 15 users all the time. I might be interested to jump in, but not before oct or nov.

>>2401 Id be interested but not sure where id find the right torrent

>>2405 https://thepiratebay.mn/torrent/5158084/World_of_Warcraft_1.12.1_Full_Client___Patches

>>2401 We've made some edits because more people wanted to play on Alliance. The same information applies, same guild name, etc. Just different faction.

>Update The guild still needs to be created. It's expensive (10 gold I think). I'll be saving up to create it but we should have it running soon. To anyone else who is going to play, leave your character name and I'll add you guys.

How many lainons are playing?

Ok, made a character

Where can I get the Macintosh client?

>>2411 alright add me @Baldjones

I will play if someone can help me find the correct macintosh client.

>>2412 View here http://www.wow-one.com/forum/topic/2100-vanilla-wow-installation-guide-both-mac-and-pc/

>>2401 >Update To form a guild, we need at least 10 lainons to sign a charter. So far I think we have 5. Just a few more! Thanks everyone who's participating. Get enough people leveled up and we can have an official lainchan raid on Zul'Gurub!

The Torrent has no seeders.

>>2416 Vanilla exping is so boring, even in group! I would prefer playing Ragnarok with you, guys.

I would like to suggest we make a clan on 4chan/vg's WOTLK server. ITs 7x and has active people. This is the server kalyx and a few others play on already.

>>2419 >>2418 Well I personally enjoy vanilla. But I didn't know kalyx and them play on a wotlk server.

>>2420 ill try setting up tonight

aw soykaf i have to start over now huh

I've actually never played any version of WoW; this will be my first experience of it.

ok i guess ill come to vanilla, my guild is dead.

>>2420 This is getting tough. The torrent linked earlier is also just the windows game installer.

>>2426 >>2426 might have just found it https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0By-w7AaXalVyeUVTdUlzdGVqanM&usp=sharing

>>2425 That is like kicking dead whales down the beach.

My ign is teaguy

>>2418 Ahh, I wish I have Korean friend, that could make me Ragnarok account. I would die happy grinding. Unless, they have IP ban on Korean servers!

>>2494 Why not the IRO servers?

>>2494 You can always use a VPN to make an account, couldn't you?

>>2494 I think westerners can play Tree of Savior, and that's a spiritual successor to Ragnarok iirc. Maybe that interests you?

I had an account on rebirth when it first opened, but it appears it's been deactivated. Bummer.

>>2401 Looks like I can't login to my old account. I can roll a toon on here, does your guild need anything specifically? I'm interested in trying a priest, as I never played one beyond level 20 in the 5 years of playing wow...

It's been a pain to find a client, with all the dead links or unseeded torrents, so I'll just put a magnet for you guys. magnet:?xt=urn:btih:FMZOMT3M25K2TZKNMDRALKLIDVTHBT5O

>>2532 Is that the same as this one? magnet:?xt=urn:btih:246b306596b9fcf8c05ee6d548b515e76ae244c2&dn=VanillaGaming%5F1121%5FPack.rar&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fannounce.torrentsmd.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fbt.careland.com.cn%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fi.bandito.org%2Fannounce&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fopensharing.org%3A2710%2Fannounce&tr=http%3A%2F%2Ftracker.tfile.me%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fcoppersurfer.tk%3A6969%2Fannounce

>>2533 Doesn't seem to be the case.

Well I've never played WoW before but I went and made a character. Seems fun so far.

Is anyone in the guild ever on? Apparently the toon I made a few years back is still around, so I have a lvl 30 dwarven priest good to go. Trying to remember what I was doing....

Just joined, Rolling a Night Elf Druide named Marakunda

Anyone know if this works through WINE?

>>2592 Yes, it works on WINE.

>>2593 Sweet.

Rolling a Human Mage named Sehnsucht, see you guys there.

My client seems to be stuck at "Handshaking". Did do something wrong?

>>2597 Nevermind, I forgot to update the client.

Are you guys playing or not?

>>2594 Just make sure you run it with -opengl. >>2611 I played for a while and found no one else, so didn't bother continuing. If other people are, I'll be up for it....

>>2612 I'm already at level 15, but I can never find anyone online, I don't know if I should keep playing or not.

>>2612 Eh, haven't really got the time, but I'll probably be on this weekend. I'm Romanus, a lvl.3 Mage. **I couldn't think of a cool name..** >>2611 Alright, thanks for the tip.

I'll come and play if I can get it working on gentoo It's been over 6 years since I last played...

>>2613 I am busy usually, so i play when i have freetime. you will see me on during the weekends. I hope the guild needs a druid. I haven't even joined yet.

>>2613 I'm downloading the installer and emerging WINE as I speak, I'll be able to play but I won't be on 24/7. Evenings and weekends for me

Just in time for college, thanks lainon, loading up WINE now!

>tfw want to go on lainchan IRC >paranoid about IP what do

>>2644 I thought the same, when i was about to join our IRC, heh. I'd have to be behind a bouncer :/ Maybe kalyx should consider moving the channel to a network with host masking.

>>2644 Ask the freenode staff for a mask.

>>2644 >>2645 >>2646 https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks

mole_rat, checking in doing some grinding tonight.

I'm on a mac are we all on vanilla wow or the 4chan server?

I'm not really seeing anyone on. I'm level 10 now. gonna do leatherworking and skinning

Damn I play on Nostalrius...

I'll be popping up on Nostalrius. Keltie the Rogue Let's stab things for XP

I start play on TheRebirth, but didn't see other players. Has it point playing on this server at all if i want go to battle grounds and dungeon raids? My character's name is Fuan. It works on old machine under wine, btw.

Hey friends if anyone is playing on Dalaran WoW hit me up. IGN: Blomma, Tauren Druid

But Burning crusade was best WoW.

>>2988 Its all the same game with just more content every patch and some changed classes every now and then. I'd say WOTLK is were its at. I just wish everyone didn't have to play DKs. I don't know about how they are in end game WOTLK but when I was playing WoD Monks were probably the most OP class. Seeiosuly they get food melee, some dps, and healing. That's not fair in any way.

I might join up. Just finishing downloading the 1.12.1 client right now and looking through the available addons

>>3057 Try look forchan paste: http://pastebin.com/pvfNSeN0

Im in what times do you all play at best?

>WoW >not something cyberpunk/sci-fi like PSOBB or SMT Imagine

>>3120 gnome's and goblin's cities are sort of sci-fipunk >SMT Imagine ohshii~ i still procrastinate get familiar with series

>>3117 I've already found what I need for now. Thanks, though. I've got a level 10 Troll Shaman called Andreth right now if anyone wants to add me. I've been playing a bit ever day but I end up idling watching streams a lot too.

Is the guild still relatively active? How many people still play on rebirth?

>>3144 Not that many these days, but Peons United is still reasonably active. Can't say much about Hate though because I have no clue.
