We need to drive away more players and make the server smaller in order to preserve it.

Hosting private servers is explicitly against Blizzard's Terms of Use, a rule the company says "isn’t an issue because of ‘lost’ subscription fees from players choosing these illegitimate servers over the real WoW servers—it simply boils down to the fact that private servers are illegal, and that’s that."

Uh, no, it's definitely because of the lost subscription fees. Why even bother to deny it, what a fucking joke

The Internet Archive's Jason Scott suggested to Ars that a Nostalrius-style server could serve as a kind of "colonial village model [of preservation], where you hire people to walk around like 1990s assholes."

"We might eventually see people whose job is to play older games and speak in language that is accurate to the period and use techniques that were popular then to take you on," he said. "I don't think that's that farfetched an idea... not for something that has had such an impact... where a person could play an older version of Warcraft with people who are in their 40s and 50s as they used to play it in their teens."


uhhh WHAT LOL!
