    Oh man, there’s tons to choose from! I play on truewow.org ( i don’t actually recommend them, but just as an example so you can see what one looks like)

    You pick your favorite expansion first, then start googling around for pirate servers.

    • GOOD SERVERS ARE FTP with donations allowed for QoL and vanity items

    • Pay attention to population levels and community vibe, they can vary.

    • There used to be a great resource on Reddit, what was it called? brainfart

    • Oh yeah /r/wowservers/

    • Feel free to ask any other questions, i am not up to date on new servers but have played various private servers for years

        No, though since i recalled wowservers ive been lurking and see glowing reviews of it. \Scowl maybe too glowing…lol.

        Hmm, It’s a classic server with modified classes and new quests, open since 2019 i guess? Looks like they have a strong pop …

        The modified classes and quests look really fun. You didn’t ask my opinion (sorry) but as long as their server is located outside the states, they are FtP and they don’t have PtW, I’d say give em a shot!

      you can also start your own server if you want to play single player, but you should probably install either the auto balance mod or the janky playerbots https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk

      I thought it was a fun coding project and I hate playing with random people (wow community is scary and stressful imo) so my partner, parents and I play on the server and are having a very relaxing time.
