Hi everyone, Wubbie here!

My love for Warcraft started at the very first game: Warcraft Orc & Humans. One of the very first multiplayer games i played with my brothers. After that i continued my journey with Warcraft 2, 3 and the expansions. So i was very eager to try World of Warcraft when it was announced. Living in the EU, i had to wait for it to be released in the EU. But i could pass the time with an open beta invite from Gamespy. So i played a while on a US server and leveled a Paladin to around level 50. I made my first character, a Nightelf Priest named Mana on the Burning Legion-EU server when World of Warcraft released on the 11th of February 2005. I've raided with my Priest and cleared MC through Naxx. After that i played other characters on different servers and eventually switch to the horde side near the end of the vanilla era. And i played through all expansions with the horde.

One of my best memories playing vanilla has to be playing a Dwarf Hunter named: Wubbie. I've leveled him solo to level 60 on a server with no real life friends during a time that most of my real life friends i played with stopped playing World of Warcraft. I started PvPing heavily with my hunter and got to rank 10 out of the 14 ranks with no pvp partners or groups.

So i'm very excited to go on the journey again in World of Warcraft classic!

My goals are:
- Leveling a Dwarf Hunter to level 60.
- Casually PvPing and doing a dungeon once in a while.
- Making many alts, because i love all classes.
- Enjoying my time and taking it easy, i don't have all the spare time i had at the ago of 16 when i started with World of Warcraft. Wife and two kids and a full time job forces me to play for max 1 hour in the evening.

Bye!

Hey you guys, good to have you :)

Apparently this is a place where people chat about Classic WoW? Weeeell sign me up! P.S. y'all got a Discord?

Heard about this place for a while. Woke up at 3 AM and browsing the web on my phone and decided "Hey, maybe having an account at BC wouldn't be a bad idea."

Yo soupa glad you finally decided to register an account! Welcome :smile:

We don't have a Discord no, this is it!

Hi I'm HotdogWater and I'm a recovering alt-oholic. I started playing retail in Cata, although I've been involved in the pserver community on and off for several years. I've capped each class at various points throughout my time on retail but I'm looking forward to maining an orc Warrior and devoting my time to making him great so I can truly experience vanilla.

Will be looking for friends and guildies to play with so HMU when classic comes out and we can play. No weirdos :p

Hey all. I think I found this place through reddit? Been playing WoW on and off since early TBC. Looking forward to playing Classic fairly casually, probably as a Human Paladin. My real goal with Classic though is to do what I can to have it be successful in the hopes that Blizz makes TBC servers eventually.

I'm Cletus! I've been playing since release in 2004. I told my brother there was no way I was going to pay $15 per month to play a video game. I've been online for the release of every single expansion since. I have taken a few 1 and 2 month breaks here and there and learned how to play guitar during an extended break during WoD because it was terrible. I have recently stopped playing BFA because it sucks in different ways. I cannot wait till classic drops.

I'm his brother and I can confirm. The Bad Bad Dolamite!

World of Warcraft summed up in two sentences hahaha

Welcome to all the new registrations. :biggrin:

Barrens.chat is blowing up lately, so many new names!

Hello people of barrens chat :)

First of all i would like to say that i really love this site and it gives me the good old vanilla vibes.

My name is Rambo, i startet playing wow in final beta 2004. I played a NE rogue on EU-Daggerspine(Laggerspine) named Starforce and i have been playing on and off since EU launch 11 feb 2005. My chars (Main Human Paladin Râmbo) are now all on Ravencrest but i currently have no active sub. I, like many of you miss the good old vanilla feeling and can't wait to play classic.
Currently leaning towards playing an undead rogue because most of my irls want to play horde this time arround.

Hello Barrens Chat!

I've been a bit of a lurker for a while now. Been excited for Classic since it's announcement and can't stop checking for updates since.

I started playing WoW in February '05 on Bloodhoof-Main'd a NE Rogue (Vasher) through TBC. Then I switched to warrior in WotLK (after trying DK for a bit). I was a "hardcore" raider through most of it and grew kind of bored of WoW at the very end of Wrath, right before Cata. Those Vanilla/TBC years were the best raiding/social experience and overall best online gaming experiences I've had to date. Looking to hopefully re-capture some of that glorious nostalgia a lot of us are craving from some our past vanilla experiences.

Of course it will be different now that I'm in my late twenties, married and working. Still I look forward to visiting Azeroth once more, and will binge as much as I can none the less :)

Also, been playing some LH - Northdale in the meanwhile to fill that "need" while I await the real thing.

Cheers!

Hey everyone! Heard about this forum on /r/wow and I gotta say, I love the retro design of this forum! Definitely brings back memories! I first picked up WoW in November 2005 and I've been playing ever since. I did play a couple private servers but I always found myself going back to retail. When Blizz announced Classic coming out this summer I made the decision to ditch Retail and come back home! Glad to be here!

Hey!

What's good peeps! I'm kamphare, but with more rad spelling. I'm Norwegian, recently hit level 30 irl and eagerly awaiting classic.

I've played every wow expansion including legion, but it has been a completely different game in my mind since cataclysm. I've told myself that I probably won't touch wow again with every expansion since - but I always end up going back. It's always the music that gets me, in that I start listening to music from various zones and start dreaming, which slowly reels me in - every. single. time.

...With the exception of BFA. I haven't touched it, and I haven't felt compelled to either. I feel this is an indicator of both how the game and myself have evolved with the years. Though I'm still a gamer at heart, there's something about it that isn't the same. I'm more picky about my experiences these days, and want to make the most out of my limited spare time. I also worked in video games for the last 7 years, which has definitely had an effect on how much I enjoy video games in general.

I never hit 60 in vanilla, so that's my goal for classic. Besides that, I just want to enjoy the experience.

Nice to meet you! And beautiful forums btw <3

Hi all, seeing as I have been playing WoW from Vanilla till WotLK I have been known by many names. Now however, I will be known as Krannok Stormcleaver when Classic hits! Prior to my WoW experiences, I have played all the Warcraft titles.

So I have been playing on the EU RP-PVP Defias Brotherhood for four years and I really loved that server and it's community. I have been mostly playing as the Gnome Warrior Berry Talfoot, but was also known as the Orc Hunter Yaghor Bloodspiller. I love the art someone made for me for both these characters:

I hope to get a similar experience once Classic hits, to really re immerse myself into the vast World of Warcraft. Nice to meet you all and will talk to you soon!

Berry Talfoot, Krannok Stormcleaver. These are fucking awesome names my man!

There have been some people asking about RP PvP over in this thread. Could you perhaps tell them a bit about Defias Brotherhood and what it was like?

Welcome to the site.

Bonjour !

I'm a french guy who discovered vanilla 2 days a week and one week every holiday with my father.
I played a Female nelf warrior on the French normal server Dalaran.
I will not make the same mistake and will not respec with every dungeon (why did I do that ?!) and will not take Enchant/Mining, I was so poor my guildmaster bought me my mount and helped me to repair after every dungeon...

I changed faction and server in the late BC time until the end of Wotlk.
Since then I played only one month on every new expansion then quit...

I'm really not decide If I will play on Horde side this time or Alliance...
I'm pretty sure about the class and will level a drood this time. (With a hunt and warrior every time my rest xp is full on them).

Hello everyone! I'm from Spain and I started playing back in Wotlk, in the Quel'Thalas American server, because my brother messed up registrating and when we noticed our characters were like lvl 50+ and didn't want to reroll.
I've played on an off in retail but nothing gets close to the experience I had in Wotlk and with Classic relaunching I'm looking forward to re-experience a new world for me and have fun with the game again.
I will be playing a Night Elf Hunter, choosing a class was hard but after playing one in RetroWow I'm liking them a lot.

Cheers!

I'm Minorou, some of you might recognize me from the Countdown to Classic community. I contribute a lot over there. Hi!

I've been big on the Warcraft franchise ever since Warcraft 2. I grew up on the series ever since. I started WoW as a beta tester, and continued to play from day 1 release. I started off as Alliance, then rerolled Horde on a new server as they were rolling out and founded the top PvP guild on the server. We eventually got sick of pumping out High Warlords, and switched over to raiding; even got a server first boss kill, much to the surprise of our Alliance rivals.

I'm rather proud of being one of the first 100 Bloodsail Admirals worldwide. I was rather famous for it too on my server, since I had to strip naked every time I went by goblin territory to prevent equipment damage. Every AQ raid night, everyone would watch me strip then use my Teleporter: Gadgetzan and see my raid portrait go gray as I die.

While waiting for Classic, I made a ton of vanilla WoW animated wallpapers. Check them out if you'd like, though it does require Wallpaper Engine on Steam.
