When did you start playing WoW?

So, we're all here for one reason: Classic WoW. I never actually got to play vanilla (besides private servers), and didn't start playing until BC. However I definitely prefer BC / vanilla over retail. I'm guessing the majority of you all started during vanilla, but perhaps I'm wrong. When did you start playing?

I did start during Vanilla, but my "prime time" was during Burning Crusade. I played on my brother's account for some time before I got my own.

I do like Vanilla, and Burning Crusade. I do think I prefer Burning Crusade to some degree, but not by a whole lot.

I think the first time I made a character in WoW was during MoP but the first time I actually played and bought a subscription was only recently in Legion.
I did play on private Vanilla and WotLK servers now and then.

Seems like I missed a bunch by not being there when it first appeared, but really glad I have the chance now.

Actually started playing in Classic, at my best friends house on his dads PC; but didn't really start playing it properly myself until BC.

Technically, I started playing when Warcraft 2 was new on my cousin's CPU as a teenager. It was the first game I ever sat and played for consecutive hours without getting up. In a way I was molded by it. I did not see Vanilla until I was already a man.

6 months after release. I had NO Idea what the hell was going on and looking back, it was hilarious. I didn't play any Warcraft games prior so I had no previous knowledge of the world or anything. I remember thinking at like level 6 that Teldrasill might have been as big as the game got, lol. /smh

Roughly two weeks after launch. A friend of mine gave me a WoW 10-day trial key, which changed my life forever.

I was free of the MMO world since the late 90s when my recruiter got me playing EQ with him. . . Then in early 2004 I got pulled into DOAC by qacouple friends of mine. Well, that game sucked (for me) and didnt pull me in. But when WoW came out in Nov 04, I bought it the day of release, installed it, then went to language school for the afternoon-evening time slot. After that I proceeded to stay awake for months on end with minimal sleep.... grinding... raiding.... pvping...

I started in the end of vanilla and dinged just before TBC hits. So Im quite looking forward to enjoy full vanilla feeling. :)
