I'm new to these private servers and I noticed how unfair Pvp/Bg/Arena is due to the lack of gear new players have. Everyone basically has the best gear in the game and this is causing unbalance in pvp. I have donated but can not donate enough to get a full set up gear. I'm considering uninstalling and supporting Blizz as they are making a vanilla server.
I really would like to give icecrown/warmane a shot but the gear makes it so unbalanced it's sick.
