I played cata a lot when it was on the AT Core, that was the fun times for me, because the community at the time held it together and were fun to talk to, there were little to no bugs, and soloq was fun.
Then it merged... Then for some reason they used Warsong as a base to build the server on, when AT Core was way better. Then there were loads of bugs for the first few months, then people complained and wanted the AT Core back (it makes no sense to me why they dont have the old serv files from back when it was the AT serv), then they finally said they would go to AT Core last year around august time, and then kept delaying it for over 2 months until Malaco just said some BS about the guy doing the serv is on holiday and he wont finish it until he gets back. That was the last update. Then now they want to close it down.
1. How long can this guy be on holiday for? Tell us the truth. He isn't on holiday, you guys just don't have the resources/ don't care. (which is fine, but the community deserves the truth)
2. Stop closing threads when people tell the truth, its not flaming, you can't take criticism.
3. People bought VIP just for Cata, people were invested into that server. Warmane ****s it up and then act like nothing happened. Then on top of that act like the community doesn't exist. If you don't have the resources to build the cata serv, say so. If you don't want to, say so. Don't lie. Don't make a thread (malaco) and put up that you are going to remake the whole serv and then delay it for 2 months. People were anticipating this.
This is the problem. These guys don't know they are dealing with PEOPLE. People that invested time and money in donations into the server. Yes you are doing this for little to no money, but that doesn't allow you to treat the community like this, by giving hardly any information unless pestered to do so and delay things to a point where you have people on the serv at midnight waiting for "AT CORE RELEASE AUGUST 29TH"... Surely you WANT people to play on the serv?
You can't close the cata serv because the population is low because that doesn't detail how many people would come back if you actually put some effort into the serv. I myself (and I know a lot of people who are the same) go on the serv once ever 1-2 months, go on the threads sometimes, see if anything has changed, if it hasn't then we don't log. Simple. Make a change and the population will go up. There was hardly any maintenance on the AT serv and on top of that, hardly any complaints (compared to now). If anything release the source code for the AT serv so someone else can do it. Same way AT gave away their TBC serv. If the serv was good people would play on it. Simple.
