there was times when RDF didnt exist however they had LFG system and everyone was using it.here however we dont have that and we have to use Global chat and read all the spam you dont give a ****.
anyway i hope after summer break lordearon pop will go up again.
I remember those days well on retail before RDF and I canmot even begin to tell you how so much better it was for the community. You actually spent time finding great people, who you became friends with, close to, shared fun times with, laughed, cried, screamed at, argued, cursed and laughed again.Quote:

I've just this week joined Warmane, and in my first two hours, I queested on azuremytst with someone else to do soem shared quests... you see other players kiling mobs you want, click party, help out, smile at each other, say hi, make friends or move on....
God I missed those days and they are bloody back.... wow...
And all you can say is that it's boring gathering a group for small instances.. no mate.. you're finding your own in game family of really good friends to enjoy so many game experiences with...
Warmane.. if you ever switch on the RDF facility... I'll come and find where your server is located and I'll put a bloody axe to it...!! ;-) (kidding, but you get the drift...)
I stopped playing a few months ago because of lack of time. I wanted to get back on it but I saw that the population dropped drastically. Do you know if it's planned to delete this realm? I like to play WoW on a x1 rate and don't want to change this habit.
EDIT : I agree that RDF spoiled social interractions in the game.
/facepalm...Quote:

lordearon has been around for a lot longer. old lord was here 5+ years ago. it was not remade until later after it became warmane due to the molt-down. read the hardcore explanation above.Quote:

Oh also, I guess you are right, people went to the other realm because it gets faster to get high level
do you even play on this server? if you have even stepped foot in ICC on lord you would know that it is most certainly buffed far beyond 'class balancing'Quote:
