The best solution for the server as a whole has been posted. Lock raids for a month, rather than lock thousands to 3.3.5 TBC for a month.
Makes perfect sense for the well being of the server and its diverse players.
Uh I'm pretty sure people will be upset if you lock raids since it removes content for players to actually you know play... As Maru said before it's not only raids that are affected.. Also a WHOLE month is A LOT of time just saying.. Considering the speed rate you can get from 70-80 and start doing dungeons... Maybe a week or so later you wanna try out raids and then they are closed? What do you do then? Farm bgs/arenas to get PVP gear then i guess?
it's not just raids mate. It's game mechanics, class spells, dungeons, and class balancing.
Warmane staff seems confident and hard at work. We can keep speculating, but Proterean has already commented on the issue. He was very generous amidst all this rage.
Time will tell, I hope the staff are not the incompetent fools forum posters are making them out to be.

If they have to delay it due to bugs, then so be it. That's a perfectly valid reason to delay the expansion. However, delaying it because "I wanna play TBC content and progress through that!" or "It's exam week!" isn't a good enough reason to delay the release of WotLK. If you want to progress through TBC content, join a TBC server. This is a WotLK server. I don't understand why that's so hard to grasp.
when a guild clears nax,os,eoe on ptr without experiencing MAJOR bugs, then its release ready. In its current state none of the raids can be cleared even if everyone is in cata gear.
Once again, this is wotlk expansion! So if some1 wanna play TBC lock your exp bar and stay plaing TBC. And how can u like "this" TBC when all raids can be cleared with a pug??? IS that exp u want? U can clear all raid inst with your guild but still any pug raid can do it.. This is not hard more what it used to be, if u were the raider on retail u know this TBC exp is super duper easy!! So give us Wotlk so can we start with serous SH*ET! TY come again!

quoted for truth
please dont release half assed wotlk raids, either delay 80 cap or just lock the raids
Just log PTR, no speculation there. (They said that respawns weren't like they will be on live due to dynamic balancing tunes, rest is same)
Found 3 warlock class bugs already and only tried one spec (not to mention the raids we tried since everyone else already did)
No one here wants to delay WotLK to raid TBC if you think that's what we are suggesting, what's your hurry to get to 80? You like Dalaran so much more for AFKing? I find Shattrath just as good.
Give us Wotlk lands so we can lvlup do some rep, prof, 5 mans inst, but you dont need to release Naxx etc in that time. U can test Naxx more and make it all works than release. But in that time we will have alot of things to do in wotlk content. So 10 Dec is ok. WE CANT W8! :)
All of you complaining about Warmane developers / scripting. What do you Actually know about it? How many people are working on it? How long? Is the latest patch of bugfixes applied on PTR? All you do is "think" and talk nonsense.
So what if Naxx is released on 10th and it's bugged? Are you gonna Raid it on day one? You're that good? /respect. No one ever thought that they maybe want to release WOTLK in order for people to actually have something to do other to sit in Shat? Oh except for you hardcore PvE Raiders who're dominating the PvE scene with all the Realm First stuff, killing Mana Tombs, Arcatraz etc.
Wotlk =/= Naxx.
If you used your brain for a sec, you'd know , even if Naxx isn't 99% working by 20th, they can keep it locked until they're satisfied with it, and release it. So you can chase your precious Realm First. Again, with so little Info, you jumped so hard, it's just sad.
Just to add a novelty concept here... if you want the content delayed, because bugs will annoy you, meaning you're up to waiting "an extra month" to play the content, how about you yourself take a break for that month if the quality of the released content happens to not be up to par with your mega corporation-level expectancy? Assuming we don't reach your specific quality threshold, let people who aren't worried about those specific things still play, while you "wait as much as needed," like you would if it was globally delayed.
