Initial release dates were great. It would have been better to just delay phase 1 raids by 1 week. That way both the "want to grind/afk during holidays" would have been addressed.

I agree with the previous message. Postponing the date is a very strange decision. Make a poll in order to be adequate.
Perfect timing, thank you Warmane! My vacation is coming up, so I’ll finally have time to play properly. For most people, this period is actually better than after the Christmas holidays — since we’re on vacation and have time to relax.
And those who say it should be released later are probably all from the same Discord, trying to delay the WotLK launch for their own benefit. The majority of the server actually wants to play during this time — it’s vacation season!
I have sad news, wotlk will be relased after vacation
A huge thank you to the server administration for listening to working adults who have families.
In any case, you guys screaming for WOTLK will only play it in Phase 1. Phase 2 will be a disappointment for you and your RL/GM, so earlier or later doesn't matter to you.
+1 1 week for the nax prep seems kinda not enough for people with work, families, and duties
"Great" decision to delay Northrend even further.
People are already bored with SWP, "here, play it for another month".
Most of us were expecting WotLK before Christmas, now we have another month of SWP.
This was our schedule with previous release dates:
3.12. SWP
10.12. SWP
15.12. HS/BT with wotlk mains and talents
17.12. SWP with wotlk mains and talents
22.12. HS/BT with wotlk mains and talents
27.12. Northrend
3.12. 10man (Naxx)
5.12. 10man (OS,EoE)
7.12. 25man (Naxx)
12.12. 25man (OS,EoE)
Our schedule now:
3.12. SWP
10.12. SWP
17.12. maybe again boring SWP
waiting
waiting
waiting
10.1. Northrend
17.1. 10man (Naxx)
Thank you again Warmane for the great decision.
Now we have to spend Christmas/Holidays with our families and getting drunk instead of leveling in Northrend.
+1
Christmas is on the 24th, 25th, and 26th of December. The time between Christmas and New Year’s Eve is perfect for a little gaming. During the day, you spend time with family and friends, and afterward, you can enjoy some “you time.”
Delaying the release to skip over all that free time is just stupid. It only takes a few people to complain, and you guys just bend over? Damn…
And I’m pretty sure all of those people who cried about the initial release date would still play no matter what.
I could understand if the case was you guys were behind on schedule, but if you weighted your decision to postpone mostly on these handful of people who want "a later release", thats quite a questionable decision to go through with. People WILL leave becuase they have to wait, which is detrimental to your own project. If anything, Prepatch needs to be released way before christmas so that people "something new to play with".
Since you hurried up to change the timeline in favor of few people, be decent and get us a pool, so people can vote and decide.
