Is this still in development? And if so, when will it be finished?

It's still in development but that's pretty much all I can tell. :)

Okay, thanks. I'm fairly new here so I was hoping it was still in the works.

PreBC is sort of done, so to speak. But the problem is every time I get it up for testing no GMs do anything. I mean we need to revise a bit of it to make it more enjoyable and the core GMs that want to help run it usually don't offer much advise or go AFK all day and therefore I just quit worrying about it. This has happened multiple times when I was trying to get PreBC open and I just got really frustrated.

Another problem we do still face is what happened last time when we opened the Pre-BC realm. We obviously want them to share a realmlist and accounts with the TBC server like we did last time so people that already made accounts can play again, but we'll need to do it in other tabs or something because last time they were all under the "English" tab and if you were brand new to the server you were automatically assigned to the Pre-BC realm due to the fact it has lower population -- which was very annoying and we think might have been affecting the population of the TBC realm. But we're not sure.

Ah, good to hear it's "sort of" done.

I have a question about the realm, will it be like smolderforge TBC, or will it be a levelling server?

Anyways, GM's - you better start testing the server. :P

It was the same as when it was originally opened - Instant 60, start with DS1, working professions and economy, free trainer spells, free flight paths, start with LBRS work to Molten Core, etc.

Doing a leveling 60 server would be hard.

If you get that server up it'll be awesome. Best core on the best version of WoW, zomg.

this might be a dumb question, but is there any chance of arenas at 60?
