Beneath this, there will be a lot of random WoW stuff. Avoid.
What I was hoping for was pure vanilla experience. Nostalrius mostly delivered aside from client issues (which I completely understand). An example of this would be uh.. talent trees. Druids should not have hurricane as a spell, but the bottom talent of balance, classically(vanillaly). As far as content release, they should have released warsong gulch and alterac valley before arathi basin. You shouldn't have access to battlemasters in cities for a long time. One of my favorite 'emergent gameplay' WoW experiences was southshore vs tarren mill, with people having to queue for Alterac Valley in Hillsbrad.
I can type 10000 more words by request.
R.I.P. Nostalrius. Good server.

I agree that the battlemasters were a big negative, as they took away from the world pvp and added more to the isolated instance feel of it all. On vanilla, I played on RPVP servers Emerald Dream and Lightninghoof. We did a lot of world pvp on those servers, but it was always hard to keep it going in large part due to "dishonorable kills" and the way they were shared across a whole raid. I'm not even sure how much they affected our ranking, but when people would see those Dishonorable Kills, they would hearthstone and log out. DK's are a major flaw in vanilla WoW, imo.
We had some huge world pvp battles after the announcement the other night. Horde massed at the gates of Stormwind, and we battled back and forth for hours. Now the city is covered in player corpses.
