Once they split the servers the excitement and thrill were gone. After that you could be standing around all alone with nobody but you for as far as you could see. No more getting jumped, no more thrill of play, no more meeting random people through circumstances....but you had the whole of zones all to yourself. You could log in ... to a hollow world.
To be honest, the time to play vanilla WoW had passed long before Blizzard opened their Classic servers. If you didn't experience Nostalrius or its spin-off servers (Elysium and Light's Hope), you missed the boat. Blizzard made too many compromises (non-classic AV, non-classic client, sharding, etc.) for the experience to be truly classic.
