Nostalrius shut down

Some, But is some enough for blizzard to fund servers, staff, etc for it? I'm guessing no. Otherwise actibilizzard would have already been capitalizing off it.

I'm guessing yes. actibilizzard can probably create more jobs and profit financially off of it, but choose not to because fragmenting their player base officially is likely not worth the relative small profits from legacy servers from their point of view.

Edit: And one more thing. how many people here actually bought and paid for the titanium client?
Same idea goes for Nost. How many of those people do you think actually bought the client from blizzard?

I'm guessing 99.9% of the people here on p99 has legally paid for EQ at some point in their lives. I'm guessing 90%-95% of the people on Nost have also paid for WoW at some point in their lives as well. Most people, however, most likely did not buy it to play retail, and then buy it again to play a private server. Why would we? We already bought it once and want to play what we bought, not what SOE or Blizzard turned their games into.
