I wonder if this will mean more and more servers are going to be sued. I've been playing on private servers since 2012, I play hours each day, and the future does not look very bright if this keeps happening I'm afraid...
Just two days ago I started my journey as a blood elf hunter :-)
The problem with private servers is that they seem to be addicted to OVH. I get it that it's cheap, has nice routes and usually they don't give a damn about what you host, but it's a single point of failure. I wonder if many of those servers are about to move to Ukraine (Russia) or something like that :-)
Ah, and believe me, some of them make ludicrous amounts of money, have paid employees, etc. It's not just a community. They all forked MaNGOS or TrinityCore and starting piling up their fixes on top of it (which they don't have to share because it's GPL, not AGPL), but some chose to pay their developers!
I'm happy to answer any questions about what it's like to play on private servers or how some stuff works in the technical side, or the community, or whatever!
Ah, the Twitter app for Android (beta version) recently added a feature that allows you to add a description to pictures you upload for impaired people.
I'm not sure, but I think WhatsApp stores your key and it sends it to your mobile so you can decrypt the backup you downloaded from Google. But you can disable backups...
And why not? A project is a project, and some twat who happens to have the keys to the Twitter account of that project should not define how you should feel about a community.
I am just linking to the picture he has willingly uploaded to his profile, my dearest friend. He can take it down whenever he wants to. Please bite a pillow to ease the anger.
