Why do people play on them? They are free, but playing real WoW is also free (or even profitable) if you sell some gold each month. | Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.

For people who cannot afford retail,they can play the game on private server
I just got into private servers for exploration,there to playing around with
GM powers,and then to developing prvate server databases for fun. |

Most people think it is more fun to be able to join a small community or create their own modifications of the game

Retail is worth a try 
I play private servers because of the small communities and to experience some of the custom instances avalible. Private servers are very nice to have if you want to test out your dps in diff specs/gear too

People (most of them) go to private servers to try things that wouldn't be possible at official servers, like mass walking speed, no cooldowns, mass damages...
I dont like private servers because most of them have lag and lots of bugs. |

Reputation: 5 Level up: 71%, 149 Points needed |  | | I used to play private servers cause I got bored of regular wow and what it had to offer cause I beat everything in the game. Then I tried all these custom instances and it was really fun but at the same time i got repetitive and boring |  |
