Hello everyone, due to a malfunction with my email because of the mass amounts of requests, I am unable to respond to everyone via email, so I will post here, the location of the forums can be found at forums.truewow.net
The servers are not yet online but we will post information on the forums.
We recommend that you register immediately as the forum will become invite-only tomorrow!
Hello everyone, True WoW, the 1.12.1 server ran by me is coming back, and very soon.
Due to new financial support, technology and the fact that I just have the available time, I will be re-releasing True WoW. It will still use the 1.12.1 client, dont worry, but unlike the previous one, we are running on Trinity Zero, this means many bug fixes, and updates. We will be releasing True WoW beta VERY soon, so tell your friends, and email me at cyberxzt@zine-tech.com with the subject ‘WoW-Beta’ to join!
Thanks!
EDIT: Although we do already have a server team, if anyone interested in working on the server, please contact me by the email posted above. Thanks!
Remember Shattered Dreams, that MMORPG that I was working on and had stopped? Well, after alot of discussion, I have decided to bring it back! I plan to release an open beta early 2010. Also, I will release more information about it such as the story line soon. Shattered Dreams will be a free 3D MMORPG with an ever expanding game world. Stop by soon for more information and news!
If you have been following my recent posts or other emulation resources then you may already know, but the letter that many servers have received, is real. I wont go into detail about it in this post but here are some sources confirming the letter:
It is rumored that Blizzard Entertainment has gone after the larger private servers because of the way people were making money off of Blizzard’s work. This however, has not been confirmed.
For more information on the whole case, refer back to my previous post, Click Here.
Well, as some people may already know, many private servers have received DMCA notices and other warnings within a day. Currently, It is being disputed wether or not these notices are real although some people insist they are. Now, I am not a lawyer but these are my ideas on private servers being legal or not.
Is using a private server illegal?
The answer use to be no however a recent MySpace suicide court case has turned this answer into a yes which allows Blizzard to attack anyone who has disobeyed the ToU (ToS) or has visited a private server.
Is hosting a private realm illegal?
Not really, as long as it is empty of Blizzard created entities or stolen source code.
Is hosting a private realm login server illegal?
Yes, it allows a user to get past normal account login and payment systems.
Is hosting a blizz-like server illegal?
Yes, It is using copyrighted materials.
Upon the announcement of the DMCA notices, (which can be downloaded HereandSupposed Author) numerous websites have gone completely offline and a rare amount have posted about this incident like www.ani-wow.com:
Update (12/04/08):We’re sorry to inform our users (you) that our “World of Warcraft” server will be closed, due to a “legal DMCA” complain letter from “Blizzard Entertainment Inc”.
We’ve received the letter this morning, and it’s been confirmed to be real, we have to get rid of all “World of Warcraft” content within 24/hours, and for obvious reasons we have agreed to cooperate with this DMCA letter and close “AniWoW” down.. ———————————————————————————————–
Blizzard Entertainment is taking serious action to take down all unauthorized private “WoW” game servers/and or content related to “illegal use of emulators” within the next days..
- This isn’t just for us, all private servers will eventually receive this letter, as there’s a huge list of private servers listed in the DMCA letter… ———————————————————————————————–
We sincerely ask you to please take this under moderation, and NOT to blame Blizzard for their actions. They deserve the right to do what they did.
It’s been a fun time, and we appreciate and thanks all our users for the support and cooperation in making our community a fun place for everyone. This however, have come to a end.. and we believe this to be our final good bye.
(We’ll be opening a “community” forum, NOT related to “World of Warcraft” within the few days. So if you still want to keep in touch with members from our previous community, we’d like to ask you to stay tuned for more information regarding this notice). AniWoW ( 1 Years, 6 Months, 4 days… )
May 10, 2007 – December 04, 2008…
Once again, thank you all! *drops a tear*

Although most server owners insist this information is true, some do speculate it to be an attack on higher-ranked websites and this information is followed up by grammar, missing legal information, and other errors. I am sorry if this information is sort of jumbled, Its two in the morning here and I am not thinking straight.
UPDATE 1: After reviewing the notice sent out and other works by the Firm, some of the “mistakes” mentioned by users are not mistakes at all and appears to point towards a real notice. Some “mistakes” pointed out that are not mistakes after all are the multiple phone numbers displayed (simple explanation for that is that one is the actual authors number and the other is the Firm) and the missing “O” in the logo on the paper. The “O” can be missing because the paper used to originally print out the notice could of been printing into color, rendering the “O” yellow. When scanned into another computer and changed to greyscale, this can cause the “O” to simply vanish. Don’t believe me? Try it. Finally, the word “Blizzard” pointed out in the notice could of been written to name Blizzard Entertainment by what it is usually referred to, which is in fact just “Blizzard.” As for the typos and grammar errors, they do happen, don’t they?
I plan on looking into this more later today (if required) but for now, good luck.
Well, I haven’t posted in awhile, mostly because of a project I have been working on, andd school is starting school. This new project that I am working on is a Hamachi-like VPN client. It’s primary use is for playing classical games that have problems playing on today’s computer. It offers support for IPX, TCP/IP, LAN Only gaming, “Patch Browser,” and more! It is currently named “ZNet.” I am currently looking for some testers. Those that want to test will be able to play some classic video games with me and other testers/developers. If you want to be a tester, contact me! Testing is free, so sign up!
I am now offering webhosting to those who want/need it. My actual web hosting website is still not yet done, however users can receive free/paid hosting by going to the following links:
Well unfortunately, due to problems linking my PayPal account to my checking account, I will probably have to delay the launch of my webhosting company. This delay is expected to actually take up to a month. I am kind of mad about this, but good things can’t be rushed. Heh.
Well I have decided that my webhosting site will be finished in a few days. Because of this I plan to officially open the website on Monday, August 18th, thats exactly one week from now. So, stay tune!
