I bet it’s gonna continue running, new name, new IP, and not as heavily advertised.

TurtleWoW is the only wow i’ve ever played. But it was really good it felt every bit as good as the real thing. Towns were populated, chat was active, people were friendly. It had everything you could want. Hopefully it doesnt acutally die.

A company as valuable as blizzard could easily just fold this type of operation into itself rather than crushing it.

I’d have paid to play turtle wow. A true classic+

But blizzard is stupid, like everything run by greed ultimately ends up stupid.

I’m increasingly glad I stopped giving money to Blizzard years ago.

It seems to me that Turtle Wow was a great idea… BUT their decision to start advertising their presence across MULTIPLE platforms indicates to me that they were trying to cash in, by existing their donation base, before the inevitable end. I can’t accept that they are as culpable in their closure as Blizzard was. They could have kept their heads down and did their thing, but announcing an unreal release, and having an ad campaign… Huh? They did nothing but expedite their end. So while they may have been better then Blizzard (not a hard thing to do) it feels empty to trumpet them like they saviors. Imo, they took advantage of their players.

ahhh sad news, i dabbled around on Turtle occasionally and they definitely had one of the friendlier pserver populations in my experience

I enjoyed playing on their servers in the past, it was one of the more refined servers.

Wonder if they will release the code as a final middle finger.

Rip turts. You were my favorite one
