The above items, are a range of some of the most desireable Pre-TBC Epics, The ones that were supposedly truely "Epic" unlike todays 'epix'.
Shall i tell you what i see?
Useless stats, appaling itemisation , Clueless set bonuses. These were the items you grinded the same instances for. these were the items it took 39 of your friends to obtain.
The Game has moved on, itemisation has on the whole improved, as has not only player skill and organisation, but encounter design. No longer do people pay £8.99 per month to look at the few people on your server who got such items.
Now almost anyone who wants to can see the content - But! there is still challenge for the more hardcore raiders - Sarth 3D, Undying/Immortal - Titles, achievements and mounts that set the better apart from the rest.
I suspect most people who wish from Pretbc servers look back through rose tinted glasses - Yes we all reminices - Your Elderly relatives reminise about when they were young 'During the War' or whatever. I Would also guess that none of them would chose to live 'Back in the War'.
Becareful what you wish for, If you really want PreTBC servers i personally think you need your head examined.
