Turtle WoW

I looked at reddit. They have a subreddit called wow private servers. I was interested in the "Custom" private server category, and saw Turtle WoW described as a vanilla roleplaying server.

A vanilla roleplaying server is really something unique and Turtle WoW is the first I've ever seen described as such. That's what got me interested!

I recommend posting on places like reddit for advertisements!

Your reddit topic about a sands of time feature.

The place I usually find servers is the list on reddit's /wowservers list. I don't remember where I ended up finding it. I think it was DKPminus as well. Cute video, by the way.

I joined because the only other server I know that is 1x and allows multiboxing is Kronos I, and I did not have the best experience there. I think account trading over there is too rampant, because there are too many max leveled players over there that have no idea what they're doing.

Anyway, Roleplay is neat. I've had IRP installed since.. before The Rebirth closed, so it's really cool to be on a server where suddenly everyone has character descriptions.

The server is good. Nothing all that game breaking. I'm not sure I'd quit over anything just yet.

Honestly i saw the ad on reddit wow private servers or something that it was pretty new and you can experience every single quest so i thought they must be fully working since i have never done all quests before so it was fun. Small community is good for me when you can see same people online and chat with them. Also cool GMs and AH monopoly from time to time on certain items :D

How I heard: A friend of mine found it after literally googling "Vanilla WoW servers".

Why I stayed: I've had a lot of fun, was immediately greeted by a very kind and helpful person who's character is "Belladonna". Then, while levelling, I ran into "Sweet" the guild leader of "Molten Core Salvage Ops" over on Alliance side and once again was greeted with kindness and helpfulness. I've joined that guild and never looked back. Every member is kind and always helps each other out with items / patterns / tips / dungeons, ect. Even from other members of the server I've had nothing but joyful experiences. Honestly I stay mostly for the community; I might be quiet and mostly just listen / lurk but I'm still proud to say I play here.

Played pvp vanilla server, did not like been ganked. Wanted to change class.
Googled "pve vanilla server" found turtle-wow. Played few hours, it was fun. Read next day description lower xp rates... Logged in after work because quest areas was not battlegrounds and no fighting over quest items and boars etc. Hoping for more hordes to be able to find groups more often for dungeons/quests.

For me a turtle flew by and whispered all the info i needed to start over here.

I've actually watched their official trailer on reddit and it got my attention.

I rolled a couple of characters on Symmetry last year with friends.. had an absolute blast questing after so many years away ( left Retail after WOTLK).
Unfortunately account appears to no longer exist after a few months off the server, so Google'd PvE vanilla WoW and here I am. Only been involved a couple of days and already spent most of my time questing with others. Very much appreciate the easygoing environment. Also just pulled the trigger on Hardcore at lvl 9.

Seen the video of Dodgy too, but already found out about Turtle Wow before by searching on google for a vanilla server

(this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSLJnp-0Sf4)

Over the last year I've played plenty private servers I put alot of time in at Light's Hope but i was looking for a more RP focused server. I saw Dodgy's video and loved the concept, I really hope the server manages a long life time. I've enjoyed myself and I've only ran into a handful of people. :)

Watched a youtube video by dodgy kebab recommending you guys :)

I watched dodgykababs video on youtube and that made me want to play here

I used to play on a server called The Rebirth--life made me take a hiatus--and I came back to my guild being in shambles; I pretty much didn't play there anymore after that, and it eventually ceased to be.

Went back to retail for a spell, got bored eventually and didn't re-sub.

Searched for a private server and found VanillaGaming--I had several 60s on both sides there--but I got really sick of logging in to main cities being raided, auctioneers and bankers killed, or the occasional (because I forgot to wait to be de-flagged before logging) being murdered immediately upon logging in. I don't need that kind of dumb crap in my life. And I certainly don't want to deal with nonsense like that anymore.

I then specifically searched for an RP Vanilla server on Google, and I came across Turtle-WoW in some list or another of servers. I watched the ad video and thought it was cute and welcoming. So, then I visited the web page and saw all the features never implemented in WoW that Staff was advertising. I was very much interested in seeing what it was all about; I made an account and got started immediately.

My start was a bit rocky at first, but I eventually found myself a place in a guild that I adore very much. I've had a lot of fun, and made some good connections. It's a great server as far as I'm concerned. Thank you all Staff for your dedication and care.

-- Much love, Gracemourn <3

Up. This thread is always relevant.

My bf showed my your first video on youtube, with the "ello mon" and i loved it
Went to the site, saw the scraped features from Vanilla added here, which got me more excited.

PS: Many thanks to the Turtle staff for all your hard work!

I always searched for a vanilla server with good custom features, found turtle wow on youtube in 2019 and got interested by the project.

Turtle WoW is moving to the next expansion! Welcome to Rainbowlands!

google + reddit!

I googled

I saw the review Dodgykeebab did on this server and liked what i saw!

This guy told me about a server for casual PVE players. Here we go

I saw your ad on Reddit. :)

happened upon turtlewow by complete surprise, honestly!

been having an itch to play WoW again for a while, mainly RP servers since i haven't roleplayed on WoW in years and i kinda missed it. saw turtlewow was listed as a "pve/rp vanilla server" and thought i might give it a shot since a lot of the RP servers i've been on were primarily based off WOTLK and above clients.

then i saw the features included reimplemented scrapped content and was IMMEDIATELY sold on the concept by that alone :'3

haven't played vanilla WoW in nearly a decade (i think in 2012-13 i leveled ten characters to lv60 on feenix x_x), and i think this is a fantastic way to get back into it! i love the "vanilla with sprinkles" approach the server has, and it really adds more to vanilla WoW without feeling too obtrusive like other servers that feature custom content. it really makes the leveling journey a lot more interesting!

i only happened upon this server a day or two ago, but i'm really enjoying my time here and i honestly may chip in a few bucks towards the server next month when i get the means! keep up the fantastic work, i can't wait to see what new stuff will be added in the future!

I was searching for private server that focus on RP. And then I found a video on youtube reviewing the server and after that I just gave the server a shot. Love it ever since.

A cool review by Dodykebaab got me into it

I was thinking of getting back into Vanilla, and found Turtle amongst the list of servers. Enjoying the levelling experience rather than speed levelling (although without wanting to go the other way into hardcore slow levelling) was a good alignment in values, so that made Turtle top of my list. The Dodgykebab review also helped. So I gave it a go and am liking it!

Youtube recommended your videos and I liked the concept.

Dodgykebaab's youtube channel did a review of you and it piqued my interest.

Word of mouth, pure luck-- passing reference to this server by someone in a rant thread about how bad modern MMOs are. :)
