I think that it is a bit harsh to say that it is worthless, or means nothing, like the den the Shack has it's supporters, I myself only played on it when the den was down and to be honest, that hasn't happened very often at all.

For those that think oh HAHA just close it down who gives a shit, just think about the players that have levelled toons to level 70, and that play on the Shack everyday, just coz you don't like it yourself is no reason to want it closed down..

Just my opinion..

Allright. My opinion about this.
The Shack has always been so empty it was starting to produce tumbleweeds. So my idea is: make the raids higher! From future experience i have noticed that higher rate servers are very popular. Good thing is, you -probably- don't have to delete the already level 70 characters, and the popularity will rise wich is also good for the level 70s, because they can start raiding then, if they have enough people that is. Also a bit of personal gain Maybe i'll make a character there then

Greetz, Illy

Shack

2. Informal. radio shack.

—Verb phrase
3. shack up, Slang.
a. to live together as husband and wife without being legally married.
b. to have illicit sexual relations.
c. to live in a shack: He's shacked up in the mountains.

Den

–noun
1. the lair or shelter of a wild animal, esp. a predatory mammal.
2. a room, often secluded, in a house or apartment, designed to provide a quiet, comfortable, and informal atmosphere for conversation, reading, writing, etc.
3. a cave used as a place of shelter or concealment.

the den just Sounds more interesting

Heres a Few Reasons Why the shack should be shut down,

1. if so few ppl play it why even bother
2. Using bandwidth which means more $$$
3. Not currently being supported due to the fact of No 1 playing on it.

well said!

Oh' where do people who don't play the Shack have the right to vote anyway, I don't see any Poll to shut down the Den. If we shut down the Den then there will be lots of people on the Shack! No more instant gratification, they will have to work for level! Ha!

See how it feels...

Muwhahaha....

No, the shack is a great server, maybe there's few ppl that plays it but it's nice to find a blizzlike or 1.5x server where most of the quests works and it's a great option for those who can be playing all the day wow to lvl the char to 255...and also for those who wanna know about the story behind the quest..

i have 255 chars in the den that maxed proff that have t6... but while im studying i dont have lots of time to spent playing so i usually log in the shack
actually i have a 70 lock max in alchemy and herbalism & i have done my epic quest and farming rep with factions/ a 61 druid skinner /a 35 priest tailor...and others chars ....AND like me there are more ppl who are having fun there...yeah we are few but we are happy to play there...so i hope the shack never get down...

Wow. If I read what people have to say about this, I only have one conclusion O.O

Keep The Shack and for you people who hate it, stop thinking about yourself. I don't like it either but it's not that i'm screaming it from the rooftops. There are people who play on The Shack, look very closely you might see some. Wouldn't it be sad for all those brand new level 70's that their characters would just.. poof.. disappear? What if they would wipe the Den, would you like that? I don't think so You could at least change a few things.. Change exp rates, loot rates, but just delete it? No that would be too much I think
Just my two cents.

Greetz, Illy.

Pro Shack Rebuttal
1. So few people play on it because "Some"officers trash it because they are too lazy to support it, and they would rather
"Blame the Victim"!
2. The Den uses way more bandwidth because there are more people on it, not to mention all the posts begging for stuff in the Forums.
3. Circular logic, GOTO # 1.
4. Failure to comprehend that if Shack was supported, more people would play, Stay, and Pay
