It seems like the hipster thing to say and to lie about now is that you've played in vanilla. People should just admit that they started later on in the game, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that
Edit: I meant, everyone, not anyone.

Or accept the fact that there are people who have played during the early days of WoW?
Yeah, it's really a stretch to think there's people who enjoy a game and have been playing it for years. What hipsters!

I keep myself refreshed by taking a long hiatus here and there. I took one at the end of TBC (sitting out most of Sunwell Plateau), another at the beginning of MoP (and got to play reputation catch-up like a crack-fiend), and now another mid-WoD. I'm stoked for Legion, though; and will probably return to a normal raiding schedule of some kind.

The thread is pointless and there's very little here to discuss. People will say what they say and you can either believe them or not. Calling them out as hipsters or whatever is just going to stir up drama.
Closing.
