World of Warcraft private servers are slowly dwindling in numbers as Blizzard continues to pressure them with cease-and-desist letters. Stormforge is the latest case and will shut down on May 14, with new account creation already disabled.
This was confirmed by Stormforge operators last night in a post on the server's website, which claimed that Blizzard sent them a cease-and-desist letter, prompting a discussion and the eventual decision to shut the whole thing down. "We have agreed to cease all operations, development, and distribution of content related to World of Warcraft," Stormforge operators said, adding that the private server will be going offline on May 14 but is to remain playable up to that point.
