   Just google warcraft private server.
   Typically, you have to roll back your version to whatever the private server is using. Then edit a file to tell the client to point at the private servers instead of the commercial ones. And, most important of all, start the game directly by clicking on the WoW executable instead of the launcher program (it resets the server list is why). Most private servers maintain a website that explains this. It’s really not hard. Most private servers are free and many have interesting perks. For example, one I know of, you start out at level 80 and have 10,000 gold. Special vendors are stocked with nice level 70 gear and the loot tables are set to 500x normal while honor points are 100x normal. Basically, new people spend some time gearing up and then raid with none of the hassle of leveling up a toon.
   For the person who said Blizz is cracking down….there are HUNDREDS of private servers with a huge, well developed community. Obviously Blizz is doing nothing of the sort.

   Blizzard is cracking down and closing all Private Servers. They are a violation of the EULA and ToS agreements.
   People found running them can be banned from WoW indefinitely, and this has been happening for the past few months.
   That being said I’m not certain what happens to people that are merely using them and not running them, so beware. If you do choose to use a private server, the other suggestions would be a good place to start.

   All you need to do is pick one of these http://www.xtremetop100.com/world-of-war… register on the site and follow the steps.. Once registered you basically edit a notepad file and put in the code that they tell you.. Their server address… They all explain how to do it though.. Enjoy EDIT; some of them allow you to level up incredibly fast or you can start as a level 80 but if you want the normal wow experience look for servers that have blizzlike in the description.. That means they are ‘like’ the blizzard servers.. ie normal drops normal exp and so on

   Just check out WOWscape’s website, all you do is make a username and password, you can figure it out and have it up and running “if WoW is already installed” in like 15 minutes.
