Heya, I'm a new follower and a Ravenholdt RPer as well! I started in MoP, well after the community had fallen apart. I could tell from looking at the old server forums and guild websites that it used to be something awesome and that feeling kept me engaged with the last few RH guilds still RPing. I spent time in Order of the Forsaken and Twilight Empire specifically. Eventually RH merged with Twisting Nether and it revitalized the RP scene for a while. The server is sadly still barren and overtaken by other servers' populations, but it will always hold a special place in my heart.
Interesting! Hmm, I've only played on Ravenholdt in TBC/Wrath. After that I went on a 3-year break from WoW, and after returning instantly migrated to Argent Dawn. (Gonna expand on that in the final episode) From there I've no knowledge of Ravenholdt's fate. It's so wild to think just how much one single change can completely eradicate entire server's community...
