I did it like 10 or so years back? It was pretty easy to be completely honest and didn’t require too many resources, at least not if you’re the only one using the server. You just run the server locally and then use the client to connect to that server. That’s basically it.

And no, the game comes with all the quests and everything, you don’t need to really do anything else. The downsides is that you’ll be locked out of a bunch of content like dungeons and raids since those require groups of 5 or more players.

Remember when the Chinese protests in Tianmen square happened the regime was afraid that sending in local troops to deal with the protestors would run the risk on them joining in or refusing to follow orders because they were familiar with people in the crowds. They instead sent troops from other regions that didn’t have the same issues and we all know how that ended.

If Trump ends up sending the NG from a red state where people think California is some dangerous “third world country” as some representative said not long ago there is a chance it would end up the same as Tianmen. I really hope that doesn’t come to pass, people don’t deserve to be massacred for speaking their minds.
