Who runs this site
What this site does
It shows whether each World of Warcraft: Forever ruleset is online in the US, EU, Korea and Taiwan. The data comes from Blizzard's public realm-status service, checked once a minute. Every check is stored, which is where our outage history and uptime figures come from.
Why we built it
When a game launches, "is it down?" gets a flood of answers that are opinions or out of date. We wanted one page that only shows what Blizzard's own status service reports, with the time of the last check, and that admits when it doesn't know.
How it is run and corrected
The checker is a small program on Cloudflare, maintained by William, that asks Blizzard's realm-status service for each Forever region every minute and stores the answer. If Blizzard changes its service and our checks start failing, the site shows "Unknown" rather than old data until the checker is fixed. Reported mistakes are checked against our log and fixed on the page.
Data sources
Live status comes from Blizzard's realm-status service, the same data as the official status page. Facts about Forever, such as the launch date and rulesets, link to Blizzard's own announcements.
