LegacyPlayers is a community driven project to establish a platform where people playing on all kind of expansions of World of Warcraft can share raid logs, PvP logs and armory data. It aims to persist all data of all coming and going private servers, as well as to provide easy access to them.
The project started 2016 as LegacyLogs, which was the website counterpart to show logs collected by the in-game addon DPSMate. This solution gained popularity really fast and proved to not scale very well. At the same time, RealmPlayers, the competing project at this time, came to an end. Dilatazu and me initially decided to merge these two projects, where LegacyPlayers was born on the 21.03.2017. Unfortunately, did Dilatazu leave the team rather early in the development phase. LegacyPlayers is a huge success harboring Vanilla, TBC and WOTLK PvE and PvP logs as well as a stable armory. However, also this architecture proved to not scale well and many bugs were introduced due to it. Now it is at a point were it is hard to maintain and to add new wanted features. This is why LegacyPlayers V3 was born. It is a complete rewrite and remodel of the architecture and aims to scale to thousands of visitors.
The goal is to unite the Legacy-WoW community in this hub and persist all the memories of raids, characters and PvP as well as to provide useful tools.
