A short history lesson for the new Turtle fans: Nostalrius was one of the last true passion projects in the private server scene,
ultimately ended by a C&D from Blizzard around 2015. This server was massive and played by everyone. They never took donations,
never had any major drama, and had insane quality for the time. After their shutdown, they gave their core and database to Elysium.
This was a massive deal at the time since everyone was dying to play their beloved Nostalrius again. Elysium was a small vanilla
server running for profit at the time and was run by Shenna (Torta). They went non-profit and agreed to host it. From there on,
it was daily drama and shady actions from Shenna (Torta) and Crogge (Bowser) trying to cash in. A couple of years later, Shenna (Torta)
and Crogge (Bowser) were caught spawning gold and selling it. The entire core and database were taken and spun off to a new project
called Light's Hope, which removed Shenna and Crogge. From then on, it was considered one of the best experiences and ran full
progression with minimal drama until Blizzard announced Classic, at which point they shut down.
