== Retail Servers == At release, the following 6 servers were available: Darktide, Frostfell, Harvestgain, Leafcull, Morningthaw, and Thistledown. Solclaim was the first new server to open on the 6th of June 2000. Wintersebb was the second new server to open on the 24th of January 2001. Verdantine is the latest server to open on the 9th of June 2004. Darktide was a [[Player Killer]] only server. All other servers defaulted characters to [[Non Player Killer]], but also allowed characters to change to [[Player Killer]], and, later, [[Player Killer Lite]]. As part of the publishing agreement with Microsoft, all of the retail servers (excluding Verdantine) were originally hosted by Microsoft and accessible via the [[Microsoft Zone Archive|Microsoft Gaming Zone]]. [[Turbine]] bought back all [http://www.gamespot.com/news/6085702.html franchise rights] from Microsoft in 2003 and consequently took responsibility for server hosting. The servers remained at a facility in Washington State until 2008 when all server hardware was [http://forums.ac.turbine.com/showthread.php?t=40220 replaced and relocated] to a facility in Massachusetts near Turbine headquarters. Due to various quality of service issues that caused extended downtime the [http://forums.ac.turbine.com/showthread.php?t=42014 servers were moved to a new facility] on March 30th, 2009.
