The North American Auchindoun server came online with the Burning Crusade on January 16, 2007 at 12:01 AM EST.[1] It is a PvP server in the EST timezone. The server population ratio of Alliance to Horde is very unbalanced at 80, but about 1:1.5 overall. The vast majority of Horde being comprised of blood elves, which account for more than half the entire server. Because of its low population, Auchindoun is free of server queues. Battleground queues for Horde, however, are another story and can be very long.
Black Temple cleared by Reckless Ambition 12/04/07, making it the 2nd most progressed in PvE (Retaliation Battlegroup)
Auchindoun is also home of the "Outlandish Podcast" and its guild. This podcast is nearing a year old with new content being released consistently on a weekly basis. Definitely check it out for news, commentary, wacky commercials for WoW addons and parodies of songs with an Outlandish twist.
The troll hunter Kripparrian [1] of the guild <Synergos> was the first player to reach Level 80 approximately 49 hours after the release of the WotLK expansion on November 13, 2008.

PvP Server that is PvP Free
Unfortunately, due to the Alliance to Horde ratio, PvP on the server is held up by long delays for BG queue's, and world PvP is almost nonexistent.
Note: The preceding sentence appears to be written from a Horde point of view. Alliance on this server still often enjoy fast queues if they queue as a group, and world PvP (read: ganking) has always been a fact of life. Most Horde will attack any Alliance they see out of sheer boredom, because due to the severely low number of active Alliance, it may be hours or even days before they see another one. Horde almost always control all world PvP objectives by default with the exception of the Terokkar towers. This is due to the towers being held for a set amount of time after capture by default.
