Checking WoW Server Status

If you're facing the infamous "Server is down" message, then now is the time to check if the servers are actually down,or if the issue can be fixed from your end.
WoW Retail Server Status
This refers to the current, live version of WoW. To check its status, visit Blizzard's official 'Realm Status' page where you will be provided with a list of all the servers and their current status. A green up arrow implies normal operation while a red down arrow signifies ongoing server issues.

Anyone else having this issue? I've been unable to log in to my demon hunter.

Nope, no problems for me at all. Game has been working perfectly since Thursday.
I appreciate your rosy recounting of events. :)

We are working on fixing this right now. Server team is doing battle with an issue impacting Dalaran which is causing it to crash, reboot, crash. Hoping to fix it soon™.

Is it any wonder that, since I am in theory so excited about WoW's Player Housing, I would fill the gap left by its absence by playing other games where I can decorate things?

Can access character screen, when attempting to log in "World Server is Down"
Cannot change realm, must log out, log back in.

Q u o t e:
Just want to update that now I cannot access any toon on Quel'dorei at all. I try to log in, it spins the spinning beach ball of death (Mac), slowly tries to connect, then says "You have been kicked from Server." This is not a problem on any other server I play on x.x I was afk when this problem started, on a random alt in Org.
Have you tried rebooting your system, Kwanyi?
