Hey there. Since I'm new here, I'd like to show myself and help those who come here after me a little. If you have the 3.1.0 patch and want to downgrade to 3.0.9 to play here, follow this guide!

I found this on another website and all credits for this guide go to the true creators of this guide. Due to the fact that posting a link there will be advertising they're server. I did edit this guide slightly, to again, avoid advertisment. Credits to Shoupz, though.
Late Addendum: If you have a Mac you will have to make a clean reinstallation.

Quote:1. Go to your world of warcraft folder, usually C:/program files/world of warcraft/
2. Find the /data folder
3. Go into /enus/engb folder
4. Find and remove 'patch-enus.mpq'/'patch-engb.mpq'
5. Open up repair.exe in your main world of warcraft directory
6. Uncheck all check boxes and click the 'check files only' button
7. You have to let the repair run all the way to the end
8. You should be now at version 3.0.0
You have two options here - I recommend option 9b and 10b:
9a. You can use the world of warcraft launcher (launcher.exe in your main /world of warcraft/ folder), or
9b. Download the patches manually from from a website such as Patch mirrors - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft.
10a. Launcher option. Open up the launcher and click play. Then type in any garbage login info, and it will start patching you up. Keep doing this until you have patched to 3.0.9.
10b. Download the patch(es) you want (make sure you have the right language version), and stick them into your world of warcraft folder and run the patches.
11. Download the backup your original Realmlist and download the realmlist found on this page.
12. Use wow.exe from now on to play the game. (Launcher.exe resets realmlist to retail).
Late Addendum: If you have a Mac you will have to make a clean reinstallation.
