9awar is a Chinese online forum and directory focused on World of Warcraft private servers. Its main community section publishes listings and announcements for newly launched and established servers, helping players compare different versions and play styles. Posts feature options such as level 60, 70, 80, and 85 environments, as well as versions identified as 3.35 and other releases. Advertised server styles include close-to-official, modified, solo-play, task-focused, long-term, and free-to-play experiences; individual operators provide the details of their own offerings.

The site also provides resources for players, including links or access to private-server downloads, Warcraft databases, talent simulators, and a macro command library. Database and simulator resources are organized around several game versions. Users can browse recent, popular, and featured discussions, register for an account, and post in the forum. Customer-service QQ contacts are displayed for inquiries. With a large, active board and frequent server announcements, 9awar functions as a meeting place for players seeking community information and alternative World of Warcraft gaming experiences.
