Of the games you mention specifically here's the most recent skinny:
WoW: A few of us did check it out again when they relaunched the vanilla server. The PvP ended up going very quickly back to battlegrounds which really killed it again for many of us that did go back to try it again.
7 Days to Die: A few of us did have a 'dedicated' server up for a bit running off Slamz's extra machine (performance was surprisingly good all things considered). That ran its course when we couldn't make it hard enough; it got to a point where there was no point to it unless we started creating artificial rules on what we were going to allow ourselves to do/not do. Some of the patch they discussed might fix some of it but we've been doing other things since then and haven't been back to check it out. Crice might be able to give a better update as I think he's the only one currently dabbling in it.
Tabletop Simulator: A few of us have been playing in here of late in such games as Kings Dilemma, Gloomhaven, Game of Thrones, Terraforming Mars, Food Chain Magnate, etc. We tested out some Star Trek Ascendencay and managed to find the gamebreaking rules in our first playthrough -- tried a second time with some alternate rules and hit another gamebreaking situation even faster the 2nd go around. We just started a Here I Stand 6 player game last night.
Best advice, as always, pop into TeamSpeak and you'll find the whoever is around in whichever of the rooms.
Mostly of late you'll find the TableTop crew in one area and the World of Warships folks in another.

Too many games to fit in signature....
