Allow me to explain my situation:
I am on a server which has a (plus minus) 1:4.5 A:H ratio. Mind you, there are plenty of servers that are in the same position as mine (or the other way around, where there's a lot more alliance than horde). The 'new' system is working out fairly well, teams are balanced, TB goes back and forth.
Now the real issue: Due to the low activity on the alliance side, there's hardly any ppl playing at night (I did a /who 85 just now, showed up 31 people). Earlier this evening we were able to take back TB from the horde, which is getting harder and harder to accomplish. However, the last battle, there was only me in Tol Barad. I thought 'oh fun, I get to one versus one some', apparently that wasn't the case. I asked a friend on the horde side to do a /who Tol Barad and he answered that there were 5 players present (ofcourse, exluding Tol barad Peninsula). There is no way for me to defend against 5 players.
I know there will be people saying "well what do you expect, that you'll get some free honor because your side only shows up to the battle with 1 person in it's army?". Yes, I actually do expect that, at least then there's a status quo. We all know how easy it is to defend TB and how hard it is to regain control of it (obviously). Imagine having won Tol Barad for once, at 8pm. And notice your efforts were in vain because the next day it'll be reset anyhow. And then you'll be on the losing side again, until you get lucky and get a horde team that sucks ass.
I'd like to know your opinions on the matter, if you respond please add what kind of server you are on. Horde population > alliance? etc etc.
Thanks.
