    You either trade short term convenience, for long term pain endgame and server dying or you take short term pain with queues for a bit in order to gain long term population security

    I thought this was apropos.
    Meanwhile, back on Azeroth, the overwhelming majority of the orcs languished in internment camps. One Orc had a dream. A dream to reunite the disparate souls trapped under the lock and key of the Alliance. So he raided the internment camps, freeing those orcs that he could, and reached out to a downtrodden tribe of trolls to aid him in rebuilding a Horde where orcs could live free of the humans who defeated them so long ago. That orc's name was... Rend.

    I've been on Atiesh day one and it's been great. The highest queues I've had to sit through were 300 and 1200 (right after server crash). Since then, after the expanded servers I haven't had to sit in queue at all. Though I usually log in right as I get home from work so I can get ahead of some of the rush. The server is great too, populated as hell but not as ridiculous as a streamer server.

    My server is far from dead, it has an active and thriving community.
    Here is something to believe in!

    This.

    All but 2-3 servers are either Full with 1-3k queue at primetime or near Full. That means the server population has (number of layers) times 2 people on it that an original Vanilla server had at "full" label. Even if 80% of the playerbase would left, all the servers would have more people on them than a high pop vanilla realm had (not to mention the current humongous queue realms still would have 8-10k queues, if we take a server without layers on, which Blizz' long time plan).


    Edit: Just seen the main page, Blizz is thinking about the same, hence they are already ready to provide free transfers from certain realms.

    Log-in queues are part of the authentic classic experience!

    At this point anyone who is refusing to see this argument is probably just here to shit on Classic players regardless, so by all means, fill your boots.
    A bit touchy, it's okay. I can almost understand losing your ability to understand whats a attack and whats simply a joke.
    #NOCHANGES right? That means crappy starts...

    Jokes aside. Calm down my dude, It was a joke. I've enjoyed the time I put into classic, it might not be my cup of tea but i'm not gonna slam you for enjoying it more.

    This deserves more attention, and genuinely made me smile.

    ... Re-reading it I can see why you maybe interpreted my post like this, but really I was just trying to help you understand what I was saying because your reply didn't make much sense to me. The last part was rhetorical, or at least aimed in general at the "It's all your fault" bleaters, rather than you personally.

    I thought they were addressing that? No change since release.

    I'm on Thalnos.
    That's classic though.
    Also, they don't want to add too many realms since they'll be dead in 2 months.

    It's not all about streamers mate, majority of us don't give two shits about them. But we have friends, you know, friends... they are already on set realms.

    /facepalm

    They have been addressing it.

    They added servers when they saw the massive number of name reservations. Then they added more servers. Then they increased the amount of layering. Then they created even more servers. Now they are offering free transfers.

    Seriously people, Blizz has some big issues they need to resolve, but this is not one of them.
