Twas a joke. I was drawing a similarity between paying to jump a 3 hour queue and paying to play at all.

They need to solve problems the way Blizzard or a proper professional game developer would solve them, or else nobody is going to give them a drop of their money. People don't pay for service like...
Warmane needs to realise people can and will move to OTHER servers. Why? Because the way they are (not) solving this issue makes the scenario of 'leaving lordaeron' different than you think.
...
Warmane needs to realise people came here to play for free. If they have to pay, back to retail they'll go (or the servers that will pop up after Lordaeron on other servers - making people leave...
Keeps the queues high and DCs high, which seems to be part of their vision for how Lordaeron works. It's a success, if this is what their intention was. Good work.
You expect people to swap to another server without any transfers? Would YOU restart your characters on another server and start completely from scratch?
Didn't think so. Transfers from lordaeron...
2300 in queue on a sunday afternoon. Warmane really doesn't give any cares about anything regarding player experience, do they? Blizzard would've had this solved after 1 week. Shows you the...
Exactly. Do they expect anyone to donate?
Retail is p2w. You can't win if you don't play, and you can't play if you don't pay.
Will transfers from Lordaeron to other servers finally be possible? Some of us want out of the 2000-person...
I wish staff knows that people would donate to the server if the majority of their playtime didn't consist of queues. Splitting lordaeron or allowing transfers is the best option once the other wotlk...
The ingame ping display is a lie on Lordaeron. If you use a stopwatch or different addon to track latency (true latency), you'll see everyone is forced to play at at least 250-300ms with random...
It'd literally be pay to play, and there are other purposes to being a premium member. Thanks for supporting the server though, hope to see you in game.
New expansion is coming out ,and I think a lot of players are leaving retail for a more consistent WoW experience. Which Lordaeron promises, but the gameplay is super sluggish (latency display is...
All of the 10-character multiboxers add a lot of strain to the server too I imagine. I've seen a shaman with 20 characters once, they were making fun shapes and such but when there's a queue and the...
I never did it myself but I know it's a very easy experience (levelling a DK is designed more like an action romp with not much difficulty due to how powerful they want to make you feel, then it...
Perhaps it should require donor status. The multiple sub costs is why it stayed legal in retail, and no such model exists here where maybe it could. I think multiboxers would be okay with it -- their...
Other realms don't have lordaeron's population. Neither do other servers. Zones don't grow with population size, meaning the amount of farmers you get on a 7k server have to fit into the same zones...
I've seen 4 players today who have 5 Shamans following them, with bot-like names like "sheeva" "teeva" "beeva" "leeva", or "foyo" "doyo" "hoyo" "zoyo" etc.
Is there any care about this issue, or...
I've heard in-game that there are going to be some fixes to PVP on Lordaeron. I came here to check and couldn't find much, but there was a recent post by a Mod on this subject and it's looking...
Also, BG queues were much busier back during TBC times compared to how inactive BG queues are on this server - caused by discouragement of queuing. This results in a server experience that feels like...
This is a big issue and I've been waiting for an official message from the staff for a while too. It's shocking how many people talk about this in-game. People regularly talk about Lordaeron being...
Exactly, because when that happens the server prevents you from logging back in for whatever amount of time it takes for the problem to be solved. Nothing the player can do, and it ends up feeling...
Has made BGs a pretty poor experience for me on this server so far. Any hope, will it get better or are we supposed to stay out of instanced content?
Yup this happens always, every MMO that downsizes or upsizes quickly. Opening a new server or splitting them is not a good idea, because one becomes a desert. Always.
I don't mind 15m queues,...
Q:
Is this limited by characters active in the last week or so?
Q:
Is there something wrong with rogues, why so hugely unpopular? This patch benefits warriors and paladins a ton, so it makes...
