Wrong, wrong and wrong.
First of, youre comparing 2 different expansions, most people are playing TBC because they missed the "golden" era of WoW, the game is different in a lot of ways, some are playing it for nostalgia, others out of curiosity, others because they like the art-style that wow had(dungeons,gears,enemies,ect...).
Also, old 2011-2013 lordaeron had more people and it had all youre agaisnt enabled, so all your arguments are nothing but your own opinion, so please, stop it, realm its dying, theres some lvling activity, yes, but once they figure out hows the lvl 80 world, they end up abandoning.
