assuming that the numbers are real, this just show that wotlk playerbase isn't so interested in bg
lordaeron with 2.5k - 5k and you get 5 vs 5 bg in dead times (and this with luck)
yeah, thats 300-500 mop server activity.
2k mop population = bg every 5-10 minutes, this don't apply for lordaeron in peak hours xD
even buggy frostwolf when 1.5k people were standard= bg every 10 minutes
it's even more strange that some icecrown players thanks warmane for crossrealm bg because "improve bg activity".
So you're telling me that the realm with 8k-12k population didn't have enough pvp activity by themselves?
if the point of crossrealm was to improve lordaeron bg activity, why are icecrown players the ones arguing that is a improve for lordaeron?
a lordaeron player says that doesn't enjoy playing so much vs top gear players FROM icecrown, suddenly answers FROM ICECROWN players arguing that cross bg is the eighth wonder of the world.
say things are as they are, you enjoy cross bg, that isn't wrong or something, more activity, people and blah blah blah, but stop justifying or even denying the effect of gear in a mmorpg, is just dumb.
