Queue from last week!?!?

Hi all, i wanted to ask how come the queue of Lordaeron became from 600 ( as far as i have seen last mont) to 2000 queue for so short time, like for 1 week?? Not to mention that in no time the population got to 12 000, witch seems to be unlikely for so short time. Did the server redused the cap of players online or something else?

I really think until they can increase the cap higher at a stable rate that making new chars on lord should be closed for now as this que is a joke for the old members that have been here since launch. because having to keep donating for 30 days of que skip isnt really fair on everyone. esp when more than one of you in the house hold play here its double donating just to play a game. i dont mind donating once or twice (which i have done) but its just pay to play at the moment, and if i wanted to keep paying 10e every month to donate i may as well play on retail. Humpf Grumble Blah!

Good luck playing retail ^^ hehe. "May as well play retail" It can't be that painful, retail is a facebook game now. And paying to play retail cost more, so you will be paying more to play a worse game XD

Ha! I would pay for this version of the game, retail is garbage and blizzard is run by a bunch of chimps

If you play this game, you'd know that Nostalrius got shut down - everyone keeps talking about that, including Blizzard, ex-Blizzard employees, streamers and more. There is already a petition signed by +240'000 people aimed for a decision on Blizzard's side for legacy servers. Nostalrius had as many players as Lordaeron and many of them came here to seek refuge.

Also, Ulduar just got released so those who were waiting in full T7.5 can finally start doing something.

Or do you mean something else? I dunno, it seems pretty plain and straightforward to me. In fact, I expected a bigged queue.

OR you can log in at a more reasonable time.
OR you can log the queue and go do something different for, uhm, half an hour? Walk the dog, eat, clean your room, watch some streams...

How would closing new character creation achieve anything? That doesn't even make sense, apart from maybe people getting bored with their mains and leaving the server. Is that what you want? Because that's what happened 2 months ago when the population dropped by 3-4k.

Nobody forces you to donate for a private server and donating doesn't make you entitled to anything. That's why it's called a donation. By all means, if you think otherwise - go back to retail and do your garrison quests and pet battles or whatever the hell retail has today to try to keep its players.
