Just a little suggestion for this. I think you should make something like more space for players to enter Icecrown realm or boost Lordaeron realm like Icecrown/Frostwolf. It would be better. Anyways thanks on this great game!

People who play on Lordaeron play there because they enjoy these rates. Changing that would result in gaining like 3k players at peak times, but loosing 5k+.Quote:

Did warmane think about making 1 more server with boosted rates ? Thanks
Well we had 2 realms already and it wasnt fun at all, especially for those that play PVP since queue was generally really long for BG's and Arenas etc.
As previously stated, Icecrown is already pushed to its limits when it comes to population cap, plus this HUGE playerbase is due to the spring vacation. Once kids start going to school, realm population will go down and I think we might not even see queues. Maybe at its best we will see 200-300 queues.
the only thing they could do would be kind of bad... but cause client crash upon idle-logout or something that not only logs you off of game but also off of char selection screen
that would massively reduce queues because as many said, they click 'connect' and go to school/work and come back, select char and go in game, taking up a slot on realm all the time while being 'afk' in char selection
We used to have Deathwing and Ragnaros, but while split each had only 3,5k people. With new core + combining of realms a lot of people came back getting Icecrown to 12k+queue. Splitting might get it back to DW+Rag situation. If you ask me, the way it is now is way better.Quote:

with the upcoming rate nerfs and gold nuking, it's possible that we might even get a merge between icecrown and lordaeron.
so the suggestion for higher rates on lordaeron would seem highly unlikely
they're not going to merge a 1x hardcore server with a 7x non hardcore server. you can forget about that.Quote:
