what's the highest number you saw while waiting in queue ? mine is around 980, I bet if warmane increases icecrown capacity by 1k, we won't have to wait 95% of the time.

They won't really adjust the limit to reflects your own log in schedule. It's been set for quite some time now.
There's also Outland, Lordaeron, Blackrock and Frostwolf, but everyone wants to play on the crowded one.
In exchange for (maybe) less stability and dissolving the incentive to do the (minimum) donation, which keeps the business running?
Only Icecrown and Lordaeron show up on my server list , are the others available in Europe ?
There's only 1 more WotLK Server called Blackrock. Yes, should be available.Quote:

The queue only shows players currently waiting. Premium members can skip the queue and push more than 12k. Once it's 11999 any player can log in. Once it's at 12000, regular account logs in and waits for someone to log out. A premium account logs in, doesn't wait and now there's currently 12001 players on the server. Another premium account and there's 12002 and so on. Server does handle over 12K, but it's pushing it's limits and you can see that by the lag spikes you get at peak time. There's limits to how many clients can a single server handle, and 12K+ seems quite reasonable to me. So there's some headroom, but premium accounts are accounted for in that number so pushing it further would cause it to either crash very often or be unplayable due to lag.
You could suggest getting new/better servers which costs more money, so having more free players and paying more for servers makes no sense to me.
And raising the cap for the current situation is also nonsense. The players will leave once school kicks back in or they have to go back to work, so then warmane is stuck with more expensive servers and less players than the cap.

Imagine joining a server without reading the rules, then condoning an idea which officially is against the forum rules. It was explained several times, it can't and SHOULDN'T be done, due to the WOTLK official capacity PER SERVER is only 6k, and they have already pushed the envelope to 12k. Asking for more is just reaching out for another batch of candy during Halloween.Quote:
