How is the population in the server??

I can see the statistics and the total accounts, but can anyone let me know how active is the server? Will I able to enjoy as a new player (doing heroic etc). Are guilds still recruiting? Thanks

Plenty of people to do whatever you could be planning to do.

Heroics, bg's and to an extent arenas are all active. Guilds are still recruiting since they're having issues keeping their raiders entertained while we wait for Ulduar.

You shouldnt have any issues with the amount of activity.
