they've already said they won't consider merge deathwing/rag until after they get lords core, just incase some of lords population moves back to their home realm once it has the new core. so i wouldn't hold your breath waiting for a merge.

Many of you have said what I was going to say about current core not holding players for both DW/Rag
However, I want to spit my personal opinion.
WE, the players of Deathwing, DO NOT, have a problem with population or playing our server like we have been for the last 4 years. I was originally from Old Lordaeron, and Ive noticed a majority of my fellow Old Lordaeron players have stayed on DW. With that being said, I have to say that WE do not like Ragnaros's community.
I'm sorry but previous the Moltdown, Ragnaros was viewed as the worst Wotlk server with the noobiest players. When transfers were open for Ragnaros players to transfer to Lordaeron we went through a ****-storm of players who didn't have a clue what they were doing. RHC was impossible to complete because there was always that one person from Ragnaros who didnt have a clue what they were doing, didn't understand their class because it took them 2 hours to go from 1-80. I encountered many ppl who didnt even understand the concept of Tanks and Healers. I leveled a toon on Ragnaros because my newbie friend couldn't level on Lordaeron. It was too hard for him. I, an experienced player, never finished a single RHC on Ragnaros and the other players would get excited they got 2 bosses down in The Nexus. Ragnaros's rate used to be x20 and bred a wave of morons who still more than likely exist over there. I do not desire to play with them. If DW and Rag are merged, I will go back to Lordaeron.
Can you show me were they said they would merge the servers? Ive seen multiple times were they have said they have no plans to ever merge DW and Rag, regardless of core, never have i seen them say they would merge after the new core is implemented.
Also OP, its against the rules to suggest a new server of any kind.
Its the flavor it has, its new, its hard, its being released gradually, and its, arguably, the favorite expansion, so its a novelty that everyone wants to have back.
You can not make 2 of the same, since this will be for 1 year or so until the hype calms down, obviously there will be stuff to do since im sure no one will ever do ICC HC with 300% hp increase on bosses, and other harder-than-retail stuff. But the novelty will wear off and there won't be a justification for 2x of the same.
And of course, who the heck would ever be able to afford such a feat anyway...
The people playing on those other servers have their own rights as well no? They like it how it is now for a reason, won't mean that all of them suddenly stay if you release another realm like lord and "force" them into it.
and you pretty much nailed everything I hated about Rag to. Even when an experienced player like myself would try to get into a group for Heroics or even the Normal ICC dungeons (FoS/PoS) I'd just get bombard with replies about my gear score not being over the group leaders request and laughed at because even though I could sit there and explain every encounter, I just wasn't good enough for them. Rag just wasn't for the noob players, but also for the over paranoid players that didn't mind donating and spending VP in CS to buy any item level and still manager to screw up the game for many other players.
My final conclusion is this; I really hate x12 xp servers and wish they'd just go away. If you don't have the time to play an mmo like it should be and to its fullest content, you should probably find a new game to play. IMO Short cuts is one of the things that have been ruining Retail WoW and causing players to get to endgame to fast, burn through content, and have nothing to do for the many months to come other then LFR to Nrml to Heroic to Mythic. Like seriously, Blizzard? You really think players wanted to do 4 levels of the same stupid raid?
Anyways, Lordaeron is a breath of fresh air and i'm having a blast and at least at higher levels i've began to make some real friends and found plenty of helpful people.
:D
Thank you Warmane for truly appreciating what an MMO should be.
LOL
your reasoning is just absurd...people who have jobs and kids should just go away and play another game? please...
what does it matter if there is a higher rated realm? you have lord. go play there. sorry i got a job, house, kid and im busy dont want to spend all that time leveling and what not (because unlike 99% of molten i did all this crap in retail)
causing endgame fast? what? all these servers will be at one point stuck in endgame only content unless they plan to keep releasing a "progressive(aka customized)" server. when they are all stuck at endgame no one cares about anything but the end game for obvious reasons....
funny when people bomb me about gearscore i reply with "lol gearscore" and link achievements. i still get invited. i made my own guild there worked our way from 10naxx to 25H icc and did LoD.
and the servers will be merged soon enough. trust me on that.
How is having an opinion absurd? You're reasoning that my opinion is absurd is absurd. I don't know how you got so butt hurt over some random guy posting an opinion, but you really need to learn to control your emotions better because I can assure you there are always going to be people that don't share the same opinion as you and you storming in here going, "blah blah blah, i'm so emo and don't like people to disagree with, blah blah blah" is actually what's absurd. Yes people have wifes, kids, jobs, etc but they get to play on a free server and they should make it last as much as possible instead of cheating their way to endgame. When I played on Ragnaros (and frostwolf) it was one of the most toxic and vile servers (community wise) that I have ever seen and that right there is what makes x12 servers bad because when you can just zip to endgame in 2 hours there's nothing there to stop you from cheating, there's nothing there to stop you from ninja looting, or treating people like garbage and you are absolutely one of the most vile and toxic people on the forums here and I have no idea how you've managed to dodge a perma ban.
I mean, it's nice to be able to jump right into the action. But there are more reasons for it. Some people just don't like leveling when half of the **** is bugged. And Lord may have a lot more working quests and stuff, but it doesn't have RDF. So that kills it for a lot of people too. The fact that anyone would try to say someone is "wrong" because they play on a higher rated server is just dumb or inconsiderate, or both.
There's nothing wrong with having an opinion. But that doesn't mean that sometimes you shouldn't keep it to yourself.
^^^^^^^^^
We all know very good and well Lordaeron isn't bringing in JACK for donations.
Lol. The amount of salt...But I'll be civil. Also ragnaros was x20 and deathwing was x12. Probably doesn't seem different but trust me it was.
As much as I enjoy the leveling experience and the feeling of completing a challenge (I only ever donated once for one weapon, I suppose I worked for my gear or just poor xD), it doesn't change the fact people have different taste. Three realms are good and if we changed the rates like before I would feel that's the best way to give players a choice on where they would fit in best. It's partly why I don't quite agree with lord because its making players feel forced to choose only one server for the core and not how they want to play. If someone prefer end game they should have a server where they can go quick and have at it. Just like those who want x1 should have a place to progress and take time with. I originally started on old lord and now? I like faster servers as well, they have their advantages and offers a different kind of play style.
Point is there isn't a reason to merge nor make another x1 server unless there is major demand and the other cores are updated so once the dust settles, the population can choose where to go. However it would still be wrong to gimp us of our work (speaking for deathwing since I mainly play there) ,toons, progress, and etc. I don't mind starting fresh but remember, moltdown happened and we had to start fresh already. I didn't even get my old server back and may never get it back. Yet you get to enjoy the new one and get all the attention of staff on new lord. Now I'm feeling salty :p.
Tldr: ramble ramble, have fun, old ragnaros trolls, we are unique snowflakes, deathwing and ragnaros players don't want to lose our work despite how the *****s treated you.
Having RDF also ruins it for some people. I think Warmane took both views into consideration when they launched Lordaeron without RDF. I mean seriously, what is the point of Debugging all those quest if people are just going to sit in capital and que for dungeons?
IMO: IT'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING seeing all these people out questing and interacting with one another. RDF made WoW more job like and shallow thne how it was before. The world seems bigger without RDF and that's a good thing.
If that's how you feel about your opinions, by all means, but I rather find ways of taming my own opinions and not coming across as some kind of jackass, then censoring myself. To me its very important for people to express their opinions so their voices can be heard, people (including myself) need to work on how we say things so people don't wanna ignore our opinions and take us serious.
P.S. Sorry I came across kind of harsh the other day, I guess I just woke up in a bad mood and hadn't realized it.
Nope, but that's completely for WM staff to decide how they wanna make profit off of Lord. Personally I'd pay good money each month to access their server, say maybe $10 USD's? I mean WoW Retail is 15 a month and that's with current content and everything working as it should be. Seems pretty fair and makes the system seem a lot less greedy. Maybe let all players play for free but with limited hours each weeks.
Anyways, that's just some ideas off the top of my head and NOTHING to take serious and no, i don't expect WM to change their marketing plan to suit my needs. I just rather see them get paid for all their hard work and effort that they've been doing lately.
As Always; A big big thank you to the staff and great job so far! 2 levels to go to 80, WOOT!!!

-----> Lordaeron
But no, nobody is allowed to like anything but Lordaeron. Time to decomission Rag&Deathwing and force everyone to play on Lordaeron.
No, it doesn't work that way. I don't give a rat's backside what you do or don't like. Your personal opinion should have no bearing or control what others have access to in terms of realm availability.
Don't like it? Tough ****.
You don't get it. Voicing your opinion != telling people that they are wrong or implying that they aren't entitled to their own opinions. This entire thread, you have been attacking people for having opinions you disagree with. You really should've been over it by now.
Okay, Captain Obvious. You missed the point. You've been sitting here telling us that our higher rated realms are ****, that Lord is the best realm ever, and that Rag&DW may as well not even exist and that all population be merged into Lord. Then you go on to say, here, that how things are handled are up to Warmane. You're contradicting yourself here. First, if Warmane didn't want Rag & DW to exist, and thought that there were no merit to these realms, not only would they have been shut down by now, but they wouldn't have been created in the first place. Second, Rag & DW are paying Lord's ****ing rent, because Lord isn't paying its rent. I'd expect Warmane to soon add new features to attract donating and ease the costs and requirements in the marketplace. Lord's population is going to come forth and ***** and complain because they were playing on the realm because "its not p2w!!!!!", while people playing on Rag & DW are going to sit back and laugh at the kids who want to play on this so-called "perfect" realm and refuse to pay any money to keep it that way.
Don't believe me? Anyone who remembers WotLK Frostwolf knows this is going to happen. Anyone who wasn't around for that -- you'll find out the hard way soon enough.
Take your Lordaeron-worshipping religion to the Lord section, they're gonna need it there soon. Leave Rag & DW players and their realms alone.
???
Because SCREW anyone who plays on those realms, right? And clearly you're not a jackass. Nah, these posts of yours weren't rude at all. Completely necessary, as well. It's pretty clear you have some hostility towards players on those two realms, if not to the realms themselves. We aren't interested in your opinions, especially when you don't play there. Please keep them to yourself. Thanks.
