Is this really happening?

When you start calculating the amount of players in each leveling location, BGs, raids, etc, and remember that there are 2 factions, the numbers actually start to make sense. 12,000 sound ALOT if you think all of them are in the same faction as you, level 80, well geared, and looking for the sepcific raid you are trying to make.

Also the RDF queue mechanic is kinda broken, so if you think you are too much time in queue, try re-queuing. I have no idea why it works, but it works. You can be in queue for like 30 minutes as dps, with no tank or healer in your assembled group, re-queue and get instant-pop, and it happens way too often to be a coincidence.

750 in que now with a 23 minutes estimated wait time. Other day it was 1300 in que.

The 10 Euro issue is not based on how much money people have. Private servers have had a bad history of closing. Some people also have experienced a closure, AFTER spending hundreds of dollars. This type of behavior is very common, and those who have lived long enough, know the value of their money, and just tossing it aside for something MOST think should be free, is a challenging proposition to them.

If people are willing to waste such money on private servers, it's their fault. They knew the consequences.

That the thing, people who donate to the server don't consider it as "wasting money".
I'm sure there are some people who "donate" actually for the premium privileges or for boosting themselves with items/characters, but a lot of the donors actually donate to the server because they like the server and understand that running a server cost money.
