What is the real realms population ?

Hello,

It is just a question out of curiosity. The showed max population on the stats is 12 000, but as with VIP even if the cap is at 12k you can connect, there is probably much more player as the VIP is quite cheap and lifetime.
How many online players do you think there is during peaks on Icecrown/lordaeron ?

i'd guess 13-14k. during peak. maybe more.

My guess is somewhere around 16.000 players. Last time I've checked, Server was capped at around 1pm Servertime. The peak on the other hand is easily 6 hours later. And that was before the corona outbreak.

max i saw was 16k too. but you can never trust the numbers a 100%.
