Well im sure that devs are hard at work RIGHT NOW figuring ways to optimize server even more for 12/13k.

Not cool :/...

do people realize how insane a cap of 11k already is on a private server?

it was unheard of a year ago.

And not only for a private server

Just open a PVE server and that would help split the numbers. I'm currently at 1600 que timer with taking 167 minutes to get on.
another would be to outlaw multi's all together.

Could be a problem at first. But a quick fix could help that issue, like lower the Global CD for the creep respawn for quests or npcs, etc. But again, just a thought :)

You can't have it too low for the following reasons.

- It would allow people to farm certain mobs too easily
- It would increase the load on the server even more
- It would make certain quests impossible or far too difficult because mobs would spawn on top of players and kill them. At peak server times this does actually happen for certain quests usually requiring players to corpse hop to get past the super fast spawning mobs.

Warmane has stated before they have no interest in opening PvE servers.

With 11k the server is very populated as it is, I would love to see another x1 exp server just like Lordaeron. Right now there is almost 2k people in qeue for the server and I for one would be happy to start on a fresh server, as I am sure many other new players would enjoy also.

imagine having the resources to support 15-20k people on one server...holly ballz of jethus cwithe.

wow had 40k support for one server, and most popluar servers in 2010 were always +30k ppl.
its not that impossible

Postion in que: 1550

Awesome! I may have a wait but there's a bunch of people to play with when I get there.

This. A second server would be great, especially for the people that are hesitating to start
on Lordaeron because they missed the first few months and next week Ulduar is "already"
opening.

No. Whatever you do, don't divide the community anymore.

The only reason people play in lorda is because of the other population..

You see what happened to Deathwing and Ragnaros..

Even the queue is better than having two half empty servers.

I'd rather suffer 3k queues every day than join into a slowly dying server.. The massive population is what makes lordaeon good and worth all the time you spend on it.

Btw, it took 48 minutes for me to get in.

- yeah I get it with the farming too easy and make the AH go "Turrets mode" and whatnot
- yeah I get that also but I'm sure Warmane devs could come with an idea how to lower that
- wasn't aware of the peak hours thing. Thought it was all x1, including the spawn rate

But again at the end, it was just a thought, nothing more.

Even if they would release a new "Lord" server, a pop of ~2-3k is still enough.
You are just spoiled from current Lord numbers and fear that if it goes below 9k
the server will die, lawl.

3k+ is enough for every private server.
