Why does Frostwolf have the most players in Warmane?

[DragonfireEX4422]

I'm legitimately curious. Ragnaros used to have the most players, but somewhere along the way, that seems to have changed.

Though I do like this because I had only started in Cataclysm and was there for almost all of Pandaria, I'd still like to know why Frostwolf seems to have the most players?

cause its a merge of 2 realms sargeras & frostwolf plus its new content so ppl play it more but if u combine the wotlk population at peak hours it will beat frostwolfs very easily

Many people switched from Cata to MoP right after the moltdown because many thought MoP was more "ready" than it is. Also partly because Sargeras (Cata) was switched post moltdown to MoP so many rolled with it.
