3 people in Org right now - WTF?!?!

Seriously. What in the actual &#$% blizzard?

What are your plans for all the dead servers you created?

My server was a golden ratio 50/50 max population server going into P3.

Your poor excuse of management brought countless alliance transfers into my server just before BWL. Queues skyrocketed.

You added free Horde transfers off the server to help fix queues but again due to your lack of oversight 99.9% of the horde left en masse before you pulled the plug.

There’s literally 3 people in Orgrimmar right now and there’s usually less then a dozen 60’s on my server during peak weekend hours and they’re all Chinese bots.

It’s been like this for going on 7 months now. No sever merger. No free transfers. Nothing. Not a peep. You’re literally holding me hostage for $20 a character because of your mistakes. Something I had absolutely no control over. It’s unbelievable.

My entire classic experience has been completely ruined by your lack of management. Hands down worst customer experience I’ve ever had with a company.

These ‘dead servers’ will become the ‘Classic Forever’ servers / transfer destinations when TBC is officially a Coming Soon™ thing.

everyone knew from the get-go that classic was going to eventually die out
Naxx being out now = no new content, no reason to keep playing

classic andys will say farming naxx is fun, but for most, its actually boring

Not even close to being the problem here.

My sever has been dead for 7+ months.

This isn’t about the player base not playing. This is about Blizzards mismanaged server transfers.

They allowed thousands of alliance tranfsers in over night send our queue 4-5 hours long right before BWL.

Because of their lack of oversight they let this continue for weeks.

They attempted to fix the issue by offering free server transfers. But all that did was allow 99.9% of the horde to transfer off.

Now what’s the solution? To tell me tough luck give them $20 a character? DISRESPECTFUL.

I moved to my server because it was a medium pop server. But recently it was downgraded to low pop

which is why server merges should happen sooner or later

I dont think this was accidental. Transfers are the only supplemental income they have in classic. The writing was on the wall when cross-realm battlegrounds were announced. They fully know the delicacies with the vanilla honor system.
And not surprisingly, transfers were made available the same day battlegrounds debuted.

If you are still enjoying the game and wish to continue playing, bite the bullet and pay for the transfer. Classic is a miserable experience as a solo game.

what server? seems like the direct opposite of my server Skeram. There’s a billion horde but as far as alliance go the entire alliance server is my guild which is how we make it work. It’s kinda unique. Cuz even thou we have one of the lowest alliance pop servers we still raid weekly and are clearing Naxx. And if you want to pvp horde, you have them where ever you go.

Sounds like you’re not having fun anymore. What’s the next game you’re going to play?

Reroll or pay. Or quit. Or play retail?

I was just wondering to myself…If someone stormed up to you, stuck their finger in your face, and said this exact thing to you…would you be even the tiniest bit motivated to do anything about it or even communicate with them further on it?

Yep, and no changes inc. Transfer or keep crying about it, blizzard doesn’t care.

What a stupid post, the game has just started now that naxx is out. Take your salty self back to retail.

3 people in Org is not indicative of a dead server, but rather a seriously imbalanced faction ratio, that blizzard didn’t lift a finger to prevent, and in fact perpetuated by incompetency and horrible decisions.

If I were in charge of a company, you bet it would. Part of a good business model is listening to your customers. It’s better they come to you angry than not say anything at all. It shows they WANT to keep enjoying your product. It shows they care. Silence is a sign of apathy.

Shouldn’t have to say this.

I suppose that’s correct except you clearly don’t think those are the types of people you’re trying to communicate with. You’re talking to people who you believe are apathetic to your problems. Assuming that’s correct you’ve voiced your frustration in the least likely way to enact change. Just some food for thought.

See, here’s the thing. They did not want to even do the project, and despite it’s success they still do not want to do more than the bare minimum to keep the hamsters fed. The dislike for the project by the company is palatable.

Imagine as a company having so much money rolling in, that you genuinely hope a profitable ROI fails.

On the topic I feel for you OP but you’ve made threads about this before right? At that time it was suggested you pay for the transfer for one character, you reroll which is free or you wait for the (unannounced) TBC.

This has 0% to do with the Incendius situation. If you read what he said you would know that.

I’m on the server where most of these transfers went and my server is doing fine. Yes there has been a bit of a population drop and that will continue. This is normal when all the content is out. It happens every time until a new expansion drops.

It’s like you read the title and got all excited that you would sound smart but instead it’s the opposite.
