I literally just wrote this five minutes ago to another new “get rid of layering” post.
There’s a very good post that was recently written with links to videos and very good examples on exploiting layering. Perhaps post in that one?
Someone linked one of swifty’s video showing his experience in the feedback thread and that was just the same thing as I was experiencing. I ended up just giving up.
Maybe state what areas you were playing in because difference racial areas have different population densities. The night elf area earlier today once you got out of the starting area had very miminal population, but the human area which my night elf moved to had too many people every time I played.
I wonder just how big their layers are, i.e the entire game ? There are lots of night elfs playing in the human areas, maybe the layering system can’t adjust for that sort of migration.
Ya, that definitely makes sense. I wasn’t aware they were doing testing in that way yesterday. Thank you for relating that information.
Both were Realm 3. Early session was in Mulgore (Red Cloud Mesa, and later Mulgore-proper, with a terminus in Camp T). For the later session I deleted the toon and rolled up a dwarf (Coldridge Valley, stopped when I got to Kharanos). The dwarven toon saw a lot more itinerant players presumably due to the dwarves and gnomes sharing the noobie yard.
It’s called a “period”, you colonials ![:slight_smile:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=6" ":slight_smile:")

Only in one highly rebellious colony who decided they needed to mangle the language in order to pretend they weren’t English.

I left retail for much the same reasons as thread starter. Not dungeon design, not world design, but the lack of community, lack of servers, sharding, phasing, what have you.

I’m an author. I’m ALWAYS looking to critique someone’s grammar. Especially in a text-based environment, where what you write and how you write it directly translates to how easy it is for readers to comprehend what you are writing.
I mean, who knows? You could have actually had a point to make, or a sound argument, but when your post looks like a tween mashed it into their cellphone, making some nonsensical rant on facebook that either has something to do with a game, how Becky is a total sl*t for looking at Tommy that way, or instructions on how to summon the Great Old Ones, but you can’t tell one way or the other because you’re faced with a massive block of text?
It devalues any argument you might have had, the same as when you see someone bringing out a tin foil hat to keep the CIA from reading their mind and reporting them to the lizard-people who are ruling the world through the Illuminati and the Deep State.
Oh, i’m sorry. You lost me in that novel you called a first paragraph. Try again.
Yes, that is why I used the wonder that is ‘editing’.
I agree. Finding a creative way to deal with shuttling the population rather than just statically trying to hit a number is going to make
the game better in every possible way. It’s going to make the world feel alive, fun, dangerous-you’ll be totally immersed
Layering is absolutely detrimental to the experience.

Oh, you mean like I edited the original post? Also, you might look up the meaning of a run on sentence. It might help you in your line of work.
I do know the definition of a run-on sentence. However, I also know what compound sentences, complex sentences, and complex compound sentences are.
Do you? It really takes away from what you’re writing…”Especially in a text-based environment, where what you write and how you write it directly translates to how EASY it is for readers to COMPREHEND what you are writing.”
Ah, but that is where you are wrong, good sir. For, if you were to take a moment to recognize the truth behind the meaning, you would find that a sentence provided multiple parts as one cohesive whole, building upon each other like the columns of a temple to one of the ancient gods of knowledge, can become something greater than the sum of its parts, and truly express in that one sentence more than could be said in a page or more of more pedestrian verse.
But, alas, it would seem that not all in this forum of text and knowledge knows the truth of the language it is written in. Or, perhaps, you might be one with a different native tongue? In which case, please forgive, for I know that translating between one’s mother tongue and those of foreign lands can be quite taxing, and often causes things to be lost in the translation.
No, I speak English natively. I understood everything you wrote, even though you didn’t write it in a way that was easily understood to most . That was sarcasm. The fact is this isn’t a literary journal, and you’re not writing to your professor. You don’t have to try to impress people by using high fallutin words and sentences that are harder to follow than a gnat across the sky.
Learn to change your writing style when communicating with different demographics, and you’re bound to reach more people in a positive way. No hard feelings though! Much love!
P.s. I double spaced that paragraph for you because I know it triggers you if it isn’t.
