It actually not based on players numbers. It based on who turns it on. How many turn on at time. We actually never no true players numbers. Only notes who do war mode. Just a heads up.

As well as being regional.
I’m not sure what you wrote was in English, so I’m guessing here- but, you just agreed with me. I stated the “buff” was based off of population (using WM). You said no, it is based off of population turning on warmode.
Again…/facepalm.
Horde are still destroying alliance left and right, that’s why they still have the 30% buff.
Is a buff for the weakest faction, so feel good that we don’t have it.
No I am drunk. It is not based on how many players there are in game. Yes it based on how many players in game turn on war mode. If reading it right. No it not based on total population. if that true alliance should not get it. They have fewer 120 than horde on one hand. On other hand they have more lower levels players than horde. Alliance just do not play high levels. Mainly do twinks I think. Not sure what alliance does really. alliance side confuse me. Hey bg are fun.
PS how do you turn off auto correct. that sob making me mad.
That’s your statement.
You did not specify that it was a Warmode enabled population, faction based population, or a regional based population.
Typed thoughts don’t always get read the same way you think of them.

Correction, its a buff for the faction that doesn’t engage in it as much. It’s not about which faction is “Weaker”, its about participation. So don’t try and spin it into “the weaker faction gets the buff”.
You are enemies with the faction that always wins. You are forever gonna be losers. You are enemies with the audience that always get heard you are never gonna get attention .
If this is what you choose this is who you always will be …SALTY and hateful ![:rofl:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/rofl.png?v=6" ":rofl:")

Yep, just like they’ve had a perma 50% extra honor since the start of Legion…and they cry horde favoritism? Apparently they won’t be satisfied until they get BiS loot for free, too.
Honestly It’s really pathetic.
Well if we cry as much as the alliance we’ll get our way. Alliance has proved that works a plethora of times throughout history.

That wasn’t Alliance favoritism. It was a benefit to get people into doing PvP. Just like the 30% buff is now. This isn’t favoritism, this is the fact that a lot of Alliance players are growing disgusted with PvP and just aren’t engaging in it. So Blizzard is having to sweeten the pot continually.
Instead of looking at WHY alliance players are disgusted with PvP they just throw out bribes. And apparently they think its working because they’re still doing it.

Oh man, this thread is an embarrassment. The OP is crying about PvP all while trying to peg the Alliance as the crying ones. Then we have more Horde coming in here with their false bravado trying to claim everything is unfair, even though they “win all the time due to skill” (lol).
ALL the bonuses need to be removed. Even your 10% bonus. Then we’ll see who really wants to PvP.

I put bets on horde. They the one not getting a 30% buff right now. They the ones who ran off alliance in first place. It was alliance who turned it off. Just a friendly reminder who did what.
op is a typical toxic ‘if you dont play in warmode you aren’t playing the game & you’re a coward’ only to a greater degree, nothing to see but a poor excuse at trolling

Alliance have proven time and time again that if they dont have a handicap when it comes to the Horde they will boycott what ever it is that they dont have a advantage in. Eventually Blizzard gives it to them and the Alliance has learned if they cried hard enough Blizzard will give them what they want. Anyone who disagree’s with them are horde mains who are outright toxic.

While a lot of what you are saying is true, I hope you are at least able to understand the optics of all this. Alliance have been the faction flying the “horde bias” flag for quite a while now, getting vitriolic and irrational in their forum behaviour. Then along comes something that is a bias mechanic, and hey, suddenly that doesn’t count as bias, it’s balance.
Disclaimer - I spent years playing on an Alliance dominated server and I don’t have the same set of assumptions you do necessarily.

Except its not a bias mechanic as you claim. It was done to encourage the side that doesn’t play as much to play.
Just like I’ve actually, rarely, seen a “loot bag” for DPS. Usually you see “loot bags” for tanks because not enough tanks queue up. That’s just how things worth. It’s not a Bias, its an attempt to bring up participation.

Since the system automates the strength of the buff based on the faction numbers, I’m gonna go ahead and say “yeah no”.
Thanks for the thread though, I was just looking for some salt for my chips that I’m eating while leveling my shaman 30% faster than you.
All you’re doing is arguing what its for, not what it is.
I’m not arguing. I’m stating what it was built as. It’s the same thing as loot bags for raids. To fix participation issues. It’s not a “bias mechanic”.
A bias mechanic would be about favoritism. This is just “hey, we don’t have enough people to fill out both sides. Offer up something to get the other side to join in.”
Just like “we don’t have enough tanks, offer up a reward to get more tanks.”
That’s not Bias. That is simply trying to entice people to Participate.
Just like companies that want people to test products often offer to pay them to do so. It’s a means to entice participation.
