Benediction overtaken by alliance - horde don't transfer here (megathread)

[Knoland-azuresong]

This is kinda awesome!

[Thalo-hellscream]

I’m so happy right now to have moves over to Benediction

The game is playable… I can always find a group for anything I want… and I can get into raid on time and not a hour later due to multi raids ganking.

[Lloydshanks-thalnos]

He’s lying! Listen to me! I definitely do not have any alliance characters on that server… and I would never lie to total strangers from the safety of my computer. THE TRUTH is, the server is actually 70% horde. They…uhh, I mean, WE - need more horde!

[Ethotirl-tichondrius]

Heartseeker is dead, but Cauchy isnt welcome on Bene. All this dude does is cry on the forums about premade BGs lmao.

[Cauchy-heartseeker]

Oh, I already have toons over there. The name was taken, however.

Sucker.

[Ethotirl-tichondrius]

Good luck joining any guilds with those gray, and green parses xD

[Cauchy-heartseeker]

I don’t raid, dude. Go troll some sweaties if you think parses matter to me.

[Rhindle-thrall]

So how much extra did you pay to transfer how many characters to another server?

[Chris-kurinnaxx]

maybe they’ll do something now that its a horde problem too

not that i care, i gave up and moved to benediction on alliance. three transfers.

[Cauchy-heartseeker]

Yeah, I eas just on. SW and Shat are empty.

[Kumasama-westfall]

@Wolfarren-heartseeker

While heartseeker might be alliance dominated we’ve also lost about 400-600 players to transfers

@Nekogirl-blaumeux

Heartseeker only has 2k alliance players

@Grittz-heartseeker

Heartseeker is a dieing realm, we are bleeding 100 people a week at the moment. Unless hundreds of people transfer at once you will just locking your transferred character to in a dieing realm. HIGH SUGGEST DO NOT GO TO HEARTSEEKER.

@Redshadowz-heartseeker

Heartseeker has been slowly dying for the last two years.

Sesame Street: One of These Things

[Thráin-firetree]

faerlina is gone too but the opposite way, 1600 horde in the past week

[Samkha-grobbulus]

What caused this? I have some lowbie ally parked on bene since p5 of vanilla bc I wanted to have my alliance there specifically due to how balanced it was. What happened?

[Manuredps-whitemane]

I mean this isn’t new,this is literally how it always turns out.

Look at retail, this is exactly why they made sharding and war mode.

The world is a meme at this point, just like how it was in retail and original tbc.

It’s much much better to play on a server with a healthy population for your faction. Pretty much the whole player base wants that.

[Amazulu-benediction]

To start with: “Oh Benediction looks pretty balanced! We should transfer there so that things are pretty equal and it’ll be fun to have a back and forth with a faction the same size.”

Then it was: “We’re having trouble getting into Gruul because a single group of horde is at the summoning stone and I’m too timid to even try to use it. Benediction is like 60% Alliance, 40% Horde, we should move there so we don’t have that problem anymore.”

Then: “Benediction’s like 70% Alliance, we’d dominate there and wouldn’t ever have to worry about getting ganked again! We can take out all of our frustrations from our current situation on the horde population of Benediction and live out our revenge fantasies!”

Now it’s: “Well there’s only one Alliance dominated US PvP server. Mine is 51% Horde which makes the game literally unplayable. That stinking Grobbulus is an RP server so they’re all gonna be greyparsers, we can’t go there! We should all just transfer to Benediction.”

[Maerr-benediction]

I played on a 35/65 A:H ratio server for the entirety of classic before my guild decided to transfer to Benediction a couple months into TBC. While it has been nice not having to corpse walk to dungeons and being able to find groups easily, its really dull leveling alts with no Horde around. Kinda miss that sense of danger out in the world.

[Tuskadero-rattlegore]

Horde killed a few servers when Classic vanilla launched and have pretty much made most pvp servers pve.

Unless you force balance you’re going to get groups of people constantly trying to 1 up each other and get the advantage, even though I was told nobody does that.

[Callippus-benediction]

Update: 2021-10-28

Benediction Alliance dominance reaches all high at 75.8% against 24.2% horde.

There is now more than 3 alliances for every horde in Benediction.

Alliance population: 15177 (75.8%)
Previous: 13469 - up 12,68%

Horde:
4837 (24.2%)
Previously: 5294 down 8,63%

Alliance population keep increasing as you can see while horde population is down 22,99% since its peak with 6281 players.

@Mcg-benediction-835737

Threads like this will ruin my home realm.

Please stop.

Giving attention to my server isn’t the answer.

Horde please come here. I love you.

@Mcg-benediction-835737

No… NO… NOOOOOOOO!!!

Make it stop. Make them stop. Please please.

The destruction of what is supposed to be what brings us together, for the pure joy, pain as it hungers in their eyes.

@Dyspnea-benediction

I’m bene horde and we still win halaa and spirit towers regularly lol

3500 is just a number that doesn’t mean a whole lot if most of them don’t pvp

@Sthis-shandris

Several people on the forums and on Reddit have said that Benediction is fine, both on Horde and Alliance side.

@Mcg-benediction-835737

Benediction is a wonderful server. The ironforge pro website doesn’t have the right balance for the server at all.

There are tons of horde, and well skilled pvp and pve horde alike.

This is a great place to come to if you’re a horde player.

Don’t believe these lies you read here in this thread, these people want to see the game die. They’re evil people wanting nothing but a laugh.

Horde; come one, come all. To Benediction.

@Outoftables-bleeding-hollow

Reported for trolling. Threads like these is what kills servers. Why don’t you inspire the horde to be better players to give other players incentive to join them. Bene being the biggest server should be enough incentive for other horde to join, but instead, they see posts like this and run.

@Protec-benediction

No one takes you seriously. You’re a troll, and a bad one at that. All you do is post about bene hord population imbalance. Get a life.

@Xavus-herod

But this is 6k horde

@Xavus-herod

You’re trying to reason with an orc without shoulderpads. Never trust an orc without shoulderpads.

@Anyafoxx-benediction

Come on over to Benediction! Good server and good people here.

@Mcg-benediction-835737

Today went really great for us on Horde side Benediction today.

We got at least one layer to our selves, and had no issues getting into the new raids.

Also owned the new questing zones and elemental plateau.

This server is great as a Horde player. Don’t really understand what these random people are complaining about, it’s like they don’t even play on this server.

@Mcg-benediction-835737

This proves you as a player never were here on Benediction.

None of what you’ve typed has any real value. It’s influenced no one.

Look at all those people above. Trying to fool people into moving to Benediction.

Where are you now? Come outside. Let’s talk the real deal. Benediction horde is bleeding and alliance growing.

Down 22,99%!!!
