Made the mistake of making my first timewalker/MOP Remix character on Moon Guard because someone lied to me and said “TRUST ME BRO! It has cross-realm!!” it was false. There’s no one here, totally dead server…
What’s a live, active Horde server? I see Area 52 up there among others…
Why would anyone want to play on servers with huge population imbalances? I get not wanting to be on one that’s dead, but a balanced population makes for a better world.
Also keep in mind that some of these realms are very high population, and are the most prone to traffic and wait time issues when major new content arrives.
I very much dislike full servers with the constant chat spam and 20 different phases since too many are on. I have toons on Moonguard and Illidan.
I personally, i like this high pop connected realm the most (see below). Plus you have several server name options and can almost always get the name you want on one of them.
BurningBlade
Icecrown
Onyxia
Garona
Lightning’sBlade
These above are great for both horde and alliance.
High pop can be a bit misleading. BurningBlade has at least twice as many online as EmeraldDream and both are listed as High pop.
