Yeah, for sure there will be some people who welcome the influx of population to their communities.
Those who enjoy smaller servers are a relatively small minority, and unfortunately will often get overlooked, as such. But they certainly do exist.

They have FREE transfers open. What more do you want? Do you want them to FORCE players to move? Theyâre not going to do that. If you want to sit in queue, then they will leave you in queue.
I like how scammer Birta says itâs a fix when the queues have doubled since the free transfer option released. A fix would -start- at disabling paid transfer to full servers.

Facts, Pipehitter.
Deal with it or donât.
What more do I want? So FREE transfers to dead servers is the solution to this problem? Well I hate to break it to you, but that didnât solve anything, AS THERE IS STILL AN ISSUE!
Instead of asking me, you should be asking Blizzard. Itâs not my duty or my responsibility to find a solution to this problem. Blizzard is the multimillionaire dollar company. When there is an issue with Blizzards servers, its BLIZZARDS responsibility to find a solution. FREE transfers to dead servers does not solve anything. Blizzard needs to do something else besides FREE character transfers.
My recommendation would be to split servers. Have two of the same servers, each holding 50k. Thatâs my solution! An actual solution! One that actually works!
As Gordan Ramsay would say. âMy gran could do better! And sheâs dead!â

There are no âdeadâ servers, and the issue would go away if more people took the transfers. I have nothing to ask Blizzard right now because they already opened transfers. More realm choices wouldnât be bad, but they picked the lowest pop realms, which are the ones that would benefit most from transfers. Thatâs logical. It also avoids creating a new queue on the destination.
Okay, lets see if that solves the issue. Iâll bet you a thousand dollars it does not. Bet?
Yes. Yes it is.
You see the server youâre on is vastly over populated. The server you now have a free transfer to is under populated. If a handful of guilds move from the high to low population server neither server will have queues, and neither server will be dead.
Itâs 100% a solution to the problem. However the player base (which created this original problem) makes themselves a new problem by refusing to take the solution, claiming itâs not a solution.
Even when blizzard wins, blizzard loses.

It is not a solution, its a scapegoat of a solution. Itâs the weakest thing Blizzard can do. It just shows me theyâre lazy and afraid to actually do something that will fix this issue. AS THERE IS STILL AN ISSUE! Their effort into fixing this issue is a failure. So I guess theyâll just give up?
You are correct itâs up to blizzardâs to manage their product and change to the markets influences.

They should take all players who started on whitemane during the pandemic and move them to a mid pop server. Yes its full, yes it sucks, and being logged out for being afk for 10 min is not a solution. A bio break gets people kicked and puts them in a 4 hour que, disrupting raid teams, and groups.
The realm has been classified as full for months on end⌠no one should have started playing here on whitemane when it was full⌠there are many other servers that offer pvp and such things. If you are new to the full servers, take the transfer and let those communities recover and survive.
A lot of players knew what servers were going to have long queues before classic launched.
and now they want to blame Blizzard

Youâre not betting on the mechanic. Youâre betting on the players not using it. Thatâs not logical. The mechanic WOULD fix the issue if players used it. As I said before, Blizzard is not going to force you to move. They did their part by opening free transfers.
You can throw a man a rope, but you canât force him to take it. If heâd rather complain then drown, thatâs too bad.
Itâs logical but stupid to think players are going to take so much personal risk. Blizzardâs reputation for taking care of the realm population is less then zero.

They did fix it. Itâs called retail. You should go play there.
"Itâs logical but stupid to think players are going to take so much personal risk. "
-Thereâs practically no risk if youâre transferring with your whole guild.
âBlizzardâs reputation for taking care of the realm population is less then zero.â
-Youâre typing this while they have active free transfers right now. Think about that for a moment.
No one is blaming Blizzard you simpleton. And why are we talking about the past? Letâs look to the future and find a way to solve this issue.
So what if people signed up to a popular server. Does that mean we just give up and accept this issue? Not do anything about it? You people make no sense.
THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH SERVERS. FREE CHARACTER TRANSFER TO DEAD SERVERS DOES NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE.
Donât blame the player base. Itâs up to BLIZZARD to find a solution to this issue. Itâs not up to the player base, they DO NOT have the power to fix this.
Free Character Transfer solves nothing, try again Blizzard.

No I was here way before this bs with the guild. Get it fixed
First point risk is involved it a guild or two moves thatâs not going to be enough to keep a server alive. Second point you can boil and eat shoe leather to live cool fact I know if the options are not appealing then people wonât take them.
This is how it was in Vanilla, warts and all. Classic can be great, and it can be frustrating, and unfortunately, server queues are one of the frustrating parts. But you need to accept it for what it is.
Blizzard did fix server queues, and AV imbalance, and class balance, and most of the other things that people complain aboutâŚin retail. So just go play there if you cant take the good and the bad. I donât mean this as an insult, retail is a much better overall gaming experience, and the hate on retail is completely unwarranted. You have the sub for both versions, go make a toon and try it out, and come back if you dont like it. At least you get to play instead of sit in queue.
