I’ve posted saying this before (that the PVE to PVP servers are a bad idea because it could kill PVE servers) but of course, the people asking for them absolutely have no idea how to look at the big picture or anything outside what they want.
There are actually people who think that by going from a server with 30k people instead of 10k people suddenly everything will improve for them, and even that their guilds will do so much better, as 3x the people means the server is sunshine and rainbows. They haven’t figured out that there is 3x the competition for groups too so it doesn’t matter unless you play at really odd times or are looking for a really niche thing like staying at 60 and running MC and BWL, otherwise the experience is the same or worse. Note that 10k raiders/arena players is massive and is already way more people than the original TBC servers had.
The biggest servers are absolute cesspools. You are nothing but a number and the only people who really thrive are the con artist and scammer types who can get away with fooling as many people as possible as there is always someone to victimize.
This is how it is now though. At this point, I’m mostly just looking forward to seeing the crying over the queues in pre-patch or with Wrath from these entitled types because unless Blizzard changes something drastic with their code there will be 4-hour queues.
