that has a game design solution.
Stop parroting this like it’s an excuse for a problem Blizzard knew about and has the responsibility to handle.

Has that solution worked in Retail? Moonguard is still pretty alliance favored.
Yea, cause I guess there is only one way to fix something and if that fails you just give up.
Well i mean you did say you where canceling your sub… Sadly, most servers have this problem It’s still better then getting Blizzard involved.
It’s Blizzards creation…they are already involved.
Aye, but not in forcing people to do what they don’t want to do. I.E mange faction balance.
Yes, that’s a strawman you’re constructing.
I fail to see what Blizzard can or should do.
Good thing you’re not the one that has to solve it then
Nor are you. And that’s probably a good thing.
Yea, hence my original post
No it’s not! A strawman would be saying “Listen here Sonnyboy… Or uh? Elf My great great great great great great great Grandpappy didn’t take a boat half way across the world to see a flag RED WHITE AND BLUE with 13 stars on it and go” Well, i moved here to escape kissing the ring, but what the heck. The empire Imbalance is a world made problem!" Nay! He said this! “LIFE LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS!”
And with that, WE as a people ALL OF US can find solutions if we try… That Fane, is a strawman. U.S.A
Some private servers implemented faction specific queues and the result was balanced pvp servers. If Blizzard really cared about faction balance they would have done the same thing from the beginning.

So because all the alliance transferred, we have to suffer? nty, i didn’t hold a gun to the gnomes head and make them hit the transfer button.
What makes someone else suffering matter less than yours?
I agree but would go even further and say that it’s mostly a blizzard made problem. Yes, individual players made their choices, but blizzard created the system in which the choices exist. They could have implemented any of a dozen different incentive structures to encourage balance.
But, people also wanted #nochanges so I guess blizzard thought (incorrectly) that appeasing that particular incoherent minority was more important than having decent servers.
Oh well, glad I went PvE

It is a blizzard created problem for making the horde the primary faction in lore for over a decade and giving the horde so very much better racial abilities.
Because faction queues would literally be blizzard saying “you didn’t do anything wrong, but we’re going to make you wait anyway”
Give the lower pop side priority when there is a queue sure, but don’t force queues.
Actually it wouldn’t, literally.
So you’re implying that the people currently suffering did something wrong?
