Is Pagle In Trouble?

lets face it all servers are in danger always. especially with wrath fresh servers comming. and many of us wanting to get off servers that are flooded with nothing but GDKP and waaaaaay over inflated economy prices

Yes, people absolutely are. People are scared because a super server is slightly less of a super server. It’s a non-issue.

Benediction players will have queues regardless. If you didn’t want queues, you should not have chosen to play on the most populated server.

Lmao, this is the biggest copium. My old alliance server had 7k pop and it disappeared middle of night. This is a huge issue and youre making it worse by acting like nothing is happening when their biggest guilds are already on Beny.

Is this legit? I literally just rolled a new alt on Pagle the other day, gotta admit I’m sweating a bit after suddenly stumbling upon and reading this FOMO/fear thread :sweat_smile:

If pagle is truly bleeding out, maybe it’s not too late to reroll on whatever the new “popular” server is? My toon has about 5 hours 34 minutes of /played time on it, so it’s still early/possible to cut my losses…

I don’t PvP in Classic though, so if someone would recommend me the “good” Alliance PvE servers that would be nice

…or is this thread just the usual forum exaggerations/fear-mongering/making the situation sound worse than it actually is ingame?

7k people disappeared in the middle of the night? What realm was this exactly?

It really isn’t. As I’ve said before, the fullest TBC realms had 2k-3k people max.

Whitemane, go check its pop back in 2021 before the rumors started flying and how fast it dropped.

We are literally comparing apples to apples here though.

Why are you so stuck on this? None of servers that have 0 players on them at this moment dropped 3/4 of their population overnight.

Whitemane has a population of 13k. What is the issue exactly?

Not we – that’s what you’re doing.

Because it’s not true.

Let’s play a game. as this thread progresses, populate the below tabs. I’ll go first.

Denial: Pagle has thousands upon thousands of players… it’s fine.

Ok, im done with you. Youre clearly trolling.

Figures. I’m sorry that the recorded data proved you to be incorrect.

Geez, I legit had no idea the bleeding was that bad :laughing:

If it’s true that it’ll empty out come Wrath/it’s a sinking ship, then I’ll go delete my new toon right away and re-roll on Benediction. That seems to be the consensus

Good thing I’m catching this news/intel on a Friday afternoon “just in time” for the weekend. Rip the 5 hours of /played I’ve put into my toon, ah well, re-rolling on a healthy/growing server is for the best I suppose :slightly_smiling_face:

Its fun to watch the 7 stages of denial. Kek

But it’s not evidence of anything so I’m not sure why you’re trying to use that as your argument that Pagle will be fine.

As stated, none of the servers that are now dead and will be deleted on August 9th lost thousands of players overnight.

It could be that people are taking breaks from raiding, so logs are showing fewer people logging raids.

Of course, there could also be a static player population and if they aren’t raiding on Pagle, they are raiding elsewhere.

I’m sure that’s a part of it but from what I’ve heard the top guilds have already transferred off with other guilds following right behind them and there’s open discussions of others doing the same.

Their discord is a dictatorship, if you even mention guilds who have left you get banned/muted.

"After some discussion amongst the Guild Leads, we’ll be interpreting doom posting about Pagle being dead or other servers being better under rule 9 with heavy moderation.

It’s disruptive and in bad faith to players who are looking to leave dying servers and seeing Pagle as a destination, especially if you’re known to have already left and are arbitrarily trying to damage a community you have exited."

It’s quite possible. Poking around IronForge Pro, at a glance, it doesn’t appear that there is some unusual drop-off in raid logs on Pagle, but it does seem to be pretty consistent with other servers, i.e. there is a slightly smaller number of raid logs week-over-week, the last 2 weeks of logs up there (which is already a couple of weeks old).

Anyway, they did open up Normal → PVP server transfers, so maybe some people are leaving Pagle. I’m sure that some will leave out of fear from reading threads like this one; whether that’s significant enough to cause an exodus, I suppose we’ll see.

Don’t argue with old bloomy. He likes to concern troll people who aren’t aware of his game. Just block

Again, if only Blizzard let LFD in no one would be going anywhere.
People want more people in the pool to play with and without LFD folks
wanna squeeze in with the rest of the gang or get left behind especially
if you’re alting or newer. We definitely need all you can get imho.

If you aren’t in the biggest server, you’re doing yourself a diservice
unless don’t mind playing with 5 people forever.
That’s fine, but don’t cry to us when that’s all you got.
Like sink or swim folks lol.
