I thought we got rid of this stuff, someone in chat was buying a inv to layer 1, and I asked if there were layers and chat said yes 2 right now.
Can we be rid of layers please; I thought these were gone from Era pre requested last year and that was the situation until recently.
If what chat said is true, then this is just more bleed over from SoD.
PLEASE FIX if this is true.
The complaining never ends, holy moly.
Yeah I will complain about changes to a game that needed none.
Gross, layers suck. 
To the other poster who is talking about the complaning never-ending, 90% of your posts are crying about the MoS reversal, so I hope you realize youâre very much a part of that.
To give some perspective to layers, I played on a server with about 40 active people and with 3 of us on in stormwind we were all in a separate layer. They can get really really fudged up with Era.
They never got rid of layers. Era just hasnât had a high enough population to have more than 1 since just before SoD released. Maybe it was even before Era. But definitely not in a while.
What you saw was probably someone who thought there were two layers because Nova World Buffs was telling them there was, but there actually werenât. Iâve seen Nova World Buffs do this before. Pretty sure there is only 1 layer on every Classic Era cluster.
Contrary my friend, blizzard said they actually turned them off last June when we had no joke 5X the population.
I will find the post.
Oh. Well thatâs news to me. In any case someone was probably mistaken about there being layers. It was most likely a Nova World Buffs bug.
I remember being very vocal about needing layers ââdealt withââ due to the aforementioned issue. Though I only remember blizzard saying they were incorrectly creating layers and were going to fix that issue? Donât remember them being turned off
was last june, trying to find the post.
This one here?
BOOM! THANK YOU!
Ok. That doesnât say they got rid of layers though. That just says they fixed a bug with extra layers being created.
They 100% eliminated layers on non HC, this was a fact for a long time.
I know what youâre talking about and that could be it.
I understand that layers are needed at launches but in general I hate them, they are the #1 thing I hate about WoW Classic, I think theyâve caused WAY more harm than good. Iâll complain about them until the end of time.
Blizzard originally managed layers by having them on the servers at the start and then taking them off, only to put one layer, to two, back with covid on some servers, which was taken away a few months later and posted about when it was removed. That was respectful. Now they just spin them up whenever they feel like and act like itâs completely fine.
Ok. Thatâs not what that blue post says. If the population doesnât require more than 1 layer then it would be as if there arenât any. And I believe thatâs the case. Semantics I guess so whatever.
There is a certain amount of ambiguity that never got clarified. Or maybe vagueness? There was clarification requested whether it meant servers had layers, and the bugged layers were collapsed, or if servers were now only 1 layer. I donât remember it being answered, either. Though Mootwo might
Yeah idk. Hard to say what 2019 Classic would have been like without them. On one hand you had all the exploits on the other hand you would have either had too many realms or realms that were too populated.
No, there was another confirmation later when someone said âWTH there are layers on Eraâ and a blue posted âNo there are notâ.
This was last Fall I think.
Ok. Iâll take your word for it I guess.
