Blizz, whatever algorithm you have to calculation server population is not working correctly. High/Full should equal having a queue, not Medium.

Its because they are artificially throttling the server pops because whatever happened earlier likely broke something with the layering. So they are having to HEAVILY control the amount of folks getting into the servers.
Basically the servers are not remotely full, but the queues are acting like they are packed beyond full. If you watch how fast the queues go down… that is the real tell. 1-3 people in every 5-10 seconds max. Even in normal queue situations the queue would move faster than that. They are massively throttling it.

Is this something to help herd players to lower pop servers?
Going to lower pop servers isn’t helping either; they are also full with 10k queues.

I mean, they could be trying to get folks to lower pops, but I think its more likely they simply have something broken, are desperately trying to fix it, and having servers throttled and up with stupid long queues is better then broken and down where you STILL have to wait in a queue and then cant get in once you hit char select.
