Like layer the entire server and artificially balance those layers and then force migrate all accounts on those layers to a new server or something -not like day 2 or 3 people had made strong connections. Don’t know if that’s actually feasible though.
Just add 10+ layers lol.
Like we had 6 hour ques on whitemane in like late phase 3 or 4, then they readded layering to Whitemane Herod and i think Faerlina.
Got rid of our ques.
From 6 hours to nothing. By just adding 1 layer.
Thank you for your wisdom Thes Cumlord.

Merge Heartseeker and Skeram!
Will the server be name Skeseeker or Heartram?
Xfer to a PvE server if that’s how you really feel
While this sounds like a good idea in theory and I’d generally support it, it’ll cause a massive issue with TBC launch and each phase release. People that quit throughout classic are going to come back for TBC. With the boost, there will also be a ton of people jumping in for the first time. I have plenty of friends that didn’t play Classic, but spammed arenas back in the day and are solely coming back for that.
Merging two medium population servers is going net long queues, tons of layers, etc. You also have to remember that you’re cramming 2 continents into 5 zones. With world buffs gone and arenas filling down time, people will likely spent at least a little more time in the game, keeping average population numbers up.
While world PVP is great, having a 6-10 hour queue and as many layers is not.
I just wanna play my game, dudes =(
Bumpin this because this would be huge for our server <3
Blizz, if you are even starting to consider this- watch the youtube vid ‘End of the Line Surviving Naxx on a 98% Horde server’.
It’s a vid showing that, even a year after Skeram ‘died’ and was reduced to no Alliance, there was a single Alliance guild which roughed it out and got Naxx done on Skeram.
Despite the Horde’s efforts. It proves beyond any doubt that the majority of the Horde do not want a merger, that even in the final months of the game they did all they could to drive the last 2% of the Alliance to quit because they truly want a 100% Horde server, they stalked and used Horde spies to harass Alliance, they followed them and mass ganked at all opportunities.
The goal of the Skeram Horde is to make a 100% Horde server, and it’s been proven again and again, and they failed. Ultimately, this is the community, the server that the players on Skeram wanted and worked hard to make- and as someone on Stalagg, our Horde are no different, even as I work my way up 2/3 of the Horde I come across will follow me halfway across a zone or call in a dozen friends to come camp the low level Alliance.
Do not take from these players what they want, what they worked for, what they deserve- NEVER merge HS and Skeram/Stalagg, it’s not what we want.
No it doesn’t.
Watch the video, Skeram is firmly against having Alliance on it, they tried to the very end to reduce the population to 0. Blizz should not interfere and ruin what Skeram, Stalagg and HS players spent two years working so hard to create.
I’m on Stalagg and Skeram Alliance, I’m one of the majority of players that don’t want to be forced to play with HS dodgers. You can want what you want- but Blizz needs to realize the truth, that we don’t want a merger.
How exactly did Heartseeker players actively work toward creating a faction imbalance? Most of the people I interact with sat they want to have a more balanced server. Even if the Horde dominated servers are a bunch of sweaty nerds is it not worth a merger for the longevity of our servers and keeping to the functionality of PVP servers? While I love Heartseeker, I did pick a PVP server over PVE for a reason and I know many others feel the same way. Throughout this thread I’ve seen you say Skeram doesn’t “deserve” to merge with HS but I think you’ve taken this way too personally after having been ganked while leveling based on what I’ve read from you. At any rate, a more balanced server would negate that negative experience at least moderately. In the future I wish there were some kind of server balancing feature that prevented realms from becoming highly imbalanced such as some form of lock but I think that may be hard to implement without upsetting people or feel like they’re being shut out in some way.
Then work towards it two years ago when you all were happily ganking the other faction into oblivion- you were warned that your behaviour would cause this, it did- there’s no take backs.
If you didn’t want this server, you shouldn’t have chased the horde off it. Blizz shouldn’t interfere with community decisions- and as said, right up past Naxx launch, with only 2% of Skeram being Alliance, there’s video proof that Skeram Horde were still trying to drive that last 2% off.
That’s what they wanted, Blizz shouldn’t interfere with what the community wants.
You’re being selfish- you may want a balanced server, but that’s not what the majority of your server wants and worked hard to get. You don’t get to speak for everyone.
“You’re being selfish- you may want a balanced server, but that’s not what the majority of your server wants and worked hard to get. You don’t get to speak for everyone.”
How am I being selfish? You are the the one claiming to know the opinions on the majority of players, you’re trying to speak for everyone lol
Skeram is everything ugly about this game
Yes. It is filled with a bunch of people who dislike actually playing the game, and would rather someone “boost” them through all of the levels for gold. A majority of the raids on the server are GDKP where people buy illegal gold from china to pay for pixels.
yup pretty much, if I could go back in time and stop playing about 3 months into BWL I would. What I’ve seen I cannot unsee.
The fact that Skeram is almost 100% horde doesn’t prove “the majority of the horde do not want a merger”. Nor does the existence of a few horde PvP’ers, who engage the few alliance left, prove anything. In fact, if the horde are that eager to PvP, it means they want more alliance to PvP against(hence a merger).
This entire thread is about people trying to merge skeram/HS- that’s the people speaking for everyone on the server.
But you guys don’t, you’re a tiny minority that can’t accept that the rest of the server worked hard to get HS/Skeram/Stalagg to where they are today.
I’m going to say that the majority deserves their server to be this way, over the tiny minority that wants unhealthy mergers that only encourage bad behaviour.
