really?

Yup! Someone quoted something from this thread, and I quoted them, then got the, “Respond here” or “Respond there” popup, and apparently chose the wrong one!

That’s a very interesting interpretation of what you’ve quoted. Those posts are obviously outdated.

It’s rather stating that a full realm in 2006 would be considered a low population realm by our current metrics. If we contrast that with ironforge.pro for example, we can see that the highest population realms have more than 10,000 weekly logs for unique raiding…
