this is my main btw.
Perhaps not. And, perhaps itās a reasonable ask! Maybe Blizzard could do even better.
There still remains some unanswered questions about whether people really care or not, and whether they should do that. But, letās assume that the numbers we have available are accurate, and the gut feeling we have that people who say they are quitting due to faction imbalance are actually doing so, and doing so for the reasons they are saying, and that that is somehow evident in the data that Blizzard has.
Should Blizzard rush as fast as they possibly can, and get some untested, possibly working solution out the door, or maybe wait a few more days (2 weeks) to release BGs, and monitor the effects that has?
Or perhaps something else?

Thatās why you are posting on a retail character. Stop trying to give your perspective on a situation that doesnāt even apply to you in any way.
no i post on dekkar because he has my T3. thereās no reason to regrind it again on a classic toon just so peoples man panties donāt get in a twist. you can see from him that heās a pve server. so iām not camping anyone. especially not at level 21. lol
By that token, perhaps itās better to have peopleās perspectives that arenāt so involved.
Mekkai is entitled to have an opinion, and likely just as capable of thinking as any other person posting on this thread.

Itās called a joke, Velara, relax. If youāve read my other posts on the issue, you would know that Iām not parroting any ājust rerollā nonsense.

my thought is that i donāt want people to unsub or be miserable because theyāre camped non-stop. i am on a pve server myself and enjoy it very much. i see alliance in the barrens all the time. even high level alliance. and we /wave at each other and sometimes /dance. if i was on a pvp server theyād kill me until i logged out and stopped playing.

OK thanksā¦ difficult to ascertain tone in writing.
Contrarian positions on this are frustrating. Why should people who have not been exposed to the problem be talking for or against the problem?
He is entitled to have an opinion, it just shouldnāt have any weight because thereās literally no exposure to the problem. To suggest for him to get some perspective before giving a perspective isnāt ātaking away someoneās opinionā get your contrarian garbage outta here.
iām not actually a man. i just like my toons to be studly. :>
Letās stop pretending that ājust rerollā is indeed nonsense. Having the barrier for entry being to start a new character is pretty good way to ensure some sort of stability on a server.
Making any changes right now, including adding transfers (paid or otherwise) will almost certainly lead to destabilizing current populations.

iād like if there were server transfers from pvp to pve for people that want to stop being camped. i am fully in support of that. but it probably wonāt come until phase 6. so if they donāt want to be experiencing that stuff for a long long time the best thing to do is reroll pve.
Get details for this. What precisely is the context here?
Not necessarily. I literally just meandered through The Barrens, Thousand Needles, The Shimmering Flats, and Tanaris (at least to Gadgetzan). I killed a couple Horde, and died once, on one of the highest population, largest disparity Horde favored PVP servers.
And I did this, aloneā¦

This is about faction queues due to faction imbalance, not gameplay in-game due to faction imbalance. Take your āreroll PvEā server junk elsewhere. Faction imbalances exist on PvE servers too and would affect alliance on those servers.
what makes you think you have more of a right to play than a horde character? that seems to be almost entirely entitlement.
If it were based on say, the 100 players on either faction with the highest numbers of honorable kills for that week would never have server queues, that would make sense.
If you wanted to add some ājustice for the minorityā type thing, then you could either do something like, say that top number shifts according to the current balance.
So if your server has a 25:75 Horde-favored ratio then youād have the top say 150 on the Alliance side, and top 50 on the Horde size have these priority queues.
We could name them, āChampion Queuesā and even have Champion Tabards or Banners in-game for these elite champions of their faction!
Actually the argument is that I have the same right.
Right now you have thisā¦
16,000 horde online; 4,000 alliance online
1,000 horde in queue, 1,000 alliance in queue
What I want isā¦
15,000 horde online, 5,000 alliance online
2,000 horde in queue
This whole mess could be easily cleaned up by giving a racial to each alliance that kills all horde within 50 yards. No cooldown, of course.
Itād still be horde lopsided, but at least thereād be a fighting chance.

The forums have given me the clairvoyance to tell who is a part of the majority faction on a PVP server by the content of their reply.
