With blizzard ignoring us on Earthfury alliance it sad to say the future is 100% dead for most of us playing here with less than 300 alliance players (down over 100 from LAST WEEK) they will lose 300 subscriptions at least this is inexcusable
to add insult to injury we are only a destination realm WHO WOULD COME TO HERE WHEN ITS 93% HORDE AS AN ALLIANCE

You guys with these posts are crazy.
Blizzard has historically only ever merged a handful of servers literally in the last 15 years of World of Warcraft.
Did you expect them to do anything this time?
Blizzard is already on record saying that faction and server balance is a player made issue.
There is no real solution because at the end of the day we all want to play on mega servers and we don’t care about faction balance either

you cant raid is there is no one else on the server
Better hope blizz offers free xfer for earthfury too
we got left out btw there is only 1 other person in sw ah with me atm
Blizzard has already given you the solution to your problem.
Maybe use it?
WE DID NOT GET INCLUDED IN THE XFERS how clear do i have to be

I wasn’t referring to that as your solution I was referring to the $25 xfer you can do at anytime.

unless you pay for me i cannot do that (working on selling tcg pets for tokens to do it though)
Sounds like you’re stuck then.
Free xfers never work, all they do is ruin servers.
we lost at least 20 guilds in one week from PAID xfers first of october

You mean to tell me that people only like playing on servers where they’re dominant and they have a massive population?
That’s a revelation

Yes, it’s gotten worse for sure, and the raiding pop/arena is lower than 300 now. No matter what it shows. It’s been a slow bleeding process. This has happened with other servers before and will happen again, Bigglesworth happened after us for example.
I transferred one of my allies off Earthfury after considering it for months to the only server I wanted to go to (which was absolutely NOT Bene), and still have one ally on EF but I just plan to really just PVP when I play it. That’s mostly what you can do on Earthfury at this point, although if you can make some friends that truly plan to stay with how it is maybe you can do a little more.
I’ll say what I’ve said to similar threads in that anyone who doesn’t want to pay to transfer should just quit if they are on the fence or reroll if they want to keep playing.
SoM on a PVP server has been fun though, it’s shown me what I’ve been missing. TBCC I find largely boring esp with how servers currently are.

here is the history on earthfury you will find something that you wont expect
in early P2 (classic)they allowed free uncapped xfers to earthfury back then we were medium pop and nearly faction balanced it was really fun and enjoyable but the uncapped xfers allowed a lot of horde to xfer and skewed the balance to horde dominated heavily and from there people either quit or xfered off from EF so the original unbalance WAS FROM BLIZZARD THEMSELVES and now they neglect our server and make my playing experience terrible and make it impossible to raid

The free xfers from classic have made the servers what they are.
Once a server starts to tip into the 55/45 range the 45 faction starts to leave.
This has been like this for 15 years, you can’t limit paid xfers because then you’re making a potential scenario that makes it so people can’t play with their friends potentially.
Whitemane is classic was the highest pop and most balances it was 53/47 horde going into the end of phase 6, then TBC launched and Benediction horde started to do into that 55/45 scenario so they fled to a horde server and it was Whitemane, we are now 70/30 from 53/47.
This is predictable behavior is my point, it’s exactly how retail played out and it’s exactly how it was back then.
Hence sharding and war mode in retail.

I disagree but the fact of the matter is i am forced to pay at the end of the day either real money or spent retail gold for bnet account balance for blizzards own incompetence…
I tried I really tried to reroll. After getting to 25 on our rerolls. My friends who I never thought would pay to transfer did. So I sent my priest to Bene.
My rogue, warrior and mage will only ever be for bgs.
