Average is absolutely not a term meaning most.
If ten people are level 60, and one is level 15, the “average” is 55.9
Most people would be level 60, but the average is 55.9
Do you see how averages work?

Average (adj): of the usual or ordinary standard, level, or quantity.
You seem to be confused. The average person, by definition, would mean most people are similar to that person
Most is not a synonym of average.

yeah cross realm is what I see happening with only the lowest of the low being merged. With cross realm it would be more populated.
Ordinary is. This isn’t a math problem.
Even if we follow your assumption, and allow ‘most’, ‘average’, and now ‘ordinary’ to have similar or even identical meanings:
Most people are not level 60 yet.
if ‘most players’ includes ‘average players’ - then following that, average players are also not level 60 yet.
If ‘ordinary players’ are also ‘average players’, and ‘average players’ are ‘most players’, we still discover that ‘ordinary players’ are not level 60 yet.
We are not grasping at straws here, nor are we pulling baloney made-up statistics out of thin air just to sound accurate about something.
‘Most’ ‘average’ ‘ordinary’ players are not level 60, simply because based on actual population, there are far more players below level 60 than there are at 60.
Therefore;
‘Most’ ‘average’ ‘ordinary’ players are below level 60.
Semantics aside, I believe I have clearly stated my point and rounded off my argument.

I’m sorry but that statement is not correct.
And if by some chance it is, it means that the game is losing people leveling faster than new players starting over which is a big yikes
Ah, damn.
I took the bait.
Good one.

Ah so that’s why they’re sabotaging their own game
One of the entire reasons WoW evolved and LFG and LFD were created. How easily people forget

Another tread about loss of subscribers and people loosing interest in this game…yet every night most servers are at high population and the popular ones are still at full.
Most - players - haven’t - reached - 60 - yet.
In fact it seems like a lot of people get to lvl 30-40 then decide to roll another character. Or level up a bunch of alts with a weeks worth of rested xp.

Have we reached a point where layering can be removed? Clearly no, so phase 2 is also a no.
Always interesting to flip through an op’s previous comments. He’s been predicting the death of the game since last month at launch. Raids aren’t hard enough, layers not released quick enough, and so on. Now, one of the most populated servers around needs to be merged. Okay then, good luck with that.
Technically a Sunday Thread.
OP, perhaps you are black listed and people do not want to group with you.
What does your heart tell you?
Getting endgame group quests done has always been hard. I remember carrying some around for months and months in vanilla. Nobody wants to do anything at level 60 that doesn’t involve a chance of a loot upgrade for himself.
Seems like you were behind the first wave of 60s, but ahead of the main leveling group (people with jobs and families).

Just a guess, but maybe you’re on everyone’s ignore list.

That’s honest. That’s also different in EVERY zone at EVERY level on EVERY realm. So it’s pretty close to “different for every player”.
I’m an altoholic so my highest is level 22 (and my lowest 13, of 7 classes). But even if I only played 1 character, I would not be 60 yet.
Makes sense. LFG is to group for dungeons. Most players don’t group for questing – they solo that. If I need help with a quest (Hogger, the Loch Loman ogres) I use the /1 channel in that zone. That channel talks to players in the right zone, and works pretty well for getting help on quests.
LFG channel is useless. It is too high for me (35+) and too low for you (55-).
Damn what have I been doing then.
