TLDR and the path forward

The next set of changes we have on deck are:

• With a hotfix tomorrow we will no longer be dynamically retiring layers. This means that late at night or early in the morning there will be more layers than are needed and the world may feel more empty.
• With a hotfix tonight we are increasing the number of kills that are needed for each layer that exists to move the overall realm percentage up.

This. They stopped closing layers due to issues with Ashenvale.

So now if peak hours need 10 layers, there will still be 10 layers at 4 am instead of dynamically reducing to current population.
