I believe we are actually looking at offering players a way to transfer from high population realms to low population realms to ease the problems on these realms.
So for those of you on Blackhand, would you move somewhere else or have things stabilized sufficiently? And if you created somewhere else (for example, because Blackhand was such a PITA in the "early days"), would you come to Blackhand if given the chance?
Hmm... The latter option is highly unlikely since they want to get people off high population servers, not on... so let me change the question: If you're on Blackhand, would you want to switch (as a group, obviously)? If you're not on Blackhand (and if they let you move even if your not on a "high population realm") would you join your GWJ compatriots should they make the switch?
I recognize that this may be putting the cart before the horse but if it happens and if it's a limited time offer (like I think it was in EQ when they did it), it may be good to know in advance what we'd like to do.
I''m not attached to anything about Blackhand other than my characters and GWJ Horde. So if we moved en masse that would be fine with me. On the other hand, I''m perfectly content to stay put.
I like being able to sell items at the AH on a high pop server. I worry that there would be fewer buyers on a low pop server. I''ve had no problems with Blackhand since the initial launch issues.

I would move to blackhand if I could, and I would take a couple horde friends with me.

But I would feel better about the move if it was to a server with a better reputation.

Yea but prices would be within limits to the population too.... 5 gold on Blackhand would probably be more like 1 1/2 on a low pop server...

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us
I''d be all for a move to a lower population server, providing we could do it en masse.

Yep, I''m up for a move if the whole guild can move. Blackhand certainly hasn''t been as bad lately, but we still occassional queues and particularly the lag in Ironforge has been terrible lately.
I hear the tactical gamer server is quite empty because of you sheep. Switch over to them. Ignore the change of look of the game. Thats just a skin.
I know a few of us are on Shadowsong and it has been very good so far.
no particular interest, no particular talent
Move to Alleria!
I''d love to group with some GWJ Horde guys.
Aint nothing new about the world order..it's been playing since the day they put George Washington on a quarter
Delivering Truth while the 10% deliver lies.
I''d be happy to move anywhere the guild would like to go although I would prefer it be in the east coast.
Last night reaffirmed that less is better. Four of us were trying to complete a quest (suitable for lvl 15''s) at Redridge and there were lvl 30 players repeatedly base raping the troggs! It was pretty freaking annoying.
This might also give us the opportunity to get all of the GWJ guild on the same server. That my friends would simply be awesome. One of the things that I''m most dissappointed with is that I rarely get to play with other GWJ''ers at my level.

I won''t move unless the whole guild could be transplanted and we had a majority vote to do so. I''m fine on Blackhand and rarely have any ""camping"" issues these days.

I would move if it were everyone going, else I''ll just deal with the queues and the lagtasticness of Blackhand.
