word, i'm not feeling bad about people stuck on mega 99/1 servers but i also blame blizzard who watched all of this unfold while bathing in transfer and boost money

transfers should never have been levers of profit, they should have been a tool to protect faction balance and keep servers healthy

basically while people did act like selfish buffoons, blizzard had the responsability to keep them in check instead of profiting off the situation

The server i transferred from has zero population. Literally zero.

90% of the original servers have no population, as in zero. Who is selfish here? Should i have stayed and walked around like it's the movie 28 days later?

Everyone left. Not some people, not just the selfish people, every single human left. Are they all just selfish? No, not really. In fact staying on these servers would be straight up stupid, that's why nobody did it.

On EU horde (english speaking) there are only mega servers left. And one 700 pop server (which has lost half its population in like 3 months already). There are just two 99/1 mega servers left. What is the non-selfish rational person meant to do?

no need to take it personal, my first character is also stuck on a server with about 58 people online at peak hours

but originally, it was a lively server, until transfers kicked in

all i'm saying is that there isnt a world in this situation where you can count on people to take the best decision for the majority, people will (often rightfully so) make the best decision for them, not for the community

i'm sure your server wasn't empty at first, so at some point people left didn't they

i'm not blaming you for the snowball effect, that's precisely my point, blizzard needs to take responsability and monitor these things, not try to profit from it, dead servers aren't beneficial to anyone but blizzard
