It is indeed ridiculous.
And what I originally was afraid of is coming true. On RPPVP people have a preference for a tag over the other.
The majority is set to moving to Hyxdraxian, but a considerable quantity are moving to Golemagg pvp. And they don’t even really want to go to that soleless server infested with bots, gold sellers, gold buyers, gdkp fueled by RMT etc. 
Thanks Blizzard for “protecting the community”. 
Utterly unbelievable this fiasco.
