This was very strange. In original Cata they had their own page just like the Zandalari-dungeons where you could queue for them
Quit in OG cata After clearing firelands , i can say this i did not miss much with Dragon Soul ! highly boring raid to be honest !
im sincerely hoping blizz will crackdown on Gbid/Gdkp scam and ban it outright ! its detrimental to the game and encourages Credit card kids that cant do simple mechanics in raid yet walk around in heroic bis gear… just do what you did with SoD + Anniversary slap the ban on them and make them get lost !
If you wont blizz then the EU will atleast … their new rules and regulations regarding ingame currency purchases via real money will make RMT/Gbid/GDKP illegal so 
Other than that … quite a dull expansion i see why i quit in OG

So let me explain again so you can stop pretending to be that stupid
Your vanilla screenshot comes from Thunderstrike EU (Confirmation with people from “Les coupaings” & “Geto Dacii”) where the realm population is set to 16627 players among the 49931 players on Anniversary in EU
Your cataclysm screenshot comes from Mirage Raceway EU (Confirmation with people from “Club Adrianlacs” & “Sheesh”) where the realm population is set to 6050 players among the 66832 players on Cataclysm in EU
So not only you are blatantly making stuff in your little head, because as far as it goes, there is still more players on Cataclysm than on Anniversary in EU right now, by far
You’re also making some of the most stupid comparaison, by taking a screenshot from Vanilla where the realm you are using covers 33% of the playerbase vs a screenshot from an awful random Cata realm that covers not even 10% of the playerbase
Good luck recovering from that, and good luck on Mirage Raceway aswell

things you can do full time besides raiding:
heroic/protocol dungeons
pvp
leveling alts (not like i do, where all my chars are combat ready and have the same ilvl, there are people who actually enjoy leveling)
collecting transmogs
completing achievements
making gold
people go fishing for hours but your head can’t grasp any activity besides raiding among other things
you are very strong at projecting
Dude, I must ask , again ; Are you slow minded? THE only reason you see more “players” ( there are characters not players - you DO know that right? ) on ironforge.com is because the very big majority from the population, RAID in Cataclysm and that’s the only thing they do ( raid logging, hello? ) while on Anniversary servers, there are HARDLY people who raid.
I don’t even have a lvl 60 char and I assume the majority are in my spot in Anniversary servers and so I DO NOT COUNT ( nor them ) on ironforge.
110k characters who raid in Cataclysm, are MAXIMUM 50k real players and I am being generous here, because Cataclysm servers have a more established raiding scene.
While almost 100k characters in Anniversary means AT LEAST 70k players because far less players are raiding here.
Exemple.
1 Real Player has 2 character who are raiding on Cataclysm. So out of 100k characters who are raiding , there are 50k real players
1 Real Players has 1 character who are raiding on Anniversary. So out of 100k characters who are raiding, there are … 100k real players.
Makes sense? GREAT!
BESIDE. But you still raid. Hello ? That’s the main thing

I’m almost certain i do not? 
never did, never will (during cata)
that’s your main thing, my main thing is battlegrounds, there are people who have all the things i listed as their “main thing”…and this may shock you, there are people who like to role play
Yes, in a minority and it doesn’t change anything.
And what is this ? So you are making me clown but … don’t have the guts to type it?
Karina, relax. Your pathetic expansion still is the worst from them all. Nothing will change that.
And there are people who raid with 3-4-5 chars per week.
Repeat that several times until you understand that.
Off you go , LOL …

when the subject in question is population, an X amount of players doesn’t change anything?
wasn’t i the first who used that argument in the other thread when i tried to explain to you that it’s pointless to try to present raiding characters and /who screenshots as population “facts” ?
