Free Character Moves Available for Firemaw

Yes there is a limit, look near the top for my post.

People are definitely transfering a few whole guilds came last night.

Org is getting more and more like firemaw at night.

Where do you get these numbers from?
According to Ironforge Firemaw has a population of 12000k, i guess these are the level 60’s. You want to migrate twice the Firemaw population out of our server?

I wonder about that aswell, maybe we overlook something, but I can’t imagine the Ironforge website being off that much, it seems off a little for some realms, but isn’t higher sample size usually in favor of it being MORE accurate, rather than LESS?

Again maybe we are missing something though…

Thanks for ruining bloodfang with free transfer, really appreciate the 2x increase of black lotus prices over night. Add dynamic spawnrates or lock servercap at vanilla values, else you can aswell stop refere to it as “no changes”.

Seems pretty clear no guilds are using the free character move to join Judgement or Dragonfang. Any chance you could take this opportunity to also address the issues these servers are facing?

We need more active players or it will be very hard to open AQ on time. If that happens, all active guilds will likely be forced to migrate to the med/full servers. Putting more strain on already overpopulated servers.

Please merge or alternatively open for free transfers from one of these servers to the other. We’d still have a small and close knit community, but the server would be a more viable choice for new players.

It would be great if Blizzard could adress the two small servers, either by merging them with eachother or merge both of the low pop servers with different medium servers. It would also help that people keep migrating to full/high pop servers which is leading to Firemaw like queues.

There are people who prefer a Vanilla like pop and not everything should be merged to megaservers, but there is a point where low is too low.

im moving still LOL

The queue right now is alot smaller than it used to be in previous weeks, not sure if this is the reason tho

Why in gods name was Bloodfang a choice here - Blizzard are idiots

Better late than never, Blizzard. If players are slow to transfer, I suggest lowering the cap on Firemaw to encourage players to migrate quicker.

Better make sure to address the destination servers if they get flooded with too many players.

queue to get in is way less than usual right now, did ppl move or did they do something else?

People moved.

People have definitely moved can see it on bloodfang already, see it chat aswell guild recruitment from ex firemaw guilds and others looking for guilds.

Org is getting packed

Paid transfers to the biggest NA servers have been disabled. Why not to Firemaw also?

thats all very nice, but i hope its not to get people to actually move with their mains when they hear big guilds moving alts there, because when ever the queue on firemaw is over, these alts will not be played alot with anymore, and those that moved there will hate it again and quit. same old same old, like in the past.

@Burton: I wrote what I did, because I am “painfully” aware of how difficult it is to get people to move (I was an active part of the Connected Realms program on the retail side years ago) and especially getting someone to move their main. But as I noted in my remark to Domgordo, Firemaw is extremely severely overcrowded. As is, even if 8 000 people move, it will still have some queue spikes. In fact, if my absolute worst case estimate is correct, Firemaw needs 24 000 people to transfer or alt out.

@Fracksz: Ironforge, to my knowledge only represents raidloggers… and on a typical classic realm only about 33% to 40% of active characters are even 60s… Which means that a raider force of 12 000+ is about 36 000 to 30 000 total… or using another method… 6 000 in, almost 4 000 in queue and typical realm has prime time spike of roughly 25% of maximum… which gives us a total number approaching 40 000…

Even if we were to assume that Firemaw had 60% of 60s and they all were active raiders… we would still end up with around 20 000 people… Which, given certain preferences would mean at least about 8 000 people would need to migrate, as I noted in my reply to Burton earlier.
