Is blizz going to add transfers that you can pay for? Id like to continue level at least in earthshaker then go back to Gehennas and have the name I paid an early sub for back.
The Devs said this during the AMA
Paid Character Transfer
Will PAID transfers also be a thing should a server drop heavily in population and a player wishes to move to find more activity or reconvene with friends on another server.
Quoted from
This was a problem in Vanilla too. Not once did they ever let anyone migrate back, so you might as well forget about it. The best you can hope for is that others will start playing on the server eventually. Or that they will open paid server transfer for Classic.
The best you can do for now is either live with the crappy server, or maybe try playing another character on another server until things improve.
Judgement horde side is dead. There are 5 times as many players on Alliance, they are ok, not as busy as other servers but 7k players isn’t terrible. Less than 2k horde side.
I don’t mind so much since I like to solo grind but it’s worrying thinking about finding groups at 50+.
I really hope they merge Judgement and Dragonfang, since there is no way they will allow transfers away since that is guaranteed to kill the servers even more.
untrue dude Horde side has 5k players
Out of curiosity, where do you get your numbers?
the numbers on wowpop . appspot . com are collected via an addon called CensusPlusClassic
Me and my brothers transferred to judgement too. It is treu this server has no life in it. We both stopped our subscription… Maybe if we all do this they will think about the money they are trowing away by not doing anything to this problem. For people reading this who think about going to judgement don’t do it. Apparently blizzard has given up on this server that much is clear after reading what me, my brother and friends have gotten as a response of blizzard… after talking with them on live-chat.
I’ve just moved over to Dragonfang from Golemagg and also share your concerns. There is no economy because the auction house is empty, making it harder to sell for my mount at 40 because no one will buy. Also I’m currently sitting in an empty Stormwind at half 5 in the evening.
They are going to have to merge the low population realms because it becomes unplayable in both situations. Either 4 hour queues or a server with no one to play with.
We need every single one of these posts in a pin/sticky so people get why no one wants to transfer.
this is exactly what we not need
Never saw this server on medium status… Maybe should be merged with the other always-lol server, the Dragonfang? Isn’t a easy task for blizzard to be done?
Judgement has been medium pop several times in the past week. Though this is in itself rather strange as when it has been the server has only had a 2.5k max pop.
This whole situation is of Blizzards’s own making. They have given no information as to the updated requirements of P2. The queue is of a minor concern to many and thus players even though instructed to do so will not move and choose sit in stalemate and deal with the queue and the overpopulated realm rather than deal with ‘dead realm’ issue.
I feel Blizzard need to change tactics on this whole mess, the overpopulated realms cannot go into P2 without losing at least 10k off of their realms and even then this vastly overcompensates for the purposed single ‘vanilla like’ realm pop which was indicated for P2 launch. Until players know what realm pops are required for P2 to come into play and how exactly Blizzard intend to split servers up come this time players will not move.
My own guild have been talking about this for several days now, we would like to move to Judgement and be part of the solution as we know that queue and P2 is an issue however our guild members need to be able to interact with the higher end content and realm pop on Judgement at the moment cannot support it. We have even spoken to several other guilds to see if we can encourage others but everyone we have spoken to has the ‘dead realm’ fear and Blizzard are at fault by not providing more details to ease this.
One simple option for them would be to reduce realm pop on the highest servers and have high queue times and thus almost force players off the servers however at times I suspect realm pop is even increased during weekends especially to allow players to play, an example being on Mog we have had queue all week of 2+hours peak and tonight, Friday night, queue did not go above 30m.
Activision Blizzard are in no rush here as they have the majority of us all paid up for another couple of weeks yet.
How do you know the server’s capacity? Is there a link to check all server’s capacity?
What’s wrong with that? All the world is for you, all the herbs, ores. I always dreamed to have my own WoW server and be the king of it.
But you can’t find fast other people to group for quests.
Guys, yes you got f*cked and I feel bad for you. But just start over on a medium server or highpop with low queues during primetime. I promise you, 2-3 days of played is nothing in the long run. It sucks starting over but there is no point in playing WoW on that kind of server. WoW is about community. The server you play on makes a HUGE impact on your experience. I can recommend Razorgore and Ashbringer. Highpop, good faction balance and rarely queues over 5 min
Same here, stuck on Judgement dead server… and now I will need to pay to transfer to a more populated realm… such a rip off. There are other 3 servers with such low population according to wowpop appspot Please merge them.
i feel really sorry for you guys…that’s not fair
where are all the people claiming thoses server are good bla bla bla ?
=> now you can tell them sorry (like givememoney on the forum or other guy yelling at me because i wanted to WARN people)
even if thoses people are not 100% responsible, i want to see thoses who yelled at me now…
BUT, i agree with you people, blizzard need to do something like merge low pop server; it’s Blizzard fault too in my opinion
https://wowpop.appspot.com/realms/judgement
Like Nedraw says https://wowpop.appspot.com/ is one of the places that is collecting data on players using https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/censusplusclassic but the information can only be as accurate as the uploads it’s getting.
I upload data daily for my server as it’s a very small amount of effort on my part.
