You post from a low level dont talk about skill 
Another Mirage W
Why split servers by region? DE, FR, RU — each has only one active server. This doesn’t increase the number of players. Wouldn’t it be better to merge everyone into one server, Mirage Raceway?
Thanks to a great idea by one of the original Classic engineers, we may have just stumbled on a nice solution to folks concerns around naming availability that should give everyone ample opportunity to preserve their names. We’ve a couple of things to test in the morning as it is dusting off some tech we haven’t used in a hot minute but if it goes smoothly we’ll release details asap.

Just gonna say right now, I’m not moving from firemaw, while mostly alliance there still exists world pvp and the server is very much alive.
And if my server dies because of this idiotic decision, I am just moving over to play on a private server as they seem to care about the game more than the company by now.
Not sure what even prompted this decision or why it was handled this way, you can just do what you did in retail for the dead servers and merge them together through layering and sharding, you guys already have the technology to do this.
Edit: not to mention the fact that there’s no news on how guild tranfers will be handled and firemaw already has such a population that farming is already difficult and you guy want to add more people on top of that?

What about guild transfers? What about my bank alt that has its own guild bank with tabs? Why are you still dodging the whole guild topic?
Why tf are you so damn focused on NAMES!!!?
This is ridiculous, multi billion dollar company but the “tech” isn’t properly working for anything smh. Thanks for ruining it for so many people blizzard, you’ve done it yet again.

It ain’t good enough if we don’t get to keep our EXACT NAMES.
No one asked for this. Firemaw/Gehennas players are perfectly happy with the way our current servers work.

What did i just wake up to.
-
Why merge everything into 1 mega server? i specifically moved away from a mega server because the 90% of all public raids were GDKPs which i hate. Now im forced to move to a server where that will be the norm ?
-
What about guilds, are we to lose all proggress weve made in FoS and achievements and guild tabs ? People have worked together for months to make thoes achievements and rewards tied to them. It is not fair for us to lose all this proggress just because MoP player retention is so bad , you gotta pack them all together in one place like sheep.
-
I play on 2 different servers with the same class and name, now after the merge ill have 2 mains ? what was the point of putting in time on multiple servers now ?
4)What about player/guild names ? Names are not just character ID numbers, its extensions of our self’s. We’ve worked with them for years and have grown attached to them. Names are and should be unique. I don’t wanna see 2 of my druids called Lattelecom(Gehennas) and Lattelecom(Golemagg)
- in a game where the word war is literally in the game name, i cant fathom the logic behind making the only EU server PvE. Getting ganked outside is part of the game.
Personally this is my last straw, im going to using gold on tokens and unsubbing.

Why on earth are you trying to bring Alliance and Horde players together on a single realm when it’s not even a PvP realm? What benefit will that bring in anyway shape or form? You might as well just reinforce the already established mega servers and tell the 4 people that play on Mirage Raceway to eat it.
Every single character name I have on Gehennas is taken on MR, so thanks for that also!
I love that still to this day, Blizzard refuses to go the OSRS route with player voting for stuff like this.
(p.s. Mirage Raceway is quite possibly THEE worst name for a realm in human history, at least give us something cool.)
Don’t u see all the pvp server comments? Wake up

This shows how braindead the Classic people are , RDF = Cross SERVER/REALM ,
Auction house health is fine on Golemagg and i presume its 100% fine on Gehennas aswell !
Biggest contradiction ! , if its “sooo” good then ban GDKP and RMT people , oh wait cant do that because that makes blizzard money with all the BOTS that pay for an account…
If this whole thing happens i can assure you im never coming back … fool me once fool me twice ! yeah nah as Aussie reviews would say

Let´s do a reality check ! Season of what ? , played to lvl 25 when that was the cap and didnt find it exciting AT ALL havent touched it since ! Classic era anniversary i have a 60 waiting for TBC !
On Another note ! have you EVER had a sane thought in ur head ? have you ever seen a Quest hub destroyed by 100´s of players desperatly trying to tag that 1 mob to progress thru the questline , no wait you havent since you dont live in the “real” WoW world just ur alpha testing world !
On Golemagg MoP Classic release the collecting of Flowers and killing of Neutral mobs for the supplies Quest took 3h+ to complete when its a 5min Q on a NON mega server ! … and dont give me the “layers” is the solution since that doesnt work , playing with friends and they are on Layer 3837 while you are on a diff layer = you are not playing togheter even if you relog or log off for 5-10m and log back on , You are STILL on different layers !
Why dont Blizzard just come out and say it “we will shut down classic mop since we cant be bothered to keep it alive”

How long will those free transfers be available? Until the end of MOP ?
It is so annoying, again and again! Last time, just before Cataclysm got out, Hydraxian Waterlords, the ONLY ONE RP server on EU side was meant to be closed. This time you want to push us to megaserver with people that don’t care at all about RP and immersion in the game (and that’s something that they have right to do). Tale as old as time!
We have small, tight community with events, raiding, doing dungeons and helping each other. It may be small but it lives and megaserver will kill it once and for all. Just Blizzard, please, stop this madness, give us PVP, PVE and RP server and STOP with merging!
Also, no guild transfers? That’s funny one xD

I cannot see any positive feedback from the community in this thread whatsoever.
It is evident that the blizzard classic crew did not log into the game during the first ~4 weeks during mop release on the densely populated servers - because the game was utterly unplayable due to lag, where proccs took 10+ seconds to actually work or show up on the UI. Couldn’t mount properly, couldn’t stealth, couldn’t shatter combo, couldn’t aoe mobs.
Now doing this before P2 release (where we will be doing dailies again) without mentioning how these servers will be scaled to handle the larger traffic is honestly some of the most mind numbing levels of disconnect from the community and probably the real reason for forcing PvE servers.
I’m not mentioning losing character names we’ve had for 6+ years, guild progress, guild bank tabs and all other extremely valid critique in this thread…
