I know it may be hard to get a good perspective from the outside, be it from a player on a high pop realm, or blizzard themselves. But the fact is that a wow server does not need a ton of people for it to function, so long as the people playing there band together and make the best of it, which is EXACTLY what we are doing on Zandalar Tribe.
Even though blizzard is doing nothing but hurting our situation(offering free transfers off the server) we have been seeing increases in player activity over the past few months.
Despite being extremely small pop compared to todays most played realms, we can still enjoy almost every aspect of gameplay that any other server offers, and more.
Consider actually offering aid in the form of free transfers TO the server instead of simply giving up on us entirely. Don’t rob your loyal players of this. I realize that there are a fair amount of servers that are indeed in need of a merge, but Zandalar tribe is not one of those servers.
Open transfers to ZT. Let us keep our home.
We are not asking for much. Just a chance. What is there to lose?

Dear Blizzard,
please let us keep our home. I have characters on the " bigger" servers too, but ZT is home, a gem among the pieces of glass, something very unique.
We all work together to reach our goals, and the community spirit is amazing.

there should always be a rp-pvp server. Nuff said.

Please save Zandalar Tribe and keep the legacy of those that prefer playing on the smaller realms and RP-PVP servers.

When reading some comments by poeple who never played on RP-PVP servers, then I can see analogy to the behaviour of Blizzard employees who decided how they decided about those RP servers based on hypocritical and shallow analysis.
All those who played on Zanadalari know what happend. And many of them described why ZT is in state that is. Those who played there know what happend and reason why it happend not gonna repeat that it was perfectly explained above by some.
But RP-PVP severs when you really look back in time has the most rich, colorful and best community ever. This is not nostaligia crap that PR Blizzard wanna sells you with incoming WOTLK. Everyone by common sense should by today know that rich enviroment is not made only by game designer but also by community. Whoever really believe into Blizz PR and thinking you dont need put work into that, then you are just hypetrain fool.
I played on Sporeggar and later on xrealmed retail servers along Defias Brotherhood. DB was at the time server where all WPVPers of EU wanted be. Being active Wpvp player and PVP player in open world I could pretty much see hundred of events made by RP guilds that often led to differnt kinds of parades but also to PVP events along. Nothing that really happen on pure PVP or PVE servers when you compare it to number of active playerbase on server / number of events. Its out of capability of casual parse player or Blizzard employee experiance based on whatever statistic. Thats why they were often spreeding stuff like WPVP is dead. Sadly none of us on those servers were paying attention forums crap because we all were busy by our WPVP stuff, or creating event stories etc. One of the things is that we lost information war 
. Basicaly that happend even on ZT, trolls spamming on LFG that server is dead yet it was even comparable to any average server. Tho ZT it had much harder than it had DB or Sporeggar back in time due those Blizzard actions in free transfers out.
My classic ERA char nor TBC(nonactive) is not anymore on ZT, its caused by the fact that one is out due population issues and one caused that I moved because friends moved. That doesnt mean I cant support this OP activities by opinion based on real in game experience about RP-PVP servers that always were and still can be the best places for rich and colorfull enviroment and community hotspots despite low population.
This is what you Blizzard fail to create because you fail to see you need to give people freedom somewhere to actually create it themself. No matter your PR when youe always push mentality towards game has your own goals.

its a very small community that still is progressing on the isle (i was told they recently managed to unlock the badge vendor) and doing different rp contests on a weekly base. let them enjoy the way they play the game and leave 1 rp-pvp server exist. yes its a very small community but thats the server they feel the most comfortable with. they can do cross faction contests without some weirdos ganking them and ruining the experience. we moved from that server but i know people that leveled a new character to play with likeminded people an RP and do fun contests that wouldnt be possible on other servers because of griefing and it not being a RP server

You are indeed right, we did unlock the badge vendor. It’s something.

Even though I do not PvP any more and play exclusively on PvE and RP servers, as a former player on Defias Brotherhood I must say that RPPvP was probably the quintessential way to play WoW back then, and I’m happy I experienced it, with all its world PvP at all levels (even though flying existed). I don’t think wPvP would be anywhere near that experience in Classic.
It’s sad to see two servers that players had to “fight” for - Celebras and ZT - going away. I love HW… But the free transfers killed it - at least Horde side. I don’t expect many people from Celebras or ZT to stay on HW… I’m afraid Horde will continue to be practically non-existent there.

Thank you for your post. This is exactly what we feel, and what I meant when I as OP wrote this post (under a different name, as I wasnt sure how the alias works).
Blizzard, please, let us play the game in the way we love to do.
There is a whole lot of players who don’t want a server where everything is GDKP, gear inspections, minmaxing the fun out of everything.
I regretably transfered to Golemagg, joined a pug for some heroics, but was kicked due to my trinkets not being good enough. Even though my gear was all Kara/ZA/season 2-3 epics.
This is not how we want to play the game, and you have yourself said so in your post about visions going forward.
Please allow ZT to continue on and open up transfers to the server.
Give players a home where people can play the game because they think the game is fun and where the people of the server takes an active role in caring for the players.
Once again, this is what you Blizzard have said you want to see!
