Message to the private servers community

I would love a PvE realm. But only if we could transfer our character instead of begining from lvl 1 again.
But im also with the people who say that it will split the community if we get a PvE realm.

If you wish to kill monsters and emote other idiots all day long without any kind of intuitive drive to engage with other players, other than grinding fucking 5man dungeons for the rest of your life..... go to Peenix.

Realms are dead as shit, 100% sure you won't get ganked.

This is what I'm scared of. Yes, a PVE realm would do wonders at the moment regarding lag and overcrowding. However, this the server's boom, when its population is possibly at its peak. What happens when people quit due to waning interest or other releases, such as other private servers for different expansions with competitive quality to Nost, or going back to retail for new expansions? When the population depletes, it will become very hard to find a guild that raids your times, especially if you're NA. Actually, I had great difficulty finding a guild I wanted to join that fit my needs on this single server as it is. Almost every guild I see recruiting either raids EU hours, raids too much, or uses DKP. I'm lucky to have a guild to call home, and that's before a population split.

I can't see this being good at the end of the day unless there was room for liberal character transfers. However, this would also lead to the problem of economy abuse.

Great attitude. Let's encourage NOS players to leave just because they might enjoy the game in a different way than you.

The only thing that bind me to this server is the player base. DO NOT SEPARATE THE COMMUNITY! it won't be the same and as the rest say it could kill the server. think this very carefully. I love to see people in every single Corner of the game, and not having to wait ages for an instance.

I like the idea but I see many problems with the execution.

• Counting players according to a forum post that likely over 90% of all players will never read is not a good way to start.
• Restarting the content isn't a good argument to me either, as for once I would have to level all the way again - nope! - and then the current content is still pre-BWL, which is early enough for lots of competition.
• Cutting the population in half will make group-searching even more annoying than it is currently.
• If the current vanilla hype is over, we will be left with two almost empty servers.

And all that just to get rid of those annoying gray-gankers. I think a much better idea would be to just get rid of those annoying gray-gankers instead (+1 ice-cold logic). Also with some back-end improvements I am sure the lag could be lowered to a point where the server is able to handle the players it currently has.

Good idea, but make sure you advertise it in the game itself so people will know about it. Not everyone looks at the forum or even the announcements.

You must be dumb, sarcasm is overflowing in my post. Noone is that stupid.

should only allow character transfers for Tauren players only. so we can ship all the cows over there and free up pixel space on the main pvp realm.
