I like the server being blizz-like, but everything goes wrong when you reach the "integrism" zone.
This suggestion is very good.
Queue from everywhere was not implemented on retail, but on retail, there was 5k+ players on the realm. After some patch, bg queues from several servers were merged, and that will probably never happen here.
If the target is to reach a "blizz-like" rate of BG procs, then we really should consider those queues :)

Like it is now is a very blizzlike emulation of a low pop retail server pre-BGmerge, which idk if any of you played on, but they popped so infrequently that nobody even bothered to queue anymore. That's why they pooled several servers together for battlegrounds (IN VANILLA), yet we are only one server; a small one at that by blizzard standards.

Battlegrounds are shared between multiple servers where their players can engage in PvP against other realms. Each group of realms is called a Battlegroup. Battlegroups were introduced in Patch 1.12.

But like the alterac valley debates, we can all wait and see for it to happen (after the initial storm has died down), since people don't seem to agree and think those of us that have played other private servers for years now haven't seen this happen already 10 times before.

Fyi I don't support this at level 60, because the problem doesn't exist there. This is to do with leveling from 1-59 and the battlemasters being up to 20 minutes out of your way just to queue for. Ain't nobody got time for that. Is it more blizzlike if the battlegrounds don't ever happen pre-60?

The other server has this on their FAQ:

"Will there be options to queue for Battlegrounds from outside the capitals or respective Battleground locations?

For level 60 characters there will be no additional options to queue for Battlegrounds. For low-level characters we may introduce an option to queue for Battlegrounds through Inkeepers."

*Reason for edit: I miss read the quote the first time*

Well.. I quit retail because of stuff like this, so..
This would really take away the whole point of playing a "blizzlike"(first time I wrote that) -private server for me.

Big NO from here. :)

It's not a big deal anyway... You can queue from any place if you just ask some friendly player in major town to do it for you. So it may not be 1.12 like but as i said it's not a game breaking...

I SERIOUSLY wonder how some of you even found Nostalrius and then think its even remotely okay to demand custom shit for the server, really blows my mind.

Keep..it...classic. It's that simple. Please stop tainting it up with your non classic suggestions!

Most of us are here for that vanilla experience, not your little made up version of what vanilla should have been like.

I'm not saying they should do that... I was saying that you can queue from any place anyway. I'm also against

As Viper said a few pages back, this won't happen. Ever. So why are you guys still debating?
No member ever downed a raid boss, by dying for his guild. He killed the raid boss, by DPS'ing it down to zero.
