Server population increased by 5k in 1.5 hours

Judging based on their reaction to the recent posts , I dont quite think they do .
I wonder if the GMs / Admins play on their private characters in their free time .

Well, do you want them to make a knee-jerk reaction or to take their time on an important decision that will influence the Nostalrius experience for good?

I would much rather wait a little than have them do something drastic and foolish.

Obviously they should take their time , but I wish Deamon acknowledged that there is a massive problem with the current PvP - server population . No matter the reasons , the massive delays / viewrange should be adressed instead of giving the empty phrase of " welcoming players from all around the world " .

they've already created their own community that doesn't interact with the rest of the faction.

So? Is there something very important to you in the WoW that does require "interaction with the rest of the faction"?
How is lack of communication with a group of players can generate so much hate towards a people of some country\region? Oh yes, they are the reason of delay ... if we replace all of them with "pure" US\EU english speaking players, Nost delay will be gone or what?
I must admit, it is very hard to communicate with most of the asian players, lots of them are afking or bg, or doing stupid things, but ppl from your countries making the same stupid things, just not that often.
And everytime when you speak about chinese, you mention russians. Are we some kind of a "untermensch" for you or what? If you don't know what is that word means, google it ... might be very educational for some of you.

It's pretty obvious from other different private projects that the chinese community has absolutely not intention to integrate with others and they have indeed a well settled community of thousands of people. Some are higher in the hierarchy than others and it's kind of scary, because they account share and who is it that has to do it?
Yes, the lower hierarchy ones and that is the way the higher established players get their freebies of rank 14 and other commodities. They pay for the lower players VPN connections, in return they get farmed gold, help account sharing and afking with their characters in battlegrounds for 20hrs per day.

If we're starting to argue like this , one could say that there is no value of having one single server for the EU/US and the CN community . If they arent communicating in any way , neither through chat nor gameplay , why even have them on the same server ?

Interacting with people is the whole fucking point of MMORPG. There's a reason Nostalrius enforces, or at least used to enforce an "English language only" rule. It's very important that players could understand each other, and the vast majority of Chinese players cannot do so. And yet their numbers here are huge, there are thousands of them playing, and in my opinion it would be a lot better if they just had a server to call their own. They cannot coexist with the English-speaking majority, these two communities don't understand each other and no cooperation can happen between them. So making a separate server would be the best option.

And where do you get those inside China news?
Stop spreading rumors and vote Trump if you have to.

Literally the only reason to play vanilla over retail? Here's a short list of things interaction makes possible:
-looking for groups through talking
-higher commitment to behave because it affects the rate people want to group with you
-feeling that you're actually playing with people, not bots
-making friends (and rivals)

Did you ever wish that you could talk to a member of the opposite faction (to take on a group of mobs for example)? You can't because they don't understand your common/orcish. It's happening with the chinese, except they're actually on your faction.
