This is quite long post that leads off with my WOW Classic encounter dealing with server wellness. I provide several solutions at the end if you'd rather bypass to people, but if you have a moment I suggest beginning at the beginning. I'm the GM of DZ (DANGER ZONE), which is a guild currently residing on Incendius. We started out on Stalagg in the start of wow classic gold. Herod was really the server that we'd coordinated to land on with a lot of other guilds. But, queue times along with a gloomy faction balance induced us not to roll there.
Stalagg was a server at the start. It had been about 55/45 Horde favored. It did have extensive queue occasions that continued to plague it. Faction equilibrium remained intact because it seemed both sides dropped an equal number of WOW players. This went on for a couple of weeks and it became evident that the Alliance were losing more WOW players than Horde which resulted in Heartseeker being Alliance dominant. In the long run it had been about 33/66 Horde favorite.
Now 33/66 is not but the transports were just getting started. Before the launch of World Bosses along with the Honor system the next tide of transfers happened on November 8th (Supply ). From the time the weekend finished the bottom had given out on much of the Alliance inhabitants. With fear of getting camped worse than they were Alliance lost a part of it is leveling and more population. On November 11th they left free transfers faction special to Horde (Source). It was far too late. We had been asked to make a choice for 80 people in three times.
The sense of failure because a GM that did not make the decision that is correct at the correct time is immeasurable. By leaving them onto a server that was impossible to perform I failed my guildies. Each and every flight master was camped, Ironforge camped, Blackrock Mountain.... Don't even get me started. We knew that we needed to move not automatically due to the camping but since the server economy was non existent and there were no fresh buy classic wow gold players to recruit.
