Alright so i just woke up, I know it's late, but anyways I'd just like to share with you what I dreamed, for me it's a bit wierd that I even dream about WoW and stuff that could change, and ideas/suggestions about it, so I guess it must have been a good one.
Alright so to the point, before i forget it, we all know that you forget dreams rather quickly if you don't talk about it.
So I was dreaming about the problem that servers have right now, some are overpopulated (maybe not) but some are indeed very underpopulated, and there has been a lot of switching servers and paid transfers etc. So I was thinking that it might be a good idea to make a new system which would more or less "lessen" the impact of servers and save our good players some money. Even though this would obviously not sit right with Blizzard (as they are a big company and want as much revenue as possible) but still I'm just casting it out there.
So, this would be a free system (opposed to the paid service which would have no queue and so on, as now.) The idea is that you queue your character for a certain realm, or a specific status, f.e High Population+PvE+ Battlegroup and queue your character (while still playable on the server you are from now) and wait until someone from that realm to want to leave the realm their on now (but from the same faction, as to avoid destroying the balance, or, if there are more alliance than horde on the server, make it so that it would switch an horde player for an alliance if possible.)
When I was dreaming I even got a picture about how this would work, I made one and uploaded it for you guys.
You can see that there are a few requirements as to what you can search for (there should be anyways), for example, you have to choose more than 1-2 battlegroups and more than 1-2 Population choices, or "Any". This would help cast a wider net to be able to balance out the servers a lot more, and faster.
The key to this is to make it free, so that anyone could use it and then maybe after a couple of months we can see some more balance between alliance and horde.
Anyways, it was just a dream.. what do you guys think?

As requested:
This suggestion would be much better placed in the long-running and ongoing thread regarding low population servers, where people have been discussing ideas between themselves and building on them for a while http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2986509135. |
