Do you have SpamThrottle? If so then that might be why.

Kind of a Necro but yeah... Spam Throttle is great and all but the servers are in dire need of more policing. I turned spam throttle off just to see how bad it has been and I got a PM within 20 seconds of logging on, and saw the same player (Bailah horde side) spamming colored chat ads in World chat the entire time I was on. I also reported somebody for dual boxing and never got a response after 2 days of having the ticket in so I hadn't even posted another ticket about this seller. I think policing gold farmers/sellers should be way more of a priority. I really hope you guys aren't overlooking this because it is really bad.

I think this is a solid idea. It couldn't hurt anyway..

The server is still 1.7 to 2k during peak hours. I think it might be possible it is still steadily dropping but you are just taking the lowest population throughout the day and posting it as if that is how it always is......Here

The server is definitely over populated. Whether that is a bad thing is up to the player I guess... I personally wish it was like 3.5 to 4K all the time... but ayyyyyy what can you do. The leveling is only tolerable for me during NA hours (and even that is pretty much a shit show for some questing areas)... 8K players is fucking insane. It's great at high levels for dungeons and raids... but farming is a complete shit show and there are gold farmers and sellers on the server. That being said... those things kind of come with a high population. You may be better off checking out Anathema.. or another server if you just can't put up with the high pop on Elysium. It really is a slow painful grind to max level once you get to PvP zones. Expect to be ganked and sometimes camped to the point where you can not play if you are playing during peak hours. Even in off hours I get jumped like 5 times an hour or more depending on the zone (STV is pretty much an all out war zone).

Darrowshire isn't necessarily in NEED of saving. The pop is low compared to Elysium.. but it has maintained the same average population(1200-1500 average during peak hours since May) for a few months now because some people JUST want PvE. I think Anathema is more likely to drop off to unplayable population levels since it has been slowly declining. I absolutely think a cap should be put on this server... but to be honest I don't know if 7K Cap would help that much since the server is crashing during NA evenings at 5.5k players(assuming the crashes are population related). I can't even imagine what it's like during 10K peaks since I don't play during that time. I wish they could split the server into Elysium PVP 1 and Elysium PVP 2, open optional server transfers to a second server with the same content progression so guilds could migrate, have a shared cross server Battlegrounds so that BG queues pop all around the clock, and if the server populations drop later on they could merge them back because they are evenly progressed. But then you have to consider PVP ranking, AQ Scarab Lord, and the possibility of guilds falling apart in the transfers. The idea would have been better when the server launched... but it might end up being another Zeth Kur if it happened now. I don't really know if they have a lot of good options... they may have to bite the bullet and make a choice that some people do not agree with. Either way... I hope they are working on some sort of plan to fix the server issues. It's a huge bummer... especially in this version of WoW. Getting groups together can sometimes take a while...especially a 40 man raid depending on the guild and time of day. Then the server goes down and all that time gets wasted... people don't log back on.. etc. :/ Fingers crossed for a fix or something!

I think he is commenting on the fact that he shouldn't randomly float off a boat into the water from fear. That sounds like a bug, not just an issue of ganking/griefing.

Yeah honestly the gold farming and cross faction collab is really disappointing. The servers need more GMs desperately... specifically Elysium

Is it April 1st already?

9k players... ping is through the roof to the point of being nearly unplayable... and this. Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnn Can I transfer to Anathema? Ill zuck ya dick

Third time this week I have set up a group that has fallen apart thanks to a crash and rollback. :D

The servers have crashed so many times this week.. it's ridiculous.

There are reports of Raid lockouts resetting after the crash just now. FYI. It's bannable to reclear, but I hope you can fix this to prevent people anyway.

Myself and a couple others I saw in chat have been having this issue. I am unable to tame the second pet for the Hunter level 10 quest because I cannot dismiss or abandon the previous pet. Specifically this is happening with the night elf one, I can not speak on other versions of the quest. Does anyone know of a work around?

Yeah you guys should def. quit.
