Quote:B)Problems that you describe with Horde players discouraged because they're "always" going up against teams with Naxx loot are again a problem with low populations of players. With a large population pool, you won't always be going up against the same teams all the time, so even pugs will get a chance to go up against pugs in between some thrashings by well equiped groups. The ratio of players going into battlegrounds should roughly normalize to the overall population ratio. Anytime you have to resort to server specific arguments like "Stormrage's activity ratio was roughly 7.1 Alliance to every 1 Horde" demonstrates an argument for why cross-server battlegrounds will greatly enhance the playing experience.
Oh, I never doubted that. I do feel a little sorry for the realms that we're inflicting our pop imbalance upon, though.
