hahaha, thought I was talkin too much, but I guess it wasn't enough.
last comes first
Too bad, that sounded like somethin that might shake me loose from WOW.
Sorry I read it, but since you admittedly haven't been in BG's I'll expand on why your ideas are not practical.
There are about 10,000 toons on a typical server. Unfortunatly that works out to much less then 100 lvl 60 people per faction interested in PVP per night, in general.
In general, AV is NOT up, unless they declare a "Holiday", which crimps the other BGs. This weekend is the WSG holiday... I still haven't seen one up. While they can tweak the relative honor of each BG to make them more viable. But still the trend is going to be to add more BGs, and the only way to keep them up is too go cross server.
Point being, there just aren't enough people on any given server to support fighting in 3 BG's, much less the 5-7 there will eventually be for faction v faction fighting to give bonuses to the entire game.
