Rather than improving the infrastructure, the response was to limit participation to make it fair. How epic! Bring back the flavor of the old battles between Southshore and Tarren Mill when Stormrage was not one of the most imbalanced servers in the world according to WoWCensus. The current state of Wintergrasp does not bode well for Tol Barad. Whatever it is, it is not world PvP unlike the 100 vs 5 "world pvp" matches Wintergrasp was pre-patch when players are excluded.

There, fixed that for you.

...I'm sure Lazypeon really loves that gameplay mechanic idea.

Alliance won 95% of all Wintergrasp battles on Stormrage. It was ***stupid***. Every game ended up camping the Horde graveyard with the 5 Horde players who stuck around to get camped. This wasn't fun, enjoyable, interesting, or challenging.

The problem isn't Wintergrasp. The problem is that Stormrage as a server is fundamentally broken. Since Blizzard adamantly refuses to try to fix the problem, it will continue to get worse. What incentive possibly exists to bring Horde to this server?

Here's the kicker. If Blizzard ever decided to do something intelligent and offer free Alliance -> Horde transfers on Stormrage, Critical Mass would take it in a heartbeat. So would a bunch of other guilds. Why they don't do this is a continual mystery to many of us.
