Maybe we should have a discussion about the realms, since Blizz is merging so many of them. Perhaps we can decide on a server to use before WoD launches.
For me, I have never been into PvP so have always been on a PvE server. Exodar seems to be well balanced with population, not too many and not too few. Though I am sure there are others. The merging, tho, I see as really hurting some realms. From what I have read and understand, many left Moonguard because of the players going overboard with sex. Then I heard Wyrmrest Accord was good, but now those realms are merged and Goldshire is just aweful, tho that place can be avoided to some extent.
I have several 90s, and would not have a problem moving one or two to a new server if there would be good activity. But at $25 per character, moving is not a simple thing. I would like to start getting into end game content, but I am disillusioned by most of the current raiding guilds and how raiders tend to flash through the content solely to quickly get to the end and get the gear. I like to enjoy the story of things, so rushing through on my first run is not fun to me. I was rushed through Ice Crown Citadel and had no idea what was happening.
As for PvP, I don't care for the open world PvP, but if we had a good dedicated group doing battlegrounds or arena battles, I might find that interesting.
Any one have other thoughts?
