Name reservation dissapointment Vol. 2.
That's great news!
They announce a better sounding server, AFTER everyone already has their 3 names...
gg
Great! I am seriously considering swapping.
Time to level up the delete skills ready for version 2 head implosion.
How may people are turning Shazzrah into a ghost town for a better name?
Ugh, this is kind of annoying. Do I stick with Shazzrah and just hope for the best?

I've already wrestled all my troops to roll on Shazzrah, so I'm in the same boat just hoping everyone else moves, haha. I guess Blizzard should have foreseen this... wouldn't be the first time they've completely underestimated expected people on launch day.
Blizzard are complete fudging tools. Utter morons
By the stench of https://classic.wowhead.com/quest=432/those-blasted-troggs , I say ! One more wormhole to scout for that https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=16375/sewage-slime Nymis and his spineless https://classic.wowhead.com/item=6530/nightcrawlers !!
A nice gesture, but they should've opened more than one

What you said. In the end there is always the option to merge realms.

More realms = more servers = higher cost. They go for the minimal effort route and I think it's reasonable from a company-standpoint. They will react if there are too few realms, but they won't set up realms they don't need in 2 months.
Good on them but seems a little late as people don't get that 4th character.
It's also the better name and was one of the test server names, I guess they're running out of names, Lashlayer next :lol:
I think we're going to see some more in north america, too.
I haven't seen the EU server populations yet.. how many were already full?
> both German servers full
Yeah I think we're going to see a few more new servers, not just one.

Layers are essentially soft-realms. They're not separated by name, but they are indeed many other servers (machines) running those game worlds. So I don't think it's much difference in cost had they chosen to go that route. I think they're just really wanting to make sure these communities last on the servers by not having too many and interest dwindles and servers die.
This was highly needed, GJ BLIZZ
