Server exodus when rated BGs come out?

[Ualaa]

I'm alliance side on Cenarius (US) which is in Whirlwind.
I'd prefer alliance side, but am not entirely against rolling horde toons.

Whirlwind... horde seem to win almost every Warsong, but the other BG's can go either way at any point.

Im surprised I never see you! Ya horde on whirlwind do pretty well. They always win AB and do well in WSG (except against me). Everything else is a toss up, which is fine. Any idea where the top horde populations are in our BG?

I stopped playing WoW for quite a while, then came back multiboxing and have loved it. But haven't really been able to find a good click of people. I don't know about spending all that money (on my stupid game as my wife also puts it) but I think I would like get together with other like minded players.

Well, I'd prefer PVP server - not sure about you guys. I do like the fact that Whirlwind is in Seattle.. I was afraid it was in Boston (a little more latency from the west coast).

As far as PVP servers, in whirlwind you have:

Ravenholdt
The Forgotten Coast
Anub'arak
Maiev
Vashj

It's gonna be a few bucks to transfer/faction change a lot of toons for sure, but like a lot of others I just don't have the energy or the desire to start over from scratch. I'd be re-making the exact same toons. The fun of a new group wears off pretty fast, and I'd rather be 85 and tearing up pvp than months behind.

Aye, having a data center close is pretty important. I am currently on a boston data center and I use the registry fix and even then it drops my ping from 250 to 130. I go onto a closer data center and my ping is 30-40s max. Seattle data center servers are not run by AT&T so that is a bonus right there.

Just talked to a shaman on Anub'arak who is #2 5v5 in the whirlwind battlegroup.

Anub sounds like a pretty solid server for horde. He said they win everything, significantly outnumber alliance and have some of the highest rated pvpers in the battlegroup. Healthy economy etc.

All the check marks are there for me. I'll keep asking around.

And Edit: I'm east coast but I play on a west coast server at the moment, and it's not that horrible.

I would consider moving if enough boxers are up for it - Im EU though.

So how much is gonna cost to move 50 chars then

Any of us have their own vent server?
