In PvP the same factions can't attack each other, though? This is my first MMPORPG, so it's all new to me.

You can duel, but you can't fight to the death.

Are we going to do this? Should Mwilding put up a poll for the lower population PvP realm so we can vote?

Hi guys, new here with Fuzzimilt (40 priest)

Not sure why anyone would think Shadow Moon is a bad idea. No queues and less lag than Bronzebeard.

Every PvP server gets busy over time, just wait a few hours or a few weeks. Shadow Moon has been around consistently since beginning with good population to fight but no waits. Perfect for us.

BTW, I have a 15 rogue there, Milt

Ok guys, I want to start playing my horde char this week. Are we set on Shadow Moon? Everybody who plans on creating (or already has) a character on Shadow Moon and plans on using them often enough say yay!

Yay!

Spinebreaker is a low PVP server(according to that stats page). I just started there last night and have a lvl 6 tauren warrior. I am still catching on to the whole thing, first mmorpg.

Quick question. Is Shadow Moon one of the new servers or one that has been around since last November? Just curious as if possible, if I decided to play on a PvP server, I'd like to start on one where everyone isn't so high. It would be good to pick one that had about even numbers between Horde and Alliance.

If you guys do start up please post when it's official and please mention which class you chose. That way if I join, I can pick a class that's somewhat needed. I've only played one main character to level 58 (shaman) and have no alts, so there are a few classes I'd be willing to try (mostly druid or warlock - always prefer the caster or hybrid type classes over pure melee).

Kuch, pretty much every server that was around for more than a month going to have a lot of high characters. If you play a lot it only takes a couple of weeks to get past lvl 40.

Maybe my sense of time is off a bit, but I was asking if it was one of the new ones that are only about a month (??) old. I've been playing this game since day one and have no alts and my main is 58, so you can tell I'm more of a casual gamer. With nice weather finally here and my main still needing most of my attention, my thought is that I wouldn't be spending too much time on this alt.

I definately vote for a low pop server! It doesn't take long for medium pop's to turn to High, and god knows everyone hates those damn login cues.
I have a 60 and a 48 on RP servers (EarthenRing and Shadow Council) and a lowly 32 on BlackRock (PVP server), so I am always up for starting a new main on a low pop PVP server.

It looks like from the poll we should choose another server unless there is a really good reason to stay with Shadow Moon we are going to lose a few AT members because of the population.

What say ye?

How about we do a low pop PvP server (on the east coast, since most of us live there). I think that'll be acceptable with most. I personally don't care either way.

Mwilding, how about you pick any PvP low pop server and mention it in your OP. Also, I think instead of having an anonymous poll it'd be better if you added a list of names under the server. That way once we get enough people under a certain server name we can start. You can add my name under whichever server you pick, as I mentioned I'm ok with anything.
