Nobody has answered this question.. Do people really think 1 server can handle 1.5k people on classic (no planes even yet) without serious congestion (thus fighting over spawns/camps)? The 2 servers at 600+ had issues with overcrowding at times, workable but still crowded. There is just no way 1 server can handle this many people IMHO especially late levels. There is just not room to spread out. This makes no sense logistically that I can see. I'd be curious for Rogean to at least explain the thinking, we might not agree, but at least might have better understanding.

There were no overcrowding issues with 600 people, and there won't be any with 1.5k.

The issue isn't 'there aren't enough zones to go to'. That's just stupid if you think that.

The issue is that every idiot and their mother wants to go to the same 3 zones for any given 10-15 levels. This is how you end up with 40 people in mistmoore while permafrost is completely empty.

There is *plenty* of room for 1.5k people on the server, as-is. However, those people have to be smart enough to not all try to go to the same 10 or 12 zones.
