And again the thing with giving up one thing or the other. You don't get it that people don't want to do that right? But yeah there are always people who defend the stuff SE does as long as it doesn't rub them the wrong way.

I don't mean this to sound harsh, and I really feel bad for those that have to choose, but.... That's too bad (again, I know that sounds negative, it's not intended that way, just can't think of a better way to express it). Something needed to be done and this is what they have decided this is the best/easiest/whatever to go about it. I get that people don't want to choose... but, that's not an option. They made it pretty clear that complaining about it is futile. We would be better served spending our time trying to congregate as many people as we could somewhere that would be the most convenient for the most people of our particular group.

Is it bad to think that I'm looking forward to the chaos this will cause? At least it's a change and I'm all for change. Will be painful for most but change always is. Nothing lasts forever.

Maybe a little bad. I agree it will be painful, but I expect it will all work out in the end. I guess I am just the type of person that says "Ok this is the situation, what can I do to make the best of this situation." rather than "This sucks. I hate it. Don't do it." That's not to say I am right and they are wrong... just different.

If people never try to change something with their opinion we would live in a really really bad world. Worse than it is right now
First saying what we think and if we can't influence the decision we can try to make the best of the situation.

Not to parrot what I've been saying in my own thread, but they really should do this a week or two before 5.0, not in the middle of a raid tier where people have established statics and groups working on clears.

I am willing to look for new recruits on the expansion as much as I hate to do it, it's a lot easier to recruit people at the start of a raid tier instead of in the middle of it.

Oh I don't disagree with you, though I would imagine that they are doing it beforehand to work out any kinks so I can see why they are opting to do that. My post was more to those "This sucks I shouldn't be forced to <insert whatever>." and in a perfect world no one ever would have to choose between anything ever.... but unfortunately that perfect world doesn't exist (even in games).

But it is not only the choosing.. It is the EU Servers population. Right now its difficult to find people for some stuff or even find new people for a static. How should this work if population ist splitted in two parts?
EU doesn't really need new servers. Yes, people will come back for 5.0 but many of them will leave as fast as they came back as it is always happening.

That's a completely different argument. If there is (or will be) a major disparity on content clears or queues or what have you then that should definitely be addressed.

Oh it is always futile to complain if you are not a japanese player and i know that, but still people will vent and they have every right to do so. Its not the players fault that SE is too stingy to get better servers, find a better solution for releases or simply close servers before they are overpopulated.
