@2 Only 2 million? Wow is the only MMO to the best of my knowledge that has over a million people in its player base. EQ2 was somewhere around 800,000 i believe.

So only 2 million people at the level cap isn't a bad thing.

@OP I think its a fair analogy. I think the whole bucket thing works well, as well as the real top end servers are an overflowing bucket, that as the realms get way to high, you will see large flows of people transfer off, and then free transfers are like blizzard poking a hole in a bucket and then plugging it back up.

I like the analogy, and I, in general, agree with the statement
