I am REALLY trying to switch my guild to Yak’s Bend because 3 of our members switched there and say its more active.

Are the server popcaps going to increase again? Namely Yak’s Bend? God i hope i can get my guild through this with the people i really want to keep.

If anything, they seem to be shrinking population caps. Best bet would be wait until low concurrency or patch day.

Yea, I recently switch from NA Crystal Desert to EU Far Shiverpeaks to help some people with Arah and now I am freaking out. It’s so quiet in Lion’s Arch.. and everywhere else for that matter. I really want to get back to Crystal Desert, but I think it’s impossible now. Everyone I usually run dungeons with is in Crystal Desert.

I’m on Yaks Bend and my guildies are saying that very recently their friends who have just started playing cannot get into Yaks.

I have a theory on this, which may or may not be true. I think perhaps Arenanet are really tightening servers right after a massive bott ban. Idea being, if they were to almost close a server right after banning a ton of botts, then the botts wouldn’t be able to set up shop again on that server and would be forced to move to a low population server. Eventually, all botts will be restricted to low population servers, ripe for Anet to pick off.

Assuming my theory is incorrect, then my advice would be to keep trying. Guildies have made it through, it only takes one person to leave the server to open a space for you.

So keep trying and best of luck!

Haha, I’m not know for making wise decisions, but the people I helped really appreciated it. Now I just have to wait it out and hope Crystal Desert will have room when the 7 days are up. Wish that they still had the option to pay gems though.

good theory!!!

even just not allowing them to setup shop is a good idea too.
