 From my experience, a big factor why people are repelled from the game is the server sizes. Specially at peak times. Here is why:

A peak times when the top server becomes full, the second server is opened. However because the second server does not have many players, its hard to find a battle due to massive waiting times.

Suggestion: When top server gets full, open the second server, however split the number of players in top server in half send half to second server so both servers have about equal number of players. Therefore the waiting time in both servers is pretty decent. When numbers go up and both servers get filled same can be used for third server.

thanks
beast.

 But it's impossible to move players from one server to the other. The cap was raised to 900 (or is it 800?) players, so there will be bigger player pool on the first server, and then it got lowered. At first, I think it was 1K players and it was too much. 700'ish was too little, so they went for in-between.

not sure the idea of "transfering players from one server to another" can be done without losing data.
also the transfere can't be done during fight.
this would require to merge the servers which will cause lag in all games.

constructive idea tho.

 Just have one server than with 4k limit? At least until we get more players:P

If you have any suggestion for this problem too please post.

 Just so you know, server expansion also costs money. They can't magically merge it into one server because they'd have to get rid of the other three and expand one greatly. Furthermore, massive lag - AQW has it, the more populated the server is, the more lag you'll likely experience.

I see the point of your suggestion, but it isn't possible.
