I just got an idea that the GMs could give a amount free fac change for hordes per day to increase the ally population. Saw this on another server back in wotlk, the server actually got more balanced.

Because faction changes are so fast and efficient to do on TBC.

Yes, the "Please play alliance" message you see if you login to a new account has had incredible success in helping the Alliance population grow and balance out.

How can anyone say its balanced when in the wsg que there is 1 ally and 34 hordes. Please do something about it... It's OK some hours of the day but 18:00+ is it very unbalanced.

Stopping horde creation was a retarded idea. (No offense Henry, I luv ya for making all this possible :D)
Imagine youre a new player and want to make ud mage/rog/pr over 9000 but youre forced to play ally ? I´d be like "nigga please" and go on an other server :d
The npc is better, it shows that the population aint balanced but you still can choose to be an other ud rogue and wait 20 min in quote.

That's exactly why we did the create character message. Because I hated disabling Horde character creation for the exact reasons you listed. It pisses people off and really can HURT population. So if I had to do it, I did it only on extreme cases.
Sure the populations always fluctuate but we've seen great success with the character thus far.
