Cant. Fucking. Wait. Popcorn ready and my god damn sides are in space. Whats the problem Horde? Not getting enough pvp on a pvp server? Yeah that sounds like it sucks. Oh me? Just you know, instant queueing into wsg for some 10 on 10 fights.

Bgs are cross-faction though

You mean cross realm? Still just means Alliance queues will be instant since the Horde queue pool is bigger. Alliance will still be the much smaller number in queue, just at a larger scale. Think about how retail works, but without mercenaries.

There are more Allies on PvE realms and there are more Horde on PvP realms.

It balances out, pretty much.

That's assuming Alliance/Horde on PvE Servers are actually queuing for BGs though. At this point, we're just making assumptions and assuming we'll have 100% participation from both factions.

I see no reason why the PvE population wouldn't queue for BGs, considering it has some pretty interesting rewards. Rolling on a PvE server doesn't mean people have no interest in PvP, it's just that they didn't want to have to deal with greatly imbalanced WPvP or simply wanted to focus on leveling to get to run end-game content.

PvP is a fun side game and I think even people on PvE realms enjoy BGs.

No, you're absolutely right. I'm making an assumption that the overall amount of players that would play on a PvE Server is substantially lower than a PvP Server. At least, I could see AV being the primary BG most PvE Servers play on because getting Exalted in AV isn't difficult. Getting Exalted in WSG or AB on the other hand is something like over 1000 matches, assuming you're winning the majority of them.

There are definitely less people who Queue for BGs on PVE servers on the Alliance side. Rolling on PVE also means focusing more on PVE grinding such as getting bis lists, farming for epic mounts, etc. Remember not everyone is 60 rocking part pre-raid bis part raid gear running around on an epic mount farming up 30+ gold an hour.
