The issue affects all servers, and we wanted to keep the conversation in one place rather than have it scattered across 4+ different threads in Vet's Lounge, Player Support, Newbie Zone, and TLP.
It affects all servers, no just TLPs. The difference is that on TLPs, Agnarr in particular, it is massively impactful. Imagine if on your server (and your server only), every raid boss in the most recent expansion was broken. You could go back and raid the content in the previous expansion but nothing in the new one. Your guild's meaningful raiding was effectively on hold for 1 month. Not an exact comparison, but fairly close. That is what we're now dealing with. We've already back-flagged, even our alts. That nature of acquiring BoT keys for every raider means that most people are just now ready for Agnarr. Just in time for it to be broken. What would happen to your server if all raiding in the most recent expansion stopped for 1 month? Try to put yourself in our shoes and have a little compassion.
Agnarr is the most popular server in the game right now, in which, every single account is a paying account either through cash or Krono. Also, there is another High and Med pop TLP servers. By some guesstimates, there are almost as many people playing on TLP servers than live. So even if it does cost you game time, it is in Daybreaks interest.
