Can somebody please explain the voting and expansion roll out for Ragefire & Lockjaw? I would like to know more details before I stick with a server. I do want to open up Kunark faster but I don't want 3 month expansions.. but I'm not even sure how all this works. Thank you for your time.
If that's the case, I would certainly roll on Lockjaw. Ragefire will get Kunark faster, but the players on it seem to be more Progression oriented than Time Lock oriented. I think Lockjaw is a pretty safe bet on 6 months for all remaining expansions, and Ragefire is *Likely* to be 3 months on future expansions, but nothing is set in stone.
I have played on both servers and my impression is that Lockjaw has most of the "hit 30 and start a new alt" people. Kunark being voted in at 6 months is not a given.

Yes, it could fail, but it is pretty unlikely. Later expansions would be more likely to fail, but still unlikely.
