After reading Wasdstomps post about Badlands and what the future may entail, I figured I'd shoot out issues that may plague the smaller population servers (like Iron Rock). Wasdstomp brings up some very valid questions about the future of Badlands, and ones that will definitely need answered. They have already been taking steps to address population issues on Badlands, as seen by the ending of trial accounts and free character transfers to the server. I would imagine that the free character transfers will extend to paid character transfers, once that service is implemented. Although that certainly does depend on the current state of the game / server at that time.
