Simply put, Aspenwood is the AB fallback. IF AB is taking too long because arenanet wasn't prepared enough to get servers (yes I know there cost, and it's pretty dang expensive, but that's not to say that they haven't been neglecting their players) for the popular arenas. I paid good money to play a game not sit in the outpost while I wait for 15 minutes to play a 10 minute battle (aspenwood) and in ab I sure as heck didn't pay 120 bucks for all three campaigns so I could spend my time sitting in the outpost waiting an hour for a 25 minute battle.
Simple question, what should be done about this? I think it'd be good if they just do the quickest server readjustment they can to take servers from the less used/least active areas and transfer them to the more popular arenas (not RA, not TA, just Ab and the like.) After all, Ab would be just as popular as RA (actually more) if you didn't have to wait 30 minutes xD.
Anyone in favor of this statement please say so, anyone against it please say why...insult me if you like but I'd appreciate it if you don't start insulting others in this thread.

Not this stupid lack of servers nonsense again. Lets take a look at a few things:
- I'm not aware of any reason why ANET would be limiting the number of servers for AB and Aspenwood, especially when they aren't limited anywhere else*.
- A PvP match requires full teams on both sides to begin. At best, you only get to see one side of the arena.
- I haven't seen any proof of a server limit. Such proof would consist of sufficient players to start a match on both sides being passed over at once. For aspenwood this would be 8 Kurzicks and 8 Luxons.
The reason you aren't getting into matches has nothing to do with the servers. Its a simple matter of there not being enough players for the match to start.
So why do you think the number of servers is limited ?
*Well, HoH is limited to 1 match at a time.

Yeah, there is no "sever myth." That's been going around since the factions preview event and it just isn't true.
Furthermore, Aspenwood actaully loads faster then AB most of the time (I've never waited more then 5 miniutes for an FA, but I've waited at leave 40 before for an AB) since less people play it so there is a smaller sample of guys who can go the next time around.
