Nope, they fixed those a week or so into WoD by lifting the population
cap (was about 4k, went up to about 8k, going by Censusplus results
ingame), queues went down to only a few mins at that point (having
been several hours at first), then gone altogether and I don't see our
pop ever getting that high again unless the next expansion has a
similar effect of bringing back loads of people. So unless they lower
it back down again, login queues are probably a thing of the past.
However, lag and competition for mobs are still both alive and well,
we'll probably see both in Tanaan when 6.2 hits...

Hehe drama sucks, indeed, I gave up on guilds after a while, as I came
to the conclusion that I was a source of a fair part of the drama
which I hated; I'm evidently not a person who fits well in group
settings like that!

I'd go to a medium-high pop realm in your position, not one as
overpopulated as Draenor, but then I know from experience what
over-full realms are like - give me an empty one any day ;-)
