Server Population

Did Torchbearer lose a lot of active players? When the game picked back up it seemed like this was going to be the "main" server. 

 

Judging by the number of forum posts it seems like the others are more popular. Do the others have more players because they have a specific unofficial niche (like the EU/roleplaying servers)?

The server status tab at the top of the main forum landing page displays current server population.

When HC launched Torchbearer was the only server, and in an effort to split up the loading as new servers were added HC turned on double XP on the other servers. Quite a few people migrated because of that, or because of the niche things (RP, PvP, EU, what have you), but several former live server player groups moved to Excelsior so it ended up with the largest population.
