Whereas if you wanted to token to a server that has really high faction pop already, make it cost more.

Basically, cost based on how badly it would effect faction populations.


That said, it's really difficult to balance pops. Just because there are 10k VS on the server, doesn't mean they all play at the same time, or even play at all. On Mattherson, we have huge swings in pop at certain times of day. Especially due to larger outfit event nights, etc. There isn't much SOE would be able to do to even those out as it would out-balance the other days/times. Some players only play on event night for their outfit, etc.
Issue is that it is a US West server. It would not be wise to force move people cross regions. So I do not see force moving genudine pop to US east servers viable.
