its hard to say which realm needs more players. it's pretty unbalanced all the time but in both directions. only thing i realized is that destros dominated in most of the RvR events, but thats months ago

Attached some numbers from server over last couple of weeks since I created this page:
http://fplteam.co.uk/RoR/popcharts.php
Overall I'd say the balance in terms of pure numbers is pretty equal but my eyes tell me Destro has better overall balance between their different archetypes and careers, and I still feel Order lacks tanks (although there seem far more KOTBS than there were a cpl weeks back). As you can see from the "popcharts" site though, and as ppl will attest to from playing Scs over any prolong period, the hourly Order/Des balance numbers can swing wildly from one side to the other.
No easy answer to your question so I guess play whatever takes your fancy!

play what you want to play but heres a tip for you, if you want to play a destro too you better get ready to have to be "rich" cause most destro classes have really expensive gear....or you can come to ordo were the supply of gear for almost all classes are plentiful and cheap

Shh I was lying when I said that, destro prices are fked and not only that, but we also do NOT have anything new on the AH poppin up like order does.
My question is why? Is it because of drop rates? We have the same amount of people farming 100%, unless they're hoarding the items like retards.
If you play destro & order you gotta see the imbalance on the market. Why is that at any time of the day when I log in order there's +12 jewels for sale, meanwhile destro side I've seen maybe 1/2 +12 jewels on the AH for the past WEEK.

I would say order need more players going by what i see, best thing to do is have atleast 1 char on each side so u can switch sides if things get boring.

The right answer may depend on where you live.
If you live in the US, and plan on playing in the evenings after work (aka prime playing hours for most people), then you need to roll destro. That's when I play, and we are always outnumbered in that time slot.
Earlier in the day, when more Euros are online, I think destro is better represented.
