By articles, do you mean those forum threads you posted in the locked thread? If so, then I don't have to read them because I was there :P

I leveled to above 55 in Illuvitae, the biggest Kunark/Velious elf team guild. At the time, the server was largely (not entirely) leaning toward being elf/short/human vs dark, and I lost count of the times "lighty" guild high elf clerics would immy heal against us. It was frustrating and unfair, but looking back, I loved it. It really helped to give me a sense of in-game purpose; a reason to continue fighting. They felt they had to cheat to defeat us, but we didn't give up. Eventually it led to a guildwar between us and an elf-only guild (Elven Royal Guard) that allied itself with shorts/humans. Was one of the most epic and buggy things to occur in an MMO, I'm sure [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The softcoded teams really allowed for some crazy and unique experiences, and I'm so glad I got to experience them. Softcoded teams applied here would just result in FFA pvp, but with %r hotkeys.

Hardcoded teams eliminate all of the problems you're talking about, and they're what's really needed on our server.
