People seem to complain a lot about a crew (Dentists typically) jumping out in front there. All I can say is after actually being a part of that group on the last box, if they truly wanted to ruin the experience of pretty much everyone else it would have been done.

Due to the small group requirements for raiding, we'd pretty much hit a target until we had what we needed then leave it alone completely. There was no endless stream of recruits to gear up, so spending time raiding targets for marginal upgrades on a 3rd alt seemed like a gigantic waste of time.

In general, people will complain when they get steamrolled, but we never camped people or chain ruined xp groups etc. There was no need for a PNP over there it just sort of happened on its own. We'd actively attack groups of people in their home city where you have a huge disadvantage with high level guards who will buff and heal you, etc and had some pretty epic fights. Even if you lost it wasn't a 4 hour CR. In general I never saw any bind rushing bs, exploiting/bug abuse, hacking or even much shit talking.

People play on those servers for the express purpose of fighting each other. Engaging in activities that chase off the population of an already low population box is not something any of the veteran players of those servers are interested in doing.

you cant even bind rush anymore, it's hard coded now. If you die in pvp in a zone you can't return to it for 10 minutes.

But yeah we've never been about griefing people off these servers, I actually avoided pvp on my warrior for the first month because of the view people had of us.

That is a pretty cool feature.

People new to the dev/image servers will be pleasantly surprised how many features like this were added to make PVP an enjoyable experience instead of an excruciating one.
