Remove PvP Realm Status

Dude, you got a My Little Pony avatar. You're clearly a masochist

Since this is NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN, the best us PvE folks can do is bring up the topic and listen to jerks like OG call us names and tell us to learn2play. We're clearly gluttons for punishment already as we put up with both PvP and jerks just to get our Vanilla fix.

No you're not because PVE is as legitimate a form of play in an MMO as PVP is. Obviously if it wasn't Blizzard and many studios would never have offered it. Bottom line is some people love PVP and some people love PVE just like some people like hamburgers and others like chesseburgers. There's nothing wrong with either. Anyone who tells you "lol u loozer carebear pve lol lol go paly hello kitty" is an intolerant, closed-minded jackwagon deuchebag... pardon my French.

Hello everyone

I understand this forum is a suggestion, but people post stuff like this in a demanding way only leads to people conflict as reflected in the 6 pages of posters here.

I have address your one line

" PvP is a choice, and this server should reflect that."

The choice is already made by 6k players if they understand the server rules. The server was announced as a PVP server. coming to forums and demanding it be changed to something else seem counter productive.

I do not like PvP, BUT I MADE THAT CHOICE to play on a server with this set of rules.

the PVE masses speak make another server PVE! seriously guys they obviously do not have unlimited resources nor devs/GM so accept that this server is what is or just move on.

THIS IS A FREE SERVER DONT ACT ALL ENTITLED and be thankful we have such a high quality server to play on no matter if you do not like the rule sets.

Not every realm in Vanilla was PvP, and not everyone wants to play on a PvP server. Not everyone likes PvP and should not be subjected to it. It is a fault to presume that it is necessary. This is what battlegrounds, and self-flagging are for. I was surprised that this realm was PvP. This is becoming an issue and needs to be addressed. PvP has always been apart of WoW, but Blizzard never forced players to PvP if they didn't want to. There are other aspects to an MMO, and WoW is no exception. PvP is a choice, and this server should reflect that.

Even with PVP realm status, WoW is still a very PVE-focused game anyway.

I feel that PVP status should stay. It greatly strengthens World-PVP (the best kind), and makes the whole Alliance vs. Horde dynamic much more intense. I like the intensity of knowing that I'm not always safe, and my enemies are out there, and could attack me at any moment. It feels more... you know, massively multiplayer.

Any good MMO shouldn't be afraid to put you in challenging and dangerous situations. It's overcoming these challenges that builds a real sense of achievement and makes the game great.

This is simply a discussion with a request, nothing more. Lots of people are making their own requests for the server, and lots of people are either agreeing or disagreeing with them. This is no different. You're welcome to ask us to stop talking about this particular subject, and we're welcome to not oblige, if we so choose.

Obviously it's a hot topic, otherwise this thread would have died out days ago.

You seem like a perry level headed person and you points so far have been well spoken. I disagree with the "request" point of view and will go back to enjoying the server as is.

If at some point in the future developers decide to make another server PVE I will more than likely play that, but that is very BIG IF in my point of view.

Hunt well and enjoy the server both sides.

Thank you, you too Alquen

Exactly. There is no world pvp on a PVE realm. Leveling, while faster, is also more boring. It's the same issue with MMO's that use instances for everything - you don't feel like playing a Massively Multiplayer game when you can hardly ever see other players or interact with them. As annoying it is to get murdered or corpse camped, at least it keeps things exciting.

As for PVE always being part of MMO's, well, you guys don't know your history. Ultima Online, the first real MMO, was wholly PvP and when, after years of whining, they split the realms into PvP and PvE (though you could freely switch between the two), it led to a fairly swift decline of the game: PvE side was utterly overcrowded and with nothing to do, whereas PvP side was quite empty aside from the big battleground towns. And PvP in UO was far more punishing than in WoW because if you died, the other guy could loot all your items and gold.

absolutely not, i play here because it is a "blizzlike" PvP server

[Mdmadam]

It's a fact, I would not have said it if it wasn't. Also this would not be the most populated private server if most people liked PvE. Secondly, statistically speaking most private servers are PvP which only further indicates that that is what the general public wants. Finally, every PvE server I've seen is vastly less populated than most of the mediocre PvP servers.

Facts are not based on conjecture. Just a FYI.

Well done! You are correct, a conjecture is merely an opinion or theory. I was not giving you my opinion, although in most cases mine are usually a 110% fact, but was citing well known information that is easily available for research by anyone with the means.
