Since when was I putting them down? All i'm just saying is, if they don't like it- leave.
I'm not saying its the whole reason this merge is happening. Spacecats even went out and said our servers population is quite high and even compares to TR. I don't believe it in terms of server activity being the same, but I do believe the same amount of people play whether AFK or not. The ones who whined were HW's PvE community that basically had to search far and wide to get people to run things even remotely hard. HW was not the reason LoT and VoT died, the free transfers to MT were and if HW never existed players who opted for PvE servers would NEVER have chosen LoT/VoT anyway. Great logic.
The only one ignorant here is you, especially when your response is hiding behind calling another person ignorant continuously and continuing to respond to HW server threads and acting like its affecting your whole family. Get a brain and ignore these threads if you have nothing constructive to say because frankly, you're embarrassing to both read and respond to.
god bless u
It's a pvp server. If they seriously don't like it, there's a magical thing called the free server transfers to AV.
lot and vot also are pvp server, now look what they are now, suggesting people to leave fey forest is not what i call a good incentive argument
There are hackers in Tera? Then again it is Aion which is published by the makers of BnS. Nothing much you can expect.
Tera is hack proof for the sole reason that it is so easy to get caught if you do eventually break the code.
The threads back and forth have only demonstrated that no matter what info there is, people will still have this huge misconception about what's going to happen, even though nothing has happened yet and in reality everyone can only assume at this point.
Guess all I can do is keep calling to reason and to advice people to calm down and not jump the river before reaching it's shore.
This is the quote that makes all the difference to the discussion tbh.
I will start by explaining that the PvE/Casual community in VoT and LoT are similar to what Highwatch already has. If anything MT took all the PvErs away already anyway. If you feel it is bad, then I am afraid that you won't have fun even if you transfer to AV.
The huge difference lies in the PvP community, which in Highwatch a large number moved because you get guilds who feed gvg wins and rating in Cutthroat just to get Skycastle. I am not too sure about the remaining community but I am very sure Highwatch's pvp community will get along pretty well with the others considering most of the pvp community too once came from a pvp server.
OWPvPers are few and far between, so I can't really explain for them. But because they are few and far between you can see how unlikely you will get killed (Unless idiots from Highwatch decide to be a joker and turn red).
Highwatch has more casual players than CH from what I recall. Most of them can't really coordinate in CS, which is the only battleground they do back then, and there is a large number that needs to overgear themselves to clear content. When a higher skilled playerbase joins them, I can only hope that the casuals of the other two servers can help Highwatch players out. And HOPEFULLY Highwatch can understand where they are coming from.
Having played on both sides of the coin, I think that is the best answer I can give.
TL;DR: Attitudes aren't really that much different except for the upper echelons.
Even if you are found you can probably kill that guy with your +15 :^)
I've done the PvP server thing, I originally moved to AV when f2p happened because I was tired of the attitudes. I moved off AV to HW for a chance at a fresh group of new PvE players to hang out with and I'd be happy to move back to AV (if I wasn't full on characters) if EME was willing to rebind all my costumes, pets, char slots, wardrobe slots, and mounts that I paid actual cash for, but I don't see that happening. Heck I'd be happy to stay on the new server if they were willing to rebind or reimburse me and they removed the limit on blockable people. The biggest issue I'm having with this merger is that yes I'm being forced to be on a PvP server unless I want to repurchase everything and leave behind a ton of gold and items. Free transfers are nice and all but it doesn't do anything for me if I'm leaving behind gold and items because of restrictions.
There's a pretty clear difference in attitudes. Admittedly I have no idea what HW's PvP community was like, since as a happy carebear, I don't participate in alliance, gvg, cs, 3v3, ect. but I was active in all of that back on MT and to an extent on AV as well. It sucks that the PvPers are the more vocal portion of this but it's not surprising. All the 'cry moar carebear.' 'I'll just come pk anyone that says they're unhappy' attitudes are what I was happy to be avoiding by being on a PvE server.
EME has made up their minds, how much of that was pressure from the higher ups is not something we'll ever know, so all the arguments are a moot point anyways; but if you never air your grievances change can never happen. It is what it is.
I'm old, I don't have the patience for the PvP crowd anymore. I just want to carebear in peace and unwisely spend my money on pretty things. The rational response was nice and unexpected though. Thanks for that
So anyway, all this just to say... it wasn't a decision made lightly or without at least trying to evaluate all the evidence, even though it was obvious people who avoided PvP on principle weren't going to like it.
How much of all of that combined was pushed to this timeframe by higher ups is something only they are going to know, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out that most of the push for the three servers to be combined together instead of finding a better solution for all three didn't come out of deadline coming from the higher ups.
lol so have fun with your future empty server as you do in lot or lot
so pls can you avoid to QQ in 2017 on how your futur server is empty after you asked people to leave fey forest ?
only mount tyranna do more pve than highwatch, say to me what lot and vot do or did ? except QQ than their server dying
my argument was than highwatch should be merged witrh a pve server and let your server dying together with other pvp server, it is highwatch i wish to be saved, i dont care if your server and the other pvp server sink
anyway have fun to convince people to leave fey forest
