Vivec NA Ruined (queue)

- nothing against get all the map all the time, but the current campaign at Vivec is ridiculous in terms of queue balance.

Many are leaving the server. To EP friends, congratulations for ruining a campaign (and the server) with your 24 hours online zerg :P . DC friends, who worked hard to help their fellow EPs, congratulations as well (buuu).

:/

    If the situation persists for a length of time after Summerset drops, then I'll consider whether or not the sky is falling.

    As it is, we're about 2 weeks out from the new Chapter, I'm not terribly surprised to see fluctuations in the PVP population.

    I assure you, EP and DC are not working together. Shake off the tunnel vision and realize that we are all fighting a war on two fronts. You view everything through the lens of "what happens to AD" and are missing the big picture.

    Title reedited

    Why? Bcause its a irony with a litle true toutch, but nothing against Emperor title (no google). :) Because it is more of an irony than a harsh truth. My English is not good, I'm afraid it's misunderstood. I use google translate, which causes a lot of words and phrases to have a different meaning than the intention (google).

    I do not know about you, but I, in particular, prefer a fierce campaign, with a closed score, than a completely disproportionate campaign. In a tight campaign, everything becomes important. At present, outside or with the exception of certain times, nothing is important, people simply leave the server.

    The campaigns have rarely been competitive.

    There have been some marginal exceptions, where a hero has appeared that the faction deserves. However the trash still piles up for collection and those potatoes are not going to farm themselves.

    If I was a relatively new AD player and was curious about PvP, I wouldn't even bother because of all the OP's threads.

    AD zonechat is actually pretty funny and entertaining, I recommend it to anyone.

    It’s like, everyone there is so used to the insurmountable zerging masses of blue and red, coupled with the low campaign score that nobody cares anymore. They just have fun fighting and taking back home keeps.

    - last campaign, when AD won with a closed score, was competitive.

    I don't particularly like it, but people are free to play as they wish. It's not a big deal.

    They also didn't defend the EP Emp, they took back keeps off EP and were a constant thorn for a couple of hours before the dethrone.

    We actually didn't take any back keeps :)

    Arrius DC were sieging, Farragut EP had sieged it and took it just before we arrived.
    We took bleakers and sieged chal a few times to pull some fights.

    Or do you want to have integrity when you feel like it, not all the time?

    Lol think we need several more months before we can make that claim. Not sure the OP was around then to truly know the death of a campaign.

    Just ride it out things will change they always do.

    what defines this as fine or not, or makes it a matter of integrity? Are our actions harmful to EPs score? No EP is still 3k ahead, are our actions harmful to AD's score? no AD is still 6k behind.

    The only difference was whether we had fun and potentially whether others had fun. Which in a game is going to happen anyway :)

    EP is gonna win this campaign regardless. What's the problem and why does it even matter?

    Ok, you're right. We better hop back over and continue the glade/warden/rayles roof farms. That's a much better situation for DC.

    Because the state of the campaign right now suggests integrity....

    EP has been 3 bars to locked 24/ 7 for the past week. A guild or 2 foregoing their usual colour for the sake of some action here or there is a good thing, not a bad.[/quote]

    So it's ok to get several thousand points ahead with this skew of guilds so that a campaign is won, but then at the end you can try to even it up? Says it all really.

    It has nothing to do with scoreboard dude. Playing on EP is boring AF right now.

    If they dont complain about it.....good for them.
    I guess a guild that is just after 'fights' perhaps wouldn't have the best perspective on what is healthy.

    I like that you guys tried to help DC in some ways by attacking our back keeps and yet they're still not happy lol.
