I'm sorry but how is it rude to...play the game the way the devs intend? Cyro isn't strictly reserved for PvPers only, and while there are indeed numerous campaigns, we all paid for the game and no one has more right to any one of them than anyone else does.SidraWillowsky wrote: »Plus it's just kind of rude to take up a spot in the main PvP campaign when you're essentially just going in there to do PvE stuff.
I'm 90% a PvE-er and unless I want to actually PvP, I go into one of the other campaigns.

Because it's the neighborly thing to do. This server happens to be the *big*, focused pvp server. There will undoubtedly be a vast array of servers to choose from. If your experience would be the same in any of them, but you stand to worsen the experience of those in one server, what would be the kind thing to do?
It's not inconsiderate though, because there shouldn't be a divide between players like this. It shouldn't be PvPers have x or y campaign and everyone else get the others because ZOS has this event for ALL players of the game to take part in it. And since everyone there is able to be killed and you can still get your AP, how is it rude? How is it taking spots? It's not like you only get AP for killing dedicated PvPers and no one else.oXI_Viper_IXo wrote: »I'm sorry but how is it rude to...play the game the way the devs intend?

That's like saying why not queue up to a vet DLC dungeon as a fake tank?
Can you? Absolutely. Should you? No, because it's inconsiderate.
My guild really don't like killing questers, and we try to avoid it but its hard to tell the difference between you and a hardcore solo player so you will most likely be targeted.

So you're saying I should gather large groups of PvE players to join Gray Host over the next couple weekends? See you there!
Because people tend to forget ZOS does introduce several temporary campaigns specifically for MYM, and even the "less busy" ones can end up poplocked and require you to queue. People act like PvEers are pushing out PvPers with this event but it's not like it's a mass flood of 90% PvEers, and people wanting to PvP can't find a group because no one's there for actual PvP. The fact that several campaigns end up poplocked alone means there are PLENTY of people to group with.SidraWillowsky wrote: »I'm sorry but how is it rude to...play the game the way the devs intend?

It's not, but when you go in there to do PvE-style quests it likely means that someone who actually wants to PvP has to wait longer. If a campaign is pop-locked and it's the most popular campaign for legit PvPers, who go there if there are other campaigns not at full capacity? IMO it's the considerate thing to do when the wait times are already long. It doesn't matter much to me which campaign I'm going to if I'm just questing (I stick to CP campaigns but that's really the end of my preferences), so why go into the one where people actually want to PvP in the PvP zone?

Also, let's not forget people like myself. I'm a PvEer who almost never PvPs outside of MYM, but I don't do it just for tickets. I also do it for the double AP so I can use it to get certain chars their stuff like Vigor, and to earn AP to buy stuff like Motif chapters with. A lot of other PvEers do the same, so while there are a good number there only to get tickets and get out, a lot of us are actually staying and doing a bit of PvP to get AP and stuff, and we group up just as well as the people who PvP regularly.
I remember that a couple years ago most of the campaigns were poplocked, including the temp ones that were made, so it was hard to avoid the ones that were since it was mostly all of them haha. And the ones that weren't poplocked were really busy too. It was nuts, and honestly, we're all probably going to be suffering together whether we're just there for dailies or the whole shebang. What with how Cyro has been lately, I'm not holding my breath that MYM will go anywhere near smoothly this year.SidraWillowsky wrote: »Because people tend to forget ZOS does introduce several temporary campaigns specifically for MYM, and even the "less busy" ones can end up poplocked and require you to queue.

Oh yeah, if you are going into a campaign with the intention of PvPing at some point, I don't care where you go. I did not mean for my post to come off as me saying that PvEers in general shouldn't go to a campaign if they're interested in PvPing. Maybe that's the source of the frustration here. I'm referring only to people who want to get in and get their dailies done without having to PvP if possible. In that case I think it's generally the considerate thing to do to go to an emptier or event "overflow" campaign. And I think that people like that would generally avoid the pop-locked campaigns in general, but you never know.
Go hog wild if you're going into a campaign to fight people, be it during quests or not. I enjoy putting on my PvE-est of the PvE titles (hello Saviour of Morrowind) and killing the gankers or building campers in the towns. Or whatever. I shouldn't have said "legit PvPers", I really meant that more as "anyone queueing who is interested in PvPing in some form"
