    I'm stuck at work for two and a half more hours and missing all the fun. I just hope tonight is not a repeat of last night by the time I get to login.

    Well it was a good night for EP. Two running guilds and great group support. Painted that map red and got some scrolls and an emp, even with ad having locked pop at one point. Coordination works wonders. :)

    Kinda makes you wish Zenimax provided some way of keeping an eye on Cyrodiil outside of the game. Esostats is only as accurate as its last update.

    Most guilds im in left thornblade after the campain ended. On the DC side EG have left. Everyone poored so much time into thorn and most people were lucky to get 6k reward. What was the point in a 30 day campain if u dont get a large reward when it finished. I was on when the server reset and everyone was complaining about the terrible cash reward

    It was disapointing indeed!

    Who cares about rewards ? I play to get APs and to win the campaign for the pact, for my guild. If I want gold, I will just sell the 1500 pvp rewards and get a straight 15k gold.. easy

    Yeah last 2 night are crazy good for EP. dunno what happened. (hello 14-days campaign newcomers!?)

    But we steamrolled a lot. And even when outnumbered (AD capped, 1 bar EP, 2 bar DC), we put up crazy good defenses with 2 very coordinated raids and a couple other smaller groups.

    It was a good night in EP. Let's see how AD going to take it, or they're just going to wuss out to smaller campaigns now.

    I mean, who cares about some money or AP rewards. It's about WINNING IT. For your alliance. Beside, Zen already said they're monitoring this and will be adjusting it with time.

    Relax people.

    Looks like there's a lot of yellow on the map again according to esostats.com. 3 Bars of AD vs 1/1 of EP/DC. Guess we'll see when primetime hits.

    Well the quality of the AD on Thornblade sure took a nosedive.....but you know
    what they say....."Where strategy fails the zerg prevails!"

    I guess I announced my departure to Chillrend prematurely....this stupid game bugged when I tried to change my guest campaign and because my home campaign timer was active it didn't switch yet it reset my guest timer! I remember hearing about that bug back in early Volendrung days....I don't know why I'd think it was fixed after 4 months and being 100% reproduceable.

    **I am not blaming anyone below. Play how you like, when you like! Just stating the obvious.**

    Stick a fork in it already! Who from North American time zone is going to want to play here anymore with the overwhelming late night and daytime presence of AD?

    Locked pop vs 1 bar is demoralizing and will lead to more and more people quitting or moving to a different campaign.

    I wish there were only 2 campaigns, 1 non-vet, 1 vet or some type of population balance for current servers.

    The best times for me in pvp have been when Wabbajack was always triple pop locked and the scores were all close. The first half of Thornblade 1.0 was also much like this, but it was a handful of guilds that played almost around the clock that kept it close for the non-ad factions.

    A game with enormous pvp potential that is extreamly slow at adressing pvp issues... There are game breaking issues in pvp but the snail pace reaction is beyond crazy... The most blaring was 2 weeks of almost unplayable pvp that ran off probally 20 to 30 percent of the active pvp population ... It took almost 3 weeks to correct batswarm vamps... vamps able to solo 40+ players godlike abilities... current issues to many to name... Most glaring to me is incrediable amount of server lag created by ball groups.... PvP population see's in every patch the lack of attention to pvp fixes...

    stay, grow a pair, and fight back

    in all honesty it depends upon what you are looking for - regardless of which faction you are in, there will always be some folks who relish the challenge of the underdog role, and some folks who hate it

    the ease with which it is possible flip from one campaign to another helps folks move from a situation they dislike to one that they do

    Didn't No Mercy, Alacrity, EG and every other strong DC/AD guild go to Chillrend, where EP had 0 keeps last time I logged?

    No quite everyone. Vokundein stuck it out as the other EP guilds went to Chillrend. But, toward the last half of the campaign we seemed to be the only organized EP group running most nights we raided.

    Vouch'd. I am not in Vokundein but see them fighting the good fight and not moving campaigns. Props.

    At 11:15 PM Eastern tonight, the queue for EP for 86 deep and it took a little over 15 minutes to enter the Thornblade NA campaign. EP was only at two bars on Chillrend at the time.

    Thank you for the kind words, we will not abandon EP even when it seems like the odds are totally stacked against us.

    Much thanks to Hijinx. Glad to see we could turn this beast around. Only a matter of time before everyone comes back from DC and AD.

    I honestly don't know what the solution to this problem is but ZOS needs to implement one and quick. Maybe they need to implement some sort of population locks.

    How about players man up and finally admit that both the massive overpopulation of Thornblade after the campaign revamp as well as the factions taking turns in completely dominating the map are 100% player made and not Zenimax' fault ?

    We can work from there...
