    Faction lock has proven to be more popular than not.

    It should just be a 24 hour lock, which would prevent the vast majority of abuse people are worried about.

    With vengeance coming and BR/RW being removed, this seems like a necessity more than a QOL improvement at this point.

    The most popular campaign is faction locked. Why would you remove the most popular style of pvp? I more logical idea would be to make more faction locked campaigns.

    Because it´s not popular because of the lock, it´s popular despite being locked. The 30 day main campaign has always been the most popular one even during times it´s not been locked.

    This.

    The only thing that determines which campaign is the most popular is the position on the list of campaigns.

    The first campaign listed has always been the most popular, regardless of ruleset. There was a patch where the No CP, non-alliance lock campaign was the first listed and it was consistently pop-locked.

    It's the same reason you see so many new players that have no clue how PvP works queueing into the 4v4 "competitive" mode; it's the first listed so it draws a lot of people.

    Tell them to make a 30 day unlocked for you then. But don't remove what we like.

    No-one is asking to completely remove faction locks, but reducing them to a more reasonable duration (24 hours) to allow players to play with friends without being forced to wait a month to do so while still keeping something that will deal with the issues that the locks were asked for in the first place.

    It's a more than reasonable compromise to ask for considering ZOS is already removing non-locked campaigns from the game for vengeance.
