Clock - you and several others did pvp honorably but it just takes a few bad apples to ruin the game for those that don't. If all pvprs played like you, we wouldn't have such distaste by a large part of the non pvp community. im sure you have had brushes with some of the bad apples or some that behave in gray areas. The old game rules allowed this to happen. Those are the folks you should blame or at least try to get changes that would discourage that type of behavior. I speak from experience as I was hit constantly by a player way back when I had no resources to protect myself. Never said a word and it wasn't for prestige or gold as I was hit constantly while I was in that players level range. Seems I'm not the only one with that type of negative experience.
you kept giving "excuses" against the "ladder" which did not make sense, even your last attempt was not against the ladder system but against the REWARDS, which I told you again did not make sense
when all things fail then there is always the "bully" card, this has worked wonders in the last 1,5 years, pvp updates were watering down pvp even more because of this
last time the "bully" card, you can call it the JOKER was used it almost destroyed pvp 6 months ago, the topic called BLOOD was created to remove xp loss from the game, majority was against it, many who were against it were "muted" and if it was not for hoofmaster stopping this nonesense, then it would have gone through
the BLOOD topic was driven because of "bully", the mighty JOKER card
during this time I lost 2 friends, after hoofmaster stopped this nonsense, I tried to get them back to the game but they refused and told me that it was only a matter of time before they try it again, sadly I lost 2 good friends and they were right
if xp loss was really the problem then the arena and gvg would have a very high activity but that is not the case but they are still insisting that xp loss is the cause, to me it does not make sense
rewards are the reason why the pvp season is that active, the rewards are too powerful, with such EPIC powerful rewards it is no wonder that there is activity
if the same rewards were given to the arena, gvg, ladder then you would have gotten more activity there too
I am tired of saying and repeating the obvious thing:
what has "value" and makes profit draws participation to the ladder, that is how every aspect of the game works, be it arena, gvg, pvp, titan hunting, SE hunting, ...
for me the pvp season is an excellent idea for a GLOBAL EVENT (pvp)
