Sounds like a bunch of ******** to me.

If you don't want to PVP and be harassed in the OPEN WORLD, don't go on a PLAYER-VERSUS-PLAYER server.

That's the exact distinction between a PVE and a PVP server. PVE is for those who want to choose when to PVP when they are questing our just running around, PVP is for those who want it all the time.

This happened all the time when I played WoW when it first came out on PVP servers - Blizzard did nothing, rightfully so. The faction who eventually killed the world boss demon in Blasted Lands was the one who had won the fight and driven off the other faction.

If you do not like it, you can always go play one of the (many) successful hard core pvp ga..

o wait.
Because the lead dev's haven't consistently been telling us for weeks that this is OUR GAME and we should be able to play it how we want? Because I can't think up least a dozen epic fails on the part of low level GM's and forum moderators that made clear and epic level mistakes and had to be corrected...

But here, he openly said they weren't going for the world boss. Just kept tagging it to prevent the others from getting the kill on it.

So what I am guessing is:

The Republic team gets wiped while fighting, they come back to attempt again. As they go in, the Imperials tag the world boss first and the Republic team runs off to reset it (or whatever) they get wiped. Rinse and repeat. Sounds like harassment to you? Does to me. I am betting this is what happened and the OP is not telling the whole truth. Then they get a warning for just tagging a boss to prevent the other team from doing it. notice how he said after awhile they all left. No intention to kill it, just to harass. Now if the Republic team was smart they'd get more people to help wipe them out over and over. But whatever.

On the other hand, "No intention to pve, just pvp" would be equally accurate.

Old signature deemed inappropriate due to too much truth. This better BW?

It doesn't matter if they kept tagging it to deny it to them - they don't want them getting an advantage over them.

Like, seriously, its a PVP server. If you don't want to PVP, don't roll a character on a PVP server. This can't happen on a PVE server, so go on one.

If the Republic couldn't kill the Empire players WHILE they had the world boss on them as well, then they don't deserve to kill the world boss on a PVP server.

Kill the players, then kill the world boss.

"exploiting mechanics" is exploiting (presumably) which will also be against the rules.

Farming lowbies however I see no problem with (game-rule wise, not morally).
How is spawn camping unacceptable, when you are killed you have the option of reviving there or at the med center. If you don't want to get ganked again you have the choice of spawning in a new safe location away from the mean ol'pvper.

even if it was like that its perfectly acceptable behavior on a pvp server. thats the fun part about pvp servers uc? can take great pleasure in pissing off bad pvers. i just wish u could loot them aswell. would make the whinefest complete and i could feast on their tears. mmmm delicious tears. more plix
