True as well. But I am just saying that the OP is leaving out details. There might have been some name calling in there too. Don't really know. but yea, they needed to deal with one threat first before going after the other threat (world boss). Also, when you die, you know how to come back instantly right? Maybe they were doing just that too and that's what the warning was for.

this is just ridiculous. They got warned cos they PvP on PvP server? And they dont even kill the world boss, which would be much worse, because of 24 hour respawn.

***?

open world PvP is so pathetic in this game it's not even funny and now this? The game is going down every day faster and faster.

I completely agree on this.

But i still think 2 people bursting a tank when hes low hp is not PvP.

I would be fine with it if they couldnt just res up in 30 seconds and do it again. PVP should force you to res in the med center. <- Period.

Spawn camping is camping the spawn - i.e. the medcenter which you just told me to rez at.

So the place where I died and the medcenter are the same place.

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.
How many times do you have to touch a hot stove before you don't do it again. They should have learned that the boss wasn't meant to go down that night and moved on to something else.

Ok it was stupidly written, but my point is actually in the 2nd sentence:
--

Actually, on PvP servers only, they should add a system in place where you can only rez in the main city and no where else. Make it cost you more money to take a speeder (flying dolphin) back to your quest area. It would also solve the world boss issue too. Wipe out the offending team and continue, rather than wipe out the offending team only to have them be back in 30 seconds again while you are engaged. SWG was the best. Send everyoen to the cloner.

because you cannot think for yourself, using the rez options you ll get away from the medcent by ahving stealth for 12 SECONDS and if you die again just w8 1 min to get yet another 12 seconds.... apparently you are not able to do that so i need to tell you waht to do

Yes, this is what i'm missing.

Back in Everquest the GMs made sure you wouldnt enter the same zone again for 1 hour when you were killed in PvP, you were only allowed to pick up your stuff and go somewhere else.

If you couldnt level up elsewhere, you pretty much had to log off
