On TEC Myself and three others killed off a group of 10 35-50 Imps trying to kill the Alderaan world boss (We were just filling up our healer's Codex), defeated them mid attempt, reset the boss and two manned the it while the other two finished off the respawning Imps.

Was it griefing? Not in the slightest. We all wanted the same thing, and we were stronger than them on the day and we took the objective.

If that's all true OP, I feel for you. It's a pretty BS call on BW's behalf if it is.

It should be perfectly fine to kill republic and deny them that boss. That is what a PVP server is.
vouch...if you're red you're dead..that simple on a pvp server there is no grief for killing people over and over again...regardless of the location and the level difference

It's a PVP SERVER Bioware. Are you sane ? PVP server IS ALL ABOUT KILLING FOLKS IN OTHER FACTION. This is why we roll on PVP SERVER.

If some players don't like this THEY SHOULD PLAY ON PVE SERVER.

If players got warning for killing people on PVP server then Bioware just hit the bottom as most pathetic MMORPG developer EVER.

Seriously. You release crap like DA II ****** Dragon Age series. You release ME 3 with ending that have NO SENSE AT ALL and it's an insult to fans. You LIE all the time (look at ME 3 promises - all LIES). You remove RPG elements from RPG. You BAN people for using INTERNET MEM like "I'm 12 and *** is this sh** ?". You release half done MMO. You create moral choices like "save the world" or "burn and eat babies" with no room for gray areas. You even create moral choices that have no sense "merciful kill is dark and tortures that will end up with horrible death is light side ?". Do you have SINGLE person there that use brain from time to time ?

And now you warn people for KILLING IN PVP SERVER that is all about KILLING PEOPLE. Do you EVEN KNOW what PVP means ? It's PLAYER VS PLAYER.

Seriously. Since you joined EA, you just more pathetic - day by day. I'm very sorry to say that but this is how I see it. Can't you return to your former self ? You know... when your games were good and you didn't do stupid things like that ???
REMEMBER: People in PVP don't hate you. They just want you dead :-)

Really love these types of threads, people who can't look things from any other way from their own perspective... If what OP says is true I think they earned those warnings...

Are you guys really that childish you look at things black and white? PvP servers are for pvp:ers only and PvE servers are for pve:s only? Yeah, why not take it one step further to satisfy your lust for "owwnzzzzingzzzz l33t world pvp" and remove all the mobs/creeps and pack all players on 1 island with no way of getting away from there until you hit level 10 and you level just by zerging each other for hours... Screw factions, they only limit your time for pvping your crave more you can choose one at level 50. Flashpoints? Nope, let's have it you get to a platform so you can knock each other down into oblivion while you level... Seriously this game keeps getting better and better! And when you finally hit 50 you ofc choose imperial side and play hutball and farm your battlemaster gear because then you can own those noobs...


... but what about the pve:s?

Give them mobs to farm so they can hope for drops, flashpoints and all that less interesting things like world bosses and stuff... Warzones? Nope, they only like pve why should they want to pvp? Haha so silly...

I think PvP's fun even if Bioware got no clue how to make a functioning PvP aspect for this game. (Incoming Kid-rage in at least 5 posts)

The first question that pops up in my head after reading OP's post and the rest of the first page is that you guys need to grow up. Of course you should be warned for ruining another 8-16 other peoples game experience Bioware (who calls the shots, Duh) invested time and money to make it so you could play it, but looking around on the forums it seems this Mmo community spends more time whining, crying and trying to start rebellions instead of enjoying it so again grow up. Let's say you own a Cake and Muffin café and this group of angry fat customers eating cake stands and block the way for another group of angry fat customers who wants those muffins but they can't because Group Fattiecakes is there ranting on how they are allowed to eat those cakes anywhere they want in the café because they sell cakes... You who can't see what's wrong with those warnings, you are Group Fattiecakes and I hope you see my point since you don't got exclusive rights on how to run the show, it's the _owner_ who pulls the shots your just the fuel to keep the engine running.

OP's situation happened long time ago and i'm wondering if similiar thing happened to any other guild on pvp server.

BW for warning OP and his mates for harssing should get the "biggest idiots of the year among game companies" reward (as well as for loads of other things, mostly concerning PvP), but the balem here is also on pathetic republic players who without any doubt reported OP and his mates.

Those people are in my opinion even worse than BW. They roll on a pvp server, get attacked by an opposing faction and then run to mum (BW) because they got slapped in a PvP fight on a PvP server. Ofc the crybabies are the ones who need mum's care, they are poor and got attacked by blood seeking, savage Imperials...

This is again a sign of times changing in MMO's. It happens that it is in SW:TOR, where all those things are visible the most. New trends, new player attitudes that were not so popular in previous years.
The "i wan't everything, i wan't it now and i wan't it for free or i will go rage on forums or quit" attitude or "i was killed so the player that killed me needs to be nerfed or he was hacking, go punish him NOW" is too visible in SW:TOR. Official forums are the best example.

Every class change (nerf) we had so far was because of bad players beeing not able to handle themselves in PvP which in result leads them to forums to cry that something is too OP, not that the player is actually bad and needs to learn to play.

The sad thing is that this will not change and will only get worse in future games because game companies will at all costs try to keep those crybabies calm and paying subs.

This makes me sad, having spent so many years in MMO's, in times when you actually had to do something to get gear or anything else and you wasn't handed everything by game company, because you couldn;t be bothered to actually try and get it...

Spoiled little carebears these days, geeze.

Like others have said, man up or don't go to the OPEN PVP servers with the big boys.

It is obvious most people don't have experience with real PvP, and don't know what they are getting into when they select the server.

When playing on Bioware's servers you abide by their definition of PVP or move along. You can ask them to change it of course, but telling them they do not understand how pvp works is silly, they know exactly how they want it to work on their servers, that is why their rules are as they are.

Pvp in this game is not a license to grief. If you are too immature to accept that go to a game that encourages it please.
