They probably lied/hyped it up complaining to get them introuble. That makes no sense, on a open world pvp server no less, the enemy should have the right to deny each other from stuff thats whats fun about a pvp server, and open world pvp.

Everything you have said about faction separation, I have made many a post about. THIS is the most MAJOR design of this game. Game breaking.

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.
Would you like for me to /wave before I attack?

This thread makes me laugh. If you don't like to die, DO NOT roll on a PvP server. I get ganked, gang ***** and facerolled on Ilum all the time while trying to collect armaments. Mostly because I roll in solo, trying to be sneaky. Do I cry for devs to protect me? Not only no but hell no! If you keep getting out numbered in open PvP, run, die or bring in a bigger gang. I don't call the devs, I call my guild and give it right back to them. PvE servers and RP are totally different. On a PvP server and on a designated PvP planet with open world PvP, prepare to die, die often and die well.

P.S. Dieing well means not QQing to devs about griefing.

"plink, plink" <--- my 2 cents

Unfortunately world pvp doesn't exist in games anymore.

To many people complain even when rolling on a PVP server that developers have started adding things to prevent people from pvping outside of designated areas.


It's a shame really, but this is the modern gamer attitude. God help us all.
Those who beg for mercy are too weak to deserve it.

Did your group proceed to slay the world boss?

....or were you just killing off the republic players so they could not?


On a PvP server this is fair enough.

In fact it's the very point of a PvP server..... it doesn't suddenly turn into a PvE server just because someone wants to kill a Boss.

A lot of people can't hack playing on a PvP server (and understandably so), but this isn't greifing, and hasn't been on any MMORPG PvP server I've ever played on.
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

When choosing a server, the message in the info box at the bottom clearly says that you might be attacked by other players and that it's not considered harrasment.

Case closed.

Or at least provide some way to tell if a player is in pve combat so pvpers can avoid "breaking the rules" by attacking them.


Attacking someone in PvE combat isn't greifing.

It's low IMO, but it's just life on a PvP server.

Maybe I should stop ganking people doing dailies on Ilum then.


If it really happened, then srsly, what a load of bs....
It doesn't feel, it doesn't think, it doesn't laugh or cry. All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die.

I had to read 10 pages of drivel before I even saw one post questioning if the OP isn't just making up some story... especially considering how implausible this whole situation is.

Get real. People on the internet are like mindless sheep.
