Wait... How is kick ball ranked now?... Are you saying you ran premades in Hutt ball... LoL... How is that ranked when it's regs...
Kickball rated is forming an Ops group, having captains pick players. Like one would for kickball in school. Hence "kickball rated". Gives people who don't normally do 4s a chance to try. Basically just 3 dps and 1 heals.

Fair enough... We don't have kick ball at school in my days... I thought you meant Hutt Ball

Meanwhile what you don't see is half the team has already quit. So your punishing the players who stick it out but got stuck with a weak group. You guys get less overall stats, less playtime, your healer has nothing to do and you are creating a toxic atmosphere. I personally don't care its quick comms and I'm gearing this toon. But less people will que if you keep doing it and pop times for pubs start to get longer. All I'm saying is be considerate. Some of these players don't match up well, thats fine, but give them room to breathe at least. People are actually now checking to see if your guild is queing so they can leave the match before it even starts. That's not a good thing, because if the match starts with 5-6 players I'm going to leave as well.
As for spawn camping... All I can say is if people are stupid enough to be Lemmings or Sheep and keep jumping into the meat grinder, they deserve it...
I mean, how hard is it to go out the other respawn point?

In a Void star on defense they are actually sitting right at the exit point for attackers, not one guy like 5 of them and just globalling people. I'm stealth so I can get out, but for say a sniper there is no escape you have to move at some point or get booted from the match. Remember this is a match where players are rotating in and out of the match because they keep leaving and new ones entering. If you have no cc protection they will yank you down and global you. Its the equivalent of a 60 in full pvp gear ganking a level 25, there's no chance to fight back. This rarely happened on pot5, very rare, on Harb it happens in every other match for pubs. Its legal and hey do it if you want, but don't complain when you can't get any competitive matches because no one wants to play against you.

Perhaps you and I never linked up on Pot5 but it was much more prevalent there than it is here. Coincidentally, the same people doing it there are also doing it here.. so there's that.

hyperbole aside, I do think he has a point. faction balance does seem to be pretty heavily imp on every north american server that I know of. harbinger was the last of them that was pub dominated. I know JC used to be pub dominated. and it has a particularly suffocating effect in reg WZs.

the funny thing is that almost everyone worth a poop has mirror toons. but you rarely see them for w/e reason. I'm guilty of it too. I basically just get on the mando every day or two just for the daily and maybe pass some gear to a jugg or mara I never actually use. lol

Does anyone think this wasn't going on on Harby for years by one guild or another? It's nothing new just that it's now Imp side with an overwhelming advantage with the influx of the transfer. I'd say group up and fight back PUBS.

Fekzitvak : Shadow lvl 60
Na'zing: Sniper lvl??
Codger: Sentinel lvl 60
Nupreme: Vanguard lvl 60

Doesn't this describe 99% fo the guilds that premade in regs?
