What of those is hard to do? 1-55 is the most time consuming. Crew Skills, Companion Affection, and Datacron Hunt can be done in a couple of days easily. Obtaining credits will be easy once you get to level 55. You can easily get 500,000 to 1 million credits just by doing a few hours of dailies each day.

That said, you're right, it takes a lot of motivation to move away from a place in which you've already achieved this. However, cross-server queues are apparently impossible with the current SWTOR game engine and I don't see myself sitting around wasting anymore time with the same ol' same ol' BS that's been going on with TEH's PvP scene. Especially after reading this thread and hearing people's expectations for PvP (even ranked) to be more of a casual experience. I'll pass on all of that.

It's ironic that the people who are complaining about PvPers leaving are also the people that complain about leaving War Zones, Queue Dodging, and all of the other things that some of the higher end PvP guilds do to make themselves better on TEH. I'm convinced that aside from the people on TEH being cool (and I really do mean that, there really isn't a single person that I can't stand on the server), the RP has been mediocre at best, PvP has been a *********** chore, and PvE is faceroll easy. Why should I stick around? I mean, if not wanting to level and grind again is my only reason for not leaving a server where my end-game goals cannot and will not be accomplished then I might as well just stop playing the game...

This is golden. Occasionally I have trouble explaining why I'm not in a PvP guild and this quote is going to save me so much trouble in the future.

If ragequitting and avoiding more capable guilds is how you are planning to compete on a PvP server, you should save yourself the disappointment.

I don't see very much of this at all on TEH. Is this really happening?

It was the trend a few months ago, I'm sure there was a thread about it as well. But I didn't see anyone coming up with a reason or justification for it.

So... wait. I'm supposed to ragequit whenever I see certain guild names in red?


....I so need to check my memos more often.
Stevano - Scoundrel, Nidaelle - Sentinel, Tyranna - Marauder, Zaccaren - Sniper
And 14 other alts because I'm a serious altaholic.
The Torchbearer Legacy - <Stormwatch>

Some say it's lame because they're just going to faceroll the PUGs they're about to face. Flip the coin over though and you'll see that they're developing their eight-man team to get better and honing in their skills as a single unit.

I was on Pot5 today and as soon as we capped both of the outside nodes in a Civil War, half of the enemy team left because they knew they'd made a mistake. This is how competitive "some" of the players on Prophecy of the Five are. We can all debate about whether or not leaving is right or whether or not staying could've turned the game back around, but what is shocking is that the players on Pot5 are super intense and were obviously so embarrassed with their mistake that they just left the War Zone.

The fact that everyone has to come to terms with is the harsh reality that ranked isn't going to exist on TEH. If you don't care that much about running ranked then that's fine, kudos to you. But I do and so do some of my friends, so we're leveling on Pot5 because we want to participate in end-game PvP. On Pot5 anything goes and there are no "rules" or "codes of conduct" that the players follow. They will do whatever they feel is necessary to make themselves better and/or prevent themselves from wasting time when they know they've made a mistake.

I'm not trying to upset anyone, just stating my opinion on the status of TEH and how this thread in general has made me feel about PvP on TEH.

Did they leave because they made a mistake, or ragequit?

I wish you guys luck Sin, but you couldn't pay me money to move to POT5.

The more I hear about PTO5, the less inclined I am to transfer....

*Waves hand* That is not the server you're looking for.
