Never again will I play one of those level up games. They consume you and steal your life. I've got a friend thats already played 254 hours ( xfire stats ) since xmas and he's married and has 4 kids. That should be a hint.

I'd rather play a game like AH2 or WW2Ol where you can jump right in and any level of skill can kill another player.

How are you liking the pvp server?  I couldnt stand the constant ganking and corpse camping.  Its the main reason I switched servers.  Originally there was supposed to be an honor system for killing so people would be hurt for ganking people 20 levels below them.  Blizzard did away with it.  I moved servers after they announced that.

Certain areas of the game were completely off limits do to the ganking, whole lots of content that you simply couldnt do.  Once you hit 20 it starts to suck.  Level 60s will camp just about every place you need to level just to gank you and then will camp your corpse and the spirit healer until you log off.

 I thought they are still going to put the honor system in at a later date? Or did they anouce they were never going to do it?


I read the boards a bit I would h ave thought the PVP crowd would be freaking more if it was anouced it was never going to be in.

huh mechanic? ya lost me on that one.


As to the honor system, they had a post not after launch that caused a huge uproar about it.  They changed it from an honor system to rewards.  Their reason was that people would pvp for rewards instead of ganking for no rewards.  Not understanding for a vast majority of people, griefing is their reward.  They do it to create havoc for other people.  We were lead to believe an honor system would be in the game, it was stated all throughout beta and even in the manual at purchase I believe, then once we started playing and had our characters to a decent level they changed the plan.  No big deal now I am back on another server that gives me the option to pvp when I want to and quest when I want to.

Funny thing is on my normal server I see more actual raids and planned pvp then I did on my pvp server.
