yes, so much pvp..
Running around Silvermoon EU's Timeless Isle with Blood Coins buff, no-one dared attack me on my badly geared frost mage... I mean I was practically a free kill and flagged for factionless PvP.

I never distinguished between PVP and PVE server. I was referring exclusively to PvP server, which is what we have. And in retail same thing happens, there are multiple threads of people complaining about being harassed and demanding for some kind of dishonorable kill system. AND they do have an option for PvE server. That option doesn't exist here and, let's be realistic, will never be. Never have I came across a private PvE server to be honest.
I don't harass low level players, sometimes I do get mad when it happens to me but didn't stop me from getting to 90 twice in the month I've spent here. Hyjal tends to be the most problematic area personally, but complaining that leveling up is not possible is just a sorrow excuse really.
PVE servers are also part of the game so lets do one thing shall we? Since you are all PvP fan boys, you are not allowed to quest and raid and gain rep, since that's like a OMG PvE thing. We would not want to see you doing PvE stuff right you big macho guy.
Ignorance is a bliss they say, yet this comment takes the cake. I really wonder how a lvl 60 lowbie is the cause for himself to get killed over and over again! ROFL, did you even think before you typed this out?
Would you rape a woman just because she has walked out of her house? Fair thing for me to say as well right?
Fixed it for you. Warmane should not get new players! At least I think so since the staff refuse to address this.
Fixed.
Good for you kind sir! I'm sure you're gonna help each and every person that has a ganking issue!
Aww isnt this cute, we do know the reason you are here yourself! Or are we wrong? The plot thickens!
Well said! At least someone understands that more content = less time for lowbie ganks. Hopefully the rest of your comments have some intellectual capacity.
Nope unfortunately your stoke of genius expired here. If you have to win with this kinda of fact, then give people the option of a PVE realm as well! Its not fair at all that people who only want to PvE have to put up with this ****.
Speaking for everyone now are we? Didnt know that enabling your pvp flag, broke all your fingers! yikes!
Didnt know we were playing world of lowbie gank craft either!
Knowing how stubborn blizzard is, I'm sure they have good reason to have PvE realms as well.
Yup sure it does! Lets all go around killing lowbies since it adds to the roleplaying element! And while we're at it, lets make cinematics as well, so we can show what actually happens on PvP realms!
Just write on global and usually someone will come, if nobody comes - logout on 15-20 minutes and do something irl and come back. You can also just go to some other questing hub (Near that Armory).
I guess it's your first character, so you want to get it to level 90 as soon as possible, but still, you can't do much against these things.
And all that talk about PvE server, the thing is, Warmane can barely fill the servers they have so I doubt opening a new one and dividing community is a smart idea at this moment.
You are kind of off topic there...
I leveled 3 chars here and RARELY had any ganking problem so the issue may come from you. Learn to avoid being ganked. Part of the game too.
In fact MOP was the most friendly realm i've ever leveled in, players of the opposite faction mostly ignoring you and even trying to help you from time to time!
I think this is partly due to the cross faction talking. I hope they never remove this feature even if its not fu**in blizzlike.
Ally tend to do that at Thralmar every day, go in bgs dont just kill low players.
Funny. Most Wow players on retail prefer the PvE, and thats not an estimate, thats what the usage charts show. And PvP realms is NOT the way it is meant to be played. It is meant to be played both PvP realms and PvE realms. Stop and think about the ignorance of your statement and look at what retail servers are, which is, by definition, how the game is meant to be played. That's like saying, I have only 1 arm, and thats the way people were meant to be designed. Blizzard decides how the game is meant to be played, and they have.
Now, all idiocy asside, the best PvP and the most adept PvPers (like the ones you call friendcraft players), play on PvE servers once they realize that the best PvP is there. On other MMOs like SWTOR there is a strong battle ground/PvP presence in lower and mid levels, and many argue the best bgs are in the lower levels. On WOW especially low population private servers there is really no PvP until top level. Players level up, either rage quitting or ignoring the ganking until max level then start doing BGs. Simply delaying them or rage quitting them just reduces our BG numbers, and our overall server population. As far as I can tell if that were the goal, that would be the only reason to leave it as it is. Its not like the level 50 player is participating in world PvP when he is killed, and they only time he participates is if another low level is questing in the same area as him. A mild skirmish may happen for a second.
PvE server people are ready every time they fight, PvP intelligence goes way up, and true PvPers are seperated from posers. That's where it is at.
I get that you would like to play in a PvE realm. Nonetheless, you don't need to aid your argument with lies. Let me break this down for you.
Proof?
This is the most confusing bit of your post. You say yourself "It is meant to be played both PvP realms and PvE realms." but then say "And PvP realms is NOT the way it is meant to be played." Umm, okay.
This is just a flat out lie. I will prove to you exactly how wrong you are.
Current 3v3 EU arena ladder
The top realms:
Ravencrest
Aegwynn
Sylvanas
Outland
Note how all of these are PvP realms?
But wait, maybe its just a European thing, I'm sorry, let me check North America.
Current 3v3 NA arena ladder
The top realms:
The famous Tichondrius
Darkspear
Bleeding Hollow
I don't want to bother going through the rest of the list (as expected, 75% is Tichondrius anyways)
In light of the above, the rest of your post is hilarious indeed. I'll leave it here so you remember to double check your facts before posting nonsense.
I lol'd. You've never played retail obviously.Quote:
You are wrong. This doesn't happen at all on retail.
Seriously though. Here is a tip that will help you with lowbie gankers.
Step 1: Type the following:
/join global
"Hey, there are a bunch of noobs ganking level 60s in Thrallmar/Honor Hold. They are x class and have y amount of HP and are saying you're all afraid to come and fight them."
Wait 45 seconds. Repeat.
Chances are extremely high you will get at LEAST one person who is already on their way to utterly destroy them. If that is not enough, continue step 1. More will come. I've seen results vary tremendously here. More often than not, the annoying aspie kid who is ganking you and your peers will end up being the one who gets camped. He will then cry like a *****, moan about how unfair it is that people with better gear are camping him, then log out.
@mods, please just close this thread, its becoming nothing but a flame fest, I'm guilty as well.
Its not leading to anything concrete right now.
Yes they are part of the game.... BUT you willingly join a private PvP server (you cant say you would have joined a PvE server because here and now YOU'RE ON WARMANE) ... so now all of your comments and nonchalant sarcasm are wasted..... Yes in a PvE Server you wouldn't be ganked... But private PvE servers are rare like a uni-possum (unicorn+opossum).
onto do i approve of ganking.... no i dont it's sad and pathetic... YAY your 500k hp pala can 1shot my 9k mage ...WOO HOO FOR YOU. With that being said i have leveled 1-90 at least 15 different toons since the great Moltdown of Jan. 2015. (keyword leveled not insta-90)... getting ganked sucks but if you keep rezzing while getting camped IT IS YOUR OWN STUPIDITY for rezzing.
Its funny when XxNeverrightxX tries to refute something, shows his intelligence (or lack there of I guess). He likes to argue but arguing with him is like arguing with a tree stump.
Proof? Blizzard has always maintained PvE is more popular. It varies between 55-65% of players depending on the expansion. Currently US servers favor more than EU, but it averages out to around 53% PvE last time I checked.

Try reading what I say before replying to it saying you do not understand it. It really makes you look bad. When I say Its not meant to be PvP, but PvP AND PvE please notice the AND in the statement. Grab a dictionary and look up the meaning of AND. Tell you what, I'll help you out, since I'm generous. It means (exactly what it says) that Wow by definition has always given players the option to be PvE or a PvP server (hence this is why they offer BOTH). Slow down, go back and read it a few times, don't worry, you'll get it eventually.
I've played on 7 different servers and paid for 2 subscriptions simultaneously for 8 years on retail (this way I could play 2 accts and my brother could play one when we play together). I've been on big population servers, and smaller ones, I've also played on 6 different private servers (which will remain nameless due to forum rules, but if you want names PM me). So I've seen it all, and what I do on all servers is PvP, and its always been the best on PvE servers. I've never done much PvE. I offer my perspective to help advance the discussion. And you should be glad I do not just sit around and pick apart your contributions instead.... But its funny watching you try arguing instead of contributing
Now, post if you have something to add to the discussion next time, we already know you like the low intelligence PvP experience, lets say your vote has been registered.
There is no choice here genius! You can only say "willingly" when you have a choice. Otherwise its a term called "forced", go read it up if you never heard of it.
The pro PvP players can have this stupid argument, since its obvious we're wasting our breath. I can only imagine the debate if it was a PvE server rather than a PvP one, but whatever it is a game after all, I will not allow it to play with my emotions anymore. This is the reason why I quit before and probably the same reason I will quit now and not because its a PvP server, but because of all the ******s on it.
I am quite done with this topic, its obvious that the admins do not care for such pity issues and will not even address it, it is Blizz like after all. Till then stay happy and gank more lowbies, since that's what most of the server is fit for anyway.
Till then I really do hope Warmane does not grow in population! Perhaps then they would understand the plight of PvE players.
Arguing whether or not it's part of the game is pointless. The bottom line is: GMs aren't going to stop people from doing it, nor are the server developers-- neither on here or on retail.
People are stupid and do annoying things like gank lowbies or beg for gold in Stormwind or dig up every mining node on the map leaving only garbage in them. The only way to realistically stop people from doing these things is to close the server.
Since that is the case, the OP and others being ganked should be focusing more on what they are going to do about it instead of expecting other players to collectively stop repeating the behavior that is causing their problem.
But ganking is fun. Why are you mad, people?
