Honestly, I think one major issue that keeps being overlooked in these discussions is the particular social atmosphere of Lordaeron itself. After spending years here on and off, I’ve come to believe that this realm has a disproportionately high number of players who are socially frustrated, possibly bored, and who have way too much time on their hands — a dangerous mix when combined with anonymity and zero consequences.
When you put all of that together, you get guilds like "AS" (which originally stood for Autistic Superpower and was eventually banned for violating server guidelines). They’re just one example, but they illustrate a broader pattern: people looking to project their personal bitterness into the game — and Lordaeron, with its slow progression and lack of gear buying, gives them the perfect arena to do that.
If you play on Lordaeron in 2025, you have to understand this reality:
The real challenge is not the buffed ICC or the limited population — it’s staying morally sane in an increasingly toxic environment.
If you let yourself get dragged into the cycle of griefing, revenge, and general hostility, you become part of the same system that’s pushing good players away.
That’s why I believe more than ever in sticking with players and guilds who value fairness, community, and actual gameplay over nonsense. It might take longer to find them, but they do exist — and they’re the reason some of us still haven’t given up on this realm.
The solution isn’t just system-level moderation (though that’s needed too). The solution starts with players actively choosing not to sink to the level of people who camp graveyards all day because they have nothing better to do with their lives.
Stay decent. Stay sharp. And stay above the noise.

I love the system Lineage,
You can kill low levels , But your name got a red flag chance by numbers of kills (soft red to dark red ) Debuff called Karma , if some one kill you because your red flag name, can loot your items/money or another things if defeat you on PvP,
if you kill in your range -5, +5 nothing happens, only honor.

-- to remove the red flag you need kill mobs a lot, or make another good action on server to turn a white name again.

Soon all reasonable people will leave the server, only these brainless killers of small levels will remain.

This is exactly how it works on retail, yet what you say never happened there.
Our servers have also been like this for years and years, and remain the most populated.
What is "soon"?
