maybe you are right, maybe this server is so over populated and toxic that devs wants to cleanse it someway, and the world pvpers are doing a fine job preventing new players enjoying this server.
the only good thing about it is the pve raids once you reach 5.4k GS , everything else, regarding playability, on this server (and version) is a bad/not funny experience.
world pvpers are something really bad, if you want pvp go bg ,1v1 or wg. theres no excuse/reward to do world pvp other than ruining others players trust in this server
