Why is wintergrasp no longer active?!?!?!?

#1 » Post by abio » 23 Feb 2017 17:40

I play wintergrasp almost everyday, it's my fave bg, idgaf if it's bugged tbh, It's a fun pvp zone, and i like to do weeklys there on at least 2 chars per week. There's not enough bgs atm as is, and this is the only way to farm honor during off times. Disabling this bg is a poor decision. If this decision was based off a few individuals abusing these bugs, these individuals need to be banned, this is the wrong way to deal with an easy problem. I'd like to see something done correctly, instead of people not giving a shit because "the server is dieing" because maybe if people started giving a shit we would see more pop. idk.

I encourage you to witch-hunt the abusers. It's thanks to them that we can't have nice things. :-(

As Gnurg said the only reason behind its closure was o fix the bugs that were plagueing the place....
I personally loved Wintergrasp and i hope to get to play it again as soon as it gets fixed.
* ps: No witch hunt will be needed if there would have been a slightly different aproach in how rulebreakers where handled :
Ex: I as a person don't belive in second chances in regard to rulebreakers... so just banning the offending character will never be a good enough deterent action / punishment. The only punishment that " in my view" should apply to such violations would be permanent all accounts wide perma ban. ...
If in the unlikely case such a person would make a new account and would repeat the abuse a permanent ip ban should also be issued.

It was mostly close due to exploits made by one person. I think everyone can guess who it is..So I guess either convince him to stop using exploits or do what you did with Eryx or keep it closed and wait for devs to fix it when they get free time.
Retired - Sadly I can't agree with cf bg's being a good choice for the server. The only thing we got with this feature is less bg's nowadays and less people online and I can't participate in this big mistake.

This is a PvE server; don't expect anything.

Also, I'd just like to point out a certain "competing" wotlk server has Wintergrasp working 100% for at least 3 years now.

It's not better, because people are aware of those bugs, you can find multiple threads about them. That said, it's quite possible someone else to begin abusing.

It is a PvE server because people need to farm SM and end game heroic PvE gear in order to be competitive for 2v2s (which doesn't exist on this server), driving away any new PvP orientated players from levelling here in the first place. Then you also have dogsh1t "Wrathful Gladiators" sh1t talking you while using BiS PvE gear and playing the easiest and strongest class in Wotlk (Paladin).

Locking since the question was answered and there's no reason to stir more drama.
