OK lets formalize the idea in it’s own feedback.
The idea is simple. Remove the PVP, PVE, and PVE-C segregated servers and dump everyone into one server type and the settings for player interaction are set by the player’s character and not the overall server setting. This means you set up your character as one of the three and opening yourself up to how much player interaction you want but everyone plays in the same sandbox.
Now some rules to this.
Clans can only consist of the same type of player interaction setting (no one PVE person housing all of the clan goods and therefore keeping it safe while the rest of the clan pillages the server)
Recreation of character does not trigger 24 hour decay but normal decay process of 168 hour count down. (No creating a character safe under the PVE protections building up and then switching to a PVP character with timed demolish before others on the server have a chance to figure out what is going on)
Now the benefits of such a change.
Players can enjoy the other types of play and help promote understanding and joint vision vs segregation and the ignorance that naturally comes from segregation (don’t take it personally…it’s the reason why segregation is a bad thing)
The servers get more diversified and get better overall performance due to it. Each play type has it’s own server issues it must deal with in terms of the over abundance of the type of play. Be it ornate and luxurous palaces of PVE or maxed out thralls of the PVP. By removing the segregation, the type of play issues get more spread out and you get a better mix.
Thoughts? And please be constructive. If it sucks, why does it suck and what tweak could be done to make it not suck.
“It is not the Critic who counts nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” -Teddy Roosevelt
