And now we have two new activity - Frontlines that is competitive PvP and Hunts that is competitive PvE.
If you don't like to actively compete with others - just leave this content alone. And as for rewards... they always go to most dedicated crowd.

This is not a competition, it would be a competition if the prize was only for the party who did the most DPS out of the hunt. Right now, is just a mindless race, nothing else at all. A bad excuse for a badly thought, devoloped and applied concept of content. The forums beg for a solution, idk if any of us has really a good alternative, but as much as we know, Hunts are not good as they are right now.

Necromancing this because of the epic maintenance and fix to the hunts.

It's a competion - receive information, get in time, organize your party properly to get gold even with 100+ people around. All of those requires some practice and organization.

You know, that part of the crowd that successful in Hunt mostly not write on a forum because they are good as it is. Leftover and wannabe is the people that post their tearful experiences on a forums, but they a vocal minority.

I propose you a read on a subject "forums beg for solution" - http://www.eldergame.com/2008/06/tam...e-forum-tiger/
The very first paragraph is hilarious looking at what a mess General forum became.

It is in fact a competition, except that most ppl don't like it! Ppl are indirectly forced to do it because of the reward if one wants to keep up with other! If the alli-seal reward was taken away, I dare to say all those NMs would just wander alone in the field!

it is a competition, the fact is, it was not designed to be one.

Nope. Real competition would involve open world pvp to see who deserves to claim the prize. Seeing whose system can load faster or who is lucky enough to be in the vicinity of a mark is not competition.

You seem to like to use that website as a bible to support things you are in favor of. Newsflash: It's an opinion piece, nothing more, nothing less. Look at the comments for that article. Many people disagree with him too.

I got http://mmo-play.com/mmo-blog/mmo-communication 5 seconds after typing search into google. So what's your point?
