    My link shell engages in a PvP event called friendlies.

    During friendlies we employ various rule sets to balance out teams when training people new to PvP. Naked rules, pave rules, dueling rules etc.

    Since the teams are decided by math, in the event of one team completely blowing another out, we balance out the wins/losses with the losing team. A) to encourage people new to PvP to keep coming back to the event. B) to avoid drama of their being a losing team.

    In the month we have run friendlies, we've only had to balance exp 3 times out of 60 runs.

    Our matches last anywhere from 60 seconds to limit break victories.

    We get instant ques, thus we are getting much faster exp, sure fire matches at all times of the day. Thus we are in essence, boosting compared to our community.

    I would say at most the average player can get in 2-4 matches in an hour. We can get in 15-20 due to instance ques. Win traders can get about 45-50 in an hour.

    Team Siren's friendlies feature 8-30 members of our link shell a day, that is up to 30 members a day, that we are taking out of the ques a day. 30/40/50's bracket.

    We consider win trading cheap, and treat players who engage in it as cheap. But not a single member of our link shell would feel cheap about engaging in our link shells event. It fun, fast, and a great way to meet your server.

    Honestly, I don't care about win traders. This is their hobby, let them do what they want. They pay monthly to engage in their hobby, who are we to tell them no, you gotta spend 500 hours of your life in PvP for our respect. And why should they care about the respect of other players, it really does't hurt nor improve their activities.

    Many win traders have lives, jobs, kids, other hobbies. Not really your place to cast judgement on how they manage their down time and hobby.

    The only thing this thread has done, is show everyone here how the inner workings of your mind play out.

    I've seen a bunch of jealous posts that do nothing but give power to the win traders. They want your ire, they want you to be mad, jealous, and salty over their sped up efforts to gain access to more PvP power.

    Because in the end, we are the only ones who care. 90% of the ARR players see win traders and say that's cool., you beat turn 9 yet? And then proceed to tell the r30+'s that this is not a PvP game.

    The things said before this, are meant to be a slap in the face to both side of the argument.

    The things said after this, are a satirical tounge and cheek out look on PvP.

    You know who I hate just as much as Win Traders? People who solo que.

    They are ruining PvP. They only bring one person to PvP at a time, and they get more exp than people to prefer to group up. Even worse two friends will solo que at the same time to maximize exp. Boosting their way to r40 via avoiding grouping up.

    All PvPers should be forced to group up to make exp values fair and balanced.

    The bigger problem with solo quers are the same you find from win traders, they make PvP boring. They barely display any team work in a PvP match, they yell at their team members about not following a plan that they never shared with the group, and are generally the first ones to point fingers after match.

    Solo quers ruin the full potential of a team based PvP mode. Please remove them from the game, stop their boosting practices, and make them form better PvP strategies and teams.

    Do this now or you ruined PvP SE.

    Well not really, just get us front lines already SE . Don't mind the PvP community blaming you for a terrible PvP community, when they are the ones being abrasive in PvP. We all helped ruin PvP for the casuals in our own way.
