Players that have a solid understanding of the game, ideally, are going to form parties together, where it STILL won't matter what GC they're on.

What you said, Geryth, is exactly what used to happen, and what used to impact queues the most. Everyone wanted to be on the "winning" GC, and numbers became imbalanced for queues. People began to drag down that winning GC and the skilled players would switch, and the cycle just repeats from there.

The bigger issue I've been trying to point out is too many people are convinced they HAVE to turn off Freelancer and HAVE to be in one GC over another to win, and that's just not true. It was never true. And in a time where lots of new people are PvPing - for whatever reasons they may be doing it for - allowing that bad idea to stand is going to do more harm than good.

When the time comes, how long will it be before people are saying you HAVE to be on the Ravens instead of the Falcons to win in Rival Wings?
