I'm wondering if anyone read my post, or the posts of others with very good non-war/non-game-design-reasons for not forcing everyone to do this. Understand that I am not arguing against the principle of encouraging everyone into RvR which is the point of the game. I think if you had read those other posts and thought about it some instead of focusing on your own problem with the game you might understand the reasons.

However, since you do not seem to be the only one who didn't read, I'll lay them out for everyone.

1) Not everyone wants to spend every damn second focusing their full attention on grinding. Grinding in the war zone forces you to do this because any second you could get attacked by a hunter. There are a number of very valuable adult players who grind while doing other tasks (like watching their kids, maintaining their house, etc...) Forcing these people to just accept every random death from rp-whore-hunters is silly and not good for a company's bottom line if they're trying to hold the interest of adults with jobs.

4) There are other methods of strongly encouraging players to grind in the war zone without forcing them. You guys pushing this option seem completely unwilling to even consider those other options.



---> Understand that while I may not have been in this game from the beginning, I was in Ultima Online from the initial Beta Test so I know exactly what a FFA MMORPG looks like and I have a good appreciation for the fun that can be had in such a situation. I am not trying to prevent you people from improving the fun in RO, I agree that more war zone population should be encouraged (particularly on Horus). I Do not agree with forcing everyone to play as you want them to play.
