An Orc would make a better Hulk! I should be Thor since I smack people with my Hammer. POW!

The problem at SF, as Riski said, is a community problem. This server has always had those 10 players who like to flex their e-peens and find different ways of hating on each another each and every week... but in the past these players were just playing arena and the whole shitstorm was kept there.

Now this isn't only FAK's or Ezatt's fault, as someone already said, but it's the way some people see this game that makes things like this keep happening... I was here back when FAK joined the server, and played BGs normally with him for a few months without harming anyone, even with Ezatt on the other team. But the "competition" just starts getting more serious, and now we see the consequences.

So, in my opinion, changing the BG system will not eliminate the problem. Eventually those same players will find a way to start the e-fight again and again and again...

A good thing to do, though, would be separating those players who want to look cool from the ones that are here to play casaully, specially the newcomers. And by this I mean give players somewhere else to PvP and maybe make a new reward system for that, like some cool mounts or something like that. That way, the players that are farming in BGs would have something else to do and would leave those who are not into the e-peen competition alone.

Now I know this would be something hard to do, and it would require a lot of thinking to put it all together. But the way I see it, there is no way the problem would heal itself. Capping HKs would not change the competition between these two guilds, and removing the titles would not make any difference. Banning those players would, as Hen said, be self-destructive, so why not give them a new place to "compete" and fight at?

Then, with this new place specifically designed for "heavy competition", making GY farm bannable would not be that bad of an idea.

You do realize there is like 0 mounts left in TBC right? That's why the game has reached the end, there is nothing left really. The only two things I have kept still on reserve are the Raven Lord mount and the AQ mount.

What you essentially are saying is open a new Hyjal. Which... we've been brainstorming but it's a lot of work, and by the end of the day, the new place is essentially Hyjal... again.


There's no incentives left for these players to keep playing really. Just seeing a HK number go up and up.

Yeah, that is actually one of the reasons why I quit. And I agree with the new Hyjal part, that wouldn't help much... What I meant was that the best thing to do would be take those "farmers" out of the BGs.

But, as you said, there's not much left on TBC that you could use in here.

PS.: I'm not hating on those who take the HK and e-peen competition seriously. I just think it would be better for all the other players on this server if all the shitstorm was pulled out of the "public area".

Hyjal itself is fine just add new content To hyjal involving these 2 mounts as a reward?
like getting kills in Hyjal gives you tokens. and upon reaching X amount of tokens you can buy 1 of these mounts.
spirit gaurds need to be in a wel placed spot so that casters cant hit the players at the GY in hyjal
that should fix the Gy camping prob aswell.

Hyjal doesn't need any rewards, and certainly not one of the rarest mounts in the game for a couple of cheap kills. AQ mount for some idiot farming people with a premade, right, great idea.
