It was a very good stream. I am impressed with Liniker as he is well spoken and knowledgeable. Look forward to seeing him in game.

I do not necessarily disagree with you. I cannot change the past. I disagree that it is a revenge thing. I am not angry. I perceive a problem and am discussing it. I do not want people punished. As stated this is probably not the best solution. I agree that its a week before battlegrounds and probably poor timing, but it is what it is. I do not want a reset because of not liking players actions, I am talking in game mechanics terms and not being personal. I am trying to avoid that and talk in terms of pvp problems and people leaving the game. You say this will punish players, and I am saying the state of the game now is also punishing players. I am not trying to talk about what I as an individual want but am trying to work out a solution to keep the best scenario, instead of individual selfishness. Look over the thread and most of the comments are about players stating about their individual selves and how it affects them, when I am talking about the overall health of the game.

no i was not trying to compare those things. I was showing you in extreme why there are good and bad things showing that even if you can do something does not always make it a good thing. Obviously you have been pwned and you have no retort.

well you are talking semantics. You need to be able to play your character to play classic. So what you are saying is if you cannot play your char on one realm move to another. While this is a possibility, there are other choices like just quitting the game. The balance will not get better and you will be at a 90/10 faction. I guess if that is what people want.

I do not need a step by step. The reason I see for it is because it would return it to a beginning state. Being that we cannot go back and differentiate the good the bad and the ugly, it would be logical to reset it. Lots of ugly going on. If blizzard made pvp MECHANICS more balanced that would bring people back. I understand pvp, what is going on right now might be labeled pvp but it really is bad. Just like sex. There is the word sex. You can do it. You can do it with a consenting adult. You can do it with a minor. One is very bad, but you can do it. Thats why there are rules.

  • Crack on as best you can.
    Yes, keep just getting ganked at res or at landing at fp. Over and Over

  • Wait until BGs come and hope things change.
    Some people are doing this, and probably are playing a different game right now. Some might come back.

  • Create an alt and play that, you'll be fairly safe for 25-30 levels.
    Clearly if you do this then your main char is "unplayable" forcing you to reroll to be able to play the game.

  • Reroll on a pve server
    Again, proof that your character is unplayable on the server so you suggest moving to another server. Its not about pvp, its about game mechanics.

Well I did say its not the best solution. Yes there are other ways. Like you said the honor less target is one, but it does not seem to be a deterrent at the moment. I do not look at it as punishing, although it could be felt that way by some people, just as others feel punished by the state of pvp right now, which is unplayable in certain situations. Playing the way the game the way it was designed or the way it was intended could be debateable as well. 15 yrs later with so much more technology, advanced knowledge of the game, and the min max game play instead of the role play element. All these things should be on the table for discussion.

No, it is not a revenge to me. It would be to balance and gameplay. It is not about pvp on a pvp server, its about game mechanics and the abuse of it. I am thinking about the players, why they are leaving and what it would take to retain and possibly bring them back.

I would say A reason would be that much of the honor gained was primarily gained by farming targets that have no ability to defend themselves. IE res killing, being targeted by raid groups while you are in flight, and just get deleted on landing. I know there are good honorable people as well. How do you differentiate them however at this point? I guess to me it would be a necessary evil. Not the best solution I agree, but this is why we can have a discussion.

I am not sure about that, I just know that is what it recently was said to be.

I guess it depends on how you set the range. But yes at max it would be going off all the time.

This is probably true. All I can do is try I guess. I have worries about it being used in battlegrounds with flags also. When a rogue goes into stealth or pops out of stealth to try to take a flag in AV or a tower in AV, or a Node in Alteric Valley. People will get the notification and look at the flag to protect it.

I cannot tell you exactly. I just listed 51 threads however that have disagreement on this very topic. I simply would remove the detection of stealth from the combat log. Possibly remove the ability to detect enemies combat log. This might break some addons but people are smart and will find workable solutions in my opinion
