I play with a group of 3 IRL friends on Crushridge... I am an Undead Warlock

You can tell that it's kind of Alliance overpopulated, because nobody responds to the town invasion channels in the undead cities. I belive there are a lot of Orcs, but the Undead are few and far between. We are trying to get a bunch more of our buddies to go Undead over there and even things out.

We did manage to gang bang a Human Warrior who came into our turf once, though we outnumbered him 8-1 and it was all clan members at the time. Nobody else joined in to help, go figure.

Um wtf did you read that? there is no peace in World of Warcraft...
Horde hates the allaince and vice versa.. it is all out war in this universe...
always has been..
hell even on PVE servers there is AlOT of conflict...

as for being ganked and the cowardly carebear remarks above about not attacking a red that someone in your group attacked...

stay off my server carebears... cause people that do that get blacklisted by all the good guilds..
it is a PVP server there is NO peace... you are expected to kill all RED you see it dont matter if its a freaking L1 if its in the Contested area it dies and if you dont like it STAY THE FVCK OFF THE PVP servers...

Thank god my server doesnt have many crybabies about being ganked.... they pick themselves back up get thier corpse and call friends or call guild to come gank the ganker starting a fight which is usally fun...
Your high level guilds should be the ganking police forces thats how it works on Gorefiend... Alliance gets ganked and camped in STV or SS and it goes out on the defence channels... in come the L50+ to pounce on any lamer caught anywhere near the area.. sorry if that red near the area was L20 but hey not my fault wrong place wrong time....
our job is to slow down our opponants so they cannot field groups of L60s as fast as we can..
ganking and camping other enemie guilds accomplishes this...


there are no RULES or LAWS or a system coming to protect lowbies...
there will always be ganking
Blizzard has flat out said the Honor system on pvp servers will NOT have penalties for ganking corpse camping or killing lower level players...
there will be rewards for PVPing in the battlefields where you can buy things with the points you earn..

REPEAT IF YOU ARE ON A PVP SERVER THERE IS NO HONOR SYSTEM COMING TO PROTECT YOU FROM BEING GANKED OR CAMPED BY HIGH LEVELS OR ANYONE ELSE....
See Mutiliple Blue posts on the boards for confirmation of this...
there will only be rewards coming and other ways to encourage MORE conflict.

What happened to being dishonored? Is that what they call the system now where you lose "reputation" for killing NPCs?

scrapped see WoW forums second day of release...
Bliz has now stated you will never get penalties for ganking or any other kind of PVP...
becasue it deters away from the open warfare they are wanting on the pvp servers

Can't read the forums any more. They are blocked at work and at home I would rather play than read unless there is something I need to discuss or look up. Anyway half the time search doesn't work, so I have to page through hundreds of threads explaining why warrior sucks, paladin needs to be nerfed, horde are outnumbered, etc.

So there will still be honor for killing higher level players but no dishonor for killing lower level? Sounds about right... it would suck to be dishonored while doing a raid on a town just because you defended yourself.

that can't be right, look at whisperwind, has about 7200 alliance and 900 horde! wowcensus is horribly wrong as well

Considering it's only as good as the users who download and help provide the info...
