How about trying to get to the battle or back to it and your purge isn't up. Then what is the excuse for being stuck in mezz for over a minute?
If this is a serious question, then this isn't the game for you.

I haven't seen one of these in a while. As numerous people have already said, mezz has been nerfed repeatedly over the years. If you are standing out the entire duration of a mezz, you and your group are to blame.

...Speaking to this playerbase is like speaking to a dead horse. If it was up to them DAOC would have never changed since Oct 01. Clearly fans of the atari look and feel.
it is not the playerbase, it is people like that huhn dude and you. the reason for your problems aint mezz/cc, the reason is that you obviously suck at daoc - because it is to complex for the wow generation of players. the people that play daoc for up to 10 years do it because they like it this way.
l2p is still the best advice for both of you if you want more fun out of this game. even though it seems to be kinda hopeless. -.-

How dare people use CC to impede your ability to add on a fight, or be a reinforcement to a zerg fight. They should just let you back in and deal with the larger numbers together, singling stragglers out is so unfair!

I guess that's why the player base now has 2000 people on the best of days now, down from 100k+ right? Clearly we just need to learn to play, there's not an actual issue there.
Or maybe people just don't want to play a game where 75% of the classes in the game are completely dependent on a realm ability that won't be up for every fight.
Game complexity doesn't matter. Game enjoyment does. People don't play games they don't enjoy. The game can be obscenely complex and people will still flock to it if it's fun to play. But being mezzed and being unable to do anything about it because purge is down is not fun, and the it's somewhat ironic that the classes already best able to deal with mez are the ones that keep getting boosted to deal with it even more.

CC and interrupts makes daoc the best pvp game that's out.
it rewards tactics and timing your abilities rather than just button mashing, waiting for GCD and population

that's why this game is around for 10 years, half of the time in maintenance mode with no new addons, outdated gfx, outdated ui and mediocre customer support. most other mmos with all your stupid klickibunti crap don't even survive the first 5 years.
l2p.

Just one thing to add. DAOC hasn't seen a high population since 03. High population compared to other MMOs that is. No expansion killed DAOC. The mentality of the playerbase is what put DAOC in the state that it's in. They never once begged for what could bring DAOC to today's gaming standerds. Instead they did nothing but cry about TOA Quest/Artifacts and what class needed to be nerfed next.

are you stupid or something? did you even play daoc when toa was released? stop brainfarting plz. 
players did not cry about general gameplay and mechanics because they are unique, skillbased and great as they are. positional styles, interrupts, crowd control and lots of timing and tactics is what daoc is all about.
if actual gaming standards means boring global cooldowns, anytime/rotation spamming, next to no cc, next to no tactics and next to no brainz, then take your "standerds" with you if you find the game you are looking for. we don't want that crap and we still play daoc because daoc doesn't have all that horrible bullshit.
if you still want to stay at daoc (even though you don't seem to understand or like this game), there are possibilities for players like you. just stick kzar or any other zergleader, smash face -> keyboard on inc and you will be just fine.
