Sooo cause more people prefer windows,we shouldn't make new macs??
The server they are releasing has alot less op toons,much easyier to template being a pre toa server,much smaller world too find action and I read the porting in combat wuz gonna be addressed.
Only issue I see is buff issues,but idc,the fun of starting on a new server is a blast,u can't argue that!!
Ywains pop won't hardly hiccup,mabye a few days of peeps goin ova to check it out...
Suppp bick!!

This. As much as the mordred crowd likes to sprout off that open pvp was the greatest thing since sliced bread, the bottom line is, the overwhelming majority of people disagree with them.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion, I just don't see how people could disagree. Seems like nobody actually has a good reason to dislike open PvP, they just say something along the lines of "Mordred is bad and so r u." Which is fine, don't get me wrong, but it'd be nice to see some actual opinions from people who played there and didn't like it.
The only evidence I've heard has been porting in combat, ganking, and shit talking. The latter two happen just as frequently on RvR servers and porting in combat is an easy fix, so I don't think a workable open PvP environment is out of the question. It shouldn't be a server, I'm opposed to any servers which further fragment the population, but I loved open PvP and I for one would love the opportunity to participate in it again. If NF gets reworked maybe they could work that in somehow. I dunno. I'd be behind that idea.
I dont think people who played on Mordred were bad, I think there were a lot of assholes there. At least that was my experience. I don't enjoy being paranoid while I level. I tried it, didn't like it. Shit like getting perfed off a horse while on a horse route "for the lulz".
The bottom line is, at the heyday of DAOC, there were only 2 PvP servers...because the majority of people don't like the implementation of mordred. If more people liked it, there would have been move servers created.
I loved that aspect of Mordred in particular. Leveling was SO much more fun and engaging when you had to pan around and make sure no one was rolling up on you, or when you got to a camp and someone was already there. Point being, you were never just leveling on Mordred, you were killing mobs while PvPing. I just can't see how that isn't much more fun than grinding.

Buffbots were never an issue on Mordred. There are only so many hiding places within a reasonable distance from the PvP hotspots, and if they didn't hide them well it's free RPs. I'd bet that probably 10% of my total RPs on that server came from finding/hunting bots.

1) Open PvP is fine, just not for DAoC. If you want open PvP where classes don't matter and everyone can run the same thing/do the same thing. Go play Rift, WoW, WaR or some other WoW clone.
2) I did play Mordred when it first came out and populations were booming. It's actually what made me quit this game the first time around.

While this may be true,a new PVP server has never been released and had a higher population then ywain.
Do u really think,the new pre toa pvp server,would be a threat or have a higher pop then ywain?? I mean really...

The competitive nature mixed with people being unable to tolerate losing and incapable of getting better. This inevitably leads to the worst players getting tired of dying to the next tiers of players, who quit and cause the next tiers to become the new bottom and so on until just the most competitive players stay and have nothing to do but fight each other over and over again. See also: the last infusion of Mordred players and their eventual departure, and the current state of 8v8.
