"We will be focusing on story" "there will be no new operations until the end of kofte" pretty much, prior to this approach many pvp servers were doing ok like ToFN which was my original server, theres probably more reasons but imo the one that hurt the most was really no new operations guaranteed at start of kofte, many people saw no reason to stay subbed (my self included but for rl reasons aswell) and up until recently i would just log a bit to an op or a fp but alas i made some new friends in ops and am now a sub for the time being as long as its challenging and above all fun, i felt no joy or excitement woth kofte, story is cool but it will never replace my experience with vanilla, all the difficulties the calls for a friendly hand etc, heroics.. I mean back then being in a planet was something fun, normal heroics bonis series etc etc.
Basicly is being stripped of its best quality - immersion.
