For the Love of God BW Get a Mod for the PvP Forum

Please? That place has become a cesspool of people claiming hacks left and right, people begging for nerfs to 3.0 classes (yes, already) or just more pointless whining. Half the threads on the page are troll/pointless threads the should be closed or combined.

 

It makes your game look terrible for new or prospective players when all they see are threads like this, this and this.

I'd really like you to go back in the PvP forum and find a page that *isn't* like what you described. In fact, any PvP forum that isn't what you just described. Whining and screeching is pretty much the essence of all PvP forums. Also, bullying, belittling, and dick-measuring. I don't think any mod deserves to be subjected to a PvP forum. Let them scream each other out of existence until only the statisticians are left.

The reason our PvP forum is like that (I can't speak about other games) is in part due to almost no moderation. Threads are allowed to go completely off the rails, the same person will start 3 or 4 threads on the same BS topic and blatant troll posts can go on forever. It makes the game look like **** and it makes the forum all but useless. It's gotten even worse lately, most of the posts are unreadable.

It's the same and even worse on the WoW Forums. The SWTOR forums are tame by comparison.

Well, to be fair, any new player coming to SW:TOR looking for PvP will be dissapointed in the long run anyway.

 

This isn't a "PvP game".

 

The PvP in this game is fantastic. The competitive PvP in this game is garbage. SWTOR isn't going to be the next e-sport, but there are many constructive posts to improve PvP that get buried/ignored for speed hack threads where someone uses Predation. This isn't a crafting game, but people craft. This isn't an RP game, but people RP. I wouldn't expect BW to ignore these players either.

You're wrong. I originally played this game specifically because I enjoy PvP in MMOs...although it's certainly lacking in PvP content, the PvP this game does have is amazing. It's complex, it's well paced and it's enjoyable.

If I were to guess, if folks were ranking PVP in MMOs as in a top ten, SWTOR would not even make the list.

 

Naturally it has its benefits, good design points here and there and a relatively loyal portion of the playerbase. But I think the general consensus among PVP players would be that the system here is on the poor end.

 

ESPECIALLY with respect to large player groups.

I remember for the first few years the entire forums were HEAVILY moderated. Now?

 

 

No employees....Hey wait I got it. Put that "CM" new girl on moderating. Forgot her name, the one with no gaming background other then a few Youtube videos that was hired.

 

 

She's got my vote!
