This is so incredibly wrong I don't even know where to start.
Having mass wars often had nothing to do with *skill* that you so graciously hand out to those keeping people from a specific zone or area. If you had played EQ, this would be more than apparent. Server ups, downs, start times, the ability to simply steal kills (In WoW by simply tagging, in EQ by realizing that if one raid tanked and actually had to heal, your warriors could throw on shit to dps, clerics too etc, who cares if it's not your tank!) and a host of other things allowed people to fuck with others and it had absolutely NOTHING to do with their *skill* in keeping you from the area.
No one said rights to a mob. You are however, entitled the ability to go somewhere, based on skill. Barring people from an area THEY CAN GET TO AND ACTUALLY THRIVE IN because you are a douche bag who decides to mass war is retarded. Training shit in Guk onto people because someone had Ass/Sup and you wanted it was not skill, but douchebaggery.
The only thing you juggled on a pvp server was the ability to create truces with other guilds or to have organizations that allowed you to kill shit unhindered.
Keeping people away from things they can legitimately do was very rarely something that involved skill, it was just low down cheating nonsense.
Instancing takes that away thank god. No server downs or ups to fuck with your time so that the boss mob spawns on US servers at a European time. (Gogo Arch Overseers). There is no ability to tag a mob before another raid group does to ensure you can do it; there is no one to snare kite some piece of shit mob until reinforcements arrive. No one to train you, to create ogre walls to keep you from rooms (Which I don't think is skill but fucking amazingly creative and made me lol hardcore.)
Instances ensure that the only way it's not possible to kill something is through sheer skill and experience. Pvp servers have not been about holding off the opposing faction/guilds for a very very long time. Having raided outdoor mobs on Sargeras, and having played on RZ for awhile in EQ, you have a very skewed sense of what you feel is OMG LEET HARDCOREZ 4 TEH LIFEZ!
In short, you're retarded. |
I really have to wonder exactly what kind of douchebag you were in your EQ life, where *EVERY* social interaction you had outside your guild was negative.
Now, I'm sure you're using your SHIT colored glasses to try to offset everyone else's Rose colored glasses, using hyperbole and exaggeration; and all that. Or at least I hope you are. Because if you're just being plain truthful; then Wow's Instancing isn't saving you from the tards, its saving the normals from YOU.
