The queue system is also broken and has to be fixed before they start punishing people for /afk. The problem is that 1 person can hold up a 40 man AV raid from happening because they are ahead of everyone in the queue. The raid group then has to join single and then hide/afk to flip the players infront of them into an instance so that they can rejoin as a group. Kinda lame? Everyone does it now.

The competition versus your own faction wouldnt be so bad if they used your best standing for one week out of the month as a basis to rank you up. The fact that you can go on vacation for a week and loose a months worth of work is retarded and leads to massive burnout even for rank 11. It would also make the system more casual. I think 4 people being able to reach standing #1 is a lot better than 1 person having to hit standing 1 for 4 weeks in a row.

No matter what standing you are on the ladder your still competing with only your faction.
