imo aga and the gms and concentrating on the wrong things to make this game fun.... allow me to explain:
the only reason you pve/quest and/or grind is to get to max level so you can have some good pvp (or to have gear in order to be competent in said pvp)... erm atleast thats the main reason MOST people come to private servers in the first place. i mean think about it if people really wanted to grind or quest more they would have just stayed in pwi instead of coming to a private server in the first place (or is it just me?).
now what i would suggest is trying to make the reason people came to a private server more challenging. meaning making pvp more competitive and what not. (i know this isn't easy, but nothing that's worth doing ever is). so just speculating from what i hear on the forums and from what friends tell me, there are WAY too many alliances in the game to have any competitive pk out there anymore (missing imp yet?
). that said you guys should hold an event lasting for however long to try to see which faction can HOLD west gate (or any other place) for the longest in a set amount of time. and no alliances will be allowed (meaning only one faction wins). i also suggest giving this event extremely good prices, thus making factions want to pvp more and not just grow stronger but make it's members stronger as well (meaning more pve crap will get done). again this is just a suggestion but you get the point. i strongly recommend making pvp more challenging rather than just adding more pve.
anywhoooooooooooo tataaaaa <3
