QOL - Throttle some channels

[Delerium69]

We all know about the blob meta and we don't have solutions. This isn't a solution but would discourage people leading warbands using /1,/2 and /t1,t2,t3,t4. I don't feel like there is any other reason why people would do this, other than to simply blob and ensure that the entire faction moves as one.

My recommendation is this, throttle talking in those channels for lets say 1 minute after each time they have spoken. (Basically mute a player from typing in those channels for 1 minute after they've spoken).

What is there to lose? try it.

You know what people really hate? Censorship. Also, this doesn't really matter with the addition of RvR leader crowns

Seriously though, the RvR reward structure needs to be changed and public/open warbands should be rewarded for independently winning or losing. Closed organized warbands should have a different reward structure. If both types of warbands are incentivized to progress the zone in different ways and the rewards are far superior for those running open WBs, you'll see more independent thought and action.

As it stands, a pug warband CANNOT win against organized players and they receive exactly 0 rewards for getting farmed so they are indirectly incentivized to join and follow the strongest available ally.

People use those channels for, you know, chatting. Why on earth would you try to limit any sort of socialization in an MMO?
