Why punish PvP-players and reward winning-team-joiners?

I know a lot. Guess its different if you are not a member of a xrealming guild

Again, good for you. Here's a cookie. You are still in the minority.

Imagine, for just a second, players having some sort of realm pride.

Unbelievable for some people on this server, I know. But it used to be the norm, be it DAoC or later WoW. If people found out you were playing both (2 or more of 3 in DAoC's case) sides, chances were you most likely weren't trustworthy to the ones dedicating their playtime to one faction. It's just human to trust "your own" more than double agents.

And yes, I (and many others) know A LOT of people who handle it the same way here, leading to a close-knit and trustworthy community to play with.

Then again, I guess the guys who like to join the winning side will always find a hollow shell of an argument to evade taking responsibility being a flag-in-the-wind, as we say here.

I played DAoC, and I played all realms on different servers, and yes people did this on the same server were a little bit suspicious for a lot of people.

I think for most people here it would be fine to play both realms on differnt server, but unfortunately there is only one and not even enough people to populate it properly. What about not judging all people playing both sides the same? A minority of people having chars on both are winning team joiner.

That's a fair point you made. I absolutely agree. I guess seeing the patterns in-game leaves one a bit bitter at times.

My point is: There seem to be many people who don't see it as a problem at all. And that's instantly fishy to me.

It may be a problem, but there is no solution without disrespecting others playing totally without the winning team component
