1st) If you do not play in Thid... Stop reading and ignore this chat.
We do not care that do do not care about Thid.
The tactic employed by MOST Albs in Thid is to run around near CK and wait for someone to start a fight.
Then 4-24 Albs use the speed of the realm they get at CK to run in and zerg the Mid/Hib party.
This I say is a stupid way to let a BG enjoyed by a meaningful number of people on this server become.
2nd) A little background: I started as an Alb and have 4 level 50 alts and several Thid level alts.
I would log into Thid and see 6 to 19 Albs all standing around CK complaining there was no action.
Then 1-4 Hib or Mid peeps showed up and were zerg'd down by ALL the Albs.
I decided to leave Alb when I saw 12+ Albs chase a solo Mid all the way from MB to MPK.
The problem is that many decent suggestions for improving Thid have been ignored.
I agree that things can not be changed to make Thid play better if it Jacks-up lvl 50 play.
I agree that the Devs should not spend any more of their time than necessary on a part of the overall game.
3rd) The suggestion: Remove the Speed of the Realm hastener from CK.
If we can not get any better suggestions implemented... this appears simple and will have a positive effect.
Everyone can get SotR from their portal keep.
Everyone who ventures out will for extended periods or engages in combat will have the same side-affects.
No one will be able to stand at CK using the guards as protection and then be able to run down any opponent.
People will be forced to either engage or run... not wait for someone else to start action and gang up on them.
