Realisticly, majority of players and pvpers know that there would be not only increased activity in the field but also general population if the tournaments (and other events) were removed.

I'm not advocating one way or another, but I think that much is clear.

You won't find field pvp on these boards.

I kill plenty of pvp characters who I run into as well.

1v1's 2v2's etc.

I make more gold than the farmers while I field pk.

You guys just seem to think that standing at Brit GY will magically lure in all the PvP from the entire server.

During osi it was more melee based. People would actually raid towns with dragons, and melee groups. Casters were strictly used for cc and healing. Field pvp was mostly organized guild house raids.

I remember when I first started here, there was a small amount of it. When your house (Hemp) was in Yew, and it was a main target. That is what pvp use to be like. Not this tournament bs.

No. Half this forum is garbaged with your posts. I don't feel like sifting.

pvp events were all but removed before
ask the people who pvped then what happened it would be the best way to find out, or do some research on the subject on your own.

Fruit Loops managed to get events practically removed down to very few of them a month. There was just one(if you were lucky) tourney held in a month. The PVP picked up in the field for a week and it turned into a ghost town very shortly after that week.

Btw, if you're too lazy to do the work required to find your answer don't expect people to do it for you... :roll:

Look at http://forum.uosecondage.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=15697

GuardianKnight is saying he had attempts against his life 20 times in the space of a couple of hours. I, myself, stated when I hunt in Covetous lv3, I have attempts against my life every 10 minutes or so.

Tell me, how is there no PvP on the server?

Oh that's right, because noone actually fights against the PKs. Log on, leave town and be amazed.

Set tournaments in uo for pvp is simply not uo, if that is all this server has to offer for pvp, then there is probably better places to find it.

Ya, because you know where reds are at all times? Gotchya. People either wait for tournaments, or roll dungeons murdering newbs. Those are pretty much the only 2 options you have for pvp here, if I couldn't find any field pvp, that is what I'd do. :roll:

Well if you're not even going to go looking for PvP, how do you expect to find it?

i couldnt agree with you more Marcus. i have been saying this since i started playing here in 2008. i have started numerous threads about this issue, and posted my opinion in just about any other relevant threads. all these people who are throwing out comments stating that it will never change, seem to be the ones i never see in the field.

PVP events should be run exclusively by the players, not by an automated script that changes certain dynamics of the game.

PvM events/town invasions, should be run by staff, but VERY rarely as they were on OSI.

and most importantly, if you fancy yourself a PVPer, then get out in the field and prove it. The way you had to on OSI.

No one is going to want to aimlessly look for gank squads murdering. That is what guild wars were made for. They do no good in tournaments.
