Suggested new forum rule.

I for one am getting fed up of the threads that sometimes but not always that when a thread with good intentions descends into a one play style vs another play style Toxic slanging match. The pve vs PvP debates have a very high probability of going Toxic and threads with toxicity inducing titles should be more closely monitored like the This play style or that play style will keep the game alive threads will 100% just go one way.

I would be happy they the mods come up with some guidelines when they will step in and just close the threads down (a be a bit more pro active than they currently are) to make this forum a better place to be. It would save me having to just ignore people to do a similar thing.

Your thoughts?

Your feedback and thoughts about the game (and the community at large) are important to us, but this thread has somewhat devolved into dog piling the OP and has long since moved away from the original point that was brought up. Please try to stay on topic and respectful while engaging in the different conversations on these forums.

As for the OP and the conversations in general... When it comes to discussions about PvP and/or PvP, it is important (and more helpful) to talk about the different gameplay aspects or experiences that you have, rather than commenting on those of others. Generalizing an entire group of players or talking down to a particular type of player does not help drive the discourse forward. Oftentimes all it takes is one misplaced (or misread) jab or insult to start a toxic death spiral for a thread.

I've said this in other threads and elsewhere before, please remember that all the other players, posters, and mods on here all want to see the game do well and have it be the best game it can be. There may be disagreements on how to accomplish that, yes, but to assume that anyone wants the game to fail is misled and leads to talking past each other. Giving others' posts as charitable a reading as you would want for yours can go a long way. Thank you.
