I would like to see a mode that you can enter at the start when you enter a WvW where you can choose: PvP mode or Exploring Mode (where you can not be attacked and walk trough every gate) so it’s a lot easier to complete the map …

now it’s almost impossible if your team never gets that exact point …

Pls reply as I want to know if you guys agree

Culling and queue times would be worse. I could only image the uproar from WvWers from the long queue times due to PvErs visiting in the map.

To get a lot of PoI on the map you have to siege different areas to gain advantage of them, does this mean the PvEr can place seige, gain access to the PoI without getting attacked?

Also lets say you can get access to these areas because you are exploring, does this give you access to powers that give unfair advantage to the allied fighting team? (Mesmer Portals)

WvW is a zone meant for PvP, not for exploring. Many people have gotten their gift of exploration from actually participating in WvW or by transfering to a dominating server and having it all unlocked for you. So my suggestion would be to you, have fun in WvW or pay 60 G to transfer to a server that has alot of map covered.

A very bad idea that just would not work. Let us say you were in “explorer” mode and able to walk through any gate. That would be a perfect way to relay siege placements, the number of defenders, etc. to someone via whisper that is trying to capture that objective. We have enough problems with people with multiple accounts placing spies on the server and either siege locking an area or destroying golems, we do not have to give them free rein to do that spying!

but they should do something about the world being so hard to do for PvErs cause of a point in WvW

Why?
To be honest, as a PVEr myself, PVE has no place in WvW.
It’s kinda like walking onto a military shooting range, with the warning flags up, and saying ‘please don’t accidentally shoot me as i’m only here to pick flowers’.
If you can easily pick flowers pretty much anywhere else why would you insist on doing it somewhere where you’re likely to get hurt?
It’s the same with WvW – POIs are incidental, you’ll get them if you just play the game as intended without Anet being required to ‘fix’ something that clearly isn’t broken.
