Unclaim a keep - can we discuss this option?
It has been suggested numerous times in the past and Anet is clearly aware of the issue. Don’t hold your breath for a resolution though.
Thanks Kuru, I tried searching with many variants, could not find any previous thread on what I would consider, an easy-to-fix problem.
Well you need to hold on till expansion arrives. And then WvW gets 1 extra more tag colore Green. MASSIIIIIVVVVEEEEEE update.
Maybe year after that we get kick in the bumm.
Really dont hope anything or any solution at all. Only Pve related stuff is done.
I think guilds shouldnt flag things without active upgrades and dissapear if all of the upgrades are expire
Just the WvW
R3200+
Obviously they shouldnt be allowed to claim with out buffs, then we dont need the silly member counting rule to claim freshly captued camps. Like the others said, prolly not gonna happen anytime soon
I have not found anything regarding this problem in the forums, so I would like some suggestions regarding this issue.
On our lower-tier server we have a problem with “trolling” guilds. When a major keep like Garrison is recapped the keep is often claimed by a guild that is not known to the WVW players on our server and no buffs are implemented. So, when the keep is attacked we have no buffs to help us defend or repair. After some discussion, I would like to suggest that claims should “expire” after an hour with no buffs. We only have a few active WVW guilds and we must move our claims around so just claiming and sitting on a site to prevent this is not an option.
Any thoughts?
The same problem with high tier servers: some trolls claiming strategic keeps (SM, Garri, etc) just to make a bad things to another players and there is no any ways to punish them, because democracy, human rights, blah-blah.
Ok, so allow us at least unclaim it!

This idea was suggested already three months ago:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/wuv/Feature-Request-Automatic-Claim-Removal/4436887
John Corpening from ArenaNet told me directly that this was an “interesting idea” and that my thread was being circulated amongst the WvW team.
That was three months ago, I still have hope.

Here’s a thread from Dec, 2013, over a year ago:

Here’s a thread about it from Jan, 2013, two years ago:

That’s just doing a 30 second search. I’m sure you can find even older threads. You still have hope?

You still have hope?
Yup, I do. You should too.
And for the record I clearly stated in my post that the idea for claim improvements had already been mentioned so I don’t know why you feel the need to respond to me with links.
I’m sure there are better places for you to troll.
Good day sir.

Oh wow, upon rereading your post, I now realize that I was mistaken. John Corpening himself(!) told you that your thread was being circulated amongst the WvW team! I now agree, there is no doubt we’ll be seeing some results soon™.
The two years where they did nothing about this very well known issue — yeah it doesn’t indicate any trend at all about dev attention towards WvW. After all, John Corpening told you it was being circulated, right?

Right.
Look at the picture and stop trolling.
And yeah, I’m just as skeptical as you are about it actually happening, but I still have hope that it might. I wouldn’t bother playing the game if I didn’t.
Oh and thank you for that sarcasm in your post. I’m sure your 3800 posts on the forums will get you an in-game achievement one day.

What wvw team? Ahhh, the coffee maker, cleaner, post boy and the general dogsbody?
This and many other issues have been mentioned since day one, nothing has changed. Learn not to hold your breath on these things.
Or as the saying has it ‘if at first you don’t succeed, try try again. Then give up. No point in being a kitten fool about it.’

He is not trolling you but pointing out this issue has been around since launch and yet to this day nothing happened. So please dont hold your breath on this cause you may end up dead anytime soon.
Just saying.

I clearly pointed out in the earlier post that I knew this issue has been around since launch. Read the thread. He’s trolling. I responded to the OP with my post. He responded to me with irrelevant links and ridicule.

An hour without buff started I hope? And after the first is finished, what about then?

That would work. It might also be useful to have an option to remove a claim.

Not my words. Read the text. It was a direct quote. I’m just as skeptical as are you.

Yes, I know.

I also play on a lower/mid tier server and we get this problem a lot. Half the time the person claims without understanding how they work, the rest of the time they claim and intentionally put up bad buffs or no buffs at all.
It would be great if Anet addressed this problem.

And the solution is so kittening simple: If your guild has more buffs than the current guild claiming a keep, you should be allowed to claim it from them!
This makes sure you have the buffs you need when you need it.
WvW is a 24/7 match, and guilds dont always have members online 24/7. So how do you ask them to claim something else when they are offline?
The above solution is simple and what is needed and prevents troll guilds from claiming a keep to prevent you from getting your buffs!
