Guilds and servers are ripped apart.

If SBI stuck it out after that one guild left, they may have been fine at T3 ot T4 and may have had a lot of fun. But, if what you say is accurate and everyone has left, you’ll be dropping further down than you should have.

This is an example on why free transfers should and will stop. If an important wvw guild has the resources to leave in the future, the server may drop a few pegs, but there won’t be a mass exodus to start a painful spiral to T7/T8. The timing is unfortunate for SBI.

Will there be an option to keep enemies (and even allies) as fallback models?

For people with lower specced machines or bandwidth limitations, it could increase performance? It could also just be a preference, since having a model “update” could be distracting while trying to track them.

Calling them militia is the single worst thing you could do It has a derogatory and downgrading tone towards others.

Militia here. How is it derogatory? We’re not part of the main forces that run around the areas doing major things. We are small groups that do our own thing that helps towards the server’s overall goal, whether hit and runs, harassing reinforcements and the occasional “Did we just beat that [XYZ] zerg of 20 people with just 1 party?”.

The first definition utilizes the term “ordinary civilian.” So for GW2, it would imply that un-guilded players are less skilled/trained than guilded ones, which is not true.

GW2 already has a term for this.

Someone who has lost his/her warband. This means everyone who doesn’t have a guild gets to have a thrilling backstory about how they ended up alone!

Why does everyone want the character to just stay there motionless when the person disconnects? You won’t reconnect (you’re in combat, even pve mobs will take you down) so you’re as good as dead.

If someone alt-F4’s in combat, why does someone else have to spend the extra seconds bringing down a bag of hp? The griefer is now doing the person a favour by insta-killing themselves so the winner can move on to something else (like other enemies.)

Also, for the strategy of leaving one tower on each map for the enemy to prevent…. that will be hard to convince everyone on your map to do….
