I really think that rewards need to be higher on the list, maybe not a nr. 1 priority, but higher than "fix or revert DBL.
This will not only bring old players back, but also bring new players to WvW. And we all know that WvW need more players.

The thing is though, I literally know thousands of WvW players that have left Gw2, and not a single one that would return for rewards. I know MANY that would return if WvW gives them nonstop challenging, strategic, fun, PvP action. Bringing the Alpine back just gets them back in the door, WHILE they work on fixing WvW. They wont come back at all unless that happens now. If they can make wvw in GW2 the best large scale PvP on the market, they will come from all over. Rewards are not what does that, as many are willing to pay a monthly sub for that on other games instead of needing in game rewards. Rewards should be an incentive to do more in WvW, not to get them to play the game.

This. I know A LOT of players who would come back if stability and the borderlands were reverted. New players come to a gamemode which is active, fun and well balanced. The players who would come to WvW purely cause they raised the rewards wouldn’t stay long anyways.

This said, please bring back the old borderlands. There are so many reasons for that but I’m sure somebody wrote them down already somewhere in this thread.
