Back in the day, me and my friend could wait 2 hours for a guy to leave pits, just so that we could get his gear. I've probably gotten at least 10 gears this way, without having to hunt a single second (had to stand "afk" a few obviously:p). Now, that being said, my actions and similar ones have also made a few people quit.
I personally think that pits provides for a ruthless, newbie unfriendly, environment. It does have it's up sides though, at least with our current player base. I would like to see how things would be working without pits, as we said in the begging, and I see no reason why not to do so.
I've noticed that as soon as someone says "lets change the PvP", we say "it was promised to us in the merge", and that's that. Maybe we shouldn't forget about promises that doesn't benefit "our" way of playing the game.

I'll remove pits today after server restart. It will be gone for at least 1 week, depending on what the outcome is.

Well we did promise 2 weeks without pits from the beginning.
Gates will be moved to outside Brit bridge and they will also be placed inside Brit.

And how you think people will gank there? if once someone attacked them they can run into safe zone??? omfg... i just cant understand it... maybe u could put rune like to pits, but to tourney arena and duel arena then? And why not put Gate or rune in some red city? Cos blues can just stay and dont let reds enter to that gate, by abusing, Harm then runaway in gz... Omfg, maybe u should think a bit more ???

First of all.. Most of the PVPers aren't afk, they're waiting in the pad room, waiting for someone to step on the red pads. Read Maka's post please, this is also how it works on IN:X if you haven't noticed.

The point is; The pvp you have is not attractive at all in the first place. There have been several people leaving this shard because of their dissatisfaction of the PVP.
A common arguement from 'your side' is that once you tried it you will see the light in it. Well, how do you think people would get into this pvp if they have no place to PVP? Removing the pads, will hopefully make reds go to the britain bridge, which will make blue vs. red wars. The thing about these wars, is that blue, newbies can easily try out and be a small part of the fight by doing the few things the know. They will also slowly learn, and problably see the light as you describe it in this PVP.

I'm just curious... Have you actually never participated in a britain bridge war? It's not like you're running around on the bridge like there were walls pretending you to go somewhere else. The reds can easily move the war further from the bridge.. You're the bait, it's your choise where you want the blues to come.

this could also be solved by making teleporters go to diffrent locations than to remove the whole pits idea. ffs and stop qout me. your talkign bout something that i can in 10sec se is totaly wrong and false.

another good tactic is to have a friend be a blue and cast walls behind the other blues when they run outside.
Also, this topic is going to get to be soooo long. 0_o
When it comes to the reds' pits rune though, you might put it further away from britain so that if any blues decide to be jerks, they'll have a long run back to the guards. Possibly over inside the old stables across from the casino.

I think i was at those wars alot more often than you. And never seen that someone of blues dares to go out of bridge when we waited them near casino. They didnt moved. Cos they scared that someone of their blue "friends" will cast walls behind them and they can run back. And btw, im still recalling there everytime, but i never seen someone, thats why we gank in ocllo. And i really think that we need gate to tourney arena/duel arena in some red city. What the **** descrimination? Why u place gate in blue city, and dont place it in red city?
