You have the choice to go afk and gain skill OR go out and train as you progress through areas. If anything, you should be thankful you can macro seeing as how you can't in most other games. Just like any good rpg you can't just make a character and fight the toughest mobs, so why should that be possible here.
I know quite a few of you don't get this but there is stuff to do for every level of player. No I am not being sarcastic, a lot of players think you need GM everything before you can play and that is not at all the case here. This talk about skill gain only furthers the idea that GM skills are needed to accomplish anything on this shard which isn't true.
What I see is a bunch of people who complained about skills several times and got there way several times and will continue to do so until they get everything handed to them. Skills have been changed more than enough as it is and instead of being thankful for all the changes made for these players, they still continue to complain. Just because they can't compromise or understand that other players like other styles of gameplay.
As for your ideas, they kind of sound like you just said "make skill gain easier and talk about pvp" and I don't really see the compromise there. Maybe I'm missing how an event, where people choose to enter or not, is the same as changing skill gain for everyone.
A better suggestion, in my opinion, would be creating a new "class" type character specifically for pvp. This character type would gain pvp skills twice as fast but gain all other skills 2x slower or have a 700 skill cap sort of rule.
Of course I really don't like this idea much, unless it flagged the account to be standard or pvp oriented. Otherwise it could throw off some balance.
Anyway, I'm not bashing you, more like exchanging viewpoints :p Besides I'm not into bashing, unless you replace my keyboard with a club... back in my day thats how we bashed people. You silly kids today...
