I don't know what and how much the horse racing event has been discussed earlier, and my purpose is not to start an unnecessary argument, however I do want to point out that I support the horse races and think it could be a great event if it's done right.

as for horseraces you're just simply being persistent because you want it and can't face the fact that lag is actually more visual in running around on rides/foot than doing actions in game is what you're not understanding i'm not debating it i'm telling you it's going to be lame. People who live closest to the server will always win which is lame

Saying the horse races is more of a lag issue than any individual PVP event, or say the looting in a monster bash (which is the main goal there), is just ridiculous.

Try running side by side with someone from europe. You if anyone should know that they can't just outrun you easily because of their ping advantage.

A slight ping advantage/disadvantage wouldn't matter more in a horse race in a course full of obstacles, than in near any aspect of the game, especially not more than in the PVP-system we have.

Having "people with high ping will have a disadvantage" as argument, is possibly the worst argument one can have. The ping will always give advantages and disadvantages. People with lower ping will always have a slight advantage, in horse races as in a 1vs1 duel.
