PvP Guesting

This is more of a forum suggestion

could we get a place where we can find guests for pvp.

maybe even a subforum in gladiators so that people can post a little bit of details and we can find people who want to gvg. I'm finding it increasingly hard as of late to get players, considering i have a full fl etc etc.

thanks

Would you even really need an entire forum? Teamquitter used to run a guest thread each month where you'd list your IGN, roles, and experience. At the beginning of each month they'd chuck the old thread and start a new one. Seems like that might work just as well here.

I think it's a decent idea; a guest section on guru might help the lower ends of GvG more than QQ.

Why not but we both know it would be easier if there was some kind of outpost to guest people for GvG...

There ya go. =)

A section filled with searches for people to do PvE is not conducive to searches for PvP.

Pugs and Grouping is not just PvE Xeno. =P Reading is Fun. =)

Yeah Rob! Just pick one of them gvg guests advertising in that thread. Bet that solved all your troubles.

If I may be completely honest, any kind of treatment suggested here for PvP is slightly overkill. Whether it's an entire forum for PvP PuGging or just prefixes in the PuG section we already have, I predict it won't be widely used. That said, it's pretty easy to add prefixes to the pugging section Slayer mentioned, so I will do that. It is a definite 'no' to creating a whole new forum for PvP guesting, though.

Cheers, and thanks all for the ideas.

It may not seem that way from the outside, but there's a world of difference between pugging and and guesting experienced players who (at least claim to) have an understanding of various roles and techniques.

not being condescending, but prefixes in a dead thread aren't gonna work very well

thanks for the effort tho

And adding a completely separate section for something that doesn't get use at all works even less.

And we do, but we also have enough vision to see when something just isn't going to see use. Feel lucky you get what you get. =)
