However, once that advantage is used to attempt to exterminate the more casual population from the game it nullifies any pvp based griefing argumants that jorb/loftar have expressed as their core beliefs. The population always drops into the hundreds once the factions have settled down and made their alliances. In past worlds, w10 for sure, we had a community fair and events that kept people around and the last part of the world was a good time for a new player to join and learn the game. Now if the creators mean for the game just to be played at a faction level, then put that out there. I am not sure how to address this as a two man team, I am just want the game to thrive.
i still dont really think this is the correct take, factions became your bogeyman because factions are the only things that survive the mid-late game without getting bored and quitting by month 3. the problem isn't that someone made a bot that helps them grind 5k stats, the problem is that they're the only other kid in the sandbox with you.
