I bet jorb/loftar know how many accounts are actually involved in pvp or have pvp.
Do you think casual player can stand some toon created by fraction with 1000s stats, or will patrol their claims every 24h if some sad basement dweller is setting wrecking ball and later comes again and again to bash fresh walls?
More ppl are intrested in sandbox building at free time, not schedule their lifes to flex hearthlings stats while running with b12 around.
Opt-out for pvp!
