Now who is putting words into who's mouth? How is inviting others to participate in RM pvmp dictating how they should feel or think? In fact, inviting them is exactly how they can form their Own views/opinions of RM pvmp.
If you want to mark off everyone who kills you in the 30 minutes you log on every week as "ez-moders" and poor quality, that's your call. But don't try to convince others not to come out because you're too sour to try anymore.

I went away at cap65, sorry =(
Newb perspective...
I first set foot in the moors on Jan. 1st and have been having a blast for the last month.
Don't know a thing about old glory days but I still have fun.
I group with newbs like myself and eventually we will get better... and hope to have fun in the process.
So I guess I'd say it isn't all doom and gloom on Ridder PVMP.

As has been mentioned before the action on Ridder is different than it has been since everyone began leaving recently. The action is still there, not in the quantities of landy or brandy, but there nonetheless and good fights can still be had. It has been a refreshing change of pace to be having fights all over the map instead of the usual grams camp. And yes the quality/talent of players on both sides has diminished with many leaving, especially on freepside. While the potential for good pvp here is still a possibility, hopefully the newer crop of players on both sides will help Ridder rebound into something like it was in its better days.
And I disagree with you cost on this notion that there are far more soloers now. Solo imo isn't following around a group and fighting what they fight or sitting at the grams camp or rez camp and fighting with no chance of dying... Solo imo is roaming the map looking for your opponent and fighting what you find to the death... even if you are outnumbered. There are only a handful of true soloers left imo.
And with regards to the amount of renown being made nowdays... comparing the numbers of today to the ones in ROI or before are just stupid. With the inflated numbers from the keep buffs, delving buffs, DP buffs, and 100% renown buffs in a short days work if there are hoardes of greenies out a person should make 20-30k relatively easily. Renown numbers in no way reflect the true quantity of pvp happening on a server imo.
Heres to hoping I run into more small groups and soloers in the near future on my hunter. If anyone is looking for a fight I am usually hiding by sitting on my horse at gta or out roaming around searching for you.
Best of luck

Heya Wulf. Good to see you back posting.
One thing I can say as a new freep who dies a lot - the PvMP portion of the game is the only level cap fun I can find these days. I don't know much about the good old days either to be be honest; I was pretty much a loner creepside in the short time I was there. Fun is what you make of it though, and it is genuinely refreshing to find something challenging to do, that requires relearning how to play (or at least how to suck less), after facerolling two characters through HD.
this thread has more action then what i saw the last few weeks i played out there. but i can imagine it picked up a bit since then. unfortunately my champ and cappy are prolly officially retired for good from the moors as i can't see myself investing any money into this game anymore. i didn't transfer or delete my reaver though and he's a freebee so it's possible he gets thirsty for bralleg's blood one day. more likely i log into a terrible camping situation and remember why i stopped playing again. lol
I am back, but I have to admit to being far from good. Stupidly squishy in red line, nigh invincible in yellow. Sigh...only 39k to Commander and then I'll reassess.

No one else can vouch for seeing you anywhere, and the rest here are no longer on the server or play (outside of forum pvp ... the only place/people who know your name anymore).

Only tears I see is your qq on the forums that keep you away from the game. But alas, I will leave you and your fellows to each others nostalgic cry-fest and return to the game. The long gone and left out with you can provide enough lip service to keep you thinking you're (or ever were) a successful player.

You two should just #### and be done with it.
He's real mad. U MAD U BAD, Cost.
Why does anyone need someone to "vouch" for them? Just because you or your butt buddies don't see him, doesn't mean he's not there. Same with me, Cost. People know our names everywhere, as Tbow puts it "[we] were PvP'ing while you were humping trees in Cheetwood."

It's an amazing game that is going to be released in March, and it shall consume me. You should play the first one, Ren.
