you have the option to join or not join an OP war, it's not forced
as for the thing about farming points, two people tagging up and fighting to the death over and over, even if they're really trying could be considered farming by some but not by others. it's very hard to police something like that. further more, i feel there's far more serious things that the CSR's could be doing then trying to be the atys police and slap people on the wrist for in effect "spitting on the sidewalk". if there was more then just a skirt and shield then perhaps it would be logical to worry about people that farm, only mara's are limited in getting crystals via pvp points, the rest of us can use the civ points to get them. by choosing to be mara you choose to have the harder way to go, maybe they should consider making missions that the mara's can do to gain "mara" points so they can buy sap crystals with those. i do feel that mara's are rather neglected in terms of missions with rewards other then dappers. (tribe missions are the only way that mara's can really make dappers, which they can do quite well, i'm sure)
personally i'd much rather see them being able to make right bugged missions and things like that, vs the "we're sorry we can't do anything about it, you have to wait and take the mission over again. no we can't reset the mission timer so you can retake it now. no we can't replace the __________ that you lost because of the error."
sorry some of that got off topic, but the bottom line on topic is that if you force it, it will hurt the larger player base that doesn't want to be forced to pvp, regardless of region, be it a 50 region or a 250 region.
i do agree that nexus would be a good region for this, as there's very little reason to go there, so it could be the perfect place for pvp free-for-alls.
