This kind of idea or similar came up in Aniro forums several times in several flavors, though mostly with the intention to intensify being tagged for roleplay purposes.

The concerns which such proposals have already been uttered: removing choices will be likely rather to drive players out than motivating them to do PvP.

Under my impression, PvP participation in Ryzom is not low. More than half of active players, if not more, take part in OP fights, and, as an estimate, well 20% of regular players are in other PvP activities, at least here and then.

Unfortunately, some activities are not known widely. For example, the french players had a long chain of player event activity (SOS theocracy) involving PvP not seldom, last major part the freeing of the marauder Ezek during his trial for assassination of Paolen in Zora (a well planned and carried out attack). A few weeks ago, there was the abduction of a Clan McFay member (Anonyma) by marauders, with a subsequent attack of Clan McFay and allies to free her. Unfortunately, cross language informations are bit too weak and slow, here, and have not been encouraged sufficiently yet. With some translator volunteers one could ease such communication, perhaps.

The idea of more arenas is good as well. I recall the proposal for a Fyros arena having been made on Leanon already and having been considered, would be time to make it happen if possible. An arena in the Lakes would not be bad, either, e.g. on an island close to Dew Drops Kami/Kara tp not to make it a pain to reach it. And then one in the jungle as well ;).

We had long discussions about PvP rewards, already, and this idea is being checked by the Devs. Hope they come to a conclusion, soon.

Normally I would respond to comments especially those that attacking me for proposing and those that falsely attribute statements to me or make statements which have no support.

However the moderator of this forum has decided to remove and censor my responses which just furthers the distortion. Since they have not interested in having me make suggestions to improve the game, and discuss such suggestions, and defend positions I may take when criticized by others in this forum I will no longer post suggestions. Instead I will sit by and watch the size of the active population of Atys decline.

Can someone tell me how I to unsubscribe my account?

I'm not quite certain why my long posting got edited for "removing personal attacks" since the parts that got removed were not attacks and were, in fact, explicit statements that I was not attacking you, explaining the differences between "trolling" and "being a troll" with literary examples. I hope you got a chance to see them before they were removed.

The thought that forced pvp for a week will attract more players than it will discourage is questionable at best.

In general i dont think the game as a whole (difficulty, pvp system) and especially at this point of time (server...) is very attractive to a larger pvp population.

What i did see working in games with a similar level of grind and , ehm, "polish", is pvp with a gambling aspect, stakes and/or dropping all items on death.
But it is again very uncertain that we would be able to pull this off (extra, special area where you loose all items, certain lack of items worth gambling for...).

first while I myself are to big of a slacker to like the idea an idea is still an idea and everyone is free to propose and get an honest discussion without trolling.

about banaone's idea it think it would be verry hard to make but another small idea would be that ppl that are die hard pvp and would love to see more ppl doing it write out a reward system like if you kill me you get 50k dapper or 100sap crystals and such put it somewhere on the forums if enough ppl would do it then it might be a fun expirement

Don't know why you are blaming the moderator (or at least partially) for your decision. I too got posts removed, and a polite message reminding me of the forum rules.

Anyway had already heard that you were considering leaving the game about a week before this.

If this was Eve-online the post I'm quoting would be removed for discussion of moderation.

eve online??? this is ryzom has nothing to do with eve online or their forum rules.

Well you did not read the message that I received from the moderator ( I would not characterize it as polite), and perhaps you do not mind your posts being censored. I do. Unlike you, I am careful in selecting the words that I choose. Modifying my posts changes and distorts what I have written.

I do not approve nor appreciate having my my post modified. You may not care, I do. You may not care if someone falsely attributes statements to you. I do, and when some falsely claims I made a statement, I want my response left for all to to see.

And as far as my decision to leave the game, I have had post that consisted of simple screenshots removed and censored several weeks ago. That is one of the contributing factors in deciding to leave the game. The scrutinization and reactions to my post borders on the absurd. There is no consistency in the standards applied by the moderators. What one moderator will suggest to you is permissible another one will impose a ban. So removing myself is the most effective way to avoid the aggravation.

I only saw one post from you to which I responded. I don recall seeing your literary examples. Unfortuanately you too have to suffer from having the meaning of your posts distorted by censorship.

If you want you can send me your comments as a private message.

Hello, i been way from ryzom for about 9 months.Still miss it tho tbh but... this game was no chance of going PvP simply cause the 95% of ppl playing just dont want to PvP.Its sad for as that love to PvP but thats the truth.Thats is the main reason i left ryzom.So try to find a way to PvP just like we did after merge (arrange 2v2 3v3 ect) and thats about it imo.Ppl that stay in ryzom are the once that wanna forage/craft and no1 can blame them, PvPers are the minority in this game so its time we reallize it .No1 can forse any1 to do anything.
But i have 1 q for the strict PvEers, wth are u gonna do with sup boosted gear ? kill yubos more faster ?
i get it u love forage craft ( been away 9 months i missed forage and craft tbh :P ) but for what all the effort of getting top mats and crafting them ? u can kill every mob in ryzom with crap gear too

anyways best of wishes on ryzom, hope it will stay alive for many years more, i hate to see my main die cause the game died

Simple answer, Soulflynn, I don't need and don't use and don't want sup boosted gears. Sorry but the fun for me is in getting the mats, period. I am not a care bear, but just because I like my dp served up different does not mean I am a to weak, either. If you want me to try PvP, give me a reason to try.

For lacuna. PvP is something that u like do or don't like to do, i cant give u a reason to like it, its up to u what u ll do with the time u pay to play tha game and i didn't call any1 a care-bear.It was just a simple rhetorical q.I don't care any more who will PvP or not on ryzom.I play a game were its 99% PvP and i love it but Ryzom was my first mmo and it holds a special place to my heart.
From what i see the ppl that say the word PvP are treated with a bit of hostility , like some1 said the F word or something, sometimes i think that Ryzom players see PvP as a threat or something, its just a game get over it.
From me PvP is dead in Ryzom, its a strict forage/craft game and a game with a very friendly community which is a hard think to find on the rest of mmo.

Soulflyn, sorry if I gave you impression that I was accusing you of anything. I rushed the reply and that comment was aimed at to the tone of debate that stereotypes pvp and pve players as such and such.

This thread is about a compulsory event. This is sandbox game and if people want to promote PvP, good on them. But if in doing so they want to appeal to non-pvpers you need to offer something more than a stick.
