K... the people this was directed at, encouraged others to fly as CR. Where does that leave your statement there?
Yea, I agree this feels a bit rushed, and maybe unnecessarily so. Apparently there have been times on both ends where both sides felt they were outnumbered by the other. However, there also seems to be a mentality on one side of "the red no point flying if we'll be outnumbered by 8 people".
Now, imagine if you had 12 people with that mentality and you can see a clear problem created by the very people who would otherwise go for it. Not saying that is the case here, but it is something to consider and is why those in the [HF] are generally encouraged to fly even if it results in us being ganked or just losing to numbers, skill, or both.
Overall, I would likely rather have this idea refined a bit more before giving it story/rp implications -- but that said, I think a few of the reactions here are a little misguided or make assumptions that shouldn't be made.
Encouraging someone to fly the losing side doesn't automatically mean you want to actually be fair. It can also mean you just want to make the event balance look less bad, and make yourself look less bad. How naive are you? If they had any interest in being fair, they wouldn't have made the larger mob decide the way the mod goes, and they wouldn't have posted the hypocritical things I quoted.
