Data that contradicts an unverified assertion must be discredited- truthiness 101

6 years was a good run.
Too good.
Now we all know the game, even the devs.

Well, the people-bots will occasionally stop to send an angry whisper or such.
The bot-peoples tend to have a rigid routine.
But you could be right, it may just be the less creative types <,<

It's near a bogeyman at this point. While a big guild might make a splash, the tsunami of single pugs following has always been the quiet killer.

It's that or Comcast, and not good Comcast. <,<
Our county is a public service monopoly. And I bought our house in 2008 so like, if global warming sets Texas on fire I _might_ be able to move without losing too much.. Eventually lol

NA didn't get into that stuff as much as EU. The general opinion over here was "but, we could just fight for real"

Ah, you're one of BG's many retirees then.

Public leaderboards also say Strike Force is the best guild ever to play.
Take from it what you will

Pre pof 2/5 of every blob was guardians, half of every guild was guardians.
Mr. Math says it's likely they'd place high just from the law of averages

BG didn't mass push like SoR did, I'd blame that unless you're feeling masochistic

Well, for that matter Gaile also "communicated in the threads".. Just not here, she mostly stuck to getting her behind smooched in general discussion. The WvW section on the other hand is reliably devoid of dev participation both historically and currently.
Doing the same thing over and over but expecting a different result.. It's a sign of something

The staff only grazed the front of the blob. Whole zergs would run over a well. At least in TW, all the leading kills were necro and ele players

Necros can stack up the tags at 2x the rate lootstickers could.

Whole game chokes up at pve reset. I've even noticed it in my guild hall, alone. Seems when people log in for dailies it chokes the whole game up.. I suspect it's a access limit from aws, likely money related.

Which means you want to flip the structure back and forth more often. And you stated that: "I for one do not enjoy long fights in garrisons". you only like fights that have a back and forth swap. Because you don't like combat for combat, you want a short combat with a structure flip, and then a defense with a structure flip, this is called cap trading in ktraining. In other words, fights are ok, so long as they don't last long enough to get in the way of the reward.

Which is not the case in a high-tier garrison as soon as the attackers win, because that causes a long "cooldown" for such a battle, as the incentive for attacking the garrison is largely gone. The idea of having extended intense battles is independent of where it takes place. Could happen in the ruins for all I care.
> > > >
> > >
> > > That is how things were however. Once capped the fights didn't stop, the attacking server if they capped, right away started sweeping for mesmers, in most cases after a flip, the other server, in full was back on inner fighting again in minutes, because once the fight started to turn, most of the mes of the defending server bailed out of the fight to hide, so it was a rush to find them before they could port everyone back in...However that slows down the ktrain, so anet added marked after a structure is flipped, yet another passive added to make people not care and not invested.
> > >
> > > Assuming all mes were found and killed before they could port people in, the other zerg was already back banging on the wall/gate, and you had a constant defense of the Garri/keep, it would go on for hours after flipping of close calls pushing off the other servers attacks, roamers scrambling everywhere to cap camps and escort yaks to get supply in etc etc. And one of the larger changes from back then is people pushed OUT, letting a zerg into outer or inner was not a thing, because if you wanted to hold, supply was so short you could not afford to instantly rebuild a wall to 100% each time, you had to be proactive and push them off.
> > >
> > > Capping something, as someone else said above, was huge deal, and if you were in voice coms people actually cheered, so once something was taken, people wanted to hold onto it, not just move on right away to something else. And the home server also wanted it back because if allowed to upgrade it was just as hard to get back, and losing something that people invested time and personal gold into upgrading wanted it back.

And could be sped up with boons. But the sheer amount of emotional trauma inflicted on ignorant newbies (for taking supply or doing the wrong upgrade) was a touch unhealthy, even by my standards.

I dislike that they made my pve setup more ponderous to access
But I love all the opportunities to make fun presented by the build-obsessed disliking the feature so strongly.
So firmly meh

Some remember epic battles

(Or is that even more sarcasm?) Someone said Piken is among the fullest servers. Someone else asked what data they are going off. I showed the only data that is to my knowledge available to players. Unless there is other data openly available or someone has insider information directly from one of the devs, everything beyond that is simple speculation, no matter how some players "feel" the charts must be wrong.
I was agreeing with you.
Truthiness is a Stephen Colbert joke, I suppose he doesn't make it over there as he mostly pokes fun at American politics.
