Sure. At least then we could knock the trolls down/pull them off.

Yeah, how dare A-net implement something purely for fun while you wait in que that has anything but a flat surface, shame on them.

I don't get how having fun is trolling?

I personally like the random elements of those pillars and the people on them... Either you're healing people or being healed, just like a normal PvP match.

 

If anyone trolls that arena, it's the people who stand in a group that complain when you AoE bomb them...
