I say again, without the higher level (beyond 12) players out there demonstrating the benefits of paying, there's less incentive for newbies to pay.



Wow. A "secret friends club". I've always hated this mentality. There's nothing truly different about these "members only" servers. Thus, there's no real benefit apparent to the free members. They already get penalized with level caps, half their experience taken from kills, and having to wait to get on servers as it is.



How do you know this? Simply because the IDEA is simple, the IMPLEMENTATION isn't necessarily so.



Sure. But what about lag introduced by other members?

"Less" doesn't automatically mean an acceptable level.




Since they can't hurt you, why do you care?



I'd actually like to see an option that just lets you auto-ignore friends requests.



Again, since they can't hurt you, who cares?
There would be less people on the UA only server which doesn't go by lvl but amount of people adding up the lag.

It's just annoying when your sailing to plunder or for other reasons and you have some little light sloop on your tail the entire sailing session.

An auto-ignore friend/crew invite would be nice.

What if your in a conversation with a guildmate or recruiting for a boss battle? It's very annoying to me when I see lower lvls who don't have anything better to do than listen in on other people's conversations that don't really require whisper or acting like they are part of the boss battle crew asking all the time "are we going now?"
