Anyways just add some more concise information, and may become extremely useful, when the bias is lowered to a minumum. Maybe find three people who are either nuetral, pro and against rushing to get a good mix and feel of it. I don't pvp much and so doesn't bug me either way, as long as everyone is having fun. Thanks for the post(s)
    Thanks for the opinion Jeff! I must say I'm quite shocked that you should say it's biased. Especially considering that I, myself, cannot really decide which opinion is right. Anyways, the reasons I divided it I to five sections is because I originally thought my post was going to be much longer. I wrote this all in the iPad app "notes." Believe me. It looked much longer. Lol anyways, if I'd have known it was so short I wouldn't have separated it like that.

    Pvp back in the day used to be the main factor in why i used to come on and play pocket legends. Player vs. Player used to be so fun, the excitement of having 3v3 matches that would go by quick not having to wait 20 minutes to finish one match and wait 30 seconds or more to wait for the other players buff to come back. I don't know a single mmorpg that has this problem. Everyone just deal with it. There was a time when pvp used to be straight up ffa. And this constant complaining about it just gives me a headache.

    No please, seriously give me another popular mmorpg with this problem of "rushing" and ffa. This is absoluteness ridiculous people need to learn to not complain and deal with it. I'm fine with talking and maybe having 1v1's but every single match you go in people complain when you do ffa or rush.

    Actually, buddy, did you know that you're complaining about people complaining? That's kinda ironic if you ask me.

    For all of you who think constant FFA is the route to take, I want you all to participate in a low level game with Gundamsone. If he uses full on cheap tactics, you will rage quit. If everyone just rushed senselessly then there would be no way to combat these cheap tactics. Teaming them out of PvP is the easiest and most effective solution. Ever been rush booted before? Here's how it goes. You join my game. I set my quickchat to say "/boot (whatever your name is) gf nub". Then I rush you and press my quick chat. If I do this at rockwall forts, you can't fight back. What can you do about it? Team me later. How will you team me if my teammates are all mindlessly FFAing? You won't.

    Next scenario: You're in low level PvP. A fairly smart player makes a bird with a name like wmwmwmwvvmwmwm and joins your game. Using the most OP weapon-class combination to date, that bird can kill you over and over without worry of being booted. What can you do? Well, you could team them. Oh wait, their whole team is using cheap tactics as well. What a pity.

    It goes on and on, endless amounts of tactics that shouldn't be allowed. You may think that silly rules such as "say go" made up by some random player isn't a rule you need to follow, but players made the rule and they will punish those who break it with what little power they have (teaming).

    Let us not forget that, regardless of the origin of 1v1, it still exists. I addressed that in my thread

    I like rushing cuz I love adding deaths to twink's kd. And then leaving when they are about to hit me after running the whole map.
    Then i come back and taunt them and spam them.
