10k pvp kills = Warmonger; 10k flags = None?

Flagging is extremely boring imho. I have all the other aps. Tried to start flagging, but i just stopped at less than 20 flags. It is really not fun for me personally. And imo a game is supposed to be fun and not feel like hard unpleasant work.

Being the "best" at anything usually requires hard work, even if it is a game. You do NOT need to do flagging to play the game and have fun. If you want to be among the leaderboard "Top Players", then you do need to do some hard work. I don't see anything wrong with that.

There is a fine line between reasonable and impossible and STS blindly set the parameter past that line.

Lets say each flag takes about a minute to acheive (average). That's 10,000 minutes. 166 hrs 40mins of purely running back and forth, and that's not taking into account breaks or match ends. If you spend 2 hrs a day flagging, you'd be done in 83 days. 2hours plus break time, plus attackers, plus other flaggers plus waiting for matches to begin can easily make that into an additional 2-3 hours of effort for the same amount of flags each day. Not only this, but I know of a particular flagger who was ridiculed for constantly ending the ctf killers' and dummy farmers' games prematurely and was harrassed by many guilds.

There's a reason why many players have every AP except for the flag AP. It's boring, repetitive, and a waste of time.

this is like asking for a title for running Brackenridge 10,000 times. Ridiculous achievement

Lol@us flaggers.

This is what has completely ruined CTF. And you want to screw it up further...? The point of CTF is to CAPTURE THE FLAG. The only reason you would grab the flag would be to win the game, not to further your own KDR. The addition of APs and flag LBs was a very shortsighted move and has basically killed CTF. Go try out CTF in any other game & compare it with this.

This is why a wins/losses kdr is sooo needed.

Yes! you have a good point! Wouldnt it be wonderful if sts just ADD another column of kdr for ctf wins/losses? And whoever leaves ctf without ending it will receive a 1 point of lose?
Like once youve entered theres no turning back.

* In this way, whoever enters the pvp when it started are forced to compete with the opposite team to flag to 5.
* Plus this is a great idea to eliminate blockers in CTF cause if he's blocking a spot then it would mean that hes with his enemies now.
* PLUS to those who really hates flagging will be forced to flag too! that would give a sense to CTF!; to capture the flag! not just the kills!!!

- Flag hero
- King
- Runner
- Connected
- Captured
Haha anyone agree ?
