Q u o t e:
The preview mentions that you get honor equivalent to the amount of resources your side collects with 2000 being the winner.

What is being done to prevent people from joining the battleground and simply standing around (or even going afk), not helping the battle, and simply accumulating honor for the work that the others on the team are putting in?

Yes, i know about the /afk safeguards, but what's to say i can't just come back every 4-5 minutes and hit the spacebar while i stand in place at the entrance to the zone and get free honor?


As a 15 on 15 Battleground with a decent amount of ground to cover, individual contribution is far higher and more necessary. If you're not contributing, odds are your team isn't winning. :P

Q u o t e:
Welcome to last week.


Hmm, last week looks a lot like this week, particularly regarding the Arathi Basin preview.

We hadn't really done a forum sticky for these, and many missed them the first time around, so I decided to sticky all three and note that they were coming in 1.7. Some folks were unsure on that score.

   Patch Notes won't come until the test realm does -- that's how it's worked in the past, and the system still holds true.

As for the population issue: I've said time and again that the Battleground incentive system is going in with this patch as well, which should address the problem of people being "spread out".
