Very Important PVP Thread, All Take a Look

There are many achievement oriented people that play MMORPGs, and that is precisely who the Honor system is attempting to hook into participating. Just as the game itself is potentially psychologically addicting (just like a gambler’s addiction, which is very real), the Honor system is even more so. The need to get to that next hurdle or accomplishment to prove to oneself that one is progressing can be extremely strong. This type of compulsion will not show up in everyone, but that is simply due to the fact that every person is different. What affects one person mentally is not guaranteed to work on another. This can lead to decisions that adversely affect the self, just like a gambling addict that sells his car for money to take to a casino.

Friends and strangers, fellow gamers, please take a look at this thread. It is writen by a Paladin named Grantham on the server Argent Dawn who has achieved Grand Marshal PVP status. His story is one I believe anybody that wishes to take place in PVP should hear. It is a warning to what you will experience and get into and what it has the possibility to do to you ultimately. Learn from his experience.
