Get over it, already...

Nevrax made a new zone. It caters to those of us who enjoy PVP and conflict. I participated for several hours yesterday and today and never once saw anybody shouting "owned" or "ganked" in region. Surprisingly, I saw several folks who have consistently badmouthed PVP actually participating, not to mention having a good time of it! The only complaint I heard was from Baxter who was good enough to roleplay it.
You all (anti-pvp folks) complained that you were getting killed in the Prime Root. Nevrax made a new zone dedicated almost entirely to faction-based PVP. You now complain that it's not fair because you don't want to fight. Suck it up and go dig in PR. It should be much safer now that folks are otherwise engaged.
I think you're all just disappointed to be proven wrong, yet again. After seeing hundreds of players in Aelius Dunes engaging in PVP, I can safely say that I was right on numerous occasions in saying that web polls do not make an accurate representation of player opinions. The majority of the population does NOT believe that PVP is wrong. The majority of the population wants to see something more interesting and they are having a great time. The majority tend to play the game more than they read and post in the official forums.
To sum up, if you do not like PVP that is absolutely fine. You have been given every opportunity to avoid the conflict in any number of regions. Go have fun, play with Yubos, and dig to your heart's content. You want non-PVP content? Almost every bit of content up until this point has been non-PVP oriented. Aside from the occassional gladiator event, this is the very first PVP oriented content to hit Atys since the implementation of open PVP in the Prime Root.
