Not at all - you have to post builds with proper readable formatting (ie: GWFreaks/GWBBCode), but builds aren't going to be locked unless they're really amazingly atrociously bad.

Really necessary to have an alliance battle area? It's often considered less competitive than RA...

I agree, especially since Nightfall's release. ABs are pretty much dead.

No, you just aren't allowed to post pure crap.

It's a formality.

agreed. It will never happen, though.

I still can't believe Anet is offering cash prizes for hero battles...

Alliance Battles would be the leetest things ever if they allowed you to go in with 12-man groups (or maybe at least be able to coordinate 3 4-man groups to reduce the effectiveness of HP and stuff) and they implemented a matchmaking system for it. Can you imagine the possibilities if you had two 12-man guild groups in that thing duking it out? Can you imagine the strategies and skills of something like EviL vs WM in AB?

Would give a bit more exposure but I need to keep a balance and yet seperate PvP and PvE presence on the site. If you have further suggestions, organization, we are open to hearing them. Also, any ideas to improve or highlight PvP more would be excellent as well.
Yeah, do that. Giving gladiator's forum its own top level forum would make sense. It is like nothing else in hall of knowledge. Other than that, just let JR do his thing.

Don't make him break out the images with text on them.

Nurse got offered the position for numerous reasons:

1) She is awesome.
2) Everyone else sucks.

Agreed entirely on every point. I hope you are reading this Inde.

No, I'm sure that there would be a couple assassin primaries in there.

But you have to admit, that would be fun as hell to watch. People teleporting everywhere, noone knowing what's going on, like imagine 2 teleways facing each other, except.... more.

You have to offer 100 grand for them to do it; however, yes, it would be a lot of fun. I'd totally join a hardcore AB guild if they made it not suck.

Speaking of that, why isn't there a presearing build section? After all, you have to do some PvP when you leave for post!
