and pray tell what is going to stop the potential of multiple voting blocs similar to WALL from happening? Nothing but region's interests inn being more involved inn the WA. As it is now, I have heard of 3 to 4 possible blocs forming. I imagine a UCR bloc that can't get anywhere near WALL or larger UCR blocs ability, would just recruit in more smaller regions to make up for it.
Though I can't see really much more than 3 or 4 (including WALL) being very successful, but it's entirely possible and would cause ramifications in the WA. Sometimes, things change. You have to adapt. Gameplay has been doing exactly that for a long time. For better and worse.
And for the WA, this idea would definitely be for worse. Voting blocs are already such an insurmountable problem that WA players have been forced to either join those voting blocs or make new ones to rival them. The damage to the WA of a bloc 5-10 times the size of WALL would be indescribable.
What compromises and ideas can GA and SC regulars think of that may make Koth's proposal more balanced or at least more easier to stomach for those who dominate their time in those sections of NS? Maybe there is none, maybe some people just will outright not accept anything, or maybe there is something that can be agreed on.
I'm not interested in a "compromise" when the WA already has to kiss the boot of the gameplay community to get anything done. Honestly, we need less gameplay influence over the WA (at least the GA), not less.
Sometimes we need some change, and additionally, this would probably take a good time to even implement. At least come up with some constructive help or some constructive criticism rather than "if it effects the WA at all noooooo!".
Here's my constructive criticism: this sounds like an interesting idea for gameplay. Leave the WA out of this. The WA community has already made too many sacrifices to gameplay. Get rid of the faction leader's additional WA votes and we won't have a problem. Don't get rid of them and I will fight this with my dying breath.
