When will Test Copy become PvE again?

[Kithica]

<p>And when will /testcopy start working again? or will that be the same thing?</p>

[Rhak]

<p>/testcopy works for me. I've dumped a few clones of myself over to work on building a Halas house.</p><p>But yes, I'd love for TestCopy to get off of PvP - I'm tired of not being able to use my custom global channels while building there.</p>

[Gladiolus]

<p>Copying my characters still works but it's still PvP so half of them are unguilded and none of them are inclined to do anything there.</p>

[Maroger]

<p>I have characters over there but will NOT play untill they revert back to PVE - this over-emphais on PVP is not appreciated.</p><p>The BG's are the problem and the reason PVE is getting ignored.</p>

<p><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #cc99ff; font-size: small;">Yeah there were dedicated servers for PvP and I sure wish they would quit trying to be "other" games pushing PvP down our throats and ruining our PvE game.  If I wanted PvP I'd be playing Aion and if I wanted BGs I'd be playing WarHammer.  Come on guys, and be your own game.  If we wanted PvP we would be on those servers.</span></p>

<p>Yeah, change it back, it isn't like PvP issues need to be tested or anything. Obviously PvE is the only game play style that actually matters, y'know?</p><p>In all honesty, both PvE and PvP should get equal time on the test server. PvP players do need to have their content tested just as much as PvE players. Furthermore, aside from some issues with faction (which can be fixed via petition as I understand it or by the hosting dev if you want to test a raid or group zone) the only thing stopping you from testing PvE issues is your pride (as in the self-righteous refusal to do anything if PvP may possibly be involved).</p>

The test servers are there for testing, just because you do not like what is being tested does not mean that it needs to be tested any less.</p>

You are entitled to have PVP tested but not to the exclusion of PVE which composes the bulk of the players.</p>

<p>Please revert this back to to PVE - this is rediculous - we can't even invite our guildmates to guild/group/raid. How are we supposed to test content when we can't even talk to each other and form up.  The battlefields are already live, so it would be very much appreciated if we could get rid of the pvp restrictrictions to allow us to actually test PVE.</p>

But I'm in the "revert it back to PvE" group now. I'm trying to test Tinkerfest and now the griefers are just slaughtering people checking out the merchants.</p><p>Of course I was ridiculed for mentioning to people to lay off please on 1-9, saying that they play Test Copy for fun. I'm sure I'll be ridiculed here too, but I'm sorry, when I login to Copy, it's for <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>testing</strong></span>.</p>
