<p>Well I tested on the Docks of BBM to see if my macro to cancel my flying mount would still work. Guess what it does and of course Ragnerok is still using that exploit to drop in death from above. I sent in feed back on it as soon as I tested it and I set in a petition about it</p>

And so what? Remove flying mounts from Nagafen already.

The only ones complaining now are the hovering fame huggers who fly around in immunity and only land for easy kills. That's why a lot are saying to remove them instead of enabling all abilities while flying which would be a much better solution. I would even go one further and say add weapons to them to make dogfights a new form of pvp.</p>

<p>Instead of removing them from Nag, why not just get a message similar to "You may not engage this player while mounted or in the air". That way, if you want to engage another player, you have to land and dismount before you can attack...finish the fight, mount back up and fly away. The mounted player being attacked still has a 50% chance of being grounded and being dismounted and a 50% chance to escape...just an idea.</p>

Make newbie zones have city PvP rules</span></p><p><span style="color: #ff6600;">2.) Remove legacy server lifeblood by forcing all trials to EQ2X</span></p><p><span style="color: #ff6600;">3.)

<p>And Seliri, shut up. People like you are ruining PvP more than any mount ever could. There could be a mount that made you immune to all attacks as soon as you got on in and it still wouldn't cripple PvP as much as all you dumbasses that think your title is an indication of anything other than how many times you've evac'd from anything but a guaranteed victory.</p><p>You're a scrub and that title of yours(which you probably bought) isn't fooling anybody except you. If it makes you feel any better I find somebody with a Q toon to give my hunter title away as soon as I get it. Think of all that fame I'm just giving away so it can't go to you or any of your boyfriends that evac at the first sign of trouble. If you weren't such a [Removed for Content] it could have been yours when you won an evenly matched fight.</p>
