As far as i am concerned, the only thing i like about this game is pvp. As such, i make all my ad through farming glory and selling pvp items in ah. Therfore, when they make pvp items bind on pick up, it cuts off my only source income, making the game pointless to play anymore.
What are your thoughts about it making pvp items bind on pickup?

It was also the way people who actually preferred playing PvP could make a meaningful amount of AD. Now people who enjoy PvP won't be able to make a decent amount of AD, and people who hate PvP are forced to play it in order to buy T1 gear just to continue doing dungeons. This combined with the significant nerf to glory gains in PvP just makes the whole thing less fun for everyone involved.
As an aside, I think it's fairly obvious at this point that all the ways the community found to make AD outside of Dailies is going to be stripped away and nerfed. At this point I'm in favor of just throwing the AD/Zen conversion system out, since it serves no purpose if you can't actually earn a meaningful amount of AD. I think players would be a lot happier if they knew that there were things that they can simply not get without paying, rather than this current system where there's this illusion that everything is obtainable. A happier community is a good thing.
Ah, the number one rule of internet discussion. As long as you're dismissive of people who disagree with you, it doesn't really matter if what you're saying makes sense or not. In an MMO, shouldn't everything should be rewarding? Yet, the reasons to doing PvP are quickly dwindling. It's just not worthwhile when every game has at least one leaver, which in turn makes it so that the matches aren't competitive (or fun), which in turn reduces the amount glory for everyone. So the situation is already bad, but there was at least a reason to go through all this, since you knew you could turn that glory into valuable AD on the auction house. Take that away, and what are you left with exactly? Why does the PvP even exist if there's no measures to stop leaving, no ability to earn meaningful currency, and not even a decent reward after playing a match?
What's the point?
Just because another game makes it bop does not mean this game should do so also.
Being able to trade pvp items increases the scope of gameplay for gamers. It allows pvp lovers to focus on pvp instead of doing pve.
Well what is it for then? It certainly isn't for fun with all the bots and afkers.
Speaking of bots, they should not be changing game mechanics to accommodate them. They should be getting rid of the bots.
The fact that some people thinks that the game should accommodate bots just makes lol. Its like saying if you cant solve the problem, just close your eyes and hope its gone the next time you open them.
Having said that I've bought complete sets for all the characters I'll be playing at some point in the future which is all current classes so I'm at least set until a new class is introduced.
Except you can compete it in 2 evenings.
So are you for or against the change? lol
I didn't even realize this. The whole point of reducing glory was to stop people from farming it for AD, but if everything in BoP, then you reduced it for nothing!
Wow. This just gets better and better.
If they make Glory items BoP I assume they would increase the Glory for a loss back to what it was since there is no reason to bot any more......
Ok so let me get this straight, according to your logic, pvp items should be made bound on pick up to get rid of the bots?
If I were a botter, I'd simply upscale the number of bots to compensate for the loss of AD income.
This action will not lessen the bots and afkers, my guess is it will increase it.
And what about ruining the game for those who makes a legit income of ad?
Why should pvp gears be bop from the start? So that everyone is forced to do pve? What about the other way around? Make all pve gears bind on pick up and pvp gears bind on equip.
Well, they could still sell it for gold.
I just find it amusing that there were weeks and weeks of threads almost always 1 or more on the first forum page calling for Bind on Pickup to be instituted. I didn't see any threads during the same time period calling for Bind on Equip to be kept.

I am for the change in general. But ONLY if they set the Glory reward back to what it was. If they leave it at it's currently dismal amount then I'm against it.
Its because people are generally not bothered about replying to a topic, until its an official matter, meaning the devs have commented on it.
The players of today are just lazy, you want everything for nothing.
Put the effort in to get a reward, not just go jump on the AH and buy it.
How the heck is that challenging?
Pvp and pve is already a joke, because you wear pve gear to pvp in.
The stats should be slightly diff on pvp gear so it's more worthwhile to wear it for pvp and HAMSTER for pve.
