The competitive nature of most people won't allow them to purposely gimp themselves if everyone else isn't also affected. People aren't happy to do things at their own speed if it means others are progressing faster.

Again.....this is not a problem of the game. Its a problem with the mindset of the player and the size of their e-peen. The option to progress slowly, grind and farm is 100% there. Just because the quick and easy route is an option there, doesn't mean you have to use it. And the majority of these people complaining about it have already reached endgame levels. And have the endgame gear. Why not make an alt and do it slow? Its already been done once, if you want to feel big, get on your main. If you want to level old-school, get on your alt.
There's no point to making a seperate server for what is fully available here already.

Most people don't get that PW is a chinese developed and managed game. Most chinese MMOs are based around hours of grinding and farming. So as we are now playing on american servers, people here don't like the same playstyle as Chinese people do. We simply don't have the time to grind for hours. That is the reason why PWI implemented packs, hypers and similar things. We have no patience to farm, so we buy stuff that makes us level faster or gives us profit. To be honest "Old school" servers would not fit us.

I just said all that, but I am by no means a proponent of R9, Hypers or powerleveling.

There are so many "flaws"/"problems" with having your wish come true (the list is long). But in the end all you can do is wish, Pwi will not provide it.

BS. How you want to farm rank 9? It would take 100 years to get only chips.

That would be the point. Gear like that is something only a very few people should ever be able to get. It should be "OMG that person has rank 9!" when no one else on the server does because its so darn hard to actually get it.

Make rep badges only available from monsters/ingame quests like they used to be. Make rank gear mean something again.
