---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In large scale PvP or any PvP in a contested raid zone, a force may call Force LNS at their bind(s) after they have died. They are then locked out of the contested zone(s) and any adjacent zone(s) for 1-2 hours. After that initial lock out, they may then zone in, gather their corpse(s), and then leave. They are then locked out from the contested zone(s) and any adjacent zones for 1-2 hours. Their lock out timer begins when all members of the force have left those zones. The lock out timer may also end if/when the opposing force also leaves those zones. The opposing(winning) force may dictate up to one zone adjacent to the lock out zones that you may not move into. If you are in the same guild as someone who is on Force LNS, you are also considered to share the same lock outs as them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

this addresses the current issues of there being basically no risk/punishment for losing raid PvP and also the issue of forward LNSing

examples:

if you call force LNS in sebilis, you are then locked out of sebilis and trakanon's teeth

if you call force LNS in skyfire, you are then locked out of skyfire, veeshan's peak, overthere, and burning woods

if you call force LNS in kael, you are then locked out of kael, eastern wastes, and wakening land. the winning force can then dictate that you are not allowed to move into skyshrine

pls give feedback
It'd take some more thinking/ looking into, but this is one of the reasonable suggestions. Would have to see what adjacent zone lockouts would cause shenanigans. The primary issue I have is enforcing the initial lockout. People that are bound in a locked zone, or claim to be bound in the locked zone is the first that comes to mind.

I'm still not sold that there needs to be more of a penalty to the loser besides losing whatever they were fighting for.
