You guys know that isn't true Tune. If someone genuinely new to Red decides to give it a shot. Is having fun (albeit ungeared besides maybe some cloth or a few hand outs here and there) and manages to get to MM or Unrest.
Then they get completely wrecked by a twinked out guy that knows how to handle himself - it's demoralizing and was a huge complaint by most new players I had helped. Chances are they will quit because they see it as a fight they can't win - and they literally can't. If you don't have gear in the 20-30s against someone who does - you aren't going to be able to win.
If we wanted a good community and to let people flower and grow (sorry gardening on my mind right now - damn poison ivy, too) we should have some guidelines to prevent said grief from happening.
It was literally the top complaint from Blue players that I encountered. I made twinked out pvp chars just to defend them in MM and shit. It worked sometimes but a lot of the time I wasn't on enough to help.
