Ok, i have come here with nostalga from the live servers and i understand it cant be the same. The main focus for me is the ORVR! it was epic fights, massive battles, T1 on this server is great fun... and then i dinged 16..
I go to T2 ORVR and i have premade 6 man lvl 40 max geared players ganking me constantly.. Oh im bolstered... yet i dont have 4 tactic points.... i dont have max master abilites.. bolster doesnt bolster crit chances or dodge chances so as a lvl 16 player i get 2-3 shot by lvl 40 chars.. whats the point?

Nostalgia is a dangerous thing.
Check your gear. If you're R16 and wearing R16 gear with talismans slotted and potions increasing your stats, those max-rank uber 40's are going to have a much harder time. If you're still using the T1 set and T1 scen weapons, they're going to smash.
Bolster does not equal free farming people who invested time into their characters, it just means you have a chance to do RvR throughout leveling instead of being relegated to PvE grinding and a scen pop every hour or so if you're lucky.

i am lvl16 rr24 wearing max t1 inf armour... so im expected to buy or make potions to make it harder for max rank twinks to kill me??? have you ever played WoW?? if you have you know how much a twink reks faces compared to a novice... how is this fair?
I dont want to farm people.. i am being farmed i want t1 action in t2 but who in there right mind is going to play t2 at the correct rank with max geared players farming them!?

That 6 man gank team will still be sending your arse when you hit 40, it's what gank teams do.
Same as the twinks back on live.

Join a pug WB, stay with the pack. Gank teams target afks on bos and avoid the WB's

but im not 40, they are.. this server has given max rank players the ability to screw over lowbies for fun.. no skill involved!! i cant 1v1 a WE when im 16 and they are maxed out.. its not even close.. i can kill a WE equal to me skill and lvl wise and its a damn good fight if they are better skilled than me. Its literally no fun fighting rank 40's at rank 16.. bolster does nothing to help you

You can join open WB, leech, run around, and quickly gain access to medallions/influence rewards.

Not just leech, bolster comes into it's own in a WB, dps aoe and healing is very effective. Sure TUP and the like will melt you but you can apply real pressure in the zerg.
The small gank teams will screw anybody over on thier own rank 16 or rank 40
