Yes, only because of the endless amount of crying it has caused.
I think it's kind of moronic. Anytime I've wanted to murder my own faction, it's definitely NOT been on Timeless Isle.
That said, it lets people who think ganking/griefing is PVP get their fix in a place where they're fairly easy to get away from, so, have at it.
I will approve of the item when it's no longer PvE-players dominating the scene.
No, it just the only reason PvP servers exist. If you hate unfair PvP, or you don't feel like you're good enough to outplay somebody who attacks you with a wetnoodle elite attacking you, might I suggest a PvE server? You're essentially claiming that the one defining aspect of PvP servers is bad or wrong.
I think it's great. I've never used it (and probably won't), but I like killing censers almost more than I like killing Alliance. And I REALLY like killing Alliance.
People wanted world pvp and they got it.
Censor users should be hostile to other censor users, only make them friendly if they're grouped together. Dont give the item a CD, don't make it drop you to 10% HP either. The way it currently works almost enforced you to prey on low geared people and stay away from places where alot of people farm. If I wanna play basketball I'd rather play against other adults, not a bunch of toddlers. It's the same in WoW, most geared people actually have censor enabled these days. When I go to Isle all I can occasionally kill is a low geared person who is either alliance, or a Horde who'll start QQing. People who use censor are obviously people who wanna PvP, why they made all censor users friendly to eachother is really beyond me.
Between the Censor complaints and the recent random BG queue issues, this community has taught me that there is apparently a monumental difference between killing someone with a blue icon next to his name and killing someone with a red icon next to his name.
For their own sakes I hope these people never take an interest in Rated BGs. They might have an aneurism.
A group trying to 5 man a world boss?

Scummy item.
I rolled on a PVP server. Sometimes someone kills you and it doesn't matter if its horde or ally.
If you don't like being ganked on a PVP server, transfer your toon.
You can't be killed like this on a PVE server unless flagged. If you don't like it, either don't get flagged or don't go island. Its a big world.
J.
It needs a better implementation, such as the ability to create separate factions. Instead of Horde, Alliance and Censer, it could be Horde, Alliance, Censer, Guild 1, Guild 2, Party 1, etc.
More player-made factions would be the icing on the cake. I like the idea behind Censer, but I think it was just poorly implemented.
No, most of the people complaining aren't interested in PVP at all, or at least not world pvp. They moved to the realm because they knew people there or that it had a very high population, which many PVP servers for horde EU has at least. More people makes for a better mmorpg experience, but not with PVP in mind.

I never pvp, but whenever I see a censure-player, I attack him if I feel that I can win. I never attack alliance though. They are so few in numbers and are just trying to get by, awww, I feel sorry for them.
Mother pus bucket!
Well, why would anyone do that? I don't care about fair. I only care about killing alliance. And it might be a horde thing, but outside of city raids, Horde always seemed to come throw down when shit is happening than the Alliance. My serving sample is low, only had brief periods when I was playing on Alliance toons.
I don't attack people in World PVP because it's cheap. Whether this is 'Warcraft' or not, I'd rather get on with my day than run around bothering people just to get my jollies. PVP server or PVE server, I don't care. If someone had told me at some point that Blizzard would introduce a same-faction-PVP option for people to take advantage of before this even existed, I'd have said it's the dumbest thing ever. Whether it addresses 'faction imbalance' or not.
Want faction balance? Make Timeless Isle a CRZ between two imbalanced servers and allow multiple instances of the same area. It's not impossible to achieve considering Ashran is just that. The same way they didn't foresee swoop n ganks when flying released, they didn't expect this to be an issue for people. It's just bad judgment.
People trying to justify it don't know good PVP. It's generally consensual and involves large numbers of opposite factions attacking each other. Not some moron who gets happy off seeing how upset people get when he attacks them whilst they're trying to play the game they enjoy in their own way without adversely impacting someone else.
